This Defense Intelligence Agency info memo, dated 30 October 2009, reviews the first-year technical reports delivered under the Advanced Aerospace Weapon System Applications contract with Bigelow Aerospace Advanced Space Studies (BAASS). It lists 26 reports delivered in FY 2009, on topics including antigravity, warp drives and invisibility cloaking, and quotes excerpts from independent and Sandia National Laboratories reviews, all of them positive. It adds that Congress will apparently fund option year one at $12 million.
UNCLASSIFIED (U) Excerpts From Reviews (U) All of the following review information and comments are UNCLASSIFIED. Antigravity for Aerospace Applications in 2050 l(b)(6) I l(b)(6) lhas provided an excellent overview of conventional approaches to gravity manipulation within the confines of Nnvtonian, relativistic and quantum ph.vsics. With his (vpical lucid st.vie, he takes the time to add useful explanatory notes ivhich are especialJJ' enlixhtening for those for ivhom Relativity is not their first language. In addition, his extensive technical appendix concerninx such exorica as squeezed vacuum states, zero-point jluc/uations and negarive energy is ofgrear benefit. (b)(6) Technological Approaches to Controlling External Devices in the Absence of Limb Operated Interfaces (b)(6) The paper by (b)(6) looks at the present and future prospects for the human thoug 1t contra o ro of/cs and machines by way of high technology neural inte,faces. The ultimate aim of such research is to allow an indi"vidual to control the jimction of a prosthetic or robot as an exten.~ion of his own body and mind or to exerci.~e thought-based control over a mechanized environment. We find from l(b)(6) Icurrent review thar the slale ofrhe arr is srill quite far away from achieving such control hut strong efforts are being made on a number of approaches. (b)(6) On The Role of Superconductors in Gravity Research l(b)(6) I Because of the author's involvement and activit.v in the.field, it seems natural that he chose to write on this subject, and he is able to demonstrate not only a solid 4 UNCLASSIFIED
