Nice citation Axil, It doesn’t indicate whether the device was sealed so I will assume it was not and that my theory requiring ambient gases loaded into the cavity lattice were wrong. I still think the basis is relativistic and that mainstream supposition that the ether is frameless has at least one caveat wrt to “joined” relativistic frames – In the Paradox twin there is little possibility of exploiting or even measuring differentials other than post experimental comparison of elapsed time, but, in Shawyers proposal the ether is suppressed not compressed and there is no no need for the near C spatial displacements – in fact, from our perspective the device remains spatially stationary while inside the cavity a river of tiny “virtual” observers would constantly see walls of the cavity falling away just like the near C twin would see a stationary frame contract away in a Pythagorean relationship to dx/dt – only without dx. IMHO the Shawyer drive, Casimir /nano powders and skeletal catalysts are all facets of what Hal Puthoff coined as vacuum engineering. If so then Casimir effect may have to be recast as time dilation of longer vacuum wavelengths instead of prohibiting their presence[larger vp still present between Casimir plates but Lorentz contracted].
