thedrive | The War Zone has been reporting on a set of bizarre patents
assigned to the U.S. Navy that describe radical new technologies that
could absolutely revolutionize the aerospace field, and frankly, the
very way we live our lives. These include high-energy electromagnetic
fields used to create force fields and outlandish new methods of
aerospace propulsion and vehicle design that basically read as UFO-like
technology. You can learn all about these patents, their viability, and
the issues surrounding them in these exclusive features of ours.
Now, the same mysterious Naval Air Warfare Center Aircraft Division
engineer behind those patents has produced another patent—one for a
compact fusion reactor that could pump out absolutely incredible amounts
of power in a small space—maybe even in a craft.
Energy
dominance has become a cornerstone of American military policy as
laboratories seek to develop the ‘Holy Grail’ of power generation:
nuclear fusion. These attempts at developing stable fusion reactors
utilize incredibly powerful magnetic fields in order to contain the
nuclear reactions occurring inside. Creating a stable fusion reaction is
difficult enough, but some laboratories are going even further by
attempting to create compact reactors small enough to fit inside
shipping containers or even possibly vehicles.
While Lockheed Martin’s CFR designs have garnered quite a bit of
media attention and internet buzz in recent years, it appears one of the
Skunk Works' major clients is also hard at work in this field. The U.S.
Navy has filed a potentially revolutionary patent application
for a radical new compact fusion reactor that claims to improve upon
the shortcomings of the Skunk Works CFR, and judging from the identity
of the reactor’s inventor, it's sure to raise eyebrows in the scientific
community.
This latest design is the brainchild of the elusive Salvatore Cezar Pais, the inventor of the Navy’s bizarre and controversial room temperature superconductors, high energy electromagnetic field generators, and sci-fi-sounding propulsion technologies that The War Zone
has previously reported on. The patent for Pais’ “Plasma Compression
Fusion Device” was applied for on March 22, 2018, and was just published
on September 26, 2019.
