Antigravity Simulators

© IRPT.INFO

Simulator testing the operations of a complex apparatus, such as an antigravity platform, requires a thorough understanding of the kinematic- and dynamic-similarity laws. Test on small-scaled models have not been carried out successfully. Although true physical feel was actually never achieved, full-scale simulators with qualified actuation systems have proven to be the best avenue of approach.

The simulator group included technically talented aviators with considerable stick and rudder skills. Perquisites, when planning human flights, while seeking every way to make the platform technically manageable. The program was designed to reduce the development risk of the antigravity functionality, using a combination of flight tests and flight-validated ground simulations.

Simulating routine activities of flight gave the pilot some weird sensations. Such as, when tumbling in all six degrees of freedom, without the rigors of natural inertial forces. With the in flight local gravity field alteration there is no 'up' or 'down' for the pull of gravity. No seatbelts needed. Data from conventional centrifuge tests and the antigravity inertial free dynamics, were no longer compatible. Various advanced cockpit displays and avionics systems were developed to deal with attitude determination and control. The regular accelerometers and gyroscopes were discarded. GPS for position, velocity and attitude was a better option for near earth-space operation of the craft. Raising the bar with precision guidance of GPS, the challenge was to reduce the size and complexity of the flight actuators. That is, fitting all the digital processing chips, fiber optic inserts, high performance harnesses and harnessing components etc, and wrap the tightest possible structure around these systems. Excessive heating also took time to resolve.

The development of antigravity platforms has pushed forward the frontiers of knowledge [1]. New product applications have been gradually extracted. The information-carrying capacity of the fiber optics are integrated in the flight deck and flight critical systems [2]. Such as, a multi-layered superconducting network that integrates synthetic vision, light emitting diodes (LED) warning coloration, autonomous terrain avoidance and multispectral/ hyperspectral sensing.

Townsend Brown, Paul Alfred Biefeld, Kaluza Klein, Roger Babson, Banesh Hoffmann, Vaclav Hlavaty, etc. Ironically, these innovators of earlier have also been fighting against predisposed academic authorities. In truth, the 'free vision' kindled in the mind of the individual has been the midwife to radical revisioning of science and staggering technological advances.

[2] Issued bulletin 2005-02-03, from Honeywell Aerospace Electronic Systems & SiOptical (involved in intelligence and military space projects): A shift to fiber optics for radiation hardened electronics (chips). Fotons transmitting data are less affected by an incoming electromagnetic pulse (EMP), created by a high-altitude nuclear blast. The electromagnetic (EM) radiation is the damage mechanism. Optical devices are also less affected by a local gravity field alteration. A quality considered to belong naturally with electrogravitics and other antigravity propulsion modes.
