RE: Dark Matter is the Waste Product of this Electrical Generation System, and it is the Greatest Technological Leap Since Agriculture!

in #power7 years ago

Brilliant Light Power, Inc., founded by Dr. Randall Mills,....is he back again? I've been seeing him promise something like this, in one form or another. any day now for perhaps twenty years.

Color me skeptical.

If he could do it...he would.

I am NOT convinced.

Sort:  

I myself was quite skeptical, although I note the quite bright UV light my welding produces. That, in fact, was what convinced me to look more carefully at the project.

I am yet unconvinced that Hydrinos are Dark Matter, or that Dark Matter even exists. But, the paper I read was substantive, and the technology seems solid.

I'd really hate it if you were right about this guy. I vaguely recall reading about it before, and not being convinced it was legit.

IF the claims about the amount of UV light that is emitted by the plasma is true, and not just fabricated data, then I see no other problems with the tech.

I tried to link the PDF I downloaded with the paper detailing the science, but PDF is not JPG, and Steemit won't let me =/

consider this...
Dr. Mills says a device weighing about 250 pounds can produce 250 kw of electricity, and they can make it for about $25k

well guess what

...my caterpillar 3406e diesel engine( that I drove for 1.5 million miles)
put out 375Kw . It weighed about a ton and a half and cost....
.
(wait for it)
.
$25K...in 1999.(just the engine..the whole truck cost $150,000)

(cough)..

weight is a BIG thing for trukers...an engine that would put out the same power for one-tenth the weight...at the SAME PRICE?

What do you expect the truckers would do if that were offered to them?
Dr. Mills is a smart guy...right?

Oh...Hydrogen is possibly the most well understood of all the elements. Has anyone else EVER said anything about a Hydrino?

Exactly!

Also, regarding Hydrinos, er... exactly.

Now I suspect I just got sucked in by a paper fulla calculus I can't follow...

sorry...
my personal "I want it to happen SO bad" is Non-Statistical Fusion Reactions In Atomic Scale Accelerators

  • A sub-nuclear resolution microscopic accelerator just a few centimeters long and only a few nano-meter wide might theoretically initiate individually controlled fusion reactions without requiring thermonuclear temperatures or confinement.
    .
    In the last few years, researchers have created precise atomic structures using atomic force microscope equipment (piezo electric and magnostrictive crystals used to position sensing probes and atomic position probes). Recently researchers at IBM have created an atomically perfect ring of copper atoms to create an electron standing wave pattern. Other researchers have created various other atomic scale structures such as nano-meter-sized-tubes and Buckminster Fullerenes.

If you've read Asimov, you'll be familiar with the Second Foundation's particular expertise with microscopic fusion reactors.

This would be better than "Mr. Fusion", as they would be significantly smaller.

I wouldn't mind me some fusion-on-a-chip. I think Hari Seldon would approve.

Yup...I read Asimov...I don't recall 'fusion on a chip'..but I can't see any reason why it wouldn't work.

Making such small but potent magnetic fields requisite to containing the energies released is an engineering problem, but at the nanoscale, which is where we go at this size, it is somewhat less predictable.
