Salvatore Pais and the U.S. Navy's 'UFO' Patent Controversy

Between 2016 and 2019, a series of secretive tests were conducted by the U.S. Navy into a mysterious phenomenon that became known as "The Pais Effect." The experimentation stemmed from the publication of a collection of unusual patents describing UFO-like technologies by Salvatore Pais, an engineer and inventor whose work remains controversial today. 

Joining us this week on The Micah Hanks Program, Salvatore Pais speaks with Micah and colleague Tim McMillan for an on-the-record discussion about the patents, what inspired them, official inquiries that resulted from the Navy's experiments, and also the national security significance of Pais's research into "The Pais Effect."
