Antigravity, Gravity Control. Introduction If you were born between 1930 something and 1960 you were a part of the ufo phenomenon that swept the world in the fifties. And many contemplated the idea of antigravity such as Thomas Townsend-Brown and before him Nikola Tesla and before him John Worrell Keely, who takes us to a place before any of us were born, the 1880's. Keely's method of gravity control involved sympathetic vibration at the atomic level while Tesla's system took energy from the aether.
Viktor Stepanovich Grebennikov employed another idea which involved a natural lift from cavity structures in insects. The scientists other than previous who achieved antigravity were John Searle, Townsend-Brown, Eric Laithwaite, John Hutchison and Evgeny Podkletnov. Much of the above has slipped from history. Antigravity To many people, the term, antigravity has the same meaning as gravity control. Meanwhile in 1930’s Germany they were well ahead of the west in saucer technology, all seized and shutdown after the war. Monthly Sky Watch. Here are the monthly sky watch highlights.
Each month, we share the wonders of the universe to help you explore the night sky from your own backyard. (Note: Times listed below are ET.) April 2014 by Bob Berman, as featured in The Old Farmer's Almanac The Moon glides below Jupiter on the 6th of April. Mars reaches opposition on the 8th and is closest to Earth on the 14th, which will make the Red Planet easy to spot in the night sky. At opposition, the planet Mars, Earth, and the Sun are arranged in a nearly-straight line. Vesta, the brightest asterioid at –5.8, reaches opposition on the 13th in Virgo.
Remarkably, on the same night that Mars is closest to Earth, there will be a total eclipse of the Moon. Sky Map Astronomer Jeff DeTray has created the sky map below to help you navigate the APRIL sky. This month's highlight: A total eclipse of the Moon. The night of April 14–15 offers one of the most spectacular sky gazing sights of this year—a total eclipse of the Moon. At 1:58 a.m. Merveilles du ciel austral.
La Voie lactée est au centre de cette photographie du ciel entier. En bas et à droite de l’image apparaissent les deux grands satellites de notre galaxie, les Nuages de Magellan. Photo S.Brunier/ESO. La nuit a été calme au Cerro Paranal. La plateforme de l’observatoire était étonnamment silencieuse : il n’y a pas d’oiseaux, pas d’insectes ici… Seule la rotation des coupoles, par moments, troublait le silence. Au centre de l’image, Omega Centauri… Cette photo de l’amas Omega Centauri a été prise sur un pied photo avec un boîtier numérique Nikon D3 S, un objectif de 58 mm de focale fermé à 2.8. Mais l’astre le plus impressionnant, à mon avis, du ciel austral, est, en apparence, beaucoup plus discret.
