Episode Title:
EVERYTHING We Know About the Universe Is Wrong, NASA Physicist Just Exposed It All
Date: December 29, 2025
Host: Clayton Morris (Redacted.inc)
Guest: Dr. Waiping Yu (NASA physicist, Crew Spacecraft Subsystem Manager, co-host, A Neighbor's Choice podcast)
Episode Overview
This episode of Redacted News explores the possibility that core scientific concepts relating to our understanding of the universe—especially in physics—are fundamentally flawed or incomplete. Host Clayton Morris invites Dr. Waiping Yu, a physicist at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center, to discuss everything from anti-gravity technology and the existence of advanced extraterrestrial craft, to a radical new theory on the true building blocks of the universe, challenging the validity of core models such as the electron and even quantum mechanics. The conversation is a mind-bending mix of skepticism towards mainstream science, open speculation about hidden technologies, and the presentation of Dr. Yu’s alternative view of how the universe really works.
Key Discussion Points & Insights
1. Are We Alone in the Universe and What Tech Exists?
- Clayton introduces recurring evidence and testimonies that suggest non-human craft and even alien bodies have been uncovered and are now part of congressional records.
- NASA footage and military whistleblower claims cited as strong evidence for advanced, non-terrestrial technologies.
“Everybody with a brain knows this unless you're being willfully ignorant about it.” – Clayton (01:41)
2. Three Eye Atlas (3i Atlas) - Alien Craft or Natural Phenomena?
- Discussion around the 3i Atlas object near Earth: some claim it’s a recurring alien “craft” tied to ancient structures on Mars.
- Dr. Yu notes NASA calls it a comet, emphasizing skepticism that biological beings could survive such journeys—if anything, the vehicle might be robotic.
“I do believe we have aliens ... but whether aliens can be traveling themselves ... I believe it could have robotic beings.” – Dr. Yu (06:36)
- Dr. Yu finds the object's shape and motion peculiar but leans toward natural explanations: “could be natural phenomena ... it's similar to comets.” (10:04)
3. Advanced Propulsion: Anti-Gravity & Magnetic Forces
- The conversation pivots to how reported UFOs violate the known limits of physics, particularly their acceleration and maneuverability.
- Dr. Yu argues the observed feats are not only physically possible but point to “anti-gravity propulsion”—a technology he claims is within reach and essentially involves harnessing magnetic forces.
“I do believe anti gravity propulsion is real ... I'm a firm believer anti gravity technology is right at the door.” – Dr. Yu (14:34, 17:40)
- Dr. Yu describes purchasing a small anti-gravity device—privately, not via NASA—as proof of concept: it can levitate when energized via high-voltage electricity and ultrasound (18:42).
4. The True Source of All Energy
- Dr. Yu expounds that all energetic phenomena in the universe—solar, chemical, nuclear—reduce fundamentally to magnetism.
“All energies only from one source power the universe ... magnetism only.” – Dr. Yu (20:04)
- Magnetism, according to Yu, is behind both electricity and gravity; gravity, in his view, is a “magnetic phenomenon.”
5. Plasma, Lasers, and the Disappearance of MH370
- The discussion references plasmoid technologies (orb-shaped electromagnetic weapons) and the viral theories surrounding the disappearance of Malaysian Airlines Flight MH370.
- Dr. Yu says high-powered directed energy weapons (like lasers) can, in principle, manipulate objects and possibly explain mysterious disappearances if one accepts the evidence.
“This is so called high directional weapon … high power means ... they combined all the one day because they directed.” – Dr. Yu (27:25)
6. UAPs/UFOs, NASA, and Openness
- Clayton asks about internal NASA attitudes: Dr. Yu claims most NASA colleagues privately accept extraterrestrial life is plausible, if not probable.
“Among my colleague ... they think about it the same way as me, that we are not alone.” – Dr. Yu (33:07)
- Regarding NASA’s sometimes-criticized secretive behavior (e.g., ISS video feeds shutting off), Dr. Yu insists NASA overall is open, with any redaction tied to national security, not deception.
“I personally ... have not seen any purposeful ... deceive the public. No. NASA is the best, most open organization I ever worked with in my life.” – Dr. Yu (35:12)
7. Radical Physics: “Everything We Know Is Wrong”
Dr. Yu’s Three Keys to Unlocking the Universe (45:00–78:00)
a. The Non-Existence of Electrons, Protons, etc.
- Dr. Yu claims that commonly accepted fundamental particles—like electrons, protons, quarks—do not and cannot exist as we are taught.
- He argues the standard atomic and quantum models are “garbage” built on a foundational error.
“So first page we said atoms composed of electron and the nucleus. Exactly. Wrong.” – Dr. Yu (47:32)
b. Photon as a Fictitious Concept
- He further claims photons are not real; light is not particulate but a wave that moves through a “magnetic medium” (akin to the old ether).
“Photon is completely ... does not exist. Light basically is a wave motion ... you need to have a medium ... I call them magnetic medium.” – Dr. Yu (50:35)
c. The Universe Is Built from a Single Type of Particle: The Magnetic Dipole
- Yu’s ultimate claim: everything is built from the magnetic dipole—tiny magnets with a north and south pole.
“Only one particle, magnetic particle ... just a little magnet. This is the only particle can exist in this universe.” – Dr. Yu (52:24)
- He demonstrates why ‘monocharge’ particles (solely positive, negative, or neutral) are self-contradictory, and only dipoles can be stable and self-consistent at every scale.
Consequences and Implications
- If Dr. Yu is correct, the quantum mechanical model collapses: “Quantum mechanics ... is garbage. The same language as you.” (52:24)
- Every atomic and subatomic process, including nuclear energy releases, are simply magnetic repulsion events, not splitting electrons.
- The value of this paradigm: dramatic simplification and the possibility of vast energy and propulsion breakthroughs.
8. Impact on Space Technology & Propulsion
- Under Yu’s model, future rockets and space missions could be powered by anti-gravity via electromagnetic “rail gun” style launches—no need for propellant, saving 98% of current launch mass and cost (63:54).
“The solution is if we use anti gravity technology ... basically we just use real gun ... electromagnetic propulsion ... we do not consuming any chemical propellant and we can launch them ... faster and cheap.” – Dr. Yu (63:54)
- Elon Musk is mentioned; Yu says he has tried to reach out, believing this paradigm could render chemical rockets obsolete.
Notable Quotes & Memorable Moments
-
On the non-existence of the electron:
“I will tell you, it does not exist ... so neither positron and proton can exist. What that means? That means the atom model ... will be wrong ... quantum mechanics ... will be completely wrong.” – Dr. Yu (47:15–48:40) -
On questioning education:
“Everything I've learned in school was a joke then ... everything I learned in science class was a joke.” – Clayton (61:44) -
On building the universe:
“It makes sense ... the only particles that exist are just little magnet particles.” – Clayton (52:32) -
On impact for technology:
“We can reduce this by 98% weight and effort and use only ... electricity. You do not consuming any other substance.” – Dr. Yu (66:16)

Flow and Tone
The tone throughout is probing, open-minded, and at times deliberately incredulous—Clayton acts as surrogate for average listeners, repeatedly voicing disbelief as Dr. Yu shatters scientific orthodoxy. Yu himself is earnest, occasionally technical but always keen to make his ideas accessible and disruptive. The dialogue is dynamic, punctuated by humility on both sides and a willingness to pursue paradigm-shifting ideas to their (radical) conclusions.
Closing Thoughts
The episode ends with Clayton marveling at the “world turned upside down” by Dr. Yu’s alternative physics, promising a future Q&A to address inevitable listener questions. Dr. Yu’s central thesis — that the universe is made far more simply than tradition allows, with paradigm-shattering implications for science and technology — is presented as both challenge and revelation to anyone willing to reconsider everything they learned in school.
