From what I have read over the past few days cloaking (from radar) was the objective but during one of the trials, the ship did disappear and "transported" to a different location and then "came back"

Most Sailors were violently sick and a few were "melted into the superstructure" of the ship.

As far as size, from what one of the articles indicated, the generators, coils, magnets ... etc were huge so a dingy would not be an option. Why it was tested with a full crew complement seem ludicrous but the government has a history of doing stupid things like that so it would not surprise me n the least.

I guess the thing that makes it unbelievable for me is that there is no indication that further study was done. The ability to transport something “through space and time” seems like it would be a very desirable ability to possess and there is no indication that we can do it today. One would think that in 60 years we might have refined it a bit.
