Looks like one of the four horseman getting ready to ride.

Dudes!

No expensive street pharmaceuticals to get the imagination moving! Images in Fields of light and shadows and star dust hanging in space or rushing along the darkened lanes of star nurseries!

(Well...to be prosaic...not quite without expense. How much have we spent on NASA over the past 50 years?? But, some of that was my taxes...Back to earth!)

Imagine all the fields of energy/physics around you that the human eye can’t see.

You need to open your third eye.

We have invented machines to see what we cannot.

Third eye?? Some say that it is this!

Snip..."Now geophysicist Stuart Gilder, neuroscientist Christoph Schmitz (both at the Ludwig-Maximilians University of Munich), and their colleagues have carried out the first systematic mapping of magnetite nanoparticles in the human brain. At a magnetically shielded facility 80 km northeast of Munich, they used a superconducting magnetometer to measure the magnetic moments of hundreds of samples from seven dissected brains.

The chemical fixative used to store the brains is known to reduce the total iron concentration in tissue. Still, Gilder and company were able to measure any residual magnetization larger than 3.75 × 10−11 Am2. They found magnetite concentrated in the same places in all seven brains—primarily in the cerebellum and brain stem, as shown in the figure. A striking asymmetry also exists in the distribution of particles between the right and left hemispheres. The map establishes baseline data to which Gilder’s and other groups may compare later results as a function of variables such as age, gender, and neurological health. The map may also encourage studies of what function, if any, magnetite serves for humans. Magnetotactic bacteria, homing pigeons, and honeybees are among the organisms understood to sense magnetic field lines (see the article by Sönke Johnsen and Ken Lohmann in Physics Today, March 2008, page 29) with the same crystalline magnetite we humans have in our heads."

I’m going to have to meditate to the Schuman resonance with Tibetan chanting on this.

“I’m going to have to meditate to the Schuman resonance with Tibetan chanting on this.”

Humm...

Where is the switch in the Avionics suite to turn this on?
