A former US Air Force fighter pilot claims to have worked out how the UFOs perform their incredible manoeuvres.<\/p>\n
There have been countless reports of military encounters with the mystery craft over the past 20 years, even sparking a huge Pentagon investigation.<\/p>\n
In the most famous sighting, the USS Nimitz encounter, fighter pilots reported seeing a UFO plummet from 28,000ft to just above sea level in less than one second.<\/p>\n

It would mean the craft reached 19,000mph \u2013 a speed that would pulverise any human pilot inside.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Former USAF pilot Chris Lehto explained the "two main issues" of the craft are they \u201cmove without inertia \u2013 they basically have no weight\u201d.<\/p>\n
But then when they move, \u201cthey move exceedingly fast super fast with no effect on their environment\u201d. <\/p>\n
Chris thinks the answer is a technology straight out of the realms of science fiction.<\/p>\n
He says that the answer to the UAP riddle is an Alcubierre Drive \u2013 a theoretical interstellar engine devised by Mexican physicist Miguel Alcubierre in 1994. <\/p>\n
It uses a kind of \u201cspace warp\u201d technology that will be familiar to anyone who\u2019s ever seen an episode of Star Trek.<\/p>\n

US government releasing UFO secrets 'could lead to total anarchy'<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
The technology bends space \u2013 allowing a craft inside a \u201cwarp bubble\u201d to effectively surf along at speeds close to or even beyond the speed of light without breaking any of the known laws of physics.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe Alcubierre Drive remains a hypothetical concept with seemingly difficult problems to solve,\u201d Chris explained. \u201cAlthough the amount of energy required is no longer thought to be unobtainably large.\u201d<\/p>\n
Patents filed with the US patent office describe how the drive might work, along with another revolutionary technology theorised by American aerospace engineer Salvatore Pais.<\/p>\n

UFO whistleblower David Grusch claims UK also has access to crashed alien crafts<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Pais theorises that high-powered rotating magnets could theoretically eliminate an object\u2019s inertia, and has filed a patent for a starship working on that principle.<\/p>\n
Chris is sceptical there though.<\/p>\n
He explained: \u201cHis patent applications for the US Navy attracted attention for their potential energy-producing applications, but also doubt about their feasibility, and speculation that they may be scams, pseudoscience, or disinformation intended to mislead the United States' adversaries.\u201d<\/p>\n
Rival theories suggest that the "Tic Tac" is actually a secret Pentagon project which are testing some of those same advanced technologies that Chris is talking about<\/p>\n
