Any thoughts on the authentisity of this device as a potential spacecraft ?

Web page

They include the following movie a claimed tethered test flight;

video of nylon tethered craft

Anyone know if the method used in the demonstration model would work outside of Earths atmosphere or is this some bad astronomy hoax?

The people who put up the site claim that the craft uses asymmetrical Poynting Flow for generating thrust.
