S SUBJECT: GENERATION OF BALL LIGHTNING FILE: UFO3117 (word processor parameters LM=8, RM=78, TM=2, BM=2) Taken from KeelyNet BBS (214) 324-3501 Sponsored by Vangard Sciences PO BOX 1031 Mesquite, TX 75150 August 24, 1990 BALL1.ASC -------------------------------------------------------------------- The latest on the controlled generation of Ball Lightning basic info from the September 90' issue of Electronics World -------------------------------------------------------------------- A team of Japanese researchers, under the guidance of Professor Yoshihiko Otsuki at Tokyo's Waseda University have successfully generated ball lighting. Detailed reports are not available at this time although the experiment is known to have been conducted out of doors. The output from a 2KW microwave oven was attached to a TUBE OF COPPER WIRE MESH which then served as an OPEN WAVEGUIDE. When the oven was turned on, the tube produced a glowing ball 2 to 3 centimeters in diameter that floated along the mesh for nearly 2 minutes. During this period, the ball was seen to change from white to a dazzling orange. -------------------------------------------------------------------- Vangard notes... Researchers in the field of ball energy no doubt are aware of the accidental generation of ball lightning onboard submarines. Relays used on subs have contacts which have a downward curve on the end which opens. The idea is to quench the intense electrical arc which helps to reduce the life of the contacts. This type of contact acts as a sort of waveguide to "shape" the high intensity electrical field (no doubt having metal residue in addition to carbon) into the shape of a sphere. The description of the antics which the submarine ball lightning carried out are very similar. A spherical waveguide would be a much more logical means of generating a 3 dimensional sphere which, with sufficient velocity, could be thrown off the end of the tube. KeelyNet users are referred to the file NAZI1.ASC for more Page 1 information on the Kugelblitz and Feurball fighters developed by the Germans prior to the end of WWII. In addition, you might find the article by Larry Spring interesting which is entitled SPHERE1.ASC. It deals with Larry's discovery that all propagating waves take the form of a sphere. We will keep you informed of anything else we find since this subject will eventually lead to a form of levitation much akin to the Kugelblitz technology which disappeared at the end of WWII. -------------------------------------------------------------------- If you have comments or other information relating to such topics as this paper covers, please upload to KeelyNet or send to the Vangard Sciences address as listed on the first page.
