The birth of the new millennium saw a sea-change in alt-science, as the community migrated from a rag-tag collection of annual conferences to the easy accessibility of Yahoo Groups and a few notable mailing-lists. These forums in many ways helped define American Antigravity, and thus it's worth listing our participation in the key groups that defined the open-source Antigravity movement...

Does this year mark the end of Open-Source Antigravity? It's one thing to talk about how quiet the newsgroups have been, but quite another to quantify it. This comprehensive analysis of Yahoo newsgroup trends follows the activity and enrollment of several Yahoo Newsgroups between 1998 and 2006 to provide you with insight into the trends that drive the online community.
Engineering Wormholes

Wormholes offer an opportunity to connect distant points in space, bypassing the need for FTL propulsion. Assuming that anticipated advances in science give us the ability to generate and control wormholes, this article explores the likely path of development for this speculative technology, presenting avenues for major advances from communications to even interstellar colonization...

Methane Ice... it doesn't sound so bad, but there's enough of it trapped under the polar caps to suffocate every man, woman, and child on Earth...and the caps are melting. This is just one of five scenarios that require a new type of high-priority environmental task-force to combat -- a proposal for what I call "The Brooklyn Project"...
The De Aquino ELF Gravitational Shield

It should have been an open and shut case. System-H had at one time promised to be potentially the biggest breakthrough in history -- a gravitational shield capable of lifting hundreds of pounds of weight using little more power than a common household appliance. Welcome to the story of System-H, the mystery of an experiment that remains unresolved to this day...

During the course of researching his best-selling book, "The Hunt for Zero Point", Nick Cook stumbled upon World War II era evidence for a secret Nazi Weapon that came to be known as the "Nazi Bell" device. It has been speculated that the Bell device was designed to use high-speed counter-rotating components energized by electromagnetic energy to induce "torsion" effects and thus control gravity...

In late 2003, Bob Lazar recruited me to work on a top-secret propulsion project at Sandia National Labs that probably never existed. Lazar speaks believably, and if it wasn't for the story itself, I never would have questioned his veracity. Two years later I still don't have the answers, but I've got a lot of questions -- and the biggest is who let him work at Sandia in the first place?
