The Scientist That “Discovered Antigravity” Then Disappeared Completely
She also was researching near-zero superconductors
In the summer of 1999, Discover magazine caused a stir in scientific circles with its explosive article on physicist Dr. Ning Li and her revolutionary research into antigravity technology.
Months later she vanished without a trace.
By October 2000 she had vanished into the vast depths of military-industrial obscurity, leaving a trail of tantalizing clues about her breakthrough.
It is the closest science had ever come to discovering an anti-gravity device:
“The device did not modify gravity, rather it produces a gravity-like field that may be either attractive or repulsive,” says Jonathan Campbell, a scientist at the NASA Marshall Space Flight Center who has worked with Li. “It’s a gravity-like force you can point in any direction. It could be used in space to protect the international space station against impacts by small meteoroids and orbital debris.”
Rumors flew about the mysterious scientist and her invention, but the truth remains shrouded in secrecy.
What happened to Dr. Ning Li?
