According to the contract paperwork available below:

“The objective of this contract is to provide scientific and engineering research and development (R&D) for the Air Force Research Laboratory, Propulsion Directorate (AFRLIPR), Edwards AFB, CA. This effort will provide on-site theoretical and experimental rocket and missile propulsion research in the physical and engineering disciplines. Typical research to be conducted includes investigation of High Energy Density Matter (HEDM), Chemical/Physical Science and Engineering Disciplines, as well as Aerophysics interactions.”

This contract resulted in an unknown number (but appears to be numerous) of reports regarding propulsion science. This was also the contract wherein two reports authored by Dr. Eric Davis were submitted to the Air Force and have been available on The Black Vault. They include:

Teleportation Physics Study, Air Force Research Laboratory, August 2004

Advanced Propulsion Study, Air Force Research Laboratory, September 2004

The post Research In Propulsion Sciences Contract between ERC, Inc. and the U.S. Air Force (AFFTC / AFRL), 1998 first appeared on The Black Vault.

According to the report:

“This study was tasked with the purpose of conducting a thorough literature and program search to carry out and document a technical assessment of the latest concepts in science and engineering that show promise of leading to a major advance in Earth-to-orbit (ETO) propulsion. The study also reviewed and evaluated a select number of credible far-term breakthrough propulsion physics concepts pertaining to R&D work done on or related to gravity/inertia modification, spacetime metric modification, and the extraction of energy from the space vacuum environment. The results of the study are presented and summarized in this report. A combined bibliography of advanced propulsion references was assembled and is presented.

The report includes an overview of the recent history and present state-of-the-art of ETO launch vehicle and propulsion concepts. Also included is an outline and summary of the criteria and operative guidelines that the author used to examine, select and recommend advanced propulsion concepts. The author identified and selected five promising advanced propulsion concepts, and provides a detailed technical evaluation of their breakthrough potential for ETO propulsion.”

 Advanced Propulsion Study, Air Force Research Laboratory, September 2004 by Dr. Eric W. Davis [103 Pages, 4MB]

The post Advanced Propulsion Study, Air Force Research Laboratory, September 2004 by Dr. Eric W. Davis first appeared on The Black Vault.

According to the document:

“This study was tasked with the purpose of collecting information describing the teleportation of material objects, providing a description of teleportation as it occurs in physics, its theoretical and experimental status, and a projection of potential applications. The study also consisted of a search for teleportation phenomena occurring naturally or under laboratory conditions that can be assembled into a model describing the conditions required to accomplish the transfer of objects. This included a review and documentation of quantum teleportation, its theoretical basis, technological development, and its potential applications. The characteristics of teleportation were defined and physical theories were evaluated in terms of their ability to completely describe the phenomena.

Contemporary physics, as well as theories that presently challenge the current physics paradigm were investigated. The author identified and proposed two unique physics models for teleportation that are based on the manipulation of either the general relativistic spacetime metric or the spacetime vacuum electromagnetic (zero-point fluctuations) parameters. Naturally occurring anomalous teleportation phenomena that were previously studied by the United States and foreign governments were also documented in the study and are reviewed in the report. The author proposes an additional model for teleportation that is based on a combination of the experimental results from the previous government studies and advanced physics concepts. Numerous recommendations outlining proposals for further theoretical and experimental studies are given in the report. The report also includes an extensive teleportation bibliography.”
