 I was an unintended witness. December 3, 2002

I picked up this book because I happened to hear the author interviewed on NPR. It was simply fascinating until I suddenly realized that it explained an event that left me puzzled for 30 some years. Then it became riveting.
It's about top secret technology, which has been pursued since it was captured from the Nazis in WWII. It is incorporated in the stealth bomber since it obscures radar. It also reduces weight as in antigravity. Airplanes of the future may approach or EXCEED the speed of sound. The technology involves creating a super preponderance of negative charge on one side and the opposite at the other.
Now comes the zinger for me. I think I witnessed an example when sailing a small boat with another couple to CT from FL in the late 60's. Off the coast of North Carolina ( we later learned that it was a military restricted zone ) at about 2 AM, I was alone at the helm when I saw a ruby red light at 12:00 on the forward horizon. It remained stationery for about 2 minutes and then transferred to the stern horizon where it was again stationery. I think that this instantaneous shift occurred a couple of times. Strikingly, there was not a sound coming from the red dot even as it transferred from horizon to horizon. It then shifted to the port beam and seemed much closer. It was hovering about10 feet off the water. Still no sound, very eerie. All of a sudden engines audibly started up. Running lights appeared, port and starboard, and the wings of a large aircraft could be seen gently, rocking sise to side. The aircraft then thundered over the mast in a buzzing action. Realizing that this must be a military craft, I flashed on the mast head lights to show my American flag and the plane buzzed again. I had a good view of the contour of the plane directly overhead in the lights. It was a conventional 4 engine swept wing jet similar to a commercial jet. Though I could see no Harrier type contour, I assumed that these jets swung down to enable the craft to hover. Since I had recently seen the English single engine Harrier at an air show I discounted this as a 4 engine Harrier.
When I read this account I remembered the silence of the plane when it was visible only as the ruby red dot. Its noisy conventional engines contrasted sharply to the silence of the antigravity mode. A switch is described converting a craft to conventional from antigravity mode, and vise-versa. The key that turned on my recollection was that eerie silence, which I can still hear after thirty some years.
I am contacting the author for his comments on what I consider a verification.

This book is great example of someone writing with a passion for searching for the truth. Well documented, the author takes us back to the early days of rocket development to search out if indeed we truly have man-made UFOs and the secret of anti-gravity.

First of all, let me say that once I started reading this book, I couldn't put it down till I was finished. It's a very well-written book. What you have to realize in reading this book is that a lot of what the author is trying to uncover or find clues to the existence of is currently cutting edge physics and technology. Automatically, if the technology actually does what it's claimed to do and there is any promise for it at all, this makes it classified for anyone, public or private sector, who is developing it. If the information were readily available, who'd need this book? So, what this book ends up being is more of a trail through the scattered hints and clues of history, and an attempt to try to tie them all together. Do the things the author uncovered from 60 years ago seem fanciful, primitive, and outdated now? Sure, but look at how far we've come technologically in just the last 20 years. Did you think you'd have this much computer power available to you back then? I didn't think so. If anyone has been working on zero point energy for 50 years or more, they're way way beyond what is presented here. Does this book represent the state of the art as to what we know today? Obviously not. But, does it compel those of us who are interested to look in the right direction? I think it does, and all that matters might be to raise enough people's concsiousness to what may be possible. This book does that.

Nick Cook dispenses some valuable information. He is still currently a regular editer for Jane's Defence Weekly.
I don't know why he doesn't attribute his knowledge to his
regular articles (compartmentalized thinking going on - dangerous!)....I guess he'd get the sack if he did.
(I have not as yet read the book's entire content, but what I have gleaned is excellent.
A worthy edition to any serious researcher on Anti-Gravity and
UFO related fields.
Shalom.

You will enjoy this book if you:
(1) have considered becoming an investigative journalist. Nick Cook provides a close up view of what an investigative journalist does -- including satisfactions and disappointments.
(2) are fascinated by World War 2.
(3) would like to get a feel for how governments manage, protect, and pursue top secret advanced technology innovation. You will be disappointed in this book if you:
(1) prefer to see endings where a quest is achieved.
(2) expect to learn many insider secrets about exotic new energy breakthroughs.
(3) already know all you want to know about WW2. If learning more about breakthrough energy technology itself is your main interest, then you're better of to use an Internet search engine with the phrase "zero point".
