Listen to the story told by André Fuzfa, the physicist with the radical
plan to manipulate gravity which could one day result in astronauts
walking, like captain Kirk or Han Solo, rather than floating around in
their spaceships.*

With a PhD in Theoretical Physics in the field of Cosmology in his pocket,
André Fuzfa is a professor at the University of Namur, and is well on his
way to turn science fiction into reality.

Working within the field of the physical nature of dark energy and
extensions of Einstein’s general relativity, Prof. Fuzfa has made a bold
but grounded claim that mankind has the ability to create and control
artificial gravitational fields with technology currently available. By
doing this, he has thrown out a snowball, which might very soon turn into
an avalanche of futuristic applications.
