About This Book

A group of campus researchers investigate a spontaneously formed silver-like material that responds to thought by altering its weight and behavior. Systematic tests reveal it cannot be chemically altered, can be shaped at will, and converts mental intent into large physical effects; the team even rigs it to propel a car without engine power. The discovery resists replication, presents practical and safety challenges, and forces the investigators to balance curiosity, control, and the unsettling implications of a substance that appears to bridge consciousness and gravitation.
