NASA tests "impossible" no-fuel quantum space engine - and it actually works

A study conducted last year by NASA scientists has become the latest, and by far the highest profile, piece of evidence in favor of a seemingly impossible space thruster design that's been evoking worldwide skepticism for some time now. Apparently annoyed by the persistent boosters of several similar but distinct designs, the space agency finally agreed to test an American-made variant called the Cannae Drive.

"Alright!" they said. "We'll test your stupid drive that won"t work." Except it did work. Seemingly in contravention of the law of conservation of momentum, the team confirmed that the device produces thrust by using electricity, and nothing else. Supporters call them microwave thrusters or quantum vacuum plasma thrusters (QVPT), while most others use the phrase "anomalous thrust device."

Well, they finally did it - http://www.extremetech.com/extreme/187346-nasa-tests-impossible-no-fuel-quantum-space-engine-and-it-actually-works

Granted, it's a very very tiny thrust, but there shouldn't be any.  Check for some Dude leaving his beer on the scale.  :)

Speaking of beer, "beer thrust"...

Still seems a little crazy this wasn't bigger news...  And like 2 days after reading about this I read about micro thin "fabric-like" solar panels. The future is here! And no one noticed!
