The United States based and Austrain funded Project Home 2011 scientific research project, which completed January 1, 2011 after 32 years of investor funded research, with a successful test in matter acceleration to astronomical speeds in a closed vacuum chamber.
While researching how to do this, some new technology came out of the project as a byproduct, such as a faster computer processing method of operating system, and the use of superconductive material called Bose Einstein Condensate in a sealed pressure vessel that allows the tranferrence of strong inductive fields from a recycling electric current that is able to propel and levitate a vehicle.
