5 out of 5 stars The technology *MAY* be a hoax, but the murders were real   March 9, 2010
Brian (Tacoma, WA)
Operation Paperclip brought WWII-era German rocket scientists over to the US to participate in the space program. If this book is to be believed, these scientists were valued not only for their expertise with rocketry, but with other more exotic technologies as well, including antigravity. If antigravity research WAS going on in wartime Germany, it didn't produce any weapons to help them win them the war, but apparently it showed promise.
Since hard evidence of antigravity research is lacking, one has to wonder if the whole story was just a ruse... maybe something to bargain with during the surrender. That's not unreasonable, considering some German rocket scientists apparently DID finesse their way out of standing trial at Nurenburg by hinting that they had knowledge of this antigravity technology. So is there anything to the myth of antigravity? It's hard to say. Something like that would be highly classified. The author tries to draw connections between the nascent technology and UFO sightings. The reader is left to decide how much to believe.
Chillingly, it looks like several German scientists may have lost their lives because of the myth (or reality) of antigravity technology. Even if antigravity technology doesn't exist, that story alone makes this a gripping book.

A fringe of researchers (and their readers) have been aware of the existence of the types of secretive projects Cook outlines in this book for a while now. However, it is unique that an editor of Jane's Defense Weekly is now owning up to the fact that for the past decade, he has been deeply and personally involved in this field of research, and is indeed a "believer." You probably will be too, after reading this book.

It turns out that the Nazi's had some success tapping into the Zero Point Energy Field, and were well on the way to building a completely new type of antigravity aircraft/infinite power supply/super weapon. At the end of WWII, the Soviets and Americans managed to scoop up not only the scientists involved in this research (many of whom were blatant Nazi sympathizers), but also the devices they had been developing. These technologies have since gone "deep black," that is to say, have been buried in the deepest recesses of the military industrial complex and intelligence apparatus. But it seems that this whole underworld may have become contaminated by the Nazi thought-virus, and even to this day shares, to some degree, the ideology and methodology of the Nazi Secret Service. This is a theme that Cook brings up, but does not fully delve into. It is clear that he is literally frightened by some of the truths he managed to uncover in his decade-long quest for knowledge.

Cook avoids tying his research to the UFO phenomenon, which is both good and bad. Good, in that it will probably allow the book to appeal to a much wider audience, and will allow the book a greater degree of credibility. Bad, in that tying these two strands of research together, in an intelligent manner, will most probably yield some truly incredible pieces of information that, as cliche as it sounds, may change our civilization forever. Cook does seem to acknowledge the reality of the UFO situation in the epilogue, however, and it seems safe to assume that this is an area of research he has looked into and found to be a valid, if misunderstood, phenomenon.

I cannot recommend this book highly enough. While it is certain to stretch the imagination of many people, it will also go a long way to validating this field of inquiry. Hopefully, this will allow more reasonable and intelligent investigative journalists to enter into the fold. Who knows what they will find there...


5 out of 5 stars A fascinating topic couched in a highly readable text   February 9, 2004

The atomic bomb wasn't the only 1940s secret project to interest scientists: antigravity technology was another high priority, and one which may still be under study today. In The Hunt For Zero Point, professional journalist Nick Cook, with his access to key sources in intelligence and military communities, reveals evidence of a search for limitless energy and gravity control. This is a fascinating topic couched in a highly readable text.


5 out of 5 stars It's the journey, not the destination, that's interesting.   January 11, 2003

First off, this is not a science book but more of a science-detective book. If your looking for science, go read Hawking (who, by the way admits in his most recent book that he is currently doing "gravity research"). There are dozens of small revelations that, when put together, give a much brighter picture of what the US government is up to and how it operates relating to secret science. The author doesn't really linger on each point too long, but he weaves the facts together in such a way as to really make you think. From the US "black" budget, to the implications of the origins of some of this science, the big picture is pretty impressive. He successfully domonstrates that there is a great deal of smoke in terms of disinformation and denial when it comes to high-tech government projects. And we all know, where there's smoke.....

In this shadowy world of antigravity, there is deliberate deception and false stories pointing to UFO's, and then ridiculing that possibility by others. People are whipped around by propaganda worthy of "1984". Nick Cook writes an excellent undercover book in The Hunt for Zero Point, but I am left wondering if he is participating in truth-telling, or deception, or both? It's well written, intriguing, and I cannot see any reason why anyone wouldn't like this book. But....at the end, is it true? My opinion is that antigravity is a deep black program and a lot of UFO sightings are sightings of already flying disc craft of human origin.
