Explore new energy concepts, advanced propulsion, UAP research, and the physics behind extraordinary possibilities\. Our interviews and feature stories bring you closer to the people doing the work—and the questions driving them\. - [Our Team](https://www.altsci.net/team/): The APEC conference started during the Pandemic, when Mark Sokol, Jeremiah Popp, Tim Ventura \& Jeremy Rys started doing Zoom calls to discuss emerging concepts in propulsion physics\. That was November of 2020, and it didn't take long before word of mouth grew our meetings into a regular monthly call\. ## Posts - [Nikola Tesla Said It Could Be Done\. The Corum Brothers Explained How\.](https://www.altsci.net/nikola-tesla-said-it-could-be-done-the-corum-brothers-explained-how/): Nikola Tesla imagined a world powered without transmission lines, reported strange luminous phenomena around his electrical machines, and wondered whether mysterious signals had reached him from another planet\. James and Kenneth Corum approached those extraordinary claims with a deceptively simple question: What would an engineer have to build to make them happen? Their investigations led from nineteenth\-century notebooks to high\-voltage resonators, artificial fireballs, reconstructed radio receivers, and experiments with waves traveling along conducting surfaces\. They didn’t validate every promise Tesla made\. But they uncovered something more interesting than another argument about his genius: specific mechanisms, measurable effects, and experimental pathways hidden inside ideas that often sounded like science fiction\. - [APEC 10/24: Future Propulsion, Gravity Modification \& Magnetism](https://www.altsci.net/apec-oct-2026/): Gary Stephenson will explore what’s next in propulsion, energy, and communications; Dr\. Lucian Ionescu will revisit Alzofon’s gravity\-modification experiments and discuss his own proposals involving spin currents and metamaterials; and Dr\. Weiping Yu will explore magnetism as a fundamental principle and its potential implications for energy and propulsion\. We’ll also hear experimental research updates from the community, then close with audience questions and open discussion\. - [Cold Fusion \& LENR: From Metal Lattices to Mini Reactors?](https://www.altsci.net/cold-fusion-lenr-from-metal-lattices-to-mini-reactors/): What if fusion’s future isn’t one enormous power plant, but many smaller reactors serving homes, vehicles, and neighborhoods? That’s the possibility physicist and electrical engineer Lynn Bowen sees in solid\-state fusion: deuterium fuel held inside a metal lattice, where she proposes that energetic nuclear reaction products could help sustain further reactions\. Her approach puts materials science at the center of a problem usually associated with extreme plasma temperatures and magnetic confinement\. But the distance between a promising reaction model and a practical generator isn’t measured in atoms alone\. It runs through fuel loading, particle energy losses, radiation detection, heat extraction, and the controls needed to turn nuclear activity into dependable power\. - [Alt Propulsion Is Now AltSci](https://www.altsci.net/alt-propulsion-is-now-altsci/): Alt Propulsion is now the Alternative Science Network \(AltSci\)\. As we approach our sixth anniversary and look ahead to 2027, we’re bringing a broader range of science and technology into the conversation, creating new ways to connect, and strengthening our commitment to the people whose ideas and experiments make this community possible\. - [The Race To Infinity: Potential Solutions For Travel To Other Worlds](https://www.altsci.net/the-race-to-infinity-potential-solutions-for-travel-to-other-worlds/): Brendan McNamara wants to meet aliens\. Not in the abstract, not through a message that arrives centuries after it was sent, and not by launching a spacecraft that his distant descendants might eventually welcome home\. He wants the encounter to happen within his own lifetime\. An ecologist, computer technician, farmer, and carpenter, McNamara approaches that ambition from an unusually broad perspective, following a trail that leads from nuclear propulsion and engineered spacetime to quantum computers, simulated worlds, and consciousness itself\. Along the way, the question changes\. What begins as a search for a faster spacecraft becomes something more fundamental: Does experiencing another world necessarily require taking a human body there? ## People - [Miguel Alcubierre](https://www.altsci.net/people/miguel-alcubierre/): Dr\. Miguel Alcubierre is a Mexican theoretical physicist and researcher at the Institute of Nuclear Sciences of the National Autonomous University of Mexico \(UNAM\)\. He is best known for proposing the Alcubierre metric, a mathematical model of warp travel published in 1994 that explores how a spacecraft might achieve effective faster\-than\-light travel through the curvature of spacetime rather than by locally exceeding the speed of light\. - [Raymond Chiao](https://www.altsci.net/people/raymond-chiao/): Dr\. Raymond Y\. Chiao is an experimental physicist and Professor Emeritus of Physics at the University of California, Merced, internationally recognized for his research in quantum optics and nonlinear optics\. His career includes 38 years at UC Berkeley, landmark experiments involving the behavior of individual photons, and investigations into the relationship between quantum mechanics and gravitational radiation\. His scientific honors include the Einstein Prize for Laser Science and the Willis E\. Lamb Medal for Laser Science and Quantum Optics\. - [Salvatore Pais](https://www.altsci.net/people/salvatore-pais/): Dr\. Salvatore C\. Pais is an aerospace engineer, inventor, and physicist best known for a series of unconventional U\.S\. Navy patents proposing new approaches to electromagnetic\-field generation, inertial\-mass reduction, gravitational\-wave generation, superconductivity, and compact fusion\. His work has attracted widespread attention in the advanced propulsion community because it attempts to connect extreme electromagnetic energy densities, macroscopic quantum effects, the quantum vacuum, and spacetime engineering within a common conceptual framework\. - [Harold White](https://www.altsci.net/people/harold-white/): Dr\. Harold “Sonny” White is a physicist and aerospace engineer whose work spans spacecraft systems, advanced propulsion, and quantum\-vacuum research\. He is the founder and CEO of Casimir, Inc\., a company developing nanoscale power\-cell technology, and previously served as Advanced Propulsion Theme Lead at NASA’s Johnson Space Center\. His research has explored approaches ranging from nuclear\-powered space transportation to laboratory investigations of concepts associated with warp\-field physics\. - [Ning Li](https://www.altsci.net/people/ning-li/): Dr\. Ning Li was a Chinese\-American physicist best known in the breakthrough propulsion community for her controversial theoretical and experimental work on superconductors, gravitomagnetism, and artificial gravity\. Working at the University of Alabama in Huntsville’s Center for Space Plasma and Aeronomic Research, Li became one of the central figures in the 1990s wave of interest surrounding superconductors and gravity control\. ## Categories - [Events](https://www.altsci.net/events/) - [Physics](https://www.altsci.net/physics/) - [UAP Analysis](https://www.altsci.net/seti-uap/analysis/) - [Field Effect](https://www.altsci.net/propulsion/field-effect/) - [Energy](https://www.altsci.net/energy/) ## People Categories - [Guests](https://www.altsci.net/people_cat/guests/) - [Team](https://www.altsci.net/people_cat/team/)
