... Researchers and scholars have posited that supposedly empty space is home to various forms of energy, some virtual and some real. This state of affairs has been referred to as the 'quantum vacuum', zero point fields and polarizable vacuum to name just a few (Puthoff, 2001;Haisch & Rueda, 2005;Santos, 2021). Davies (2001) described the vacuum in terms of a kind of energy state that is "real and full of quantum noise". ...

... We can now modify gravity by imposing the resonance ZPF inertial mass from [16] where m i = Γ z v r (hv r /c 2 ) onto eq. 31 which serves to suggest that all point masses result from external spacetime curvature and that all masses have the same zero-point curvature 4 as seen through ...

... They might serve as a foundation for the origin of zitter, since zitter is linked to the vacuum fluctuations. 90 have been published since 1980, showing that a massless point-charge oscillator accelerating through the zero-point field-ZPF-will experience a Lorentz force coming from the magnetic components of the zero-point energy fluctuations or zpe that are directly proportional to acceleration, and therefore deriving the Newtonian mechanical relation F ¼ ma directly from electrodynamics. Forces would then be originated by electromagnetic quantum vacuum appearing as inertial mass, with huge implications in all of physics, since the origin of Einstein's principle of equivalence would be explained by this mass generating mechanism based on ZPF. ...

... Some planets that happen to orbit around these stars, mainly of G spectral type, could have had plenty of time, not only to generate life in its most complex forms but also to develop intelligence at extreme levels, up to the ability to build up unimaginable technologies, such as those able to allow these intelligences to roam undisturbed in the galaxy and perhaps beyond. In essence, some intelligences may have gained the capability to migrate anywhere (Deardorff, 2005;Finney, 1985;Jones, 1981;Newman et al., 1981). At this point, the Drake equation should be enriched by one more multiplicative parameter: the migration parameter (Walters et al., 1980). ...

... Since A. Einstein [1,2,3] the general theory of Relativity has shown that the space container could be curved by mass objects contained in it [4] at the cosmological scale and also at a microscopic scale where it explains the Zitterbewegung [5]. The tensor analyis shows that energy stresses the space-time [6] and we know that inertia is the result of a reaction of the zero point field (ZPF) of vacuum [7,8,5]. ...

... Physical effects resulting from zero-point energy (ZPE) are well established ( [1], Chapter 3). This has led to several proposals and reviews discussing the extraction of ZPE to use as a power source [2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9]. The ZPE extraction methods usually involve ZPE in the form of electromagnetic zero-point fields (ZPFs). ...

... guides the actualization of the processes of creation or annihilation in the different regions of the three-dimensional quantum vacuum) having the general form where is the Planck energy density (the maximum energy density that can be sustained at the Planck scale), which characterizes space in absence of matter, while is the quantum vacuum energy density in the centre of a material object of mass m and volume V. By invoking the results obtained by several authors (such as Haisch et al. [66][67][68], Santos [69][70][71][72], Hajdukovic [73], Consoli [74][75][76][77], Sbitnev [78][79][80][81][82], as well as Chiatti and Licata [61-64, 83, 84]), this model of timeless threedimensional quantum vacuum defined by a variable energy density corresponding to elementary processes of creation/annihilation of particles leads to interesting perspectives of unification of gravitational interaction, dark energy, dark matter and quantum behaviour of matter in a picture in which the non-local information associated with the quantum potential of the vacuum turns out to play an important role. Moreover, it opens the possibility to go beyond Standard Model physics by interpreting the Higgs boson as an emergent fact, in particular as the result of more fundamental specific fluctuations of the quantum vacuum energy [85][86][87][88][89][90]. ...

... This line of thinking emerged from reflections on the work of Santos, 2012, in which he discussed the significance of zero-point energy fluctuations in correlation of quantum phenomena at different spatial points. A suggestion, put forward by Santos, 2012 in which he alluded to the possibility that zero-point energy may be responsible for maintaining the electron stability within atoms via a resonance-type interactions led the author to reexamine the theoretical work of Haisch, Rueda, and Puthoff, 1997, Puthoff, 2001, Rueda and Haisch, 2005. This along with the findings of Rancourt (2011) and Rancourt and Tattersall (2015) led to an interesting conclusion, particularly when entertaining new ideas as to the possible nature of gravity as a pushing force or pressure. ...

... In the case of gravitation this exchange unit is called the graviton. Gravity is also closely related to inertia, which has recently been also equated with a flow of energy [38]. In Mormon doctrine the light of Christ, Holy Ghost, chi or prana -the light which is in all things; is a true photonic light in the physical sense. ...

... Under the assumption that scattering of the ZPF radiation takes place at the level of quarks and electrons, they obtain both Newton's equation of motion F ¼ ma and its relativistic covariant generalization. 86,91 Additionally, they propose that this scattering must take place at the Compton frequency of the particle. This interpretation of mass lead them directly to the de Broglie relation that characterizes the wave nature of that particle in motion, kB ¼ h/p, thereby connecting electrodynamics to the quantum wave nature of matter. ...
