Currently a mechanical engineering professor at Rowan University is conducting a NASA-funded study to build and test a Black Light Rocket Engine. The Black Light process is the brainchild of Randell L. Mills, a medical doctor, whose Grand Unified Theory of Classical Quantum Mechanics holds that in a hydrogen atom the electron can drop to a state lower than the lowest state allowed by quantum mechanics, which would release vast amounts of energy. Mills's patent for extracting this energy was granted in February 2000.

The same month that news of the Rowan study broke, the American Physical Society, rather like King Canute trying to command the tide, issued a statement announcing its concern that "misguided or fraudulent claims of perpetual-motion machines and other sources of unlimited free energy are proliferating. Such devices directly violate the most fundamental laws of Nature, laws that have guided the scientific advances that are transforming our world."
