It was during my first visit to the historic Montauk Lighthouse that I noticed the huge radar dish which immediately identifies the base. I must have been about eight years old and remember asking my parents about the monstrous structure. My father said it was part of a system to detect incoming enemy aircraft or missiles. As a retired Air Force Officer, he would know about that. However, Im certain that he had no idea what future (or past) events would give that base such a…
The Moon: One Small Step For Man – One Giant Bill For America
Should America be thinking about getting back to the moon by 2013? With Iraq, Afghanistan, Katrina and Rita pulling at every dime in our coffers, is going to the moon just another loony idea?
The Invisible Ether and Michelson Morley
Modern scientists adopted the ancient concept of the ether to explain the fundamental nature of the universe. Einstein allegedly dethroned the ether concept with his space time continuum. In spite of this, we might have to revisit the ether concept.
“WE DON’T know what we are talking about” – Nobel Laureate David Gross
Science has reached an enormous impasse. From biology to physics, astronomy to genetics, the scientific community is reaching the limits of understanding which often presage a complete rethinking of long-accepted theories. So characteristic of this new apex of modern arrogance is the inability to comprehend the obvious in physics: That we don’t know what we are talking about.
Big Bang Booming – Back To The Future
Theoretical cosmologists spend much of their time perfecting what is now known as the ‘Big Bang’ theory. This concept originates from ideas percolating in the minds of scientists, theologians and astronomers down through the ages. However, much of what they consider as proof for the ‘Big Bang’ is dependent upon uncontrolled experimentation that is molded to meet their expectations.
Then God said, “Let there be light,” and there was light. This ancient description of the cr…
E=mc2 is Wrong – Einstein’s Special Relativity Fundamentally Flawed
In 1905, Albert Einstein published ‘On the Electrodynamics of Moving Bodies’ now known as Special Relativity; this theory revolutionized geometry, math, physics, science and the classical perspective of the universe as understood since Newton’s time. However, were there intrinsic errors in this theory?
Galactic Mystery – Matter – On the Dark Side
Scientific inquiry can be described as a sequence of observations leading to a hypothesis which must be tested by experimentation. The results either validate or invalidate the hypothesis which was under test. Unfortunately, the interpretation of the data sometimes does not elucidate some new truth but rather eclipses our thoughts into a new era of ignorance.
Historical Advances in Producing Electricity From the Sun
When politicians start talking about renewable energy, you know we have problems. Solar energy is a significant renewable energy and here is an overview of how the technology has developed.
The Sales Solution: E=mc²
Visualize yourself as successful, become your own Einstein, a brilliant visionary who had a tough sales job.
