Science!

The thing is I was under the impression that the Casimir effect as a catalyst for space travel was already theorized a long time ago. And I can't find an article about this from a website that is even close to scientifically credible.

Plus, phrases like "...where two very reflective very flat plates are held close together, and then moved slightly to interact with the quantum particle sea. It's horribly technical, but the end result..." raise some red flags. From an engineering standpoint there is basically nothing technical about two reflective flat plates.

NERD SHIT. Anyway, there's a big difference between theoretical physics and what we can engineer as human beings. Quantum physics is basically all on the subatomic scale, where all kinds of crazy shit happens and requires a whole new set of rules apart from classical mechanics.

So yeah, you can theorize all you want but linking quantum physics with real-life macro applications is pretty much a pipe dream since quantum effects on a macro scale are negligible.

But then there's that goddamn double-slit experiment.

IT'S SHIFTY IS ALL.
