UFO War: Chinese and US Navy off San Francisco


UFO War: Chinese and US Navy off San Francisco

You have GOT to read this article and make up your own mind about it.  Meanwhile, I'll be waiting on SHADO HQ and SkyDiver 1 to save the planet yet again from the invading UFO menace.

A recent article posted to the Discovery.com website tells of a recent shake up in the work being done to make faster-than-light travel possible in reality than stay in science fiction.

Click on the link below to go to the actual article. I will quote a few statements from that article below as well.

Quote:  "There is hope," Harold "Sonny" White of NASA's Johnson Space Center said Friday (Sept. 14) at the 100 Year Starship Symposium, a meeting to discuss the challenges of interstellar spaceflight.

Miguel Alcubierre proposed a football shape spacecraft with a flat ring of exotic matter that can create a space-time bubble aorund it.  And that bubble would contract space-time ahead of the ship and expand it behind the vessel causing it to travel faster-than-light without breaking the laws of physics to do so.  But the energy needed to create that space-time bubble was to great - until now.  Such FTL travel would give the vessel the "effective speed of about 10 times the speed of light.

But Harold White calculated that if the flat ring was instead more of a donut shape ring around said spacecraft, the energy requirements drop.  Plus, the intensity of the space warps could be oscillated over time - and that reduces the energy requirements even more.

Quote: "The findings I presented today change it from impractical to plausible and worth further investigation," White told SPACE.com. "The additional energy reduction realized by oscillating the bubble intensity is an interesting conjecture that we will enjoy looking at in the lab."

White and his team have begun experimenting with a mini version of their warp drive system theory.

Calling it the "White-Juday Warp Field Interferometer", the lab is located at the Johnson Space Center, Houston, Texas.

And the final quote from this article:  "We're trying to see if we can generate a very tiny instance of this in a tabletop experiment, to try to perturb space-time by one part in 10 million," White said.

The White-Juday Warp Field (henseforth referred to as WJWF) generator could be about the size of the old Voyager 1 space probe that was launched by NASA in 1977.

It Didn’t Really Happen… But?

Anyone who follows my blog will get the impression that I like the idea of airships (and they would be correct), and will support their re-introduction back into our commercial/military aviation arenas.
