Click & Clack Look at the Future of Cars – 02 July 2009

http://www.hulu.com/watch/63742/nova-car-of-the-future?c=News-and-Information - Car of the Future

Cellulosic fermentation, hydrogen, Iceland, better engines, better materials, better designs, historic patterns;
The Car Guys of Public Radio join teams with Nova to make the future of cars fun and easy to understand.

Watching Nova when you want to, one reason Hulu.com rocks.
Time to put easy chairs in front of our computers? or time to buy a new one and throw out your TV?
Two questions asked about your near future for the price of 53:22.

Freedom is a state of mind

i cannot give you your freedom
and i cannot take it away
but i will blog all night
for your right to freely express

there are times when they come in the night,
and they come in the day with unimaginable weaponry
and they massacre, and the unimaginative, and the trusting, and the compassionate
and sometimes just everyone,
are just gone

while we may, let’s make hey!
connectedness, community, and wisdom
are ever more accessible

for the picoradio linked sensorchip parallel computing networks
smart dust (and these links are ancient)
of the very near future will know all and see all
and we had better be ready to share it

so live in the light, live in the open
share a solidarity of community
or be first on the cattle cars when
some botnets evolve sentience
and the one in charge buys all the corps

and fires us all

only love and hope can prevent us from being
supeceded by our own machinations

offering instead, to humanize machination
to embody it in wisdom
to bring it back to the whole technologia
by sharing decisions enough that they are
decided by those who care, and are most affected
the real stakeholders all need a say,
and to decide we all need all the info

either way privacy will die
the built environment will become programable
all our best technologia will be grown
and the bug on the windowsill will have eyes
that see the world from all three angles
narrator, subject, object
someone will soon know the world inside out
i feel strongly that one should be ALLOFUS!
otherwise surely not wise

together we can form Gea a much higher mind

we come together in spaces like this more easily
and with more frequency
while most of the peoples’ content and bandwidth
is filled with the drival of peoples’ lives
that is the goal, the objective is for all to have a soap box
all to have a voice, and all to have a choice

and no little puny subterfuge like Dieboldly voting machines
and a few badley stolen, suposedly public, elections,
will ever really change that

when the people realize the chips are down and it’s time to play our cards
and how rare and beautiful us beingness on Earth is
but mostly people never do anything about a problem
untill they can really see it coming, and where the solution is going

this is why we must more fully share the truths of our consensus reality

how do i not love us all?

Reflected Gravitational Waves

By this point, i’m still feeling like i got the purple pill,
and every time i eat it the same thing happens;
except that i’ve been reading a lot of sci-fi lately,
and now i’m living in one of the stories.

most notably The trigger by Arthur C. Clarke and Michael P. Kube-McDowell
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Trigger
which i highly recommend

Sub space travel is a hypothetical ramification, of this new paragdigm
but propellant free “graviti-motive” force has already been applied and measured.

So, there it was, in my inbox, with my daily slashdot.com story teaser list.
This article simply cited another article,
If superconducting sheets reflected gravitational waves…
…wouldn’t our most sensitive experiments have spotted this by now? Maybe they have
http://www.technologyreview.com/blog/arxiv/23198/

“”In the couple of weeks since he introduced the idea that superconducting sheets can
reflect gravity waves, Raymond Chiao from the University of California, Merced,
has been busy with a couple of buddies working out how big this effect is… Chiao and co.
ask how big the effect of a gravitational wave on a thin superconducting sheet is compared
to the effect on an ordinary conducting sheet.
The answer? 42 orders of magnitude bigger.”"…

“One experiment springs to mind that might be capable of seeing this effect.
Gravity Probe B is a space-based experiment designed to spot the geodetic effect
and frame dragging, two tiny forces predicted by general relativity.

The experiment consists of four perfectly round spheres, each about the the size of a baseball,
that spin rapidly and so behave like gyroscopes.
Each sphere has a thin superconducting coating which allows its spin and any changes to it
to be measured precisely. ”

and an experiment called Gravity Probe B
http://einstein.stanford.edu/content/final_report/GPB_Final_NASA_Report-020509-web.pdf
“The data analysis leading up to this important result proved more subtle than expected.
‘Patch-effect’1 anomalies on the gyro rotor and housing have complicated the gyro behavior
in two ways, a changing polhode path affecting the determination of the gyro scale factor,
and two larger than expected Newtonian torques. Put simply, while mechanically both rotor
and housing are exceedingly spherical, electrically they are not. Steadily advancing progress,
reported to NASA directly and via successive meetings of the NASA appointed GP-B Science
Advisory Committee (SAC) chaired by Professor Clifford Will, has brought a rather complete
understanding of these effects. A turning point came in August 2008 with the incorporation
of an elegant approach for computing the detailed history of the remarkable “roll-polhode
resonance” torques discovered a year earlier by J. Kolodziejczak of NASA MSFC. The result,
reported here, was a large reduction in previously unexplained discrepancies
between the four gyroscopes.”


Of course, the slashdot article is where all the comments are.
Some of these softened me up with positing antigrav fields, and reversing measuring effects
in interesting ways, and some humor surrounding all that.

So, i read these,
and opened all the links cited in the stories and the discussion,
SOP for me.

mostly it was about the number 42, at first,
i expected no more than jokes about my favorite book,
Hitchikers Guide to the Galaxy,
but this one comment put me on to some interesting sources,
that put me on to some more interesting sources.

For a short while while i was reading this one Wikipedia page,
it all seemed such a well designed but simple planted prank
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heim_Quantum_Theory

It all sounded so fairy tales super normed out;
too typic. Too much a based in fact but derived from fiction feel about it.

“Predictions claimed to have been derived from first principles
that are experimentally testable are:

* Predictions of the masses of neutrinos
* Predictions of new particles
* Predictions of excited states of existing particles
* Predictions for the conversion of photons into the so-called “gravito-photons”
resulting in a measurable force.

Heim predicted in the 1980s that neutrinos would have nonzero mass.”

Yea, but i predicted it in the 70′s, big deal
(i always had a theoretical rejection on mass less neutrinos, no math involved).

Then i read a New Scientist article
(http://www.newscientist.com/article/mg18925331.200-take-a-leap-into-hyperspace.html?page=3),
cover story from 5 Jan., 2006 (http://www.newscientist.com/issue/2533):

“Dröscher is hazy about the details, but he suggests that a spacecraft fitted
with a coil and ring could be propelled into a multidimensional hyperspace.
Here the constants of nature could be different, and even the speed of light could be
several times faster than we experience.
If this happens, it would be possible to reach Mars in less than 3 hours
and a star 11 light years away in only 80 days, Dröscher and Häuser say.”

!! and a page from the EU Space Agency !!:
(http://www.esa.int/SPECIALS/GSP/SEM0L6OVGJE_0.html 23 March 2006),
and a whole lot of previously completely disconnected info began to fit together
in ways that i would not have guessed.

The proverbial platinum hammer to the head. It was very good.

“Their experiment involves a ring of superconducting material
rotating up to 6,500 times a minute. …

It demonstrates that a superconductive gyroscope is capable of generating a powerful
gravitomagnetic field, and is therefore the gravitational counterpart of
the magnetic coil.”

Today’s biggest news, from where i sit, seems to be over two years old,
and i suspect that the general idea may have been around for some time.

Whether recent experiments have actually caught several research teams
by complete surprise, or they are just confirming and legitimizing the knowledge gained
nefariously at “Area 51″ over the years, we have an experimental data set
almost requiring a coherent theory of hyper drive and/or anti-gravity propulsion.

Over the last decade or more there have been a lot of anomalous effects recorded
regarding the precise measurement of gravity and mass.
Often lately this has been explained by a “missing” dark matter and/or dark energy.

The fact is there have been some better theories lying around for a very long time,
positing that the strength of gravity falls off at a different rate outside
a certain distance, and/or positing an anti-gravity repulsive field of some sort
or another.

There have almost always been proofs of Einstienian mass and gravity ramifications
that seemed to be off the mark in little ways that defied explanation.

These are the basis, to a large part, for the tradition of excluding
“facility induced effects”.

With the still broadcasting pioneer and viking space probes getting so far away,
and the sensitivity of our gravity wave detectors increasing,
we are finding some big questions unanswered lately in physics.

The ESA report (http://www.esa.int/SPECIALS/GSP/SEM0L6OVGJE_0.html),
makes it quite clear that we have stumbled on a good chunk of what underlies
the answers to many of these questions.
The negation of gravity is highly implicated in these results,
if they are to become replicated without further elucidation of another effect.
According to theories based on those of Heim, such is the result of another force
in addition to, and similar too, gravity,
these are claimed to explained by Hiem’s theories.

So, this reading brought me into contact with Heim’s theories
for what i think is the first time.
Apparently the theory seems pretty shaky to the pros,
but is supposedly still the only one to explain the masses of particles
in any meaningful way.

This is actually where it gets hardest for me to believe right now,
as the Wikipedia page (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heim_Quantum_Theory),
is currently stamped with “The neutrality of this article is disputed.”,
since Dec 2007.
It seems it should have been resolved by now.

In any case there is plenty more to go on than WIKIpedia, Heim, or his theory,
in the ESA article alone:

“This experiment is the gravitational analogue of Faraday’s electromagnetic induction
experiment in 1831.

It demonstrates that a superconductive gyroscope is capable of generating a powerful
gravitomagnetic field, and is therefore the gravitational counterpart of
the magnetic coil.
Depending on further confirmation, this effect could form the basis for
a new technological domain, which would have numerous applications in space
and other high-tech sectors” says ESA study manager Clovis de Matos.
Although just 100 millionths of the acceleration due to the Earth’s gravitational
field, the measured field is a surprising one hundred million trillion times larger
than Einstein’s General Relativity predicts. Initially, the researchers were reluctant
to believe their own results.”…

“We ran more than 250 experiments, improved the facility over 3 years
and discussed the validity of the results for 8 months before making this announcement.
Now we are confident about the measurement,” says Tajmar, who performed the experiments
and hopes that other physicists will conduct their own versions of the experiment
in order to verify the findings and rule out a facility induced effect.”…

“If confirmed, this would be a major breakthrough,” says Tajmar,
“it opens up a new means of investigating general relativity and it consequences
in the quantum world.”
(http://www.esa.int/SPECIALS/GSP/SEM0L6OVGJE_0.html)

We have engines just like the ones i’ve heard the more credible Area 51 insider reports describe??

uh huh

Keep your eye peeled one whats going on with “Frame Dragging Signals” in real research labs.
Here’s one that looks to explore and confirm the parameters of the effect itself:

http://arxiv.org/abs/0707.3806

Search for Frame-Dragging-Like Signals Close to Spinning Superconductors
Authors: M. Tajmar, F. Plesescu, B. Seifert, R. Schnitzer, I. Vasiljevich
(Submitted on 25 Jul 2007 (v1), last revised 22 Apr 2008 (this version, v9)):
“High-resolution accelerometer and laser gyroscope measurements were performed
in the vicinity of spinning rings at cryogenic temperatures.
After passing a critical temperature, which does not coincide with the material’s
superconducting temperature, the angular acceleration and angular velocity applied
to the rotating ring could be seen on the sensors although they are mechanically
de-coupled. A parity violation was observed for the laser gyroscope measurements
such that the effect was greatly pronounced in the clockwise-direction only.
The experiments seem to compare well with recent independent tests obtained by the
Canterbury Ring Laser Group and the Gravity-Probe B satellite.
All systematic effects analyzed so far are at least 3 orders of magnitude below
the observed phenomenon. The available experimental data indicates that the fields
scale similar to classical frame-dragging fields.
A number of theories that predicted large frame-dragging fields around spinning
superconductors can be ruled out by up to 4 orders of magnitude.”

Damn they move fast nowadays.

Here’s just one of many many examples of what i feel has been the elephant in the room,
which apparently has been replaced with the potential for some real answers to the question:

HERE’S THE REAL DOPE:

“In summary, the present situation is characterized by the fact that a large number
of experiments were performed over a period of more than four years,
employing very different measurement techniques, but showing highly similar,
but totally unexpected results.
Measurement techniques in all experiments are clearly state of the art,
in particular for the GP-B experiment and the latest experiments by Tajmar et al.16 p .
Hence, the conclusion is that substantial experimental evidence for the existence
of gravity-like field is available.
It remains to be seen, whether in the case of the Gp-B experiment the misalignment
of the orientation of the gyro axes and the change in the gyro rotation frequencies
can be convincingly explained by classical physics.
According to EHT, the misalignment of the orientation of the gyro axes has be
attributed to a gravitomagnetic field, and the change in the gyro rotation frequencies
needs to be traced back to a gravity-like field.
If this were true, a rather solid experimental basis of three highly different
experiments seeing the same novel physical phenomenon would exist.
This would serve as a comprehensive experimental data set against which theoretical
concepts have to be compared.
In this regard the GP-B experiment might deliver highly interesting novel
physical results.
The current theoretical findings from EHT and their comparisons to experimental
results are encouraging, though lots of open questions remain.

For the sake of clarity, the current situation (June 2008) is rephrased as follows.
There is experimental data from three completely unrelated sources, employing
completely different measuring techniques that have seen physical effects that
are approximately 18-20 orders of magnitude larger than predicted by GR.
In all experiments a phase transition occurred at low temperatures
(not necessarily at TC, the critical temperature for superconducting, but possibly
two-electron interaction took place?).
GR cannot be used to explain these phenomena, even if the full nonlinear Einstein
field equations were used, which should make no difference.
The Lageos and GP-B experiments have clearly
demonstrated that the inertial frame-dragging effect, even from celestial bodies,
is extremely small and within GR.
These facts provide evidence for novel physics

in the form of additional fundamental forces.

How to proceed? It seems that there is sufficient reliable experimental data to
start a comprehensive theoretical and experimental
research program in gravity-like fields.
There exists a physical model that can partly reproduce experimental facts,
and also provide guidelines for an experiment generating a gravity-like field
acting along the axis of rotation, while the ring or disk is rotating at constant
speed. If such an experiment were successful, the goal of gravity-controlled
technology (energy generation) or propulsion without propellant would be much closer.
Naturally, a propellantless propulsion system would be far superior to any existing
propulsion technology, while its technology might be substantially simpler than
present technology of linear momentum conservation employed in chemical,
fission or fusion rockets.

Moreover, gravity-like fields most likely would lead to novel technologies
in the general field of transportation, and thus should be of major interest
to the public and, in particular, to industry.

There is, of course, despite the rather solid experimental basis,
insufficient knowledge at present whether these gravity-like fields are
technically feasible and how they scale.
The next step should therefore be to conduct a comprehensive and detailed study
for determining the technical details of how to realize the proposed experiment
for a vertical gravity-like field and to clarify the theoretical background.
At the same time current experiments should be further refined and re-evaluated.

Needless to say, control of gravity would lead to completely new technologies,
comparable to the advent of electricity and magnetism in the 19 th century.”

Note, the effect is doesil, as in the choice of clockwise betrays a great deal of prophetic
ability of the ancestors, or the odds of a binary choice, but yet again the Allness
reveals she has a right hand bias.

Turns out 2008 does mirror 1908, talk about some critical years,
they almost give the year the Emperor burned the Chinese fleet (boooooring)
a run for it’s money, after all, it was the year they drove Islam out of Spain (1492).

This is not even the only new hint of a new type of motor,
but this is sooo much more 2009,
just as much a surprise out of no where,
and means of a similar type effect, in a way.

Been meaning to post these for weeks:

You have to check out
these magnetically driven thin liquid film motors in these movies:

“Here’s an interesting effect discovered by a group of Iranian physicists at Sharif University of Technology in Tehran, Iran (it’s not often we hear from these guys).

They placed a thin film of water in a square cell and applied two perpendicular electric fields. One was an external electric field. For the other, they used two copper electrodes to generate a voltage across the cell like an electrolysing cell (although no chemical reaction took place).

So they had a pair of electric fields at right angles acting on this thin film.

The unexpected result is that the film of water begins to rotate. The team has a number of movies of the effect on its website. They call it a liquid film motor and it’s a quite extraordinary effect. At one point they divide their cell into nine smaller ones and the liquid in each cell rotates in exactly the same way.”

 

in this one it is easier to see how this could pump fluids around a bio sensor chip:
