Thomas, and all,
As far as 'electrogravitics' goes, I can speak to this
a bit, as I've experimented with it for quite a number
of years.
The first thing I'll say is, Townsend Brown obviously
meant something different by electrokinetics and
electrogravitics.
As I understand it, while TT Brown's effect does produce lift: A. it
consumes more energy per pound levitated than a rocket. Rockets are not
economy vehicles. B. the power supply remains on the ground, meaning the
lifter is connected by a drop cord. This works great until you run out
of drop cord.
These things
won't produce any external thrust if you shield them
properly against wind effects and field effects,
Part of Dan Davidson's Shape Power books is speculation about insect
wings. One of the graphics shows Victor S Grebennikov on his levitating
platform. One wonders, if the Russians can do that, why aren't they
marketing it at Toys R Us? Not only that, they've been launching
packages into orbit, why are they still using rockets?
As far as Wallace's work, I have no experience here,
so cannot comment on it. Trying to make something like
that out of brass would be expensive, and require some
careful machining.
Sort of like building a Repulsine,eh?
