Vacuum to get rid of corona.

Space (orbit really) so tiny forces can be detected and measured.  

A steady one G acceleration would be pretty impressive, and would
settle the issue.

Yeah.  Investment not recommended.

As for our asymmetrical capacitor fellow, there has to be some big
errors in the derivation.  I watched part of his lecture, where he did
note that this force endured even when the HV was turned off, and that
it should therefore accelerate continuously.  Which it doesn't,
despite his theory.  He knew that this was a problem, but figured that
it was fixable.  Hmm.

That fellow reminds me of the inventor I met, described in the SED
thread "Non-Inertial Navigation Technology" (July 2020).  That company
still exists, and he still toils away.  I don't know where the money
comes from.
