The radical plan to manipulate GRAVITY: Researcher reveals scheme to create and control gravitational fields using current technology

* Mathematical proposal aims to unlock new era of experimental gravity
* Researcher says current technologies could let humans to control gravity
* Experiment could put Einstein's theory of relativity to the ultimate test

Energy fields having a gravity effect isn't a new idea. But enough for a practical effect?

Anyone have any thoughts on what should be seen if a Mach Effect device were operated near the LIGO detector?

[hanelyp]

Presuming the Mach/Woodward device works with any resemblance to concept, I'd presume a very distinct narrow band signal on a nearby LIGO type detector.

I don't know about LIGO, but my thought is that a Mach-Effect device, when powered up and producing thrust, should cause a visible change to the interference pattern generated by something like the Michaelson-Morely (sp?) experiment.

LIGO has a configuration very similar to MMX except not rotating.
