Insight from a senior-level aerospace engineer.
A case can be made that the geometric shapes of UAP are designed to attenuate the interaction between their propulsion system and the space-time fabric.
This is especially necessary during the gravitational instability these vehicles display during low speed or hovering conditions.
The shapes are designed to gently keep the UAP in a tight geometric space as it settles on a convex space-time distortion that resembles a mound while slowing down or stopping to hover.
What leads to the convex space-time distortion? One explanation is that it is caused by an exotic material employed by UAP propulsion systems.
I first described this material as the catalyst for an advanced propulsion system in the article “Can Tic Tacs Fly?” and theorized that it is composed of negative matter.
And in the article “A Conceptual View of a UAP Reverse Engineering Program,” I named it cavorite after the material that can negate the force of gravity introduced in H. G. Wells’ “The First Men in the Moon,” first published in 1900.
Cavorite or negative matter is not antimatter.
It is a proposed solution for dark energy.
In 2017, scientists at Washington State University created a fluid with negative mass by cooling rubidium atoms to just a small fraction of a degree above absolute zero.
This implies there is a good possibility negative matter exists and can be engineered.
The gravitational field of an object made of positive matter causes all other objects, including those made of negative matter, to move towards it.
The gravitational field of an object made of negative matter would have the reverse effect, thus, it would cause all other objects, made of both positive and negative matter, to move away from it.
This reverse gravity property is proposed as the origin of dark energy as clumps of negative matter, held together by electric charges, would push all other matter away and lead to the expanding universe.
Cavorite would also interact very differently with space-time than positive matter.
A positive matter object (M+ in the illustration below) bends space-time to create a concave distortion, like a heavy weight placed on a suspended rubber sheet. But a negative matter object (M- in the illustration below) has the opposite effect and creates a convex distortion, similar to a mound.
The concave distortion of positive matter attracts other matter by having it rotate (orbit) or fall towards the distortion. But the convex distortion of negative matter pushes other matter away as it falls down the sides of the mound.
Using negative matter as a propulsion system was first proposed by Robert Forward in a 1990 paper titled “Negative Matter Propulsion.”
A cavorite-powered propulsion system can reproduce all the propulsion characteristics associated with UAP.
It can enable powerful acceleration and deceleration, abrupt maneuvers, hover in strong winds, and other characteristics associated with UAP.
The properties of negative matter even explain how the craft fly at supersonic and hypersonic speeds without creating sonic booms.
This is a result of the convex space-time distortion created by negative matter that was described above.
As the craft containing the cavorite moves at high speed, the convex distortion continues to be created ahead of it, diverging the parallel space-time geodesic lines as seen in the figure below.
The divergence allows the craft to fly through a tunnel in space-time devoid of air. And with no air, there are no sonic booms.
There is also no friction and no heating, even at very high Mach speeds. The concept also applies to traveling through water, so it is consistent with transmedium travel.
I have proposed two different methods for propulsion systems that employ cavorite in the Tic Tac and Reverse Engineering Program articles cited above, so I will not repeat those here.
The purpose of this article is to show how the UAP shapes are sculpted by their propulsion technology.
The common denominator to many of the shapes is that they exhibit some degree of roundness.
Tic Tac’s, spheres, eggs, and discs all have degrees of roundness. Triangles fall outside this observation, but they do have three or four round, brightly lit devices on the underside of their fuselage.
The roundness is very likely related to achieving the proper space-time disturbance necessary for the propulsion system. But roundness can also cause issues for the craft at hover and slow speeds.
When a craft using cavorite slows down or hovers, the divergence of the space-time geodesics also becomes less pronounced, eventually forming the convex distortion that looks like a mound, as described above.
The natural tendency, especially for rounded shapes, is to follow the geodesic lines and tumble down the side of the mound, so the UAP would roll away and be unable to remain in one spot.
In order to avoid the tumble and displacement, the vehicle must be designed to settle down over the convex distortion without rolling away.
The following are applications of this concept to several UAP shapes:
Discs
In a previous article titled "Why do UFO discs wobble?,” I described the wobble effect that has been reported for discs when they slow down or hover.
The descriptions are similar to a spinning coin during its last rotations before laying flat on a surface.
This wobble effect was confirmed by Lieutenant Ryan Graves, who posted on X that the Gimbal object also wobbled post video cut-out.
This wobble is caused by the spinning of the disc as it settles over the convex space-time distortion.
The disc shape, whether pointed at the bottom like Gimbal or flatter, is designed to make the disc spin around a tight radius until it settles flat or at an angle. The shape prevents the disc from rolling away. See the illustration below.
Eggs
One of the reasons eggs evolved their shape is because many bird species build nests on branches and cliffs.
If the eggs were more spherical, they could roll away and fall. But the conical design makes them roll in a tight circle, keeping them safe. The same applies to egg-shaped UAP.
As they slow down and hover, the craft rolls in a tight circle over the convex distortion until it settles down, preventing it from rolling away. See the illustration below.
Tic Tacs
Tic Tacs have cylindrical bodies and can readily roll away from the convex space-time distortion. But they were also witnessed by Commander Fravor to have their own version of the wobble as they hover and settle down over the convex distortion.
In the article “Navy pilot recalls encounter with UFO: 'I think it was not from this world,’” Fravor described the Tic Tac hovering above the disturbed water as he descended to intercept:
“We look down, we see a white disturbance in the water, like something's under the surface, and the waves are breaking over, but we see next to it, and it's flying around, and it's this little white Tic Tac, and it's moving around — left, right, forward, back, just random."
In other interviews, he described the Tic Tac as bouncing around like a ping pong ball.
What feature of the Tic Tac’s shape causes it to bounce around as it settles instead of rolling away?
That is either the primary or secondary role of the appendages at the bottom of the cylinder.
As the Tic Tac begins to hover, it will roll and tumble until the appendages stop its side motion. It will then roll and tumble in the opposite way with the appendages again stopping the motion.
The process continues until it eventually settles down without rolling away. See the illustration below.
Triangles
Triangles do not fit into the observations of erratic wobbling and tumbling because they are structural flat surfaces that do not roll.
They are typically described as having three bright round lights at the triangle’s vertices.
Assuming these are part of the cavorite-fueled propulsion system, the flat triangles can settle on the convex distortion and appear steady and stable in the sky when hovering.
Spheres
Though some spheres have been described to move and shift as if inside a larger bubble, most descriptions of hovering spheres report that they “appeared to remain stationary in winds aloft,” to quote the original UAPTF report.
My explanation is that I do not believe spheres use cavorite in their propulsion systems, therefore, they would not have to settle on a convex space-time distortion.
I wrote about a possible propulsion system for spheres using the Meissner effect in the article “Can Spheres Fly?” This propulsion system would allow spheres to easily hover in high winds and accelerate and turn quickly, but not with the agility of the larger cavorite-fueled vehicles.
In summary, the shapes of several observed UAP are compatible with the need to keep the UAP in a tight geometric space as it settles on a convex space-time distortion created by a negative matter-based propulsion system.
The spheres do not fit the observations and are likely powered by a less exotic, though still very advanced, propulsion technology.
After examining the variety of shapes, the question that comes to mind is, ‘Why are there so many?’
My best guess is that it is related to the mission they are performing.
A modern air force has many different aircraft with different designs, all optimized for their role.
A Non-Human Intelligence (NHI) presence on Earth would have the same.
I also can’t rule out that there is more than one NHI. Different NHI’s may employ different technologies and design philosophies, adding to the variety of shapes.
And, lastly, there is the possibility that, in addition to NHI, some of the shapes belong to our civilization as part of black programs or even reverse-engineered NHI technology, as I proposed in the article “Reverse Engineering UFOs and the Alien Reproduction Vehicles.”
