No one ever really believe the EmDrive worked. It was just the media getting super over excited about it, but no one with any actual credibility ever gave it much credence.
This however is actually getting attention a real scientists so it is a little different.
NASA was testing the EM Drive. To me this feels exactly the same. I would probably also include Tabby's star as another analogy.
I want it to work, but I'm not getting my hopes up yet.
