Conspiracy theorists have always insisted that antigravity was being developed "in the black" by covert government commissions and military units. Its the secret engine in the B-2 bombers, man! Theyre testing them at Area 51! What makes lifters different is that theyre no secret at all. Fans post home videos of themselves grinning as their devices hover above their kitchen tables. Last spring, three Detroit high school students won the citys science fair by floating a giant lifter, and the teachers sent out an exuberant press release ("BEAM ME UP SCOTTY," they gushed). With stuff like this, who needs black ops? This is antigravity for the masses.
