Kenneth Shoulders

From LENR

Early Life and Career

Ken Shoulders was a physicist who gained notoriety for his work in investigating John Hutchison's experiments in 1979. Recruited by the CIA in 1982, Shoulders was awarded several patents for his work, particularly in the field of Exotic Vacuum Objects (EVOs). He developed a method for creating these unique objects, which was later claimed to have been replicated by Lockheed Martin without crediting Shoulders.

Exotic Vacuum Objects (EVOs)

Shoulders' notable contribution to the scientific community lies in his discovery and study of Exotic Vacuum Objects. These structures, as described by Shoulders, are dissociated from ordinary reality, making them capable of feats such as passing through matter and teleportation of contained materials. Shoulders emphasized that these EVOs operate without direct interaction with ordinary matter, placing them in a category separate from traditional physical objects.

The EVO Theory and Patents

Although Shoulders was not a theoretician per se, he offered a detailed description and method for creating EVOs. He notably referred to them as "EVs," signifying "strong electrons," a concept he hoped would be classified differently at the patent office. Even when faced with classification challenges, Shoulders took proactive steps to disseminate information about his work, notably by distributing a book on EVOs to a number of people after submitting the patents.

Legacy and Recognition

Ken Shoulders' groundbreaking work on Exotic Vacuum Objects continues to provoke interest and discussion, particularly in the realms of advanced propulsion, energy generation, and materials science. Although the broader scientific community's consensus on EVOs remains varied, Shoulders' patents and the acknowledgment of his work by entities such as Lockheed Martin underscore the significance of his contributions.
