Defense Intelligence Agency · 8 pages · text from the file's own layer

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.

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.

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
