I always wonder when I hear stuff like this if it’s a leak of something that is way better. I know that is tinfoil hat stuff but I just can’t help but think it is happening

I imagine we will see a galaxy full of hot jupiters, airless super earths, and no life, or full of apocalyptic events and extinction.

Hack scientist debunked.

I wrote the book on warp drive. No, we didn't accidentally create a warp bubble.
The same (former) NASA engineer who previously claimed to violate Newton's laws is now claiming to have made a warp bubble. He didn't.

I guess that's why my brother (who is deeply into learning about this kind of stuff) ignored my text when I sent him the original link. He was probably laughing at the whole thing.Hack scientist debunked.

You know what's the worst part about this. There are so many of these charlatans who oversell their work and get a lot of funding because of how they market their work. A lot of more deserving projects are left in the dust because of this.Hack scientist debunked.

I don't intend to directly compare these two as that would be horrible on my part, but I've been reading about Edward Teller lately. Obviously brilliant and his accomplishment's don't need to be listed, but he had a gift for packaging and selling science. And politicians loved buying it. The story of Project Excalibur is so fascinating. Interesting theoretical background (X-ray laser) with real world applications that were upsold and invested in to the tune of huge sums of money by the Defense Department. Now Teller was a real scientist and earned every ounce of the respect and recognition he got -- but the abstract concept of the ability to package and sell science is similar.
Harold White is fringe.

Maybe the accident happened because of that.

What was peer reviewed is likely accurate. However the claims in the press and the journal article are very different.
