Resonant Cold Fusion Mechanism
Cold fusion works by finding resonant frequencies where zero-point fluctuations overcome the Coulomb barrier, enabling fusion at low temperatures without high kinetic energy
Vacuum Squeezing for Negative Energy
The theory that negative energy required for warp drives isn't exotic matter but rather the result of squeezing spacetime itself. By concentrating massive electromagnetic energy in a region, the zero-point fluctuations are amplified - this disturbance of the medium IS the negative energy.
