they've already tested it and know how it works and that it does, there have been multiple tests done on it months ago, im not gonna bother to post those because you can easily find them for yourself, theres even a thread on mc about it.

Let me restate that just for you.

Warp drive wood allow more rapid exit from a country, that considers tuberculous a means of weight reduction.

They've shown it might be able to bend light a bit. That doesn't make it a warp drive.

NO They did not! The micro newtons claimed turned out to be Noise
Exactly like the same claims about energy produced with cold fusion. It was just Noise

It would still take you 15 minutes to drive to Panera bread, at any rate.

The "EM drive" currently defies the laws of physics. They're saying it should work in space, they're not certain yet.

Actually they know it works for a fact, they just don't know why it works because according to current models in Physics, it shouldn't

Also i thought a British person invented it OP

Syntax replied with this 11 years ago, 22 minutes later, 3 hours after the original post[^] [v] #552,571

This is the most up 2date news on the British invention published Yesterday.

Grrrrr weird that I cannot show the link so

Look up New Test Suggests NASA's "Impossible" EM Drive Will Work In Space

Again so far - Measurements are in the noise level and the reported propulsion by the inventor is that equal to moving a feather just a bit. ''Except the inventor makes it clear that the engine must first be set in motion in space by some other propulsion.

Paul March, an engineer at NASA Eagleworks, recently reported in NASASpaceFlight.com’s forum (on a thread now over 500,000 views) that NASA has successfully tested their EM Drive in a hard vacuum – the first time any organization has reported such a successful test.

To this end, NASA Eagleworks has now nullified the prevailing hypothesis that thrust measurements were due to thermal convection.
After consistent reports of thrust measurements from EM Drive experiments in the US, UK, and China – at thrust levels several thousand times in excess of a photon rocket, and now under hard vacuum conditions – the question of where the thrust is coming from deserves serious inquiry.
Progress Update:

On April 5, 2015, Paul March reported at NASAspaceflight.com’s Forum that Dr. White and Dr. Jerry Vera at NASA Eagleworks have just created a new computational code that models the EM Drive’s thrust as a three-dimensional magnetohydrodynamic flow of electron-positron virtual particles.


From your link. it may not be a warp drive, but it appears to be a functional sci-fi engine.
but not only that but the "it might be generating a warp field" theory is a newer hypothesis, that doesn't mean it has more basis in fact, but still it goes to show how interesting this apparently real phenomenon is that it's giving scientists a run for their money. Sure, keep removing external factors from the experiment, make sure it's NOT noise of some kind. because if it isn't then we're looking at something potentially revolutionary.

> because if it isn't then we're looking at something potentially revolutionary.

I am ready to place a bet. If in fact something is happening then its a 3rd or 5th etc effect - Ending up with Kilowatts of power to move something that weighs a gram just a bit.

Bouncing Electromagnetic E I fields around in a closed container which is wots going on - Also when I dug in2 the net to discover more - Lots of lab experiments were using plain old Microwave ovens to provide the excitation.

Not putting down 3rd/5th order effects because many sensors exploit such physics effects.

rejected? you'd make a terrible scientist. There is some apparent effect going on and you're going to dismiss it before anything is even conclusive. That's super close-minded. Skepticism is fine, but outright dismissal is absurd.

I'm sure at some point someone said, "giant chinese fire-crackers to the moon? are you insane? they're full of gunpowder."
but, lo and behold, a couple of generations of engineering and discovery and now the most advanced vehicles on earth are based on the same principle as chinese fireworks.

edit: also i understand how impossible this all is, which means it's even more important the effect be disproved. If it IS real then it's going to possibly lead to a deeper understanding of physics, if not, then nothing was lost. but you can't just outright dismiss something especially if NASA isn't willing to dismiss it yet.

i get it that you're an expert in your field and know a lot about EM stuff, but issac newton was an expert in his field too, and he couldn't think outside the box enough to solve the orbital problems that Relativity solves. relativity isn't intuitive like classical rules of motion, and this apparent effect from the EMdrive could potentially be doing something unintuitive and it might NOT be something easily explained. So far it's turning out to be very difficult to Disprove. So i don't know why you're dismissing it all out of hand.
