Hidden Fusion Solution
The theory that a viable fusion reactor design was published in 2016 but remains unimplemented publicly due to national security classification.
Northrop's Fusion-ZPE Link
A theory derived from John Northrop's 1974 statements that UFO propulsion is based on fusion technology which taps into unlimited power sources, likely Zero Point Energy.
ZPE as Interstellar Propulsion
Zero Point Energy is the primary energy source for interstellar travel, enabling propulsion systems that are superior to rocket technology.
