Quantum Vacuum Propulsion - Dr. Mike McCulloch, DemystiCon '25, DemystifySci #350

What if inertia isn't a built-in property of matter? What if it’s
an interaction with the fabric of the universe itself? So says
Physicist Dr. Mike McCulloch of the University of Plymouth, whose
Quantized Inertia theory is a radical challenge to our
understanding of motion, mass, and the very structure of the
cosmos. In this talk at DemystiCon ’25, McCulloch blends the
Casimir effect, Unruh radiation, and boundary conditions of the
universe, to propose a framework that explains galaxy rotation
without dark matter and hints at the future of propellant-less
space travel. He walks us through the theory, experiments, and
upcoming satellite tests that could rewrite the rules of
cosmology and propulsion.From historical roots in Newton and
Galileo to zero-point energy warp drives, this talk is a glimpse
at what physics might look like after dark matter… and after
rockets.PATREON https://www.patreon.com/c/demystifysciPARADIGM

#longformpodcast ABOUS US: Anastasia completed her PhD studying
bioelectricity at Columbia University. When not talking to
brilliant people or making movies, she spends her time painting,
reading, and guiding backcountry excursions. Shilo also did his
PhD at Columbia studying the elastic properties of molecular
water. When he's not in the film studio, he's exploring sound in
music. They are both freelance professors at various
universities. PATREON: get episodes early + join our weekly
