Bologna, January 14, 2011: cold fusion becomes a reality in Italy Prof. S. Focardi (left) and Eng. A. Red (right) to work around the prototype device (reactor Ni-H module 10 kW) during a preliminary test. 15/12/2010 Photo courtesy of the G. Levi. A sensational announcement on cold fusion. It was May 2008 when the blog for the first time I spoke of cold fusion or low energy nuclear reactions, if you prefer, for my highly credible source was a longtime friend who kept me informed of the test to which he was participating. I was so learned that a few years was working in Emilia Romagna, a prototype reactor Nickel-Hydrogen, on the intellect, the tenacity and foresight of Eng. Andrea Rossi and a team of researchers led by University of Bologna Prof. Sergio Focardi, a pioneer of studies on cold fusion in Italy. To me the signal that it was not a hoax but of something momentous, is assisting the gradual change of attitude of my friend: Party with the decidedly skeptical scientific objective duty to rebut the experimental results had been presented, after directly participated in the tests and subjected to all sorts of monitoring and verifying the data obtained, gradually recognized that the apparatus built by Focardi and Rossi produced energy (and so well!) right through the cold fusion that for many years Mainstream science has denied credit and verifiability. Since then various post I announced that would soon be given a public presentation of the functioning of the Ni-H Focardi and Rossi in question. The time has now arrived. The day after tomorrow will attend in person to the event to be held in Bologna, for the freedom of information guaranteed by bloggers on the net, along with journalists from two major daily newspapers and national news agency, a small and select audience of researchers and professors of the Department of Physics, University of Bologna. We invited all of a venticinquina. Of course many will bloom early in the network technical insights written by people competent to deal with the issue, much more than me that the engineering faculty 20 years ago, said only 8 tests before changing very field of study and work. So will document the event so popular deliberately, trying to imagine and speculate developments and repercussions of this fantastic discovery, on the economy and energy, environment, life of the rest of us. >From what I understand, the equipment is tested and refined successfully for some time (at least one industrial building would be heated by a fraction of the cost through years of cold fusion), and its engineering is almost complete, is ready for large scale production and to be used primarily in industry and then in civilian homes. Circulating at least a year "rumors" by which was also overseen by the DOE (Departamento of Energy) and the DOD (Department of Defense) U.S. and further proven to generate propulsion in one or more military vessels of the U.S. Navy. I will try to gather more information on these aspects. Hoping that the system for producing energy from cold fusion developed by Focardi and Rossi will not touch the fate of the telephone and that Meucci, like many inventions from 100% Italian, does not become the subject of business from other nations, that It is certain that mankind has everything to gain from a new source of energy low cost and low environmental impact. And who knows what our government does not understand - at last - that it makes more sense to build a myriad of new micro-reactor cold (and solar, wind, etc..) That few dangerous costosisissime, eco-compatible, "old" atomic power stations . Another question now imposes itself: how will the lobbies of oil and nuclear?
