The Potential for the Pentagon to Develop Magnet-Powered Submarines Similar to ‘Red October’
The Pentagon’s current focus is on the advancement of magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) technology for use in future naval vessels. Instead of traditional propellers, MHDs will utilize magnetic fields to produce quieter and more agile ships and submarines. This technology was first introduced to the public through the book and movie “The Hunt for Red October.” The…

Utilizing the Infinite Vacuum Energy of Space to Achieve the Elusive Light Speed
The concept proposed by Hendrik Casimir for an experiment was straightforward: place two metallic objects in close proximity and observe. Without any external influences, the objects will spontaneously be attracted to each other, resembling a magical phenomenon. There will be no external forces, no pushing or pulling, and no effects from gravity, tension, or magnetism.…
