GERMAR RUDOLF, RESISTANCE IS OBLIGATORY<br />

the gravitational effect could be reproduced under laboratory conditions,<br />

the scientific world gradually overcame its skepticism. Finally, in<br />

the early 2000s, even prestigious physics journals, which had initially<br />

exerted peer censorship, began carrying articles on the subject.<br />

Podkletnov’s accidental discovery of the possibility of creating<br />

aimed gravity beams through electromagnetic effects conflicts greatly<br />

with both classical and relativistic models of gravity. According to Einstein,<br />

gravity is nothing more than the bending of space caused by energy<br />

singularities, that is to say: mass. Aimed gravity beams that are created<br />

electromagnetically cannot possibly fit into this concept. On the<br />

other hand, physicists have been trying for more than a century to combine<br />

the concepts of electromagnetism and gravitation into a single unified<br />

field equation. Apparently the experimental physicist Podkletnov<br />

has succeeded where the theoretical physicists failed.<br />

It is therefore possible that the entire science of physics is on the<br />

verge of another revolution. This clearly shows how literally unsteady<br />

the ground is on which we think we are standing. 98<br />

And if our understanding of gravity – something we have always<br />

held to be “firm as a rock” – actually rests on such an uncertain and unsteady<br />

basis, how can we speak of self-evidence in other areas that are<br />

significantly more difficult to perceive?<br />

In view of the basic insecurity of all knowledge, Karl R. Popper is<br />

completely right when he makes the following conclusion: 99<br />

“Only if the student experiences how easy it is to err, and how<br />

hard to make even a small advance in the field of knowledge, only<br />

then can he obtain a feeling for the standards of intellectual honesty,<br />

a respect for truth, and a disregard of authority and bumptiousness.”<br />

Dr. Halton Arp, professor of astrophysics at the Max Planck Institute<br />

for Astrophysics near Munich, has summarized the tragedy that is brewing<br />

today in science generally and astrophysics in particular as follows:<br />
