Comment on MegaAmpere to MegaGauss- Using laser fluctuations to measure gravitational potential turbulence

‪This intro added 10 Jul 2022 in update to “Solar System Gravimetry and Gravitational Engineering ” Comment on “MegaAmpere to MegaGauss” – Using laser fluctuations to measure gravitational potential turbulence To generate intense fields to control the motion of matter. To emulate gravitational acceleration so precisely there is almost no error in position or other

Note on my Facebook page about gravitational energy density

For more than 50 years I have been trying to understand the gravitational potential. I used it for orbit determinations when I worked at my first job at the CIA, then later worked on a NASA project to determine the geopotential itself using satellite orbits and measurements to solve for the shape and properties of

Comment on Comment – Supernova near the earth 2.5 M years ago

Where do the elements come from? Nucleosynthesis in stellar environments at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6C-F7afeupw Interesting. (“fe60” OR “al36”) “supernova” has 6170 entry points (Google, 26 Jun 2022) and fairly rich in particulars Interstellar 60 Fe on the Surface of the Moon at https://journals.aps.org/prl/abstract/10.1103/PhysRevLett.116.151104 Limits on Supernova-Associated Fe 60 / Al 26 Nucleosynthesis Ratios from Accelerator Mass Spectrometry Measurements

Comment on Integrated Water Strategies, Thinking Outside The Pipe

Integrated Water Strategies: Thinking Outside The Pipe at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h1Lq7COGD2Q These seem to be very expensive methods. Do you have a cost breakdown? Homes, schools, businesses, small farms, abandoned land, landfills, poor counties, poor cities, poor countries. Nothing wrong, except the world and climate change is very large. Teaching only methods – without also teaching how

Posted to Facebook for Dot Watts about ResearchGate project on Ancient Human Tribes spanning the globe.

I don’t know if you will be able to see things on ResearchGate without joining. But I started a project about “ancient tribes”. I ask if Neaderthals Denisovians and other early species of humans could have been able to travel to the Americas many tens of thousands of years before “modern human Native Americans” got

Comment on Damping and Damped Harmonic Motion Video – Get out of the way and let us see what you did

Damping and Damped Harmonic Motion at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qxDvW8_fm7I Don’t stand in front of the board. Use a laser pointer and stand outside the screen. Your hand waving just gets in the way. Nice presentation, if I did not have to look around you to see the equations and results. You can use a small inset with you,

Update to Solar System Gravimetry and Gravitational Engineering

Everyone, I am including this as an update to this project because the routine laboratory and wide area measurement of the speed of the gravitational potential is critical to all the groups working together. You HAVE to be able to measure the signals at high enough sampling rates to get good correlations and comparisons. For

Update on Richard Collins “Solar System Gravimetry and Gravitational Engineering” project on ResearchGate

https://www.researchgate.net/project/Solar-System-Gravimetry-and-Gravitational-Engineering I was updating my notes of gravimeter arrays as gravitational imaging arrays. At the end I recommend using electrons interferometer and related electron methods for measuring and monitoring acceleration. Every electron on earth has mass and is affected individually by the changing gravitational field. Electron methods are far in advance of atom methods, less

Comments and Suggestions for Gresham Meggett Oral History Project Kick-Off Meeting, Criminal Law

Gresham College: Gresham Meggett Oral History Project Kick-Off Meeting at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a-Ii8Iwc-As This would be much better and more accessible if there were English captions and transcript. The auto translations to other languages is something that Google/YouTube does pretty well. Desegregation and oral history are global cross-cutting issues of interest to most cultures. But (oral history
