Lightning comes from Space
Dear Folks:
I sent youall some of my correspondance involving fusion power a few months ago. A new thread has evolved, the top lightning researcher in the world, Joe Dwyer at FIT, got his Y-ray and X-ray research published in this months Scientific American, www.sciam.com/article.cfm...414B7FFE9F Sorry that the Sciam article was a tease, here's the meaty stuff: www.lightning.ece.ufl.edu...marays.pdf and according to Clint Seward it supports his lightning models and fusion work at EPS, Electron Power Systems www.electronpowersystems.com/ . He proposes applications as varied as home power generation@ .ooo5 cents/KWhr, cars, distributed power, airplanes, space propulsion , power storage and kinetic weapons. And also provides a theoretic base for ball lightning: Ball Lightning Explained as a Stable Plasma Toroid www.electronpowersystems....lained.pdf Clint sent me his new paper on a lightning charge transport model of clould to ground lightning (If your interested I'll send it,he did not want me to post it to the web yet) and if Joe concurs with it's theory it could mean big press for EPS. It may also explain Elves, blue jets, sprites and red sprites, plasmas that appear above thunder storms. After a little searching, this seemed to have the best hard numbers on the observations of sprites. Dr. Mark A. Stanley's Dissertation And may also explain the sprial twist of fulgurites, hollow fused sand tubes found in the ground at lightning strikes. Not to blow my own horn, but I got them talking with my E-mail inquires! Erich Knight shengar@aol.com
