The United States Patent and Trademark Office has approved a patent for a space vehicle that is propelled by a superconducting shield that can change the curvature of space-time outside the craft in a way that counteracts gravity.
See US 6,960,975 to Volfson, entitled “Space vehicle propelled by the pressure of inflationary vacuum state” issued 1 November 2005
Antigravity devices defy the laws of physics demonstrated empirically by Galileo and formulated by Newton. “This is not the first such patent to be granted, but it shows that patent examiners are being duped by false science,” Robert Park of the American Physical Society in Washington DC said in a report on the matter in Nature magazine.
Previous to that, another patent was awarded to Henry Wm Wallace in 1971:
The US Patent Office has a policy of not awarding patents to antigravity devices because they believe it constitutes the acceptance of perpetual motion. And yet it did.
The above are but two of several examples of devices that received patents for gravity control and there are others. The question remains, did they actually build their devices and test them?

Robert Park talks about false science and I am sure some would agree with him.
But tell us Robert; what exactly do you think gravity is?
And while you’re at it please tell us what exactly energy is?
I can hardly wait to hear your answers as I am sure they would prove interesting to say the least.
