If I had a idea for propellant-less propulsion who would I contact to evaluate it?

Prior physics student with lots of book knowledge but total newb when it comes to actually finding investors and making things happen. That and my severe lack of a social life. I know a little bit from what I have read about non-disclosure agreements and patenting but don't have much financial leverage. I am some what convinced (but still want to test it to be sure), that the idea should work. However, it requires the right tools and equipment, but I believe I know exactly what to do. There should be some one out there interested in this sort of thing I would think. After a while of thinking about it and scouting NASA to see what they have and running into what seemed like multiple dead ends I thought maybe I would just ask here. Any ideas? Thanks in advance.

I suppose folks will never discover it because there is no motivation to discover it. Nobody would wan't it because it doesn't match up to their p1=p2+p3 conservation of momentum laws. I bet stuff like this is where kids get the idea that all the laws of physics have been discovered and there is no reason to go into the field of physics. They may as well become and investor and manufacture tons of garbage to pollute our planet and sell to their children to inherit. Maybe we are destined for extinction.

Well I think I'm done ranting. Anyways I am sure it conserves momentum but not in a way that most would understand.

The first step is a patent to protect you idea.

If it violates any laws of physics - such as conservation of momentum or energy - it is not going to work. I believe it is not possible to patent inventions which contravene laws of physics.
