Antigravity, the wave of the future or 'flat world' thinking?
Antigravity News and Space Drive Technology http://www.padrak.com/agn/ If it's good enough for Bowing: http://www.janes.com/aerospace/civil...0729_1_n.shtml http://www.spacedaily.com/news/rocketscience-02t.html http://www.aeronautics.ru/archive/gr...gravitsapa.htm London - Aug 01, 2002 A report published July 29 by Jane's Defense Weekly says Boeing has acknowledged it is conducting a variety of anti-gravity experiments that could rewrite the economics of conventional aviation technologies. According to Jane's Defense Weekly (JDW) the research is being done at Boeing's famous Phantom Works facility in Seattle where Boeing is working to gain the services of the Russian scientist Dr Evgeny Podkletnov who claims he has developed anti-gravity devices in Russia and Finland. http://www.computercrowsnest.com/sfn...ws0902_2.shtml Podkletnov’s research may be the product of untamed genius, or the product of a misguided lapse of judgement (take your pick, depending on which scientific camp you belong to). http://triballi.mybravenet.com/rusgrav.html By Jonathon Leake. The Sunday Times - London 04-08-02 Evgeny Podkletnov watched in annoyance as clouds of smoke drifted across the laboratory from his colleague's newly lit pipe and clung to his delicate research apparatus. The fumes would mean hours of recalibration, but the smoker was his superior and Podkletnov, a quiet, shy man, felt unable to stop him. Then, in the midst of his annoyance, he spotted something peculiar. As the smoke drifted over his machine it suddenly changed direction, shooting upwards to form a bizarre column shape above it. At the time it seemed no more than a curiosity. But that observation, in an obscure university in Finland 10 years ago, would soon change his life and prompt some of the biggest aerospace companies to come knocking at his door. For Podkletnov had unwittingly discovered a device that, if his claims are to be believed, can change gravity itself. ... http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/sci/tech/2159487.stm Q&A: Boeing and anti-gravity http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/sci/tech/2157975.stm Boeing tries to defy gravity http://www.gravity-society.org/ http://www.gravity-society.org/rei.htm On the Mechanism for a Gravity Effect using Type II Superconductors Glen A. Robertson Advanced Systems and Technology Office NASA-Marshall Space Flight Center Huntsville, Alabama 35812 Abstract: In this paper, we formulate a percent masschange equation based on Woodward's transient mass shiftand the Cavendish balance equations applied to superconductor Josephson junctions. A correction to thetransient mass shift equation is presented due to the emission of the mass energy from the superconductor.The percentage of mass change predicted by the equationwas estimated against the maximum percent mass change reported by Podkletnov in his gravity shielding experiments. An experiment is then discussed, which could shed lighton the transient mass shift near superconductor andverify the corrected gravitational potential. ----------------------------------------- Fabrication of Large Bulk Ceramic Superconductor Disksfor Gravity Modification Experiments and Performanceof YBCO Disks Under e.m. Field Excitation R. Koczor and D. Noever NASA-Marshall Space Flight Center Huntsville, Alabama 35812 Report AIAA 99-2147 Abstract: We have previously reported on investigationspertaining to the measurements of gravitational fieldchanges in the vicinity of a large rotating Type IIsuperconducting disk. Published reports indicate thattest masses have been observed to lose up to 2% of theirweight when in vicinity of such rotating disks. We haveproduced 30 cm (nominal) diameter disks using YBa2Cu3O7-xand BiSCCO. In addition, we have performed tests on theinteractions between smaller YBCO disks and AC levitationfields and RF fields, using a sensitive gravimeter tomonitor and record the local gravity field above thesuperconductors. We have not yet duplicated the reportedexperimental protocols, including rotation and levitationof a large two-layered YBCO disk. Static disk experimentsto date have uncovered no measurable and repeatable gravityeffect for the conditions tested to within the sensitivityof the gravimeter (which has a noise level on the orderof 10 nano-G or less). ---------------------------------- A possible correlation between gravity and hightemperature superconductivity Harald Reiss ABB Alstom Power Technology Ltd. Speyerer Strasse 4, D-69115 Heidelberg, Germany Abstract: The weight of a pile of BiSrCaCuO-superconductor pellets of the 2212 typewas studied when coolinig it in liquid nitrogen, andthe results compared to normal or non-conductors, instandard volumes and under the same temperature andheat transfer conditions. Two different experimentshave been performed: (1) Measurement of apparent weightwhen dipping samples housed in a sample holder into thecoolant, under thermal equilibrium, and (2) measurementof total weight of cryostat, cryogenic liquid, sampleholder and samples. Both experiments yield a smallincrease of the superconductor sample weight. Applicationof an external magnetic field eliminated the observedeffect, which indicates a possible correlation ofsuperconductivity with gravity. A thorough discussion isadded to the measured data. ----------------------------------------- Precise measurement of gravity variations during a total solar eclipse Qian-shen Wang, Xin-she Yang, Chuan-zhen Wu, Hong-gang Guo, Hong-chen Liu, Chang-chai Hua (Beijing, Inst. Geophys. & Leeds U.) Published in Phys. Rev. D62, 041101 (2000) Abstract: The variations of gravity were measured with a high precision LaCoste-Romberg D gravimeter during a total solar eclipse to investigate the effect of a solar eclipse on the gravitational field. The observed anomaly (7.0 +/- 2.7)x10^-8 m/s^2 during the eclipse implies that there may be a shielding property of gravitation. --------------------------------------- Local Gravitoelectromagnetic Effects on a Superconductor M. Agop, C. Gh. Buzea, and P. Nica ) To be published in Physica C (in press) Abstract: Maxwell's and London's generalized equations, generalized Meissner effect and gravitational shielding in an electromagnetic field are obtained. In such a context, we show that a neutral particle beam in an infinitely thin superconducting cylinder placed in the Earth's gravitoelectric field is focused, and that the penetration depth increases with the pulsation of the electromagnetic field. |
