This riveting work of investigative reporting and history
exposes classified government projects to build gravity-defying
aircraft--which have an uncanny resemblance to flying
saucers.
The atomic bomb was not the only project to occupy government
scientists in the 1940s. Antigravity technology, originally
spearheaded by scientists in Nazi Germany, was another high
priority, one that still may be in effect today. Now for the first
time, a reporter with an unprecedented access to key sources in the
intelligence and military communities reveals suppressed evidence
that tells the story of a quest for a discovery that could prove as
powerful as the A-bomb.
The Hunt for Zero Point explores the scientific speculation that
a "zero point" of gravity exists in the universe and can be
replicated here on Earth. The pressure to be the first nation to
harness gravity is immense, as it means having the ability to build
military planes of unlimited speed and range, along with the most
deadly weaponry the world has ever seen. The ideal shape for a
gravity-defying vehicle happens to be a perfect disk, making
antigravity tests a possible explanation for the numerous UFO
sightings of the past 50 years.
Chronicling the origins of antigravity research in the world''s
most advanced research facility, which was operated by the Third
Reich during World War II, The Hunt for Zero Point traces U.S.
involvement in the project, beginning with the recruitment of
former Nazi scientists after the war. Drawn from interviews with
those involved with the research and who visited labs in Europe and
the United States, The Hunt for Zero Point journeys to the heart of
the twentieth century''s most puzzling unexplained phenomena.
