True, but then why spend all that money on a patent! Just publish it in the public domain

There are some projects being developed on Open Source basis.

Some members may not have heard about Roger Shawyer's emdrive:

This caused quite a kerfuffle in scientific circles when reviewed in New Scientist as it offers a form of reactionless-propulsion but appears break the conservation of momentum rule.

According to a link from wikipedia, a team of Chinese reserachers have confirmed the theory and are building a demonstration model.

I have found something new. There is a successful attempt on replicating an effect used in a patented Howard Johnson magnetic motor. The patent No. 4,151,431 was granted in 1979(!).

The author, nickname 'Mylow' has posted several videos of his crude prototype. I have attached the most convincing of them.

EDIT: It has been debunked. In this video he was using a thin fishing line to rotate the motor.
