Flying Saucer...
« on: January 26, 2006, 02:43:10 PM »
Hum,
Since the age of the 1950s B-movies, flying saucers have been the vehicle of choice for any discerning alien. Looking like a cross between a metal hubcap and a glow-in-the-dark frisbee, these strange spacecraft have fascinated us for decades. Whether you accept Area 51 or reject the Roswell Incident, there's still a chance you may see a flying saucer in the not too distant future. However, rather than carrying extra-terrestrials from other planets, the saucer could be transporting you round the Earth.

A lone inventor has managed to create a stabile flying craft in his workshop.
Nasa and various other government agencies are eager to buy into the technology.

The principle used to create the stability is down to the shape of the  saucer.
In the same way that water from a tap bends  around a spoon, the down draft of air creates a  self-levelling craft.

The inventor, who is a model airplane builder, hope to create a larger version. With a full size craft able to carry a person produced in 2008.

Hum,
Tnx for the link.
But no, not that one....

This one can hover and take off vertically and land vertically.

Nasa had tried such devices in the 70s but failed with the stability aspect.

That page is nuts.

I bet whoever designed that 'hoverboard' also loves wrestling, log cutting and chequered shirts.

I particularly like the plasma-sabre section where you can buy your own swirling, humming jedi stick. For $390 though the force would definately on your wallet be!

Hi,
yeah.
i was drawn to the DIY Time Portals...

If you wish to travel physically through time, then this is the report for you. Shows you how to construct several different Time Portals including the  Hyperdimensional Grid Point, which is essentially 2 opposing Hyperdimensional Resonator coils. Also contains information on how to construct an artificial grid point and background information on Radionics and on Nikola Tesla.

ONLY 30 DOLLARS! - (So once i got the plans i can just photocopy  it and send it back to myself so that i don`t need to buy it...)

Hah!

It's amazing with half these gadgets how they haven't become billionaires.

Could it be that they were ripped out of a Star Trek annual and don't actually work? I notice every page tells you how to make your own and sells the plans for $19.95.

I really like the one where you give a device 16 volts and it gives you back 23 volts. Sounds a bit like something they'd stick on a Las Vegas casino door.

blobrana, what were you doing up at 4:16am... I left Amiga.org at about 2:00am when the only other person sitting here was Wayne! Have you set the alarm properly on your interdimensional time device?

Even better, send them back to a time before this guy started selling these plans, then sue him for copyright infringement and start selling them yourself  :evilgrin:
On schedule, and suing

Personally I think all flying saucers are just launch vehicle debris falling back to Earth. If a military satellite wasn't scheduled it'll be for spying so they'll make up a story about extra terrestrials to put us off the scent (although lately the trend seems to be launching satellites to monitor global warming and heal the world).

As for paranormal occurences where people experience losing time and witnessing grotesque creatures, that'll be down to surfing Amiga.org on an AGA chipset.

I remember last year setting up my camcorder on a tripod to film Mars when it was just 56m miles away, the closest this century or something they said. Well I zoomed in (this thing only had 22x optical) and I filmed it for hours.

When you fast forwarded you could see the planet moving out of the field of view, dunno if this was the earth moving or Mars. It was a deep pink colour and I was delighted.

Turns out it wasn't Mars but Jupiter or Venus (I was filming the wrong side of the sky!).

Thank God I wasn't filming Uranus. That would have been a 'bummer'.

A bad joke like that is usually followed with a 'rimshot' ;-)

Just as the 'stealth' planes were developed from captured German technology - the Horten flying wing, flying saucers may also have been developed from German circular-wing craft

Together with U.S. government confiscation of secret Nazi anti-gravity technology, who knows what is being worked on over there?

And what the hell does a flying wing have to do with stealth technology. :lol:
