Gravity is a process by which quantum mechanics applies on an interplanetary scale converting position uncertainty into energy uncertainty, quantised inertia: https://t.co/llkFVddAi3
Is consciousness a quantum phenomenon? Check out this fascinating overview of the Orch OR theory proposed by Penrose and Hameroff. I wonder if there are QI/horizon connections @memcculloch ?
Okay folks, this qualifies as BREAKING NEWS!
Harold “Sonny” White, the warp drive pioneer behind NASA’s EagleWorks Lab, just stepped out of stealth with Casimir Inc. to unveil MicroSPARC: the first battery free chip to harvest continuous electrical power straight from the quantum vacuum via the Casimir force.
The 5 mm × 5 mm device uses millions of custom microscale Casimir cavities fabricated on a substrate. Inside each cavity, two fixed conductive walls create a region of negative vacuum pressure (the well known Casimir effect). Stationary micropillars anchored in the middle act as antennas. Electrons from the cavity walls then quantum tunnel to the pillars because the interior is a lower energy “quieter” zone — and the probability of tunneling back is orders of magnitude lower. This one way “quantum ratchet” flow generates a measurable DC current with no external power source or moving parts.
Prototypes already fabricated at university nanofab facilities (Texas A&M AggieFab, MIT.nano) have been tested in RF-shielded, low noise chambers for weeks. The team reports outputs ranging from millivolts to volts at picoamp to microamp levels using precision electrometers and Kelvin Probe Force Microscopy. Target performance for the first commercial chip: ~1.5 V at 25 µA (≈40 µW continuous). Stacking and scaling could reach milliwatts or even watts per device.
Initial applications are ultra low power: always on IoT sensors, wearables, and medical implants. Longer term roadmap includes trickle charging phones, powering small electronics, and eventually grid independent homes or EVs. Commercialization is targeted for 2028, starting at ~$100/W before dropping toward $10/W.
White ties the work directly to his earlier theoretical paper on emergent quantization from a dynamic vacuum and sees it as a practical power source for the deep-space missions he’s long championed.
Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence, and independent scientists have so far declined public comment. But if the engineering scales as hoped, MicroSPARC would represent a genuine paradigm shift: continuous, maintenance free power drawn from the fabric of spacetime itself.
A bold leap from warp-drive theory into real hardware. Progress (and vacuum-powered chips) marches on.

Levitation using bismuth crystals...
Bismuth crystals have a unique property called diamagnetism, which means they weakly repel magnetic fields.
When a magnet is placed near a bismuth crystal, the crystal aligns its crystal structure to create a magnetic field that opposes the external magnetic field.
This opposing magnetic field creates an upward force on the magnet, causing it to levitate above the bismuth crystal.
Levitation occurs without any external power source, batteries, or gimmicks.
The levitation effect is not unique to bismuth crystals; other diamagnetic materials, such as pyrolytic graphite, can also exhibit similar behavior

IMO there is no separate force of #gravity, only #quantisedinertia. This is why gravity is so disconnected from the other forces, it is a bolt-on to hide the fact that physics is not yet the right shape. The proof is that #QI is simpler & predicts better: https://t.co/llkFVdd2sv
My dad (Richard Feynman) had a side hustle doing industrial consulting. He'd spend a few hours visiting a company, talking to the engineers, looking at stuff, and then maybe have a good suggestion. Sometimes he would bring his son along. I only recall one of his suggestions, but it made the company he was consulting for way better off, so I guess his exorbitant consulting fees were worth it. We could have been wealthier if he had done it systematically, but he didn't want to be organized about looking for jobs, so it just happened when someone asked.
What we feel pushing us back as inertia when we accelerate, is the energy the cosmic 'computer game' gets from being able to delete all the stuff behind us because it's not needed for now #quantisedinertia
#quantisedinertia has never had any counter evidence presented against it, whereas #darkmatter has never had any evidence FOR it, yet it's accepted, because 'Einstein'. Well new data beats old authorities, as Einstein also knew well. Join the future early: https://t.co/UaatdFAtfF
‘The Thinking Game’ documentary has just passed 200M views on YouTube in just 4 weeks! 🤯Perfect holiday viewing if you’re interested in a behind-the-scenes look at how an AGI lab works, or what goes into making a Nobel Prize winning project like AlphaFold happen.🧬🚀
A nice video from India about one of my simplest & most conceptual papers. Gravity, like inertia, is not a separate process but is just a consequence of quantum uncertainty: https://t.co/qR3nF3oZaU
The key to loving #physics is to realise that it is not what other people say it is, nor a text book, a university course or over-complex maths. It is a beautiful sunset, an mysterious anomaly in the data, the way relativity & quanta don't fit, or a new technical hope. #Magic
Couldn’t agree more. Mike’s theory is a genuine breakthrough in physics with profound implications, and yet the world remains relatively silent. This is our Star Trek future!
In quantised inertia, inertia is not a body following an abstract worldline (untestable) but it is responding to the impacts of virtual particles, damped (i.e. fewer) on the side it's accelerating away from because of the perceived horizon there (testable, & useful!). #QI
One contribution of #QI is that it predicts G. QI demands that the mass in a volume must produce accelerations such that Unruh waves fit in that volume. Simple logic. This predicts G = c^2CosmicSize/2CosmicMass which works. G is no longer needed in physics! #simplification
