Former technology journalist Nick Cook is well-known for his groundbreaking non-fiction book, The Hunt For Zero Point. Cook's intriguing tale recounts the long quest to develop anti-gravity vehicles and the sometimes eccentric characters who have played a part in it: Nazi rocket engineers, backyard inventors, NASA scientists, conspiracy theorists, and UFO watchers among them. He discussed the possibilities of anti-gravity aircraft developed at Area 51, including what Art himself witnessed near his home in Nevada. Cook also detailed the work of Russian scientist Eugene Podkletnov, and his development of an "impulse gravity generator," which was supposedly able to decrease the weight of objects placed over it.
Cook elaborated on aerospace and military interests into anti-gravity and the history of "zero-point energy," which would produce energy from nothing or essentially so, since the effect is very small but revolutionary. He also mentioned the work of Thomas Townsend Brown, who demonstrated anti-gravity effects in the 1920s and 1930s. During WWII, Cook said that Nazi scientists were working on "radical technology" that may have also achieved similar goals before the end of the war.
In the present, he discussed new microwave weapons that could penetrate at least 100 feet underground, and the use of journalists to reveal possible new weapons and technology to foreign adversaries. During the interview, Cook emphasized his "extreme skepticism" about these subjects throughout his research, and his astonishment when some of the stories he pursued turned out to be true.
