Gravitational Field Propulsion via Relativistic Mass Flow
UAPs propel themselves by accelerating electrons in toroidal coils to near light-speed. This increases their relativistic mass, creating a Lense-Thirring effect that warps space-time, allowing the craft to move by manipulating the ether or space-time rather than traditional propulsion.
ZPE-Driven FTL Propulsion
The theory that faster-than-light travel is possible by manipulating the zero-point energy (ZPE) vacuum fluctuations. By reducing the cutoff frequency of ZPE, one can generate the enormous acceleration required to tunnel through the light barrier, effectively bypassing relativistic mass increase.
