🇺🇸 AMERICAN PHYSICS

PART 1

WITH THE NIGHT-VISION IMAGE INTENSIFIER PROJECT UNDER way at Fort Belvoir and the Project Horizon team
trying to swim upstream against the tide of civilian management of the U.S. space program, I turned my attention to the next of the Roswell crash fragments that looked especially intriguing: the charred semiconductor wafers that had broken off some larger device. I hadn’t made these my priorities at first, not knowing what they really were, until General Trudeau asked me to take a closer look.
“Talk to some of the rocket scientists down at Alamogordo about these things, Phil, “ he said. “I think they’ll know what we should do with them. “
I knew that in the days immediately following the crash, General Twining had met with the Alamogordo group of the Air Materiel Command and had described some of the debris to them. But I didn’t know how detailed his descriptions were or whether they even knew about the wafers we had in our file.
“I want to talk to some of the scientists up here, too, “ I said. “Especially, I want to see some of the engineers from the defense contractors. Maybe they can figure out what the engineering process is for these things. “
“Go over to Bell Labs, Phil, “ General Trudeau also suggested. “The transistor came out of their shop and these things look a lot like transistorized circuits.“
I’d heard that General Twining had worked very closely with both Bell Labs and Motorola on communications research during the war, afterwards at the Alamogordo test site for V2 missile launches, and after the Roswell crash. Whether he had brought them any material from the crash or showed them the tiny silicon chips was a matter of pure speculation. I only know that the entire field of circuit miniaturization took a giant leap in 1947 with the invention of the transistor and the first solid state components.

By the late 1950s,transistors had replaced the vacuum tube in radios and had turned the wall-sized wooden box of the 1940s into the portable plastic radio you could hear blaring away at the shore on a hot July Sunday. The electronics industry had taken a major technological jump in less than ten years, and I had to wonder privately whether any Roswell material had gotten out that I didn’t know about prior to my taking over Foreign Technology in 1961.

I didn’t realize it at first when I showed those silicon wafers to General Trudeau, but I was to become very quickly and intimately involved with the burgeoning computer industry and a very small, completely invisible, cog in an assembly line process that fifteen years later would result in the first microcomputer systems and the personal computer revolution.
Over the course of the years since I joined the army in 1942, my career took me through the stages of vacuum tube based devices, like our radios and radars in World War II, to component chassis.

These were large circuitry units that, if they went down, could be changed in sections, smaller sections, and finally to tiny transistors and transistorized electronic components. The first army computers I saw were room sized, clanking vacuum tube monsters that were always breaking down and, by today’s standards, took an eternity to calculate even the simplest of answers. They were simply oil filled data pots. But they amazed those of us who had never seen computers work before.

At Red Canyon and in Germany, the tracking and targeting radars we used were controlled by new transistorized chassis computers that were compact enough to fit onto a truck and travel with the battalion. So when I opened up my nut file and saw the charred matte gray quarter sized, cracker shaped silicon wafers with the gridlines etched onto them like tiny printed lines on the cover of a match book, I could make an educated guess about their function even though I’d never seen anything of the like before. I knew, however, that our rocket scientists and the university researchers who worked with the development laboratories at Bell, Motorola, and IBM would more than understand the primary function of these chips and figure out what we needed to do to make some of our own.

But first I called Professor Hermann Oberth for basic background on what, if any, development might have taken place after the Roswell crash. Dr. Oberth knew the Alamogordo scientists and probably received second hand the substance of the conversations General Twining had with his Alamogordo group in the hours after the retrieval of the vehicle. And if General Twining described some of the debris, did he describe these little silicon chips? And if he did, in those months when the ENIAC - the first working computer - was just cranking up at the Aberdeen Ordnance Testing Grounds in Maryland, what did the scientists make of those chips?
“They saw these at the Walker Field hangar, “ Dr. Oberth told me. “All of them at Alamogordo flew over to Roswell with General Twining to oversee the shipment to Wright Field. “

This brief and dark history of Silicon Valley is composed of excerpts from disclosures of a renown U.S official

The Day After Roswell is an American book about extraterrestrial spacecraft and the Roswell UFO incident. It was written by United States Army Colonel Philip J. Corso, with help from William J. Birnes, and was published as a tell-all memoir by Pocket Books in 1997, a year before Corso's death.

Interesting. You got me thinking, and I did some RESEARCH!! Which consisted mostly of YouTube videos and the Bob Lazar story came up. So this Lazar guy worked at Area 51 with Alien Spacecraft. The U.S has been reverse engineering these things for a while it seems. What's crazy about the Lazar story is that all his claims seem real at first, except they lack credible evidence. He did mention Unumpentium 115 which at the time had not been synthesized until 2003.

Corso Is saying that we reverse engineered the microchip aswell? And this Corso guy held some high ranking military duty? So that makes him reliable, right?

Breaking News in the Scientific Community.

http://www.space.com/29372-dwarf-pl...pots-video.html

"Dawn scientists can now conclude that the intense brightness of these spots is due to the reflection of sunlight by highly reflective material on the surface, possibly ice," Dawn principal investigator Christopher Russell of the University of California, Los Angeles, said in a statement.

The $466 million Dawn mission launched in September 2007. From July 2011 through September 2012, Dawn orbited the protoplanet Vesta, which, like Ceres, lies in the main asteroid belt, located between Mars and Jupiter.

Dawn arrived at the 590-mile-wide (950 km) Ceres on March 6, in the process becoming the first spacecraft ever to orbit a dwarf planet, as well as the first to circle two objects beyond the Earth-moon system.

The probe just departed its first science orbit at Ceres; on Saturday (May 9), Dawn fired up its ion engine and began spiraling down to its second science orbit, which will take the spacecraft within 2,700 miles (4,400 km) of Ceres' surface.

Dawn is expected to get there by June 6. (Ion engines are extremely efficient, but very low-thrust.) The probe will then begin a comprehensive mapping campaign that should reveal key insights about Ceres' geological history. That could include whether or not the dwarf planet is still geologically active, a possibility hinted at by a recent Hubble Space Telescope observation of apparent water-vapor plumes emanating from Ceres.

Dawn will eventually descend to two even closer-in orbits, studying Ceres from a distance of just 900 miles (1,450 km) and 230 miles (370 km) over the course of its time at the dwarf planet before wrapping up its mission in June 2016.

Shockley & Co were Pioneers of Early Integrated Circuitry. That is however, only a textual observation, like saying Shannon invented Cryptography. The implementation of a Technology is different than the Theoretical, but the book keeper gets the credit.

Because of Black Budgets, most technological advances are within the scope of most developed nations, but kept from public knowledge for national security purposes.

I am familiar with Lazar, but I have no opinion whether his claims are true or false. I'll just say that, we don't understand Gravity or Chromodynamics. You could write Field Theories all day, but you might never replicate, much less amplify a 'gravity wave' which has only been observed in supermassive extragalactic phenomena. So a lot of questions have been raised regarding the validity of his claims. Read Stanton Friedman's Lazar Skeptic Analysis. I think Friedman is brilliant, but an institutional puppet: he symbolizes the academic world -- close minded and narrow.

VATICAN AND LUCIFER

One of the stake holders in the MGIO is a group of European institutes who built an infrared camera and spectroscope, and named it "Lucifer". So what happened? First, somebody reported that an instrument called "Lucifer" was installed on Mt Graham. Then somebody remarked that Mt Graham also hosts the Vatican Advanced Technology Telescope, and that it is somewhat amusing that Mt Graham has both Vatican and Lucifer. Then the information somehow degraded and the slur was born: Vatican astronomers are supposedly friends with Lucifer...



The instrument is chilled to -213 Celsius, about -351 F, to allow for near-infrared observations. That wavelength is important for understanding star and planet formation, as well as observing very distant and very young galaxies. Lucifer has three interchangeable cameras for imaging and spectroscopy in different resolutions. It has a large field of view and high-res capabilities, which allow a wide range of observations.

And this:
http://www.amazon.com/Unconventiona...s/dp/1571740279

I myself have witnessed what seem to be 1) Plasmonic Orbifolds (Plasma Orbs)and Riemann Spheres 2) Sentient Rock-like Sediment with magma-like veins 3) Shapeshifting Triangles and Toroids.

They seem to be telepathic. On the other hand, they won't interact with the untrained. If you've experienced their presence you would know they seem to acknowledge and nod. Others have experienced abduction.

We are not alone folks.

Woah!

quote:
It's a cosmic mystery unfolding in agonizing slow motion. As NASA's Dawn spacecraft approaches Ceres, the largest object in the asteroid belt, a series of weird, reflective bright spots have started to shrink as they resolve into clearer focus, but they haven't become any less odd and inexplicable.

As Dawn descends toward its closest orbit around Ceres, it has been imaging the spots along the way, gradually giving us a less pixelated view of the large crater containing what now appear to be several bright spots reflecting the sun back at us. What once looked to be a large bright spot near the center of the dwarf planet soon split into two smaller, nearly adjacent spots upon closer inspection. In the latest view from Dawn, shot on May 16, those two large spots seem to be resolving into several smaller bright spots.


What could it be?

I didn't know if this thread belonged to either the SkyGaze Thread or the Awesome Science thread.

I think it delivers:

What's up with that?!

------------------49 Ceti (HIP 7345)------------------------------

49 Ceti is a white main-sequence star in the constellation Cetus. At 194 light years away, it shines at an apparent visual magnitude of 5.62. It is moving through the Galaxy at a speed of 28.6 km/s relative to the Sun. Its projected Galactic orbit carries it between 22,800 and 25,000 light years from the center of the Galaxy. 49 Ceti has no confirmed planets known to date (July 2013), but does have a circumstellar debris disk.

n many Science Fiction books and games, there are worlds or planet-like objects that are rings that orbit (or float around in space) (some examples being the Halo (from Halo) or the Ringworld (from the book called Ringworld by Larry Niven).

After reading through a lot of the Ringworld book, it got me wondering. What would the size of a ring have to be to orbit a black hole, staying structurally stable. The size of the black hole would be stable (not growing) and being the size of an intermediate-mass black hole.


What this means is that it doesn't matter if the object is a black hole or a regular star with the same mass - the gravity you feel from it at r away will be exactly the same. What makes black holes special is that their mass is compacted into an area small enough that there is a zone between the actual surface (assuming there is one) and the place where Fgrav is such that the escape velocity=c. (This is the space where light can't move fast enough to escape, which is why the hole is "black".) The edge is called the event horizon. Anything further away than that can (at least theoretically) escape, and behaves perfectly normally.

http://worldbuilding.stackexchange....it-a-black-hole



In a study, published in the Astrophysical Journal (arXiv.org version), the team proposes that the mysterious gas comes from a very massive disk-shaped region around 49 Cet that is similar to the Sun’s Kuiper Belt.

“We now believe that 49 Cet is 40 million years old, and the mystery is how in the world can there be this much gas around an otherwise ordinary star that is this old. This is the oldest star we know of with so much gas,” said Prof Benjamin Zuckerman of the University of California in Los Angeles.

The total mass of the various objects that make up the Kuiper Belt, including the dwarf planet Pluto, is about one-tenth the mass of the Earth. But back when the Earth was forming, the Kuiper Belt likely had a mass that was approximately 40 times larger than the Earth’s; most of that initial mass has been lost in the last 4.5 billion years. By contrast, the Kuiper Belt analogue that orbits around 49 Cet I now has a mass of about 400 Earth masses.
