Re: About "The Space Brothers"
According to a "Twigsnapper" post, Bergier came to Washington in 1953, the year that Linda first saw the silver model of the scout ship. Are these events connected? Strangely, in Linda's memory of events, it was only after the model appeared, that Townsend asked family friend and engineer...

Re: About "The Space Brothers"
On notebook page 1-062, 25 January 1957, Bahnson writes: Let us assume that the curvature of "bending stresses" from the mass of the earth cannot be altered but that these "bending stresses" from the mass of a craft which interacts with the earth stresses to provide a gravitation...

Re: About "The Space Brothers"
Hi David. I have received your private message, and no, I have no hard feelings toward you. I've been writing in this thread specifically with you (and Henry, our other new person) in mind, trying to summarize as best as I can what we currently believe to be true about Townsend Brown and his colleag...

Re: About "The Space Brothers"
Here is what I read into that: Bahnson wants to propose an experiment to "exploit" (enhance, maybe?) a feature of something that has come out of his lab. His thinks that this might best be done in space. NASA had not yet been formally created, at the time he was writing this, but he has b...

Re: About "The Space Brothers"
A 2015 blog post (author unknown to me at the moment) provides part of the answer: Bahnson was connected through a 1936 road accident in the USSR (!), to a Harvard scholar involved in MIT Radar testing: David Tressel Griggs. Oh and who became Chief Scientist for the USAF (for 1951-1952). Was this in...

Re: About "The Space Brothers"
I wouldn't dare presume to tell researchers what they want, only assist them to locate what they need. You alone have gleaned FAR more from these links than I have up to this point. It does help, when one is searching, to already be a little familiar with the material. Let me just say, though, that...

Re: About "The Space Brothers"
Hi David. Yes, the quality of Google search results has declined dramatically since about 2019, when there were internal shakeups at Google and the departure of a key search architect.

Re: Did "Morgan" ever "die" in a fiery car crash?
I have finished transcribing the Hull Letter, and added it as an attachment to the post a couple back. I've also put it up on the Internet Archive here: https://archive.org/details/townsend-hull-letter-transcript One more note which has always bugged me about Townsend's Winterhaven-era off-the-map g...

Re: Paul, ICYMI Bill Gates HOT fusion
I wonder if Microsoft could allocate a few of those sentient AI supercomputer gigawatts towards fixing some of the security bugs in Windows before they are found by international crime syndicates, and not after.5 gigawatts is... a LOT.

Re: Paul, ICYMI Bill Gates HOT fusion
Hmm, Z-pinch. It's certainly not the first time that approach to hot fusion has been tried. A lot of Silicon Valley venture capital investors in the last few years are sure that they can make various failed 1950s fusion schemes succeed just because they are from the Internet generation. It can't hur...

Re: 21st Century Propulsion Report prepared for Dr. Franklin Meade by Veritay technologies
A ping on this one, and after watching the Tim Ventura interview, yes I agree it deserves its own thread. That's my excuse, anyway: I accidentally created one in the lonely forum "Tech Talk (23)" a few days ago, before I realised Paul had already mentioned it here and my memory had blanked...

Re: Did "Morgan" ever "die" in a fiery car crash?
I feel the same way about the whole elaborate story Cornillion told his employers, about how he spent 1995 trying to chase down Townsend Brown. But I know from Linda that he was the Brown's landlord during their Embassy Laundry period (1993-94). So who was his elaborate charade meant to convince, a...

Re: Did "Morgan" ever "die" in a fiery car crash?
When Townsend replied to Gray Barker's queries, (or was it Ed Hull') he said he found Brush's work in the Pacific Aeronautical Library in Santa Monica. It is in one or the other of those letters, and both were once online somewhere. Though Townsend would be in LA in 51/52, I have a feeling this eve...

Re: Raymond Lavas and the Puzzle Palace Book...
I think the software was modified for airplanes at Skunk Works No, that doesn't make any sense at all. PROMIS was a minicomputer database: something a bit like, say, Microsoft Access today. Airplanes run on avionics hardware. You don't run supersonic jet fighters on databases, you need specialist, ...
