And, you know, I acknowledge the fact it doesn't have any thermal signatures that were indicative of like a plume or something like that, right? So some of those things definitely are hard to explain.

Yeah, because their eyes are trained to go through and discern different things because they're always thinking about, can this kill me? Can I kill it? What do I need? I completely acknowledge the fact they have that framework drilled into their head and that helps them. put this into a special category. But those are unfortunately single data points. So I can't do anything with that.

And that gets back to what we talked about at the beginning of all this. I would love for somebody to show up with a notebook full of all these great observations that would help me. We're making these little nanochips that we're trying to use to extract energy. Can I see those? Yeah, sure. Is that the actual nanochips? These are a bunch of the nanochips that we're doing.

This is part of the Casimir company that we spun out. These chips interact with the quantum field and generate a voltage potential between those leads. And so we measure voltage on those guys and we put them in dark RF shielded enclosures. There's some pictures. That's so cool.

Yeah. And it's fun to think about how do you even make stuff like that? We can talk about that in just a minute. But, you know, let's talk about some of the applications, right? You know, this is – let's see. Can we go back a couple slides? Keep going. Keep going. Keep going. One more. All right. So –

Let's just spend maybe three minutes here talking about the Casimir force, at least picking up where we left off. So we talked about the idea of the Casimir force is a macroscopic observational consequence of something called the quantum vacuum, these fluctuating fields and forces. If you go to the next slide, Jamie.

So conceptually, the following is true, independent of anything that we're doing with the nanotechnology we're developing. If you allow the quantum field to interact on these two metal plates that we talked about as part of the Casimir force, it will apply a force over a distance, and it will cause that gap to close and go to zero, right?
