Antigravity can 'only' have what might be considered an on-board application, and so, anyone who has either a vested-interest, or money, or great faith in it, simply doesn't know about the enormous potential of the yet undiscovered system, that can have no equal. While it does require a moving part spinning at a very high rate of Rpm's, it's the only way to generate the principle dynamic force that will enable an altogether powerfully new efficient form of 'independent' propulsion that will enable a like vehicle/craft to travel space in the extreme, to anywhere that may be at anytime (read it weep!).

Re: [Vo]:100 years 1912 beep beep beep and aliens
I am under the impression that the antigravity concept has been discussed in details on vortex before. Unfortunately, I was not privileged to be involved in that discussion so I have one concept that seems to be required for it to function. Assume that a mass of material is shielded by an antigravity system of some type. The same mass requires a certain amount of energy to raise it upward a meter without the system. My suspicion is that at least this amount of energy must be expended by the antigravity device if the same final mass displacement is achieved. The conservation of energy would require this to happen in my opinion. Has this issue been covered before in the collective?

RE: [Vo]:100 years 1912 beep beep beep and aliens
Considering the never-ending conundrum of whether we are alone I came up with the following 500 word short story. I submitted it to a local science fiction community for a writing contest. While the story didn't win any prizes it was one of the finalists. I suspect Stephen Hawking might find aspects amusing... or not. ;-) Enjoy! __ THE SOURCE Were we alone? Surely that wasn't the case. But no one had ever answered our calls. When we finally mastered interstellar space travel we felt it was time to find out if that was truly the case. We soon discovered life existed outside the nurturing confines of our home system. Not only that, life was sprinkled everywhere, generously so. Then came the surprise. DNA, appeared to be the only blueprint used to build life throughout the universe. Even more astonishing was the fact that DNA samples taken from all our travels revealed that life seemed to have originated from a singular genetic source, origins unknown, including our own. Externally, life everywhere looked different, but underneath tissue, hide, hair, scales, and feathers, we were all related. How could evolution throughout the galaxy have spawned such incredible genetic uniformity? We obviously don't know how evolution really works; that's how we consoled ourselves. We eventually discovered advanced civilizations, some having even achieved space travel. They could have visited us long ago had they chosen to travel our way. Why hadn't they visited us? Clearly they must have been aware of our presence, our radio broadcasts. We had to know. We chose a candidate; a civilization we had repeatedly transmitted greetings to in the past. We dispatched our finest emissary ship and entered their solar system as non-threateningly as we could, all the while continuously broadcasting our peaceful intentions. We settled our ship as delicately as we could, close to a metropolis, next to what appeared to be a hastily gathered assemblage of officials - witnesses to the historic event. The ship's hatch opened. Dignitaries and ambassadors filed out one-by-one. Our greeters shuffled nervously, all the while remaining quiet. Eventually we broke the silence. We extended warm greetings, wishing them peace and prosperity. Finally, we asked them Why haven't you answered our calls? We wish you no harm. Leave, immediately! was their answer. It was too late for us, they added. They demanded we cease all further communication, especially anything that could give away their position. And then they scurried back to the safety of their city, leaving us standing alone. We raced home, entering our system just in time to witness the armada assembling. Like a swarm of hungry hornets, black needles kilometers in length fired deadly energy beams that screamed through our home world's atmosphere, slicing through continents and oceans as if cutting through soft butter. The tiniest bacterium to the largest leviathans in our oceans, everything was sucked into vast geostationary interstellar refineries parked above. Molecular structures evolved over eons were unraveled, then recombined into new matrices more suitable to the nutritional requirements of an unknown consumer. After the armada's storage facilities were filled they sterilized our ravaged planet with bursts of deadly gamma radiation. The surface was then reseeded with a single bacterium possessing a unique genetic strain, a hauntingly familiar source. And then they left, content to let evolution once again grow to fruition. We discovered we were alone. __ C 2012 Steven Vincent Johnson Regards, Steven Vincent Johnson www.OrionWorks.com www.zazzle.com/orionworks

Re: [Vo]:100 years 1912 beep beep beep and aliens
Ion-propulsion is highly inefficient, but because it produces only a limited amount of power, the equivalence of a piece of paper resting on your hand (please, whatever you do don't sneeze), it has a limited use. Now, Antigravity is believed to have great potential, especially because it has no moving-parts, but, it is not independent technology, and/or require a highly specialized condition/base in-order for a vehicle to operate, which, renders it mostly unuseable. Now, the undiscovered potential of the system I propose, does consist of A single moving-part, however, it is the only way the essential principle force can be generated so an altogether 'different' type of vehicle/craft to do what is currently sought-after in one way or another. There is also an enthusiastic 'following' of people favor or support a 'nonlinear-mode' of travel (opposed to 'linear' ) for traversing the vast distances of space in a very reduced time-frame,,, that wil supposedly use powerful electromagnets to produce a gravitational- force so-powerful that it can bend or distort space, so as to by-pass it altogether. A wormhole, blackhole and/or hyper/warp-drive system (hint hint, there's only one that comes close), are presumed to enable F.T.L. (faster-than-light) travel, thereby much time and enormous amounts of food, air, liquids, etc, in-order to make even a trip to the nearest star. Well now, it doesn't take a rocket-scientist to realize that this so-called time-saving method is at the very-least impractical if not suicidal, because such a device would require an unobtainable amount of energy, and only to end in self destruction. Now, as it is stands, electromagnetic-properties have the potential to attract/pull a thousand X's their own weight, and altho that is based-on direct-contact, a large percentage of that should be obtainable. Also, when a very powerful electromagnetic-force is powerly used to controll C-force, it will uniqquesly combine to create or generate an all new form of energy. Anyway, given certain dimensions within a spinning rotor assembly, 1-lb of weight can potetially generate several tons of Centrifugal (?) or Centripetal (?) force, and so it's very feasible that the overall weight of a certain highly efficient vehicle, can be overtaken The task or goal is to utilize this principle within a system to eliminate mechanical-energy, which would enable a 'State' of Light Energy/Propulsion to be perfected, thus enabling some 'other' vehicle-craft to travel space in the extreme, to any star, that may harbor intelligent life, that may be at anytime in evolution or technological progression. This 'other' system is a highly efficient means of generating a viable new advanced form of propulsion, or energy, that will not only enable any maneuver, but possibly reach speeds in the sub-light range, or ??? If some good in-depth RD was conducted, I am confident the potential of this system would soon be realized, thus enabling our current knowledge of propulsion energy to be completely revised. Presently, there are various aspects at work in our society that are rather relatively easy to observe, such as the average household clothes-washing machine, which, if improperly imbalanced in the spin-cycle, will not spin fast enough, or at all. Also, when a tire is put on the wheel of you vehicle at the local Garage, and is computer balanced with little lead-weights, in order to spin or wear evenly. Under normal circumstances, if a rotor-center was simply imbalanced, it would quickly start to shake, rattle, wobble, and at some point destroy whatever was holding it in place. Simply, an imbalanced rotor assembly or wheel that trys to spin at high-rate or Rpm's, can generate a significant amount of C-force, that will overpower or disable it. And so, this 'other' system essentially enables a high rate of rpm's to be obtained, and to the point it will level-off to a stable controllable manner. Then, it's a simple matter of regulating energy via a very exact/precise timing-order-sequence, and the sky is no longer the limit, nor sapce for that matter. All you have to do then is figure-out away of getting rid of 100 % of this bio-baggage, and/or obtain immortality thru technology,,, and you're good to go. (I know, I didn't 'believe' it either,, but, it's the only thing that hasn't even been considered, of which I am certain will work unlike anything anyone will believe. . It will simply require an old dog (which is really only a spring chicken) to learn a new trick sure it must might be rough! rough! at first, but then you'll find that you'll be able to do alot more than just roll over, and fetch a ball... good boy! ... now speak! /HTML

Re: [Vo]:100 years 1912 beep beep beep and aliens
I am not sure that going radio silent at local distances would be a good thing unless the new technology that replaces radio has major advantages. It would be advantageous to eliminate the wires and fibers that are now strung all over the place but the speed of local communications does not appear to be a problem looking for a solution. A network of small, inexpensive RF type transceivers conveniently located to cover the regions of interest could offer fast reliable communications for the future. The low power required for short range operation would effectively make us appear as radio silent to outsiders. Who knows, LENR power sources for these devices might very well allow them to operate indefinitely. The thought of antigravity devices coming soon is tantalizing. Do you suspect that we are just one discovery short of achieving that goal? Or maybe it has already been observed within a laboratory somewhere but not confirmed, similar to our favorite subject LENR. I wonder if anyone has made observations that suggest strange anomalies in gravitational measurements that have remained unexplained thus far? It is the unexplainable occurrences that hide the important discoveries and things we totally understand are at the level of our current technology.

Earth radio silent? By no means. There are literally thousands of narrow-beam threads of RF energy directed at space satellites which reach far beyond their intended listeners. And when we went to DTV, the amount of effective radiated power from broadcast stations exploded. We radiate more RF energy than we have ever in the past and will continue to do so for many generations to come. T

Maybe this will help if you were looking up into the nightsky thru a telescope, in their direction, they would have already been fully aware of you, and either moved-out of your view, and/or play around with in such a way that you aren't quick enough to even actually realize it Case in point, some of these craft have a reflective surface on their outside skin, and/or a bulb-like dome on the underside,,, and so, a 'Flash' of light can be used in less-time it takes for you to wink, and distract or rediverting your attention I kid you not? So anyway, I suspect that some highly developed form of cold fusion is being used to power the system that is enabling 'them' to be up there, but I am not not an expert on this subject, but am well-versed in the abilities of 'those' powerfully capable highly advanced civilizations, that have to be at least 10 million years older, or somewhere between that, to multi-billions of years further along than us and/or we're so 'new' on the block, that we might (I fear) be referred to as still in our diapers wah!! Something like that, yes, but without all the crafts and stuff. And without the childish and exaggerated tone, too. Paragraphs. The 'globs' are usually called paragraphs. Look it up. Extraterrestrians can be all around us right now, and we just don't notice them. That's what I tend to think. /HTML
Re: [Vo]:100 years 1912 beep beep beep and aliens
I think that Radio signals are irrelevant, because alien civilisations did detect us back in 6000 years ago when we started agriculture and destroyed forests to the crops in larger scale due to urbanisation. Perhaps cities are directly visible from space? Thus Alien's do not need radio frequencies for spotting a civilisations, but they can do it with normal optical wave lengths. We could already spot ourself nearby civilisations directly if we had build permanent colony to the moon 30 years ago as was planed. When industrial revolution happened, also the chemical composition of atmosphere started to change into artificial, so this signature would also be easy to detect some 200 lightyears away from here, even for primitive Earth like civilisations, who has better sense for investing science and space exploration. I think that we could differentiate continent sized details, and of course we could detect traces of artificial chemical components from atmosphere. ―Jouni Sent from my iPad On 21 Feb 2012, at 17:55, David Roberson dlrober...@aol.com wrote: Radio transmissions might be an ancient form of communications to an advanced civilization.

Re: [Vo]:100 years 1912 beep beep beep and aliens
My suspicion is that our use of radio for communication would be considered extremely ancient to any civilizations that may be monitoring us. The changes in carrier modulation that have occurred just within the last 50 years has been astounding. Any relatively nearby civilization(100 light years) would most likely be millions of years removed from us in technology. I can not even begin to speculate as to where our world will find itself in that amount of time if we are still around to ponder things. So, are there other means of communications that exist of which we are unaware? How well do we in fact understand the physical world? It was not that long ago when the laser was inventedsuch a simple in principle device that could have been discovered over 100 years earlier. Now we are watching expectantly as LENR devices are about to become accepted within the physics community so reluctantly. On many occasions I give consideration to the questions that most haunt me: How many wonderful discoveries are there waiting for us to uncover? How can I help to bring these into fruition? Only time will reveal what lies just beyond our reach, but I think the journey along the path toward the future will be exciting.

Advanced civilizations may not use RF communications. Or the signal may be so compressed it looks like noise. However, they will recognize it when they detect it. If they use radio telescopes they will probably realize they have intercepted a signal from a civilization, and not a natural signal. - Jed

Re: [Vo]:100 years 1912 beep beep beep and aliens
Here is the story of the first modulated radio signals 100 years ago. http://marconigraph.com/titanic/wireless/mgy_wireless.html Before that the emission spectrum of the spark transmitter what that of lightning and was dwarfed at interstellar distances by natural sources. After the introduction of the rotating wheel with to interrupt the spark there was a unnatural beep beep beep that was different. Twenty years later these things put out a megawatt. If there wave ever to be a man made ball of lighting it should have came out of one of these fiery pin wheels. Speaking of the time my neighbor gave me a set of encyclopedias when I was in the 5th grade from 1912. It had a picture representing New York sky harbor by 1950. There were wooden sailing ships held up by balloons and a restaurant held up by balloons saying Eat at Joe's. I believe I saw this picture again in Infinite Energy. It had a warfare of the future picture. Men carrying rifles were held up by flapping wing packs. There was a sphere held up by a balloon with a cannon. It had a story about the zeppelin stating that I could carry heavy guns and knock out any heaver that air craft before it came into the range of its small guns. And of course there was the steam locomotive going a a mile a minute. Who could believe that? There were safety stories about the automatic application of the breaks with a trip bar tied to the block system,,what a marvel...no more wrecks..maybe not!! The Titanic and the Olympic were in dry dock as the pride of the British empire. The Titanic sunk after publication 100 years ago this April. So did a third of the series the Britannic. It had stores of the wondrous wireless. These stories were shrouded in the mystery keep by the Marconi company. Sort of like Rossi today. My mother through out the books when I was in school in the 8th grade. I have never been able to find another copy. As I read of Jed and his predictions I wonder will his be bettor or worse. They had the right idea in 1912 but the wrong implementation. No one had a clue of the coming internet until it happened. Some see only tragedy. I see anti-gravity and cold fusion. Frank Znidarsic

Well if they use some kind of quantum entanglement transmission, how could we eavesdrop on them ? So far our RF cone extends 100 light years behind us ( 0 Quite a catch for a random alien in our galaxy to be at the receiving end, anyway if by chance some random alien picked up our signal which would only last as long as he stays inside the cone, then he has to compute where to reply, he probably would send something like, Sorry we're busy right now, please call back later.
