Case for Antigravity
(Partly Conspiracy)

Found a good "Anti-Gravity" link? Let Us Know!

United States gravity control propulsion research (1955 - 1974) American interest in "gravity control propulsion research" intensified during the early 1950s. Literature from that period used the terms anti-gravity, anti-gravitation, baricentric, counterbary, electrogravitics, G-projects, gravitics, gravity control, and gravity propulsion. Their publicized goals were to develop and discover technologies and theories for the manipulation of gravity or gravity-like fields for propulsion. Although general relativity theory appeared to prohibit anti-gravity propulsion, several programs were funded to develop it through gravitation research from 1955 to 1974. The names of many contributors to general relativity and those of the golden age of general relativity have appeared among documents about the institutions that had served as the theoretical research components of those programs. The existence and 1950s emergence of the gravity control propulsion research had not been a subject of controversy for aerospace writers, critics, and conspiracy theory advocates. But its rationale, effectiveness, and longevity have been the objects of contested views...

Dr. Boyko V. Ivanov is a mainstream theoretical physicist who has published several papers in the Journal of Mathematical Physics, Classical and Quantum Gravity, Physics Letters A, Physical Review B, and Physical Review D. During the years 2004 and 2005, he established a formal derivation of the electrogravitic Biefeld-Brown Effect from general relativity theory. The three papers, preprints, that present his proof have been too controversial for publication in the mainstream journals. They should be noted when one takes into consideration his credentials and published works. The following are their links in chronological order:

Strong gravitational force induced by static electromagnetic fields [pdf] by Boyko V. Ivanov:  Institute for Nuclear Research and Nuclear Energy, Tzarigradsko Shausse 72, Sofia 1784, Bulgaria - It is argued that static electric or magnetic fields induce Weyl-Majumdar-Papapetrou solutions for the metric of spacetime. Their gravitational acceleration includes a term many orders of magnitude stronger than usual perturbative terms. It gives rise to a number of effects, which can be detected experimentally. Four electrostatic and four magnetostatic examples of physical set-ups with simple symmetries are proposed. The different ways in which mass sources enter and complicate the pure electromagnetic picture are described.

On the gravitational field induced by static electromagnetic sources [pdf] by Boyko V. Ivanov

Weyl electrovacuum solutions and gauge invariance [pdf] by Boyko V. Ivanov:  Institute for Nuclear Research and Nuclear Energy, Tzarigradsko Shausse 72, Sofia 1784, Bulgaria - It is argued that in Weyl electrovacuum solutions the linear term in the metric cannot be eliminated just on grounds of gauge invariance. Its importance is stressed.

Explanation of dynamical Biefeld-Brown Effect from the standpoint of ZPF field [pdf] by Takaaki Musha - The research group of the HONDA R&D Institute observed the weigh reduction at the experiment by applying an alternate electric field to the capacitor. This phenomenon, which can be called as “dynamical Biefeld-Brown effect”, can not be explained within the framework of the conventional physics. From the standpoint of the ZPF field, the author tries to explain this phenomenon by interactions between the zero-point field of the quantum vacuum and the high potential electric field.

Gravity Control and Antigravity As a history of antigravity, this page is a work in progress. Antigravity, or gravity control, is the hypothetical effect of reducing or canceling a gravitational field.

Bill B's Weird Science Page: Antigravity Mainstream scientists regard Electrogravity research with distaste, class it as a disreputable field of study, and group it with research into UFOs, bigfoot, unexplained phenomena, etc. So-called "Antigravity" is the target of skeptical debunkers, and any physicists who venture into the subject put their reputation and career at risk. Einstein's General Relativity implies that hobbyist devices cannot produce strong gravity effects; that no strong links can exist between gravity (spacetime distortions) and electromagnetism (photon exchange). Gravity engines? "It's impossible," therefore it's open to ridicule. This page is an unabashed collection of both mainstream and far-fringe Antigravity files and links. Where professionals fear to tread, the lead is taken by amateurs, maverik researchers, and crackpot inventors.

Anti-Gravity Gives Science a Lift Early article on the 1992 findings of Finnish scientists regarding anti-gravity devices. Sums up a follow-up investigation of the claims.

Seven Dimensional (and up) Einsteinian Hyperspherical Universe In Plain English This site consists of descriptive material and informal, non technical discussion of the profound implications of Singularity, Duality and Periodicity in a General Relativity Cosmology Model based on S7... hyperspherical space with seven large dimensions; two/ sphere, Schwarzschild geometry and a single process but periodic time dimension. The model features a discrete, massive quantum Planck Realm, dual 3-space "hemispheres" with submicroscopic, and macroscopic, (astronomical) singular/photonic antipodes, inverse mapping with cosmological time separation, a photon based frame of reference system- and "time reversal" without an inverse process! Cool stuff.

DIPOLE ANTI-GRAVITY Introducing the practical theory of antigravity based on general relativity. Dr. Eue Jin Jeong claims there is a controllable antigravity force in the universe. He shows, in his published papers, this mechanism is responsible for the jet phenomena in the rotating blackhole accretion discs. The giant antigravity force inside the rotating cosmological object is strong enough to eject stellar materials out of its boundary the distance of which is only limited by the rotational frequency.

Gravity Generator The gravitational field generator comprises a stationary superconductor surrounded by a special configuration of RF solenoids. Certain combinations of RF fields will result in the generation of a DC gravitational field in any desired direction in the range of about 10^-22 g m^-2 per ion, depending on ion mass, where g is the acceleration due to gravity. When directed against gravity it acts as an anti-gravity device. When directed horizontally it acts to accelerate or brake a free mass. Appropriate choice of the relative phases of the RF magnetic field causes the gravitational field to form a beam, which will not exhibit the usual inverse square dependence with distance from the source. The production of fields equal to one g is anticipated with this simple arrangement. The theoretical expertise exists to understand controlling mechanisms and to optimize the field for specific applications.

THE IMPULSE GENERATOR: Dr. Evgeny Podkletnov on the Impulse Gravity-Generator; By Tim Ventura & Dr. Evgeny Podkletnov, April 10th, 2006: In 2001, Dr. Evgeny Podkletnov began publishing a series of scientific papers detailing the experimental results of what he called an “impulse gravity generator”. The device reportedly produced hundreds of pounds of gravitational force in a non-diverging beam, capable of “punching holes through concrete and warping metal like hitting it with a sledgehammer”. Podkletnov further added that this beam produced no recoil on the superconducting emitter itself, and that a radiation had been produced behind the device creating a molecular juxtaposition between plastics, metals, and living tissues similar to that described in the Hutchison Effect. This document is the result of 3 interviews between 2004 and 2006 that attempt to document and further clarify his remarkable experimental claims…

BOB LAZAR’S GRAVITY GENERATOR by Paul E. Potter. Bob Lazar worked at Area 51 (or Groom Lake) back in the late 1980’s on a back-engineering program that he claims began there in 1979. He says that an ‘exchange’ program with the ETs occurred in the 1970’s, which, resulted in the acquisition of nine UFOs so that their technologies could be researched. That there were indeed strange craft at Area 51 seems to be corroborated by David Adair’s visit there in 1971.The following is an analysis of the way some types of UFOs travel, its the rubber sheet explanation of space-time manipulation by Bob Lazar...

ANTI-GRAVITY, ANTI-MATTER: A DISCUSSION OF PROPULSION TECHNOLOGIES AND BACK-ENGINEERING This article focuses on propulsion systems, primarily anti-gravity and anti-matter. Several press releases, scientific articles, and science shows have appeared recently which causes us to focus on a significant coincidence. This article attempts to spread light on these coincidences. To do so, we'll focus on several pieces of a larger puzzle. These pieces are a collection of information from various news and television sources. First, we'll cover the Bob Lazar "revelations".

"Antigravity machine weighed down by controversy" Robert Matthews, New Scientist, 21 Sept 1996, p. 7. Mystery surrounds a Russian scientist's astonishing claim to have built an antigravity machine, following his decision to withdraw a paper describing the device from a leading physics joumal.

"One Step Closer to an Antigravity Machine" Business Week Online news flash, 25 Sept 1996. Is it possible to create a device the reduces the effects of gravity? Business Week reported in its Sept. 30 issue that it might be (see "An Antigravitiy Machine? Take That, Issac Newton" ).

"Antigravity? Well, It's All Up in the Air" Otis Port, Business Week, 17 Feb 1997, p. 97. Floating on air? It's possible. Just chill a ceramic superconductor below 90K (-300F) and place it on a magnet. The superconductor will levitate. It's called the Meissner effect, and it might one day lead to an ''antigravity'' machine.

"Antigravity Sightings" John Cramer, Analog Science Fiction and Fact Magazine, March 1997. Over 35 years ago, in an editorial published in the September-1960 issue of this magazine, the great SF editor John W. Campbell, Jr., broke the news of a new gravity- defying invention, the Dean Drive. It was a contraption of weights, gears, and springs, officially registered with the U. S. Patent Office, that operated so as to produce an oscillating force. According to Campbell, when the Dean Drive was operating under power, it registered significantly less than its normal power-off weight on a bathroom scale. This was taken as evidence that a new anti-gravity breakthrough had been made and that one of the mainstays of physics, Newton's 3rd Law of Motion (conservation of momentum) had fallen. One Analog cover of the period depicted a converted submarine, operating under Dean Drive power, landing on the Moon.

" Breaking the Law of Gravity." Big article in Wired Magazine! Wired 6.03 (March, 1998), page 170, has a long article by writer Charles Platt.

ANTI-GRAVITY BREAKTHROUGH It was reported on page 2 of the British newspaper The Sunday Telegraph, September 1, 1996, that the world's first anti-gravity device, now being taken seriously by NASA, is to be the subject of a paper accepted for publication by the Journal of Physics D: Applied Physics, one of the main periodicals published by the Institute of Physics in U.K. The discovery is that of scientists in Finland.

Townsend Brown and his Anti-Gravity Discs by Gaston Burridge Thomas Townsend Brown has been flying strange metal saucer-like discs of his own secret design and make for more than 30 years - some big ones too, up to 30 inches in diameter! Mostly, Brown has flown his discs in good old common air. The discs are tethered to a mast or pole and the thin, double-saucer-like things fly a circle around and around the mast in free flight.

"Biefeld-Brown Effect" The Biefeld–Brown effect is an effect that was discovered by Thomas Townsend Brown (USA) and Dr. Paul Alfred Biefeld (CH). The effect is more widely referred to as electrohydrodynamics (EHD) or sometimes electro-fluid-dynamics, a counterpart to the well-known magneto-hydrodynamics. Extensive research was performed during the 1950's and 1960's on the use of this electric propulsion effect during the publicized era of gravity control propulsion research. During 1964, Major De Seversky had in fact published a lot of his related work in U.S. Patent 3,130,945 , and with the aim to forestall any possible misunderstanding about these devices, had termed these flying machines as ionocrafts. In the following years, many promising concepts had to be abandoned and forgotten due to the technological limitations, but at the same time, science has advanced a lot in the EHD field. The effect has only recently become popular again and such flying devices are now known as EHD thrusters. Simple single-stage versions lifted by this effect are sometimes also called lifters.

BiefeldBrown.com - The Biefeld Brown Effect The Biefeld Brown effect is a natural phenomenon that let a simple structure fly without moving parts by using high voltages. We call this structures 'flyers'. A basic flyer is build of two triangles, one build of thin copper wire and one of wood with hanging aluminum foil. The two triangles are separated from each other...

Transcending the Control System: The Biefeld-Brown Effect To understand the Biefeld-Brown effect, we must understand why electric dipoles (positive and negative charges separated by a fixed distance) accelerate toward the positive pole. The answer is simple: Positive and negative charges, in addition to creating an electric field, also generate slight gravitational fields. You could say charged masses warp space more than uncharged masses do. Positive charges induce a convergence in space and negative charges inducing a divergence in space. Thus, positive charges emit a gravitational field while negative charges emit an antigravitational field. This arises purely from the geometry of the electric field, which happens to include a component that shares the same geometry as a gravity field and thus gives rise to one. . .

Reactionless Propulsion and Active Force By Alexander V. Frolov. The goal of the report is to demonstrate some technological ways to create active force that don't require reactive mass flow. The active force is applied to many aerodynamics systems and it is result of the pressure difference from the medium to the system. By analogy, the space-time itself can be considered as some medium of interaction.

Breakthrough Physics Program at NASA In 1996, a team of government, university and industry researchers proposed a program seek the ultimate breakthroughs in space transportation: propulsion that requires no propellant mass, propulsion that can approach and, if possible, circumvent light speed, and breakthrough methods of energy production power such devices. This Breakthrough Propulsion Physics program, managed by Lewis Research Center, is one part of a comprehensive, long range Advanced Space Transportation Plan managed by Marshall Space Flight Center.
