The months and the years pass away and looking at the gray sky over our scientific community I can only repeat by heart the beautiful words of Pushkin: jfcHb KaxjJh^, Kaxaym rozwHy npHBbiK n aymoh npoBO)KaaTb, BHHurreHHa crafla CMepTb rpnaymy mok hhx cxapaHCb yra/iaxb. Meanwhile the experiments which I construct become more and more amazing and fantas- tical and the theory more simple and more elegant. In the last years I gave evidence not only on the invalidity of the principles of relativity and equivalence, but on the invalidity of the LAWS OF CONSERVATION which are the sacrosanct fundamentals of contemporary physics. — We stay on the threshold of a tremendous change in human life as energy can be produced from nothing. This is a DREAM, a FANCIFUL DREAM, but when I try to narrate it to my fellow-men, the result is the same as in GENESIS 37:5: Now Joseph had a dream and when he told it to his brothers, they only hated him more. Graz, 10 April 1988 Stefan MARINOV PREFACE TO THE SECOND EDITION In the second edition of TWT-III documents appeared after March 1988 have been in- cluded and some documents of the first edition have been cancelled. Four papers trea- ting space-time problems were transferred to the third edition of TWT-I and one paper treating energy violation problems was transferred from TWT-I to TWT-III. The corres- pondence for the years 1986 and 1987 which was published in the second edition of TWT-I is now presented in this edition of TWT-III. Four new papers are published in this edition of TWT-III of which two of other authors. Graz, 10 September 1988 Stefan MARINOV - 6 - Stefan Marinov with his brother Coliu (Sydney, February 1986) - 7 - FOR GLASNOST IN PHYSICS (scientific essay) The great ennemy of the truth is very often not the lie - deliberate, contrived and dishonest, but the myth - persistent, persuasive and unrealistic. J. F. Kennedy (1962) When even the Secretary General of the Soviet Communist Party has understood that the way of a society without GLASNOST is a way of stagnation and degradation, it seems that the Lords in science have still not realized that the lack of transperancy in the scientific research leads also inevitably to stagnation and degradation. Once when wondering who might be this "clever" institution which introduced the system of anonymous refereeing, my interlocutor exclaimed: "You do not know?! - The Spanish inquisition." At the first moment I was shocked but after a while I realized that my interlocutor might be right. Indeed, the inquisitors who had to survey the people, to investigate the different cases, to pronounce the verdicts were anonymous. Their names were known only to the General Inquisitor. The sentenced could hear only the verdicts but not the motivations. Very often the sentenced could hear even nothing, ttiQ' were simply executed. The anonymity serves to create the feelings of mysticism, authority and sacrosancti- ty. The best arm in the hands of mafiosi is the secrecy. No authoritarian or suppres- sive regime can survive without hierarchical structures where this one who stays on the top can have a free look down, but this one who stays at the bottom cannot have a free look up. It may seem strange that science, which is a field where the most lucid heads of the nations are gathered, preserves the attributes of the most reactionary and retrograde human institutions. A very clever physicist from Munich (who begged me to preserve his name in secrecy - see the fourth footnote on p. 4 of TWT-I) explained to me the reasons. There is no, he said, bigger authority than the authority of the scientists. One can in a single day change a political regime, hang the most powerful dictator with his head down or burn his mumified corpse. With the authorities in science one cannot do this. One needs centuries to turn the stream in the river of science. Those social and ethnic human groups who dominate and suppress other social and ethnic groups need cer- tain authority to justify their leading role. Only science can offer to them this authority as any other authority is not enough stable. On the other side, there is no other human activity which has bigger significance for the economical and ecological prosperity (better to say, survival) of mankind than science. A scientific discovery can change the whole life of a nation (or of the planet) - 8 - in few years. No other human activity has such deep social repercussions as science (remember the steam engine, the authomatic loom, the combustion engine, the electrifi- cation, the atomic power, the computers). Thus if science is so important for mankind, there must reign the largest glasnost. It is, however, exactly on the contrary. The ways in which the scientific discoveries come to light are very peculiar and in- terwoven. Sometimes an occasion brings a discovery to light much earlier than the "lo- gical evolution of science" could predict. But sometimes the most simple discovery re- mains again OCCASIONALLY hidden for many and many years and even for centuries, despite the logic 'probability expectations". And for these 'bccasion^' glasnosl^TJiay aprimary role. Here I shall consider the short histories of two discoveries, in which I have taken an active part, that lead first to a radical change in physical theory and thereupon to a radical change in planetary energetics. These discoveries could be done 100 years ago but they OCCASIONALLY remained unnoticed by mankind. Had mankind done these discoveries a century ago, our planet would look completely different from that what it is now. The first discovery is the establishment of the space-time absoluteness. As I wrote on p. 70 of TWT-II, in their historical 1887-paper, where Michelson and Morley presen- ted the account on their interferometric experiment, they gave also a proposal for an experiment on the measurement of first-order in v/c effects, where v is the absolute velocity of the laboratory and c the velocity of light. As Michelson and Morley noted, this experiment might be performed with the experimental technique of that time. How- ever neither Michelson nor some other researcher after him has tried to carry out such an experiment. The man who did it (without having read Michelson's suggestion) was I in 1973 (repeated in 1975 and 1984). My experimental reports show that at the end of the 19th century one was able to carry out this experiment. Had this experiment been done, physics had to go a completely different way, electromagnetism had to be built on another theoretical ground and the probability that an electromagnetic perpe- tuum mobile could be discovered also 100 years ago would be much higher. In my "coupled mirrors" experiment carried in 1973 and 1975/76 in Sofia and in my "coupled shutters" experiment in 1984 in Graz (as well as in 1979 in Brussels, where I could not achieve the necessary accuracy for registering the Earth's absolute velo- city) I used a rotating axle for realizing the so-called Newtonian time synchronization (i.e., for synchronizing two spacely remoted events in an absolute sense). My numerous experiments described in the books EPPUR SI MUOVE and CLASSICAL PHYSICS and my detailed theoretical analyses led me to the conclusion that if a Newtonian time synchronization should be not realized, then one is unable to measure optical effects due to the motion of the laboratory in absolute space. According to me, one can observe optical absolute effects without realizing a Newtonian time synchronization only in the quasi-Bradley - experiment (see my books). On the tiand, however, it is very easy to observe electromag netic absolute effects without realizing a Newtonian time synchronization. Such an ex- - 9 - periment is proposed on p. 150. Recently the student Robert Jan de Geus (Pesthuis laan 51, 1054 RH Amsterdam, Holland) wrote me that he has carried out this experiment with his "pocket money" with a definitely clear positive effect.

  • When Shall We Stop Discussing Relativity?
    WHEN SHALL WE STOP DISCUSSING RELATIVITY? A Comment on W. A. Scott Murray's Article Stefan Marinov Institute for Fundamental Physical Problems Morellenfeldgasse 16 A-8010 Graz, Austria Abstract The kinematic time dilation is an absolute effect and depends on the difference of the absolute velocities of the compared clocks. The gravitational time dilation is also an absolute effect and depends on the difference of the absolute gravitational potentials of the compared clocks. All “clock effects” observed up to now give a firm and unequivocal confirmation of these two absolute phenomena. The gravitational and electromagnetic phenomena depend not on the relative velocities of the bodies but on their absolute velocities. The quantities which determine the gravitational and electromagnetic phenomena are the potentials and not the intensities. The latter are derivatives of the potentials and contain less analytical information. It may seem strange and unbelievable, but the motional-transformer induction, which appears when a wire is at rest and a magnet moves (and which is not reciprocal to the motional induction which appears when a magnet is at rest and a wire moves), was recently discovered by me. This discovery led me shortly to the discovery of the perpetuum mobile, MAMIM COLIU. All aspects of space-time physics, which must be considered only from an absolute point of view, are analyzed in detail in my numerous papers, in my monograph1 and in my encyclopedic work.2 There, I showed that the rate of any clock (i.e., the duration of its period, for example, the time in which a light pulse in a “light clock” goes to a mirror and returns) depends on two factors: • on the absolute velocity of the clock • on the absolute gravitational potential of the clock.

  • Stefan Marinov's Magnetic Vortex Hyper-Ionization Device ( MAGVID )
    Page dedicated to the memory of Stefan Marinov and his Magnetic Vortex Hyper-Ionization Device ( MAGVID ) By Vencislav Bujic created on: 14 january 2002 last update: 16 june 2003 All the data and information on this web site is for free and may be used only for private and/or educational purposes, but not for commercial purposes and/or applications. This page is dedicated to the memory of Stefan Marinov and his device titled "Magnetic Vortex Hyper-Ionization Device". It was reported that Marinov was working on it, which means working with real device that he build, just one month before his sudden, unexpected dead. There is high chance that his dead has connection to the testing of this device, and that it was not 'suicide' as officially stated. Marinov was good Christian and nobody expected him to commit suicide. According to official news he presumably jumped off from the top of the four level outside emergency staircase of the Bibliotheque in Graz, Austria, but nobody actually saw him jumping off. He was still alive, not even bleeding, then ambulance and police arrived, and Marinov died on a way to hospital. The police never notified anybody, including his soon in Bulgaria. They sealed his apartment, not letting anybody inside, and also refused to release any letter found there, and refused giving any information. Stefan Marinov was born in Bulgaria, then when he got a passport, he moved to Washington. Secret agencies and their 'elite' bosses, who control sources of energy, and are confusing people, the same that prevented Tesla and many others from giving to all the people source of free energy, didn't let Marinov alone when he went back to Europe, this time to Italy and Austria.

  • The Strange Death of Stefan Marinov
    The Strange Death of Stefan Marinov Albert Einstein, Free Energy and The Strange Deaths of Morris K. Jessup and Stefan Marinov by Laura Knight-Jadczyk Extracted from Adventures With Cassiopaea, Copyright 2001 I want to talk about death here. Sure, I know, nobody wants to talk about death. But I have in mind some very interesting deaths that ought to be talked about for a lot of reasons. 1 / 99 The Strange Death of Stefan Marinov The first death I want to talk about is the "apparent suicide" of Morris K. Jessup. The problem with Morris Jessup's suicide is that it was too obvious. He was found in his station wagon in a Dade County Park, Florida, on the evening of April 29, 1959. A hose had been attached to the exhaust pipe of the station wagon and looped into the closed interior. The whole set-up had been accomplished during daylight hours, in a public park. Ever since, researchers have said that Jessup's death was the price he paid for getting too close to the truth. You see, Jessup's death is SO apparent a suicide, that everyone just KNEW that it was NOT a suicide. And, of course, as a consequence, an entire mythos was born about something called the Philadelphi a Experiment having to do with Time Travel. 2 / 99 The Strange Death of Stefan Marinov There has always been an element of "high strangeness" to the "UFO mystery" that has been the subject of endless debates among researchers. Anyone who has seriously begun to delve into such matters, or who has experienced certain manifestations, is aware of the weird guys who dress in black, big-foot type critters, strange, hooded figures, poltergeist type events, and crazy electronic glitches in telephones, televisions and radios.

    Answers Research Journal 2 (2009): 1–9. www.answersingenesis.org/arj/v2/intolerance-modern-cosmology.pdf A Brief History of Intolerance in Modern Cosmology Jerry Bergman, Northwest State College, 22-600 State Rt 34, Archbold, OH 43502 Abstract A review of some recent well-documented cases of intolerance in the cosmology field illustrates a common problem in science. Many relate to the Big Bang theory, such as the case of Geoffrey and Margaret Burbidge and Halton Arp. None of the accounts involved Intelligent Design advocates or creationists. This selection removes this compounding factor from the evaluation, but the cases have direct relevance to both Intelligent Design and creationism because both groups face the same resistance. It was concluded that it is critical for science to advance that, new ideas must be evaluated on the evidence and not because they challenge established science. This problem has persisted during the entire history of science, the most well known example being Galileo. Keywords: Cosmology, Astronomy, The Big Bang theory, The origin of the universe, The history of science, Intolerance in science, Modern astronomers. Introduction 1991; Williams and Hartnett 2005). As Burbidge The beliefs that humans have entertained about claims, although the universe for most of history are radically different Big Bang cosmology is probably as widely believed from the views held by most scientists today (Wynn as has been any theory of the universe in the history and Wiggins 1997).

Konstantinov, Department of Physical Electronics, Russian State Pedagogical University, St.Petersburg, RSC”Energy”, Russia Abstract : The article presents an unconventional look at the physics of extracting the latent energy of the galactic and intergalactic quantum environment. Active influence on the system from the outside occurs when the dominant processes in the system are irreversible. The validity of this assertion is confirmed in the microcosm and in the macrocosm, and even in the cosmology of the universe. The article deals with the physical principles of the microwave Roger Shawyer’s engine EmDrive, Baurov's engine and Leonov's anti- gravity quantum engine, the Andrea Rossi’s reactor E-cat, the Paul Bauman’s generator “Testatik machine M/L Converter”, Leo Sapogin’s New Source of Energy, G.Shipov's torsion transmitting, the Nicola Tesla's Systems to wirelessly transmit Energy. Explain the principle of operation of these devices from the point of view of modern quantum-relativistic theory, based on the model of the physical vacuum, it is not possible. The laws of conservation of energy and momentum for these devices are only valid in the case of recognition of the existence of the quantum environment with positive density (dark matter), which the participates in all interactions in nature.
