| This contest is fueled by the following news: |
| Dr. Franklin Felber, speaking at the Space Technology and Applications International Forum, propsoed an antigravity propulsion system. The Forum was held in Albuquerque, New Mexico, on February 14. Felber's proposal gives hopes to space enthusiasts that it may very well prove possible to accelerate a space craft to a speed approaching the speed of light without crushing the spacecraft in question or its cargo. Felber's paper states that a mass moving faster that 57.7 percent of the speed of light will then gravitationally repel other masses lying within a narrow antigravity beam in front of the moving object. The beam itself intensities as the speed of the mass approached the speed of light. Felber's theory conceptually changes the view about the viability of traveling to the far reaches of the universe. |
