They're a spy shop run out of the DOD, as I recall; the CIA is
independent, sort of.

They're real, all right.


 profound question 
 
 Honestly, I had never heard of agency until now.
 Googling DIA didn't produce any relevant links. This was surprising
 since googling CIA produces many relevant links.

The CIA is far more above board about a lot of their activities, and
they do stuff like publish the CIA Factbook which has heaps of useful
information about the political world around us.

As far as I know the DIA doesn't do anything public.


 
 Now I see if you google Defense Intelligence Agency you do get some relevant 
 links.

LENR serve as a new high-energy-density explosive? It is ironic isn't it?
CF dismissed by DOE and the patent office, and yet potentially important to
DOD.   However, I think the potential for concern is very real.   

 

Yup. Absolutely.

 

Going back to Robert Forward we find the idea of really cold fusion . plus
the realization that bosons could be involved in LENR in a higher temp range
than with the Bose condensate (i.e. a transient condensate at ambient) .
and the realization that the very high effective pressure inside a metal
matrix is essentially the same effect as cryogenic confinement, in terms of
limiting degrees of freedom - plus realizing that palladium-hydride is
superconductive at low temperature . are any of these factors synergistic?

 

. it very likely that near absolute zero the rate of reaction could
possibly be poised to go into a rapid chain-reaction mode, if there is a
stable BEC and extremely high loading. That is the scary part, especially if
it were perfected by our enemies first and the first evidence we see of it
is Tel Aviv being leveled, for instance. That scenario is likely one of many
reasons why the Israelis have been deeply involved in the RD, and we
probably only see the tip of that iceberg.

 

From time to time, there have been divergent opinions expressed here on
whether or not this military aspect is actually already well-known to a few
in the Pentagon, from a black project perhaps (assuming it is real) - and
then that secret knowledge is what has translated down the food chain into
what we see as the incredible level of official neglect given to the whole
field since 1989 .?

 

IIRC - Jed has led the chorus for the argument that goes something like
this: our military bureaucracy is really not that smart and there is no
high-level conspiracy to quash LENR - just basic ignorance. The bureaucrats
could not keep it secret, in any event. 

 

I hope that argument turns out to be correct, but I suspect something more
sinister. They cannot keep many secrets, but there are a few that could be
worth protecting at extraordinary cost.

Jones,

I believe you meant Robert Carroll, not Robert Forward.
