    When we are talking about confirmed, are we talking about 'confirmed' physics is being turned upside down on itself, or 'confirmed' we don't know why the fuck there is propulsion. The two aren't mutually exclusive, but the distinction is important when it comes to the EmDrive.

      As far as I know we're talking about the most fun type of "Confirmed" you can get in Science which is "This works and we ain't got a flying fuck of a clue why". That's always good as it means that either we don't know as much as we thought about discoveries we've already made or that there are entirely new discoveries just around the corner that we've just gotten very close to. Either way it's EXCITING!
