How about that!

FYI, this article is also linked on the EnterpriseMission.com website.

Looks like a Townsend Brown type device. Nice to see something happening along these lines... Now, if it only turns out to be true...

ping!

Perhaps we will have the option of moving somewhere else...

p.s. Do you think I should ping anybody special about this?

Why can't they afford a decent camera?

bump for further scrutiny.

ping me next time, please, this is right up my alley!

Where can I find a concise explanation on how this works?

Second video looks as though there is transparent plastic film covering the top and there are holes in the table to blow upwards...kinda like air hockey.

not saying that's what I think it is, just that it's what it looks like

I'm going to go home and study on this thing, but my BS meter is definately twitching. I am quite familiar with corona discharges, and have more than a layman's understanding of electromagnetics and gravity. More on this after a sober objective review.

please add me to your ping-list after you've looked this over. I would be interested in hearing your thoughts, having studied space science and astrophysics, myself.

"why can't they afford a decent camera?"

Because they spent all their money on first-surface mirrors and a smoke generator? (just guessing) *hehehe*

"OK. it basically comes down to this : true anti-gravity (at least on a macroatomic scale) is an impossibility according to all the known laws of physics (If I'm wrong, please tell me, because I'd like to see those equations). However, many things can be made to appear as if they are antigravitic. For example, take the little-understood phenomenon of the Bifield-Brown effect, discovered by T. Townsend Brown. It basically states that a properly charged capacitor, when charged to a high enough voltage (at least 10 KV, often more) will thrust towards the positive side through some electrokinetic field effect unrelated to the ionic wind (I have tested this myself and it works). This is often called "electrogravity," but that is completely wrong. It is electorkinetic propulsion. The thust is the same up and down as it is side to side if you rotate the capacitor. It is completely unrelated to gravity. Another example it magnetic repulsion. Has all the "symptoms" of true antigravity, but it's not - it's just magnetism. In conclusion, antigravity-like effects can be produced in many ways, but true antigravity (without the assistance of a black hole or some similar device to warp the fabric of space itself) is an impossibility."

>Where can I find a concise explanation on how this works?

I wish I knew.

This is the first I've heard of it. I zapped it up here before I even examined all the web pages at the site.

For what it's worth, though, the place where I found this -- EnterpriseMission.com -- is put together by a couple of ex-NASA types. They have a lot of expertise availabe to them and they're not the kinds of people to flat out make stuff up, or to promote weirdos.

If this is related to the work of Townsend Brown (and that is just _my_ guess), then "fringe" books like "The Philadelphia Experiment" will be your best source of background info.

Physicist may check in with useful stuff. I imagine something like this will be easy to "debunk" if that's what's required. However, from glancing around the website at "Transdimensional Technology" they don't appear to be fly-by-night to me.

Time Will Tell! (I hope!)

rotflol!

Show me the money. If this is real, big names are lining up to buy the patents. Speaking of which, what are the patent application numbers?

Bump for later reading.

I would like to be pinged for articles of this type. I am skeptical, but hopeful that eventually, somehow, someone will stumble onto what it is we are looking for.

>If this is real, big names are lining up to buy the patents. Speaking of which, what are the patent application numbers?

Actually, I just got back from flipping through their website. They appear to be very upfront. All the workers have their resumes & credentials up online. All the corporate data appears to be current and up online. And they actually do provide the "contract numbers" for the work they apparently did in association with NASA...

I'm not saying I believe this stuff -- it all sounds just on the other side of fringe to be true -- but it sounds like they believe in what they're doing. And it _sounds_ like they've actually got a diversified product line. It may turn out to be a kind of pop science fiction story I suppose, but at least it's an interesting SF story.

In other words, it's linked to Richard Hoagland (or is that Hoaxland?) and his hyperdimensional fizzies.

Bump for later reading . And MarkWar if you have a ping list I'd like to be on it for these type articles.

They do inhabit the sharp edges of the current world paradigm however.
