Spacetime Metric Engineering

A 13-lecture series on warp metrics, the quantum vacuum, and what experimenters can actually try.

Thirteen lectures on the physics and engineering of spacetime metric manipulation, the quantum vacuum, lattice confinement fusion, and what experimenters can actually try. The series exists because the principle, where it is genuinely understood, has historically been within reach of motivated experimenters at small scale — the Wright Brothers built the first airplane in a bicycle shop; Maiman built the first laser on a benchtop; the Fusor.net community maintains a public registry of amateur builders who have measured D-D fusion neutrons in homebuilt apparatus. The pattern is real, with citations.

Every claim in every lecture is placed on a four-tier disciplinary spine: peer-reviewed-replicated, peer-reviewed-once, patent-attested, or claim-only. By the end of the series, listeners can read any new physics claim in this territory and place it correctly.
