Secrets of antigravity propulsion pdf Resolution 1 ANTIGRAVITY: FROM DREAM TO REALITY 1.1 - TRAVELING TO THE STARS Interstellar space travel has long captivated the imagination and longing of mankind. Indeed, we have penetrated space and gone over the moon, while breakthroughs in long-distance exploration, such as the Hubble Space Telescope, bring the farthest corners of space painfully close, reviving our desire to travel beyond our galaxy. On the same day we are bound by the disappointing limitations of conventional propulsion technology. Skeptics remind us that a spacecraft powered even by the most advanced chemical rockets will have to carry so much fuel that interstellar travel is out of the question. In addition, vehicles equipped with nuclear ionation engines will have a much longer range. However, the fuel needs will be such as to make the journey even a few light years completely impractical- basic physics tells us that the rocket spacecraft will need a fuel mass that will far exceed the mass of the vehicle itself. Is there a way to get rid of this fuel problem using completely different means of motion that don't require a large amount of mass to be pushed back for the ship to move forward? Imagine a spaceship that could change the gravitational field of the environment by artificially producing matter-attraction, gravity potential well, which was just behind the bow of the ship. The attractive force of the gravitational well will tow the ship forward just as if a very massive, planet-sized body was placed in front of it. The ship will begin to fall forward and thus will carry its self-gravity well along with it. Gravity will constantly draw the ship forward, while always staying ahead. Due to this carrot and whip effect, the ship can accelerate almost to the speed of light, and maybe even beyond, without a significant energy expenditure, except the one needed to create a gravitational well. Is such gravity control possible? Is it possible to build a spaceship with small enough engine power requirements for interstellar travel to be achieved? The answer is yes. Over the past few decades, high-end aerospace programs in the United States and several other countries have developed aircraft capable of challenging gravity. One form of this technology can loft a craft on substance-repelling energy rays. This exotic technology falls under a relatively obscure field of research known as electrogravitics. The origins of electrogravity can be traced back to the work of Nikola Tesla with high voltage shocks, and later, the relatively non-public discovery by T. Townsend Brown that electrostatic and gravitational fields were closely intertwined. Unfortunately, the electrogravity effect has for the most part ignored by mainstream scientists because the phenomenon is not expected to be either classical electrostatics or general relativity, effectively preventing it from teaching in university courses such as physics and electrical engineering. Rather, to uncover the secrets of electrogravitics, you need to delve into non-fiction articles, patents and relatively obscure technical reports that once held secret status. Perhaps the best place to start is to consider some of Brown's seminal work. 1.2 - ELECTROGRAVITIC American physicist and inventor Thomas Townsend Brown was born in 1905 in a family of zastnest in Seinsville, Ohio. At an early age, he showed great interest in space travel and dreamed that one day he himself went into space. His discovery of the electrogravitic phenomenon occurred during his school years, when his interest in space travel led him to a toy with a Coolidge tube - a high-voltage X-ray emitting vacuum tube similar to that found in modern dental X-ray machines. Brown had the understanding to mount the tube on a thin balance to investigate whether he could produce any traction. To his surprise, the tube moved every time it was turned on. By controlling X-rays as the cause of this mysterious force, he tracked the effect of the high voltage he applied to the tube plates. He concluded that the tube had moved because its gravitational field had somehow suffered from a high-voltage charge plate.1, 2, 3, ⁴ Figure 1.1. Thomas Townsend Brown at the age of fifty-three.

After further experiments, Brown eventually developed an electric capacitor device, which he called a gravitator (or, alternately, gravitor). These units were very heavy. One version consisted of a 2-foot- long wooden box and a 4-inch square that contained a series of massive, electrically conductive lead plates and separated electrically insulating sheets of glass that served as a dielectric capacitor environment (the dielectric is a substance that does not conduct electric current). Another version used a dielectric molded mixture of lead oxide and beeswax enclosed in Bakelit. The diagram in Figure 1.2, which is reproduced from Brown's 1928 patent, shows another version made with aluminum plates and paraffin. At a voltage of up to 150,000 volts of direct current (DC), Brown's gravitational gravity has developed thrust towards its positively charged end. One such gravitational, which weighed 10 kilograms, was observed to generate a maximum thrust of 0.1 kg (1 newton), a force equal to about 1 percent of the weight.⁵, ⁶ When oriented vertically on the scale and energized, he proceeded to gain or lose that amount of weight depending on how the polarity charge was applied. He became lighter when his The end collide and is heavier when its negative end collides up. Figure 1.2.A cellular gravitational sign is shown in perspective along with details of the end and lateral view of its plates. (Brown, 1928) Brown enrolled at the California Institute of Technology in 1922. He spent most of his first year trying to win over his professors and convince them of his abilities as a first-class lab technician. However, when he began to mention his ideas about electrogravity, no one listened. At the end of the year, his lab equipment was shipped from Ohio, installed it in his cabin, and sent invitations to several of his professors, including the famous Dr. Robert Millican, to witness the demonstration of the new force he discovered. No one came. A short time later, one of Brown's friends tested Millican, asking him if he knew anyone who had ever found a way to change or influence gravity. Millikan is said to have answered rudely, of course not; such a thing is impossible and out of the question. His feelings were deeply affected by the incident, Brown transferred to Kenyon College, in Gambier, Ohio, and the following year he transferred to Dennison University, in Granville, Ohio. One of his physics professors at Dennison, Dr. Paul A. Bifeld, was also interested in the movement of electric capacitors. Brown often talked to Bifeld and began to call the electrogravitic phenomenon the Bifeld-Brown effect, perhaps in relation to Bifeld's own interest in the subject. However, it is not clear that Bifeld actively cooperated with Brown in his research. For one of his experiments, Brown organized a pair of engravers, one at each end of the hand, which was hung from the lab ceiling with a long cord attached to the central arm support (Figure 1.3). When energized between 75,000 and 300,000 volts of DC, the connecting hand rotates as each engraver moved towards its positive pole. This force originated in the same way, even when the capacitor was immersed in the tank of oil, thus eliminating the possibility that the effect was produced by the wind of electric ions. Brown's gravity can produce this movement with a power input of just 1 watt. With each engraver generating 100 grams of thrust for a total thrust of 2 newtons, Brown's power-to-power ratio calculates up to 2,000 newtons per kilowatt. This is 130 times the thrust-to-power ratio of a jet engine, or 10,000 times greater than the power ratio of the space shuttle's main engine. Brown determined that the electrogravitic effect he observed depended on the amount of charge stored in his capacitors. As the application voltage increases and more charge is stored, the capacitors will with more electric gravity. What's more, because the intensity of the depending on the mass of the capacitor, he concluded that the induced motion should be due to the capacitor's ability to generate a localized gravitational field.

After he left Dennison, Brown conducted astrophysics research for four years, from 1926 to 1930, working in a private laboratory in his hometown of Seinsville, as well as at the Swazi Observatory in Ohio, where he was in contact with Dr. Bifeld. In a variation of his rotating gravitator experiment, Brown suspended one gravitational from his lab ceiling with two wires (Figure 1.4). The gravitational gas was hanging so that it remained submerged in an oil tank to reduce the production of ions. When energized, the pendulum will swing towards the positive gravitational pole. Brown described this electrogravity phenomenon as an impulse.⁷ he noted that it took less than five seconds for the pendulum to reach the maximum amplitude of his swing, but then, even when he maintained the high voltage potential, his pendulum would gradually return to its plumb position, taking 30 to 80 seconds to return. He also noted that on his return from maximum deviation, his pendulum would fluctuate at certain levels or steps, but repeated tests had shown that there were no consistent positions on those steps.
