Hi! This is my first posting. I know this may sound a little weird but every once and a while while reading a electronics magazine I run across an ad for plans for an anti-gravity device. I was wondering if anyone has every got a hold of these plans and built one. Any comments? -Erik

Anti-gravity technology has existed for quite some time, and if your EE professor hasn't yet described it to you in Circuits 101, complain to the dean NOW so that he can correct this oversight. As a service to the net, I'm selling my anti-gravity field generator. And I don't mean some two-bit electromagnetic levitator -- I mean the Real Thing. Here's the schematic: ______\/ / \ /\ Anti-Grav Field Antenna / ) Flux ----- ) Capacitor --> ----- ) <-- Magnetic Monopole Inductor / \ /____(T)____\ <-- Tachyon detector 100% Bug-free \ / Totally Secure \ / + Computer Controller \__ ------ ---> |__| --- <-- Cold-Fusion battery \ / \_/ Figure 1 -- Antigravity Field Generator (arranged in balanced "Brooklyn Bridge" configuration) By carefully adjusting the Flux Capacitor and Magnetic Monopole Inductor until the Tachyon Detector is nulled, you can generate an anti-gravity field which will levitate you, as well as effectively jam nearby Police radar. (I'm not sure which bands it jams -- follow-up to rec.autos and rec.ham-radio to get the complete answer.) Call me at 1-800-QUIK-CKT for ordering information and more complete specifications.

Or perhaps, I should be more specific, and refer to them as gravity-opposing devices, since they operate counter to, say, Earth's gravitational field. You'll also not that gravity has nothing to do with it, but they're not going to mention that in the ads. A few examples of such devices: airplanes, helicopters, air-hocky-boards and pucks, etc. Clever (and not-quite-honest) advertising can describe these things as opposing gravity. That's what I suspect these people are up to. ___Samuel___ _________I_claim_and_accept_sole_responsibility_for_the_above._SjG.____________ <goldstein@aerospace.aero.org> | "In the space between our houses/ some bones trimethylxanthine - it gets | have been discovered/ yet our possession you through the day... | lurches on/ as if we had recovered..."

RE: Antigravity stuff. :) I believe I've come across two such items (hey, what can I say, I sent away for that material when I was a kid :). The first item I've seen is merely a hovercraft. The second item was a great deal more interesting, but completely theoretical (and likely impossible). It was based on centrifugal force and required that the spinning object by harnessed when it spun AWAY from the pull of gravity. I think they tried to base it on the gyroscope principle. Anyway, by harnessing the force of the object when it opposed gravity, you were able to generate "anti-gravity". It was a while ago, so I don't remember if they explained how to do this (you mech techs know that it don't work :) but they continued and theorized that if electrons could be harnessed in this way, you'd have a perfect anti-gravity generator. (You would...except that you can't harness the centrifugal force of something spinning at the speed of light :) Charles_K_Hughes@cup.portal.com

(You would...except that you can't harness the centrifugal >force of something spinning at the speed of light :) Wouldn't make any difference, because the entire concept is flawed in the first place. There's no such thing as "centrifugal force"; what normally goes by that name is really just inertia. You feel "centrifugal force" when whirling a mass on a line around simply because you have to accelerate the mass *inward* to get it to follow a circular course - by itself, the mass at all times "wants" to keep moving in a direction tangential to the circle. The distinction is usually only for the pedantic, until we start talking about such things as "harnessing the centrifugal force." Bob Myers KC0EW HP Graphics Tech.

Your in luck! I sent in for one of those and my responce is much more
interesting. (Hehehe I was just TOO curious!) It tells you how to CHANGE THE
GRAVITATIONAL CONSTANT! It basically talks about the Bienfield-Brown Effect.
Wich is an experement where they changed the rate of a ceramic pendulum by
putting an electrode above and below it, while passing a a 50Kvolt current
between them. (Neato!) This supposably was cause by the Current changing the
gravitaional constand.
After it gives you all this info, it tells you how to make a craft that
uses this "Anti-Gravity", called the "NIPD II" It basically is two electrodes
that you run 50K volts through and supposably rises. It also admits that the
craft will lift off the ground do to IONIC wind, but that in a vacume, ANTI
