This page will outline some candidate theories of operation (or non-operation).

Debunking Theories

  • These theories should be explained, then debunked with the simplest explanation, with a link to a dedicated page to show the work or work in progress that backs up that explanation.

Experimental error

  • It's all a hoax/conspiracy
  • Simple measuring error
  • Thermal effects
  • Mechanical vibration
  • Magnetic effects with environment

Proponent Theories

  • Guido Fetta's, Cannae Drive creator's Theory
  • Roger Shawyer's, Em Drive creator's theory
  • Quantum foam MHD
  • Harold White's Quantum vacuum plasma thruster (QVP thruster)
  • Conservation of momentum breaking theories
    • this deserves an entire subsection
    • MiHsC, Mike McCulloch
  • Harold White's Warp effects


8/5/14 - Greg Egan modeled the resonant modes of a conical cavity.

2/2/15 - @areo modeled evanescent waves using MEEP. Conclusion was that, due to rapid dropoff at the frustum surface, these were of insufficient magnitude to explain the thrust.
