Abstract
Results of a continuing investigation of the propulsive potential of Mach effects ? the fluctuation of the rest masses of objects that store internal energy as they are accelerated by external forces ? obtained in the past year or so are reported. Two chief lines of investigation have been pursued: testing Mach-Lorentz thrusters (MLTs) and exploration of the ?bulk acceleration? conjecture.
