Stealth's Radioactive Secret Pretty interesting article that may explain half of all U.S. UFO reports in the 50's and 60's ? Stealth's Radioactive Secret[Part one] This is the first in two-part series from exotic weapons guru David Hambling. There’s a simple technology that could transform civil aviation, slashing fuel consumption, reducing greenhouse emissions and cutting noise. The problem is, nobody knows about it – yet. It's a military secret. The way technology migrates from classified weapons programs to everyday life is the theme of my book, Weapons Grade. (Did I mention it was out in paperback this week?) We wouldn’t have jet aircraft, computers or satellite communications without such programs. But when they stay secret, the public benefit is lost. What would have happened to the electronics industry if the transistor had not been declassified in 1949? Plasma aerodynamics offers tantalizing promises of improving aircraft performance. By producing a thin layer of charged particles around an aircraft you can change the behavior of the boundary layer, significantly reducing friction. The charged layer also absorbs radar, improving stealth. defensetech.org Glowing Planes, Hidden Bombers [Part 2] defensetech.org Image: "Cloud surrounding B2 Bomber" fluidmech.net Interesting blog comment by the author: "You have to look carefully to distinguish noise from signal - but look at the experimental results described in the patents and I think you'll find it worthwhile."
