This might be more of a "fun" question but do you see an "anime universe" existing in a multiverse?

Tom how much do you think it would cost to run a Podkletnov-like experiement with a hollow cylinder instead of a flat plate?

Sounds like he got it through the 'telegraph' game.

Even Einstein has been accused of assigning specific ideas to "Mach's conjecture" as he called it, which Mach himself may not have intended. Einstein is not the only one with his own twist on Mach's ideas and there are numerous others which is why I say it's not clear what someone means exactly when they refer to Mach's hypothesis; it's not precisely defined.

Woodward's idea has its own name, the Woodward effect which the linked patent attempts to utilize to transiently change the mass of an object. An extension of the idea can result in a propulsion concept but by now that patent has probably expired and I'm not aware of any working devices ever made to propel a craft as the patent suggests.

Are you talking about the purple streak due to charge spill in the camera's image sensor? We already explained that as a sensor artifact, not light bending. I didn't see any other "bending" of light in your signature video aside from that artifact, which does not actually show light bending.

I can't prove a negative so I can't prove what that guy is saying is wrong, however lots of people tell lots of stories and I'm pretty sure they aren't all true. Maybe some are, but without proof, how does one determine which claims are false and which claims are true?

a reply to: Arbitrageur

Oh I'm totally agnostic about the whole tale. Jukiodone wanted to know more about the two methods Bedlam was referring to, so I figured he'd be interested. ('that guy' is Bedlam btw)

ETA: Besides do you not see bending of light in the Ark Video in the thread in my signature?

Simply put.... NO...

see about 20 posts on previous pages as to why

That's the fun bit surely....?
I rather like the format but get that it cant be discussed in this type of thread so

Purple streak, you explanation is only an excuse.

All flimsy excuses from your side, im afraid

So is it your contention then that you'd see the purple streak with the naked eye, without the camera?

What about the similar streak shown in the video of the car headlights? Are you saying you'd also see that streak without the camera? Did you watch that video?

It's a camera artifact in both cases. Simple way to test that: rotate the camera slightly. Charge spill image sensor artifact should rotate with the rotation of the image sensor. So rotating the camera 20 degrees should show purple streak at 70 degrees angle with the ground instead of 90 degrees. If the streak of light was really coming from the machine at 90 degree angle from the ground, then it will stay at 90 degrees angle from the ground regardless of camera rotation.

Funny, very funny.

More probable is 100% ignorance from your side... both Arbitrageur and I have given you a wealth of information, and you have chosen, repeatedly, to ignore it in order to prop up your own view. You also refuse to actually do any research. Or answer any questions with anything quantitive...

Double post - please delete

well take a cubicle box, put some lights on it, take a video and show me replication of what you see in the video, image distortion of the box and purple steak getting stronger wrt time and purple streak bending. time to put your money where your mouth is.

Know ye not that, engineers are seldom wrong and they do ardent research as well with whatever resources are there at their disposal.

Time for you to put your reading comprehension and memory retention to work so I don't have to repeat myself. I already explained that image sensors are not all created equal. Some cameras have electronics to suppress such artifacts and I haven't seen those artifacts yet on my camera but I haven't had it long either.

The color can depend on a number of factors but the streak is often not the same color as the original light source for various reasons. Besides Eros already showed you the headlights with the similar effect and you still haven't answered my question if you'd expect to see that streak with the headlights or "the ark" without the camera, but just viewing with naked eye. So to repeat, do you think you could see either streak without the camera? What about this green streak, do you think you could see this without a camera?

Thanks a bunch, I just wanted some one to clarify to me what is Terrils rotation and how it is tied to SR. Wiki pages were too complicated for me to pin point the connection and meaning. I guess I will have to ask else where.
The rest of what you have said in that reply I already knew.

thank you.

Hombre, instead of armchair typing, replicate the expt and show me all the effects, including anti gravity, that you see in the video, you may use your mobile camera if you wish. my cheap mobile camera cannot produce any streaks. besides in that video, how would i know if you can see the streaks with the naked eye or not?

Or you could do what any scientist would do which is perform your own experiments, provide proof of your own concepts/ideas... and don't claim you have already done it, posting someone else's videos, not knowing anything about the equipment they are using and then claiming it to be better than at least 4 examples given to you here is like i said, getting very old. then following with a 'oh its so simple do it yourself' when you haven't even shown anything that is remotely claimable as evidence to anyone who isn't in play school still.

An extraordinary claim requires extraordinary evidence, what you have provided is neither extraordinary or convincing. You clearly do not understand how CCDs work in cameras in the same way as the moon hoax claimants claim that seeing no stars in the sky is because its faked.... rather than actually knowing anything at all about photography.

SO lets see you do some of these experiments... get your cheap camera, get your candles and show us some video evidence of all these effects.

Lol. You are playng ping pong now. I have told you to make good on all your excuses and replicate that video. I have at least succeeded with the candles. Go on put your money where your mouth is and stop being an armchair claimant.

a reply to: Nochzwei

I have, already looked at more than candles over a distance much greater than 2 meters. Done the candle test also, found nothing significant that could be caused by lensing. There is no ping pong match... just the balls hitting the floor on your side and you not bothering to acknowledge it.

Armchair claimant haha, pretty funny man... you know I work at SNOLAB right? Armchair science is not what I do
