Journal of Applied Physics, NASA, and the Hydrino

Posted by timothy on from the sounds-like-a-snack-food dept.

Erik Baard writes "I wanted to bring you the last on a story that was slashdotted in June: NASA's investigation of the 'hydrino' rocket. In June I reported for wired.com that the NASA Institute for Advanced Concepts was funding a six-month study of rockets propeled by plasmas created by BlackLight Power Inc. The company claims that energy is released when it shrinks hydrogen atoms, bringing the electron closer into its nucleus than thought possible. Here's the scoop: the researcher told NASA that *something* was indeed generating plasmas with more kinetic energy than would be expected for the power input. And the kicker is that BlackLight founder Randell Mills scored a paper about his plasmas in the mainstream Journal of Applied Physics -- after a few years of following this bizarre startup, that floored me." Here's the Village Voice story with these updates.

    In reference to: "The company claims that energy is released when it shrinks hydrogen atoms, bringing the electron closer into its nucleus than thought possible."

    They should add a new line to the Slashdot FAQ: "You should only read this site if you payed attention in science class."

      They were not bombs, they were the wrath of Allah. It is a punishment to the dirty sand niggers for not killing infidels fast enough for the streets of New York to run with the blood of the Great Satan.

    Want to go to the stars? You don't get there by this "hydrino" FILTH, you pick up a Bible and go there! The Bible can take you anywhere with the Lord's help. If there is anymore blasphemy on this site then I'm going to personally report this site and it's operators to the Department of Homeland Security.

    The people waste with this so-called science (the only Truth is the word of God) could be spent much better praising God and reading your Bible.
