U.S. Military Is Secretly Funding Researches On Fringe Technologies

Is the U.S. military working on some mysterious, sci-fi-like projects such as space-warp travel?

It seems like the U.S. military is investing a lot in some weird stuff.

Some researches are funded secretly

Thanks to some articles on The New York Times (as here) and Washington Post (here), we have already known that The Pentagon is up for something strange, something related to UFOs - by funding some secret researches.

As of now, new archives revealed by the Defense Intelligence Agency uncover that the projects additionally contemplated a rundown of things that seem like fringe science from some sci-fi movies including "warp drive", "wormholes", "extra dimensions" and UFOs.

What is this money flowing into?

Steve Aftergood, who serves as a director of Project on Government Secrecy, the Federation of American Scientists, has recently released these documents. He got them thanks to a request based on Information Freedom Act.

In an interview with a technology website named Motherboard, Aftergood revealed that these documents will somehow make all of us wonder what is going on here with all of the projects of the Pentagon. He added that these are something that normal people would never fund research unless they have too much money but don't know how to use it.

Covered Details

A portion of the topics depicted in the archive documents contain no subtleties, yet standard research ventures support others.

Warp Drive

A German researcher who is working on theories of cloaking was referred to by Nature was leading a project researching on invisible cloak technology. Another man, Richard Obousy, who works in theoretical physics is also implementing the project concerning "warp drives" and "extra dimensions".

Be that as it may, the full extent of the U.S. military's researches and investment on fringe innovations won't be fully known until the point that more documentation gets openly accessible.
