Welcome to Master of Science with host Professor James McCanny.
The good professor's career spans fifty years as a university teacher, scientist,
and engineer. Each week, he will explore the rapidly changing
world of science as many long held theories are crumbling
under the weight of new data. He will cover the

(00:23):
fields of geology, archaeology, meteorology, oceanography, space science, astronomy, cosmology,
biological evolution, virology, energy, mathematics and war. So please welcome
the host of Master of Science, James McCanny.

Speaker 2 (00:52):
Good evening, everybody, Welcome again, and tonight I want to
lead off with a little bit of commentary on that
blue Ghost lander landed on the Moon. A pretty big
event because I've watched a number of these fail that
came from private parties, private enterprises, and of course they

(01:13):
always have to have some assistance from NASA, either telecommunications
or there's so many aspects to this. But they were
a private company and landed on the Moon. Now we've
had countries, We've had India, China, Russia, the United States
and other efforts that were government funded landing on the Moon.

(01:38):
In fact, it goes all the way back to the
sixties where the Russians were landing on the Moon getting
rock samples, they were able to bring lunar rocks back.
But of course, the odd thing there is that anything
on the surface of the Moon has nothing to do
with the Moon, because all this stuff is constantly falling

(01:59):
down on the Moon from from away from the Moon,
and so anything you pick up on the surface has
zero to do with the Moon. And so the moon
rocks you may as well call them just outer space rocks.
And recently, who was at the latest group to bring
back some rocks for the Chinese, I believe, to take

(02:22):
some samples. And even if you drill and you think, oh, well,
maybe you could drill down little ways, No, you're going
to have to go down a long, long ways, much
farther than your little drill bit from a little lander,
much deeper than what a lander can drill. So the
surface of the Moon is has nothing to do with

(02:46):
the Moon. Okay, So but anyway, congratulations to the Blue
Ghost Team company. Is that is a big, a big deal.
Let's just put it that, and that just shows you
where the space program is going. The space program is
going private. And just to be clear, and NASA really

(03:11):
has not been back to the Moon, and anyway, that's
a whole complicated topping in itself. Congratulations. But on the
flip side of this, now, I was just kind of amazed,
I guess I'll use that word to be kind. When
I looked at the photographs of this lander. They showed

(03:35):
pictures of the lander in orbit, and you could see
the curvature of the Moon, indicating that they were still
quite far from the lunar surface, and then they're coming
down and then all of a sudden, it's blank. And
now we've got a few pictures. There's one of a
sunrise which all you can see is glare. It may
have taken it from your gramma's balcony or something of

(03:57):
a sunrise. It's just a glare. It doesn't show the
surface of the Moon at all. And then there's one
that shows the shadow of the of the lander, the
Blue Ghost Lander, and it looks like like slate, like

(04:18):
just like almost reflective. And here's one of the things
that I have said previously is that I don't think
we've really seen the real surface of the Moon. And
now the India lander that landed on the South Pole,
this was about a year ago. I don't know the

(04:38):
exact date, but it landed kind of kitty wampus, but
they were still able to get some photos that to
me was probably the most realistic picture of the lunar
surface that I've seen, because here, just imagine you have
stuff falling in you have craters. So you have big,
big craters, meaning that got something large crashed into the

(05:02):
Moon and created a crater and who knows when, but
the surface is completely covered with park marts. And I'll
talk about Mars in just a minute. The surface of
Mars in the cratering on Mars. Mars is very different
because Mars had oceans, and so you find a good

(05:24):
portion of the surface of Mars where the oceans were recently,
not billions of years ago, but recently, and there's just
no cratering at all. It might be one or two
little ones here and there, but the grand portion of
the surface of Mars is not cratered. And that means
that there had to bend water there that eRASS basically

(05:48):
erased any cratering and left a nice smooth surface. And
then right next to it where there was higher land,
you see a lot of cratering like on the Moon.
Extensive cratering, and so that means that Mars, of course,
sitting out near the asteroid belt, is prime target for
asteroid collisions, whereas Earth is we're a little bit more

(06:09):
removed from that, thank goodness. But Earth has been pummeled,
you know, repeatedly from outer space with rocks, etc. And
every day I forget how many tons of material fall
in from outer space in the form of meteorites, these
little like p sized objects that come in and burn up,

(06:30):
and if you're lucky at night, you see some of these. Okay,
back to the Moon. The Moon's the lunar surface. So
what would you theoretically expect the lunar surface to look like?
And the answer would be extremely rough. Not this nice
little thin layer of dust that looks like, you know,

(06:54):
looks like a warehouse and somewhere in southwest Arizona or something.
That's not what the lunar surface should look like theoretically,
because all of this material, rocks, boulders, fine gradings of sand,
everything in between. And so what you do in a
statistical analysis like this is you say, well, the smaller particles,

(07:18):
there's many, many more of them, and as you get
to larger and larger particles, there's fewer and fewer of them.
So the number of big craters on the Moon, there's
few of them. And as you get that, we're created
by fairly large objects coming at fair fairly high velocity
to create that kind of a crater. And of course

(07:39):
we have craters on Earth that we know approximately the
size of object that hit, for example, the one near Winslow, Arizona,
and so then other craters around the planet. But back
to the Moon, So what would you expect given this
statistical average, this population curve of stuff that's falling in

(08:05):
on the lunar surface or impacting I guess would be
a better word. So anything small that comes in is
going to hit and be probably broken apart into finer dust.
But the underlying that would be a lot of rocks,
a lot of odd shaped objects that came in from

(08:28):
maybe a planet exploding, some other solar system or some
other galaxy. Who knows where this stuff comes from. But
also you have the gravitational field of the Moon attracting
this stuff as it's flying through outer space. And so
the surface, what should the surface of the Moon look like?

(08:48):
It should look a very very rough with maybe a
little bit of coating of powdery dust on top, but
certainly not something you could easily drive a vehicle over,
not something that would be easily traversed even by foot,

(09:08):
and certainly not a perfect quarter inch of dust on
a perfectly flat plane as we have seen in some photos.
So back to the Blue Ghost lander. I was very
disappointed at the photography because one of the primary things
that all of us would want to see is say,
what does the surface of the Moon look like? Not

(09:30):
a single I repeat, not a single photograph that's come
out of the Blue Ghost landing gives you any even
the remote view of what the lunar surface looks like,
and that to me is very, very disappointing. And this

(09:51):
is the kind of thing that I would think, for
pr from the point of view of the goo boo
of the Blue Ghost people. What's the name of the
company again, Firefly? I think it's Firefly is the name
of the company, and Blue Ghost is the name of
the lander. But once again, an extremely noble effort, a

(10:16):
great result landing on the Moon. That means there will
be many more to come. People will be investing, there
will be reasons to invest, there will be optimism for
financial investment in the in the lunar exploration. But if
you wanted pr I would think that you'd want a

(10:39):
photograph of the lunar surface, and we have none. We
have not a single photograph that shows us what the
lunar surface looks like where they landed. Now they have
a package. I believe there's like ten experiments on that
lander from NASA. So clearly NASA is partnering with these

(10:59):
people people to land on the Moon and do some
scientific research. Okay, let me quick talk about Mars and
I'll pull up some photographs here by the way. My
book The Principia medior Lohia The Physics of Sun Earth
Weather is one of my books. It's a book I'm

(11:20):
very proud of. This was published in probably two thousand
and I'll just say roughly two thousand and four, two
thousand and five. It was originally a six hundred page
book and I had to trim it down to three
hundred pages to make it manageable. And it goes through
the entire Solar System and talks about the weather of
the Solar System and of all the planets, and in

(11:43):
the middle are I think it's eight plates of high
resolution of the entire surface of Mars, and so I
hopefully I'll be able to pull up some of these
plates and show them to you. But the surface of
Mars is very definitely the result of water erosion, and
a good deal of water on Mars, for example, around

(12:06):
the base of Olympus Mons, you see the kind of
it's called slewing is the geological term. What happens, And
let's take a good example of that, are the Pacific islands,
especially the Hawaiian Islands, are eroded on the windward side.
In other words, what happens is the waves come crashing

(12:27):
in the erodes the volcanic islands. And the other thing
about volcanism in the formation of islands is it's layered. Now,
when you have a shield volcano, as you have with
Olympus Mons, the biggest volcano in the Solar System on Mars,
what happens is you have it's different than a cinder cone.

(12:51):
A cinder cone is explosive, you get a lot of
cinders and it makes this cone shape. But Olympus Mons
is a shield volcano. It's a separate category of volcanoes
made from layers and layers and layers from event after
event after event of volcanic flow. And so this is

(13:12):
a slow flow of lava down the mountain side. And
what happens when it rains the lava, the layering of
the water gets down in between these layers and it
makes it slick. The water stays in there, and there's
tremendous weight on these layers. So what happens is if

(13:34):
there's an earthquake, the slight jiggle or something, this entire
layer of lava goes sliding off like a giant toboggan
off into the ocean. And then there's two effects. There's
the erosion of the coastline itself, which gives you these
cliff formations, and then you have the slewing where these

(13:56):
because there's nothing to hold it. You have to madge
on a hill. Let's just imagine if you cut away
the side of the hill, then there's nothing to hold
this land up here. And if it's in layers like
in a volcano, this tremendous amount of weight. And then
the fact that you have water in between layers causing
it to be like slimy mud in a very good

(14:18):
viscous surface. And so if there's a little shake boosh,
that whole thing comes sliding down and creates it's in
geological terms, it's called slewing, and it slews off into
the ocean. Well, you see this on Olympus Mons, which
tells you that during the history recent history of Mars,

(14:39):
not ancient history, not billions of years ago, but within
one hundred thousand years, Mars had vast oceans and a
weather system just like Earth. And that's what the ancients
tell us. The ancients talk about Mars being the blue planet.
It's a twin planet to Earth. And the best resource

(15:00):
for this is Emmanuel Belikowski in the research he did
where he was studying ancient texts. So now let's jump
back to the Moon for a second. The Moon does
not have this as with the planet Mercury. Mercury is
very much like our Moon. There's no atmosphere. It's just

(15:20):
full of pock marks of cratering due to impacts, et cetera.
But back to our Moon, the Moon's surface is completely
covered with debris that fell in from outside, and therefore
the surface has really nothing to do with the lunar history.

(15:41):
So you can pick up all the lunar rocks you want.
You can send your lander up there to drill in
the sea to look for anything you want. But the
end result is it has nothing to do with the
Moon at all. And so people have paid vast amounts
of money for moon rocks. Well I got news for you,

(16:01):
boys and girls. They're not moon rocks. They're rocks that
were on the moon possibly, but they have nothing to
do with the Moon. And so if you can date them,
so I find some radioactive method of dating or some
isotope dating technique or something like that, you're not measuring

(16:23):
anything about the Moon, and then you cannot infer anything
about Earth. The same thing with Earth. The Earth has
been layering up over millions, billions of years in the surface.
We see now what is on the surface of the
Earth has absolutely nothing to do with historically what was
originally planet Earth. Okay, so once again my final analysis

(16:49):
of the blue Ghost landing on the Moon is where
are the photos? It's like, back in there was this
commercial when I was younger, and uh, this little old
lady comes up and it's it's a it's about uh
one of the Hamburger chains and she goes, where's the beef?

(17:10):
And that's my comment also is where are the photos?
The Number one pr thing that you could do is
not show a picture of Earth, because with the cameras
they had, they show this little kind of dot up
in the sky and they say, oh, that's planet Earth. Okay, well,
that's really good, we've seen those before. What people really
want to see is the surface of the moon. Where

(17:32):
are the photographs the you know firefly company, you know,
where are the photographs of the moon. Let's compare those
photographs with what other photographs we have seen of the
moon from other sources. Okay, Now, a number of weeks
ago I started the lecture. It was regarding what is
known as the bets limit, something that's totally incorrectly used

(17:57):
universally in the wind energy in industry to determine the
amount of energy that can be extracted from the wind
by three blade wind turbines. And I talked extensively about that,
and so that is going to be the basis for
further discussion. And last week I talked about aerodynamics and

(18:18):
birds wings, comparing birds wings to wings of airplanes, Man's wings,
God's wings versus man's wings. And it's very clear that
bird wings are far superior in many many respects. The
wings of man the airplane wings have a lot of
deficiencies when you compare them apples to apples, you know,

(18:42):
the cross section of the wing, the ability to stop
the air from flowing down the wings and ruining the airfoil, etc. Etc.
And so even though man has made feeble attempts to
cure the problems with their artificial wings, they're nothing compared
to the wings designed by our great creator and for

(19:07):
the wings of birds, which are just very very beautifully
designed for what they have to do. Now, this week,
I was going to talk about all the different types
of bird wings, but I decided that it would be
getting a little bit off into never land for the
majority of listeners, a little bit too much detail, a

(19:30):
little bit too much information to keep interest levels, And
so I'm going to do a very quick summary of that.
But the reason I'm talking about the first I talked
about the BET's limit and the incorrect use. I talked
about the Bernoilly principle and the misuse. Last week. I
hope you if you didn't see those shows, go back
and listen to them or watch them. And so this

(19:55):
week I want to culminate all of these discussions and
show you what led up to the disa sign of
the patented GMCC wing generator. And now this is important
because right now in the in the world, all of
the leaders of the world, and especially right now in
the United States, there's a lot of upheople. Whether you

(20:17):
like it or not, or whether you think it's good
or bad, is irrelevant. It's happening, So put on your
seat belt. But one of the big areas of change
is in the area of energy. And so anyway, what
I want to get at here is the understanding that
I had, this is twenty five years ago now literally

(20:40):
in understanding that the energy industry, the alternative energy industry,
what you generally think of as three blade wind turbines
and solar panels, none of these things are going to work.
And so shutting those down is a very good thing
to do, because the only reason those technologies are in existence,

(21:03):
other than maybe putting someone houses, that's always a benefit.
But when in terms of large scale implementation, in large
scale implementation for solving the world energy problem, neither one
of those will work. And so what I want to
do is show you the thought patterns that I went

(21:24):
through to design what is known as the wing generator. Okay,
so first of all, excuse me, I hope I'm not
going to lose my voice here for the end of
the show. I want to use a lot of times
I use analogies. Excuse me to get a point across.

(21:47):
And I worked in the telecommunications industry for about twenty
five years as a principal engineer. I worked in the
design of hardware. I also oversaw software development. I was
not a programmer. I was a physicist working for large

(22:09):
companies like AT and T, et cetera. In fact, both
of I worked in two different positions two different companies,
both of them owned by AT and T. But this
is back in the nineteen eighties, there was a thing
called a twisted pair, now a pair. There were four

(22:33):
wires and it's basically your telephone wire on the old
telephone wires that came into your house. And it was
called a twisted pair. And that's when you had the
dial up telephone where you would pick up the handset
and punch the buttons. Older versions you would add a
actually dial on the phone where you would dial a
number and dial the next number, et cetera. A lot

(22:54):
of people today wouldn't even know what it is. But
that's where the term dial your phone comes from. It's
one of those historic developments. And so when you say
dial a phone, it's referring back to the days when
actually was a dial on a telephone. Okay, but anyway,
back to the point of this discussion. In those days

(23:19):
and so I worked in telecommunications, and it was the
dawn of the digital age, telecommunications using digital signaling. And
so it was then that we developed the protocols, the
HDLs protocols that are used today universally, the acknowledgments, the

(23:47):
checking of data using acknowledgments and correction codes, et cetera.
And in fact, encryption. It was one of my specialties
was in encryption, the data safe, how to send it
without somebody eavesdropping and picking up your data. Okay, so
at any rate, there were mathematical models for the limit,

(24:12):
the upper limit of how much data you could send
on a twisted pair. These were four little teeny weeny
copper wires that would come into the house from the
telephone company and go to your handset. And there was
a little cable looked like an Ethernet cable that people
used today. It's a little wider, but it only had

(24:33):
four telephone leeds in there. It was called a twisted pair,
and these were twisted and so anyway, the calculation the
theoretical limit of putting data on these twisted pair wires
going and coming was nine dot six nine six hundred
bits per second, or nine dot six as we called

(24:56):
it in the day, And so going back and forth
you could double that, and so it was in nineteen
dot two nine dot six times two is nineteen do two,
and so that was those are kilobits per second. Of course,
now everything is in megabits per second, and transmission and
data storage is in gigabits. But anyway, back to the

(25:19):
transmission rates, the calculated the theoretical limit based on and
this was based on mathematicians at Harvard University was nineteen
dot two kilobits per second. And we believe this and
we all just we nobody nobody questioned it, including myself.

(25:43):
As a young engineer, I worked with teams. We built
complete entire networks IBM compatible. This was back in the
legacy days of IBM mainframes and going out to a
like an IBM dumb terminal. These were called dumb turnals.
I think it was two seventy was one of the

(26:07):
numbers of the early terminals, and eventually these terminals, whereas
they had a keyboard and a screen basically that's what
we called a terminal, would have a keyboard and when
somebody would type a key, hit a key, that would
send a signal up to the mainframe. The main frame
would then send a signal to the television screen, to
the monitor and put it up there. And eventually these

(26:30):
terminals got smarter and smarter, and so when you hit
the key, the processor itself would put the letter up
on the screen. And of course now that would be ridiculous,
but actually we're getting back to this centralized processing, with
centralized cloud processing and memory in which, for example, on

(26:52):
your new phone, you don't have that much memory, you
don't have that much processing part because a lot of
this is done out of your phone or out of
your computer or laptop. Okay, so the nineteen dot two
kill abit per second reigned supreme until one day some
inquisitive young engineers, I don't know if they were young,

(27:15):
I don't really know who came up with the frequency
division multiplexing on this twisted pair. And what they realized
that is, if you cut the frequency of bandwidth that
you could transmit on this set of cables, these twisted
pair wires in put filters frequency division filters in there.

(27:38):
You could divide this, You could frequency divide the twisted
pair line into twenty four channels each channel. Now remember
the old limit on a single channel on that wire
was nineteen dot two. But they were now able to
put sixty four kilobits on a division and twenty four
of these and that added up to a t what

(28:00):
was known in the day as a T one of
one point five four to four megabits per second. So
all of a sudden, you go from nineteen two kill
abits per second to one point five four to four
mega bits per second. And part of that bandwidth was
taken in terms of transmission protocol, but there was hardware protocols,

(28:24):
and then on top of that you had software protocols
that did the telecommunications, ran the telecommunication protocols, and if
you had encryption, that ran on top of that. So
this was a layered architecture, as it was called in
the day. But the point being that the theoretical model
for the capacity of this twisted pair wire was completely wrong,

(28:48):
and everybody believed it because nobody questioned it. The same
thing is true in the wind industry. Now when the
wind industry puts the three blade winter out there and
they go, oh, due to the BET's limit, this is
how much energy you can derive from a column of wind.
It's completely false. And because the BET's limit is a

(29:12):
kinetic energy transfer of a non compressible fluid like a
hydro dam. No. I explained this a number of weeks ago.
So that's just summarizing what I already explained. But the
end result is that you can extract far more energy
out of the wind using aerodynamics. And so the reason
I went through the first of all, the discussion of

(29:34):
the BET's limit was to show you that it was incorrect.
I then talked about the Bernouilli principle that it does
not explain the lift on a wing, and then I
talked about bird wings, airplane wings, and then sails, and
as was last week. And now what I'm going to
do is culminate all of this and show you that
the rationale for the it's a form of multiplexing the

(30:00):
JMCC wing generator. And what happens here, Now, what happens
when just one more point here, when you're going back
to the old propeller days or the three blade wind turbines.
When these spin, what happens the wind comes across the
airfoil and because of centrifugal force, the wind slides down

(30:23):
the propeller or the blade and you lose lift. And
so one of the ways of containing this, if you
have a properly designed system, is to put a blockage
so that The last week, I talked about jet airplane
wings where they put the little flip up at the
end of the wing to prevent them to prevent the

(30:45):
air from flowing down the wing, and also how birds
naturally do this where they have the end of their wings,
especially soaring birds and even little birds. I think I
showed a picture of a blue jay that had the
same feather construction at the end of the wings where
at the end of the wings they flip up. They
were like, they flip up, and what happens when the

(31:08):
air's passing through It makes the air go up and back,
and it prevents the air from coming up over the
wing and ruining the airfoil. The vacuum that's developed on
the top of the wing. I also talked about how
the right brothers with their very first flights, they took
a plane out. They thought they had plenty of airfoil,

(31:32):
plenty of lift capacity on their wing system, and they
couldn't get it to fly. It just wouldn't take off.
They couldn't get enough winds. So like, okay, back to
the drawing board. So they go back to there. But
they were bike These guys were building bicycles, and so
they understood chains and drives, and so when they hooked
the motor on their airplane to drive the propellers, they

(31:55):
were using chain drive, just like with their bicycle shop.
But anyway, they go back to their bikeycle shop and
they created the first wind tunnel. And they took a
model of their airplane and they put it in their
little wind tunnel with smoke trailing, and they realized what
was happening is that the air would slide down the
wing and come up over the end of the wing,

(32:16):
and then slide back in and ruin the vacuum on
the top of the wing. And so then they made
the wings longer, they made them longer and narrower, and
then reduced that effect. So they learned that a longer, narrow,
narrower wing was better. It worked better even though you
didn't have any more surface area and you didn't have

(32:38):
any more lift capability. Technically you eliminated that problem. And
then if you look at a sewing bird, you see
that their wings have the other way birds deal with this,
like foreign albatross wing for example, it's pointed at the
tip and so when the air slides down the wing,
it just flows off, but there's no way for it

(33:01):
to come back up and come back down the top
side of the wing to ruin the vacuum. And so anyway,
there's nature's design and then there's man's design. But back
to the right brothers, they take their newly designed wing
out with a nice gentle breeze coming in at kittihawk,
they were able to fly, and so they understood the

(33:23):
principle of this principle. Now there's another way they could
have done it. In fact, they could have put a
box out at the end of the wing and prevented
that same issue from happening, but they didn't. They chose
to just make the wings longer and minimize that effect. Okay,

(33:43):
so with the wing generator, what you have are literally
wings that are very similar to bird wings. In a
cage and rotating so that the lift, the aodynamic lift,
is in the rotary direction. And then it's surrounded by
a shroud which prevents the wind from coming off the

(34:05):
tips of the sales of the wings and contains it.
Now that does a number of things. As this thing
spins faster and faster, and the centrifugal force becomes greater
and greater on the air column and the air tries
to slide out because of centrifical force, you get a

(34:25):
greatly increased force on the underside of the sail and
so and then also you get because of the increased
airflow in the air speed there you get a much
bigger vacuum on the top side of the saale and
it's contained by the drum that surrounds the wing generator. So,

(34:46):
if you look at any of the past designs of
wind systems that throughout history, all of these principles were
not understood. And so being a physicist, being a person
that as I've designed electronic I've designed mechanical systems, I've
designed sailboats. One of the things when I was young,

(35:07):
I lived in a place where there were a lot
of sailboats, and I owned a couple of sailboats myself
and was very interested in sailboat designed. So I designed
a sailboat, an ocean going sailboat. And then but I
changed it. I took what was known as a Tahiti catch.

(35:28):
It's thirty foot very heavy duty work boat, gaff rigged sailboat.
And I didn't have enough time and ability to build
a full scale to eat a catch with the two
masts and a catch rig, and so I made it
smaller into a gaff rigged sloop. And and so by

(35:52):
making it smaller, I had to make the beam wider
to handle the sail. Because the volume of the hull
goes as the cube of the linear dimension, and so
if you make it smaller, you have to make it wider.
And that's why these big ships that you can find,
the big schooners, the big clipper ships that were used
for transportation before the age of steam, they could have

(36:16):
this massive amount of sail on them because the volume
of the hull and the ballast goes as the cube
of the lineal dimension, and the sails only go as
the square of the lineal dimension. So you can put
this massive amount of sail on a clipper ship, and
so I use these same principles when I designed the

(36:37):
wing generator, and understanding that as you make it bigger,
you get much more lift out of the And also
because theft the radial dimension is growing, and the centrifugal
force and on the wind that is sliding up the wing,

(36:59):
all of these come into place. So as you make
something bigger in terms of the wing generator, it.

Speaker 1 (37:08):
Works.

Speaker 2 (37:09):
It goes as the cube of the lineal dimension. And
so anyway, I just want to tell you why I've
been going through this three show long oration of the
properties of wind energy and the misuse of scientific principles

(37:31):
in the wind energy industry, in in aerodynamics in general,
because people simply don't understand them. And I talked about
the professor syndrome or the professors or the people working,
especially older men. Women may appreciate this that men, once
they get something in their brain, don't try and change it,

(37:53):
because you know, the change comes difficult for older people.
And that's something that I've in fact, in spite of
the fact that I'm a little bit elderly, I still
keep an open mind to a lot of things because
that allows you to make discoveries. If you lock your
brains in on something, and this happens, unfortunately with too

(38:15):
many PhDs. Is the last thought they had, the last
real thought, the last innovative thought they may have had,
happened before they got the PhD. And after that they
entered the realm of academia or industry, and from there
on they're starting at the very bottom step of the ladder.

(38:36):
Even though they got a PhD. They start at the
bottom of the ladder, and they are regimented in whatever
they're doing. Whether they're working on military contracts or in
the wind industry or electronics or whatever it is, automobile industry,
doesn't matter. People are regimented, and that's unfortunate because science

(38:58):
advancement requires someone to be completely out of that mode
of thinking. Okay, so, just to summarize, the wing generator
has all of these factors, this understanding mixed in and
allows it to extract energy from the wind. And the
future of all of this is in terms of generating hydrogen,

(39:22):
because hydrogen can be used as a battery, So with
the wing generator you don't need batteries, whereas with three
blade wind turbines that are variable and with especially with solar,
you need batteries, and so that's one of the big expenses.
That's one of the things that prevents those from being

(39:43):
viable alternatives, to viable alternative energy sources. In my book,
the one I just showed recently just a little while ago,
the McKenny wing Generator, The World Energy I'm sorry, I
was showing the weather book earlier, what I call the

(40:06):
Principia Mediolohia The Physics of Sun Earth Weather. But another
one of my books is called McKenny Wing Generator, World
Energy Project, and in there is a chapter on the
myth of alternative energy. This is based on lectures I
was giving around the year two thousand, projecting that there

(40:28):
would be a big grand failure in the alternative energy
industry with three blade wind turbines and solar and that
has now come to pass. Okay, changing gears a little
bit here, and I don't really like spending that many
weeks on a particular topic, but this topic of the
wind energy and understanding it was really important. I'm going

(40:52):
to switch gears now and talk about the Great Flood. Now.
This is something that there has been so much misinformation
recently that it deserves a real good explanation and a
very clear explanation. When you read the description of the

(41:14):
Great flood, it was torrential rain. Now it was a
torrential rain, and they say lasted forty days and forty nights.
And I've explained this before about that number forty. Number
forty was used a lot in the Old Testament and
the New Testament, where they talk about forty days, forty nights,

(41:35):
something like that Christ went into the desert or the
Great flood. Forty was like their number million. It was
the number so big that the average mind could not comprehend.
So when you said forty was like, wow, that's really
a lot. So it doesn't mean literally forty. It just
means like if somebody like Carl Sagan was famous, they

(41:58):
actually made fun of him a little bit because he
would go billions and billions, you know, And that was
just a number that was so big that nobody could
imagine that number. And so that was the term forty.
The number forty back in those in ancient days was
just a number so big that you just couldn't count
that many. It was an uncountable number because most people

(42:22):
you know might have trouble counting up to ten the
number of fingers in the hands, or the number of
fingers and toes. They might get up to twenty, but
after that you know they're lost. So that was twice
as many as most people could count on their fingers
and toes. So anyway, that was an explanation of the
number forty. But it was forty days and forty nights

(42:44):
of torrential rain. It didn't come shooting up out of
the ground. It wasn't due to an ice dam that broke,
and was a very little localized event. And when you
see the historical record, this is one of the other
aspects of this that is very important. When you see
the historical historical record. The ancients talk about this from

(43:05):
all parts of the globe. It is discussed in the
history books, in the Annals of History and the annals
of Humankind, within recorded history, and that is the key. Now,
recorded history might go back four to five thousand years,
maybe six thousand years if we're lucky, so the traditions

(43:28):
handed down that were eventually written don't go back anymore
than that. So you have people running around jumping up
and down saying that the great flood happened twelve thousand
years ago, no, no, no, it was much much more
recent than that, and they were trying to attribute all
of these catastrophes to one period of time. If you

(43:51):
go back twelve thousand years, there is no written history
at all, and there would not have been any written
history for literally thousands of years, probably five to six
thousand years. I was one of the first people, long
time ago, decades ago, before any of these people ever surfaced,
talking about the ancient nature of man in its current form,

(44:16):
and that there's evidence for that. I was on the
ground myself it archaeological ruins, watching them dug up for
the first time and saying this didn't happen, you know,
in the last couple thousand years. This happened thousands and
thousands of years ago. And so the ancient cities were

(44:38):
clearly you know, a lot of civilizations probably came in
and overtook the cities. That would include the pyramids in Egypt,
these probably a lot of the pyramids in Mexico in
Central America. But back to the accounts of written history,
the fact that we have written history of the Noah's Flood,

(45:01):
what we call the Noah's Flood. It was a worldwide
flood and torrential range. Now if you look at the
arc that was built by Noah, and we have the dimensions,
we have the physical makeup of the arc. In fact,
I did a show one time on because I'm very
familiar with boat design and how boats were built. It's

(45:23):
a technique called building by eye. Where you build you
lay out the keel, you lay out the bow in
the stern, and then you put in the mid rib
section and then you fare the mid rib section into
give it a nice round shape coming into the bow.
And you do this with faring batons, little thin pieces

(45:46):
of wood and as, and then you start building in
the bow sections, the rib sections literally, and then you
start filling in in between those in constantly adding batons
to give you the shape. And now this is what
a naval architect does on paper, and now of course

(46:06):
is done by computer, but a naval architect would take
literally battens of wood and lay them on a drawing
table and put them and give the view from up
above and the side view and the tail view and
the fore view. And I've done this myself, so I

(46:27):
know the process. And then you add the sail rig
or the motors, the propulsion system. But Of course, Noah's
Arc had no propulsion, it did not have sales, but
it had a big roof and it was capable of
withstanding basically rain. That was you look at the design
of Noah's Arc and it was designed to withstand tremendous rain.

(46:55):
And so these stories about, oh, it was a flood,
there was this ice dam that broke and flooded the
Mediterranean Ocean. How absolutely ridiculous do you think Noah would
build a boat to if that's what the great flood was?
How did he know that what that was going to happen?
First of all, and second of all, if that's all
it was, he'd take his family up to the top

(47:15):
of the next hill and wouldn't have to build an
arc atoll. Or the idea that there were these ice
dams at various places around Earth that then washed out
certain regions, that there were big washes which you see
around all around the world. Also, that doesn't explain it,
because how come that happened at the same time as

(47:36):
this other wash over here. No, it doesn't explain anything.
It was a worldwide torrential rain. Well, how could it rain?
There's not enough rain in the clouds to account for
that the cause of the Noah's Flood was Earth passing
through the tail of a large comet, something very predictable

(47:58):
many years in advance, and so clearly someone got the
word to know and says, hey, this big comet is coming.
Earth is going to pass through the tail. There's going
to be a massive flood, and you're going to be
in it, and you had to save the animals and
your family, and you're going to be one of the
few people that survives this and starts generating new population.

(48:21):
And of course the Chinese were astronomers, they could have
known about this. But the Chinese have mountains, you have India,
the Northern the Pakistan and the Hindu Kush where people
could survive a tremendous flood for a long period of time,
especially if they had forewarning. And so you have to

(48:42):
understand too that the previous civilizations were very advanced in
their knowledge. It's very true that before Noah's Flood there
may have been an Earth population similar to what we
have today seven eight billion people, and the flood killed
them all, almost all of them, was a mass extinction.

(49:06):
And we have the Biblical that's what the Old Testament is.
It's a biblical record. It's a genealogy of the people
who came down from Noah and down through you know,
that's what it is. It's a genealogy. And the genealogy
isn't long enough to beat twelve thousand years. So there's many,
many reasons why we understand that the Noah's flood happened.

(49:29):
I would put it at the outside six thousand years ago.
That was the outside, and it could have been more
like four thousand years ago. We really don't know, and
I don't put dates on things, but I can tell
you dates that are not correct. And for sure, a
date of eleven twelve thousand years ago is completely bogus

(49:49):
off the wall, and it completely ignores the real data.
The Noah's event was within human history, or did human history,
and so that puts it at a limit of five to
six thousand years ago. It was a recorded event, a
torrential rain. It wasn't water shooting up out of the

(50:12):
ground or an ice dam breaking or any of these
looney tune ideas that are floating around today. It was
torrential rain. And you see the earmarks of this all
over the world. When Ignatius Donnelly wrote his famous book
Atlantis and the Antidiluvian World. When the naturalists first came

(50:34):
to the North American continent started working their way west.
Ignatius Donnelly was a lieutenant governor of Minnesota in the
nineteen I'm sorry about eighteen sixty period, about the Civil
War period of the Civil War, and they recognized that
there was all of this disaster left over from the

(50:55):
Great Flood, and they were in the situation was however,
by the year nineteen hundred, because of the Industrial Revolution
and because the number of people moving into the Western
plains through the United States, most of the most of
the ear marks of the Great Flood had been destroyed

(51:18):
by man, and so people started saying, oh, then there
was no such thing as a great flood, and that's
where they are today with the uniformitarianism. But the person
who there are many people of ignations, Donnelly was one
of the people that pointed this out, that there had
been a great flood and the ear markings of this

(51:39):
great flood were everywhere to be seen. And of course
this was not just the United States, was worldwide. So
the Great Flood was a torrential rain that lasted for
weeks and weeks and weeks day and night. And this
is the kind of torrential rain that for example, I've
been in the tropics, and so hard that you cannot

(52:01):
even breathe. It's very difficult to breathe. You have to
get under something to break the water is so that
you can literally breathe. That's how hard it's training. But
and it causes flooding day and night. Sometimes it rains
so hard that you know, there's flooding and the rivers

(52:22):
overflow their banks, and there's roads that are washed away,
and it's a real disaster, and the people come back.
It only lasts so long, so people come back and rebuild.
But the nose flood, the water levels rose hundreds of feet.
This is the ocean levels. And this is not the

(52:43):
only great catastrophe that happened within recorded history. Another one
is well documented by a guy named Emmanuel Belikowski. Where
this is I call it the Venus event or the
Moses event. These pople voo talks about it, the Venus event,
ketzel quaddal event. You could name it any of these,
but Bevelikovski was the premier researcher relative to this, and

(53:07):
in that event, the venus the comet, we were much closer,
and we had tidal waves that actually created mountains. Mountains
were built. We had tidal waves, but it happened much quicker,
and so we didn't have that long period of influx
of water. There were hydrocarbons, and there are indications that,

(53:33):
for example, all of the plagues in the Egypt during
the Moses event were caused by the approach of the comet,
the electricity into the ground, and the cause the causal
event of all the vermin coming out of the ground.
When we were kids, if we wanted to go fishing,
we would take a battery out of the car and

(53:54):
we'd take it, take two wires, one from each lead
of the battery, and we'd put these wires down to
the ground, and within a short period of time, all
the worms would come crawling out. Worms and bugs, everything
that was in the ground there would come crawling out,
and we'd pick them up and put them in our
dirt can, a can with dirt in it, and we'd
go fishing. Because we had all the worms, we didn't

(54:15):
have to dig for worms. That's how we found our worms.
And so the same thing when the comet came by
and the electrical discharges from the comet caused all the
vermin to come up out of the grounds. And so
that's why you see the plagues in Egypt, you see
the red hand of death. I've gone through very serious,

(54:37):
long lectures on all of these different effects. And by
the way, the Tunguska event, I want to make very
clear also I worked with the Russian scientists who were
on site at Tunguska. These were the atmospheric scientists that
I worked with in the mid nineteen nineties. They were
the scientists that went out and explored on boots on

(55:01):
the ground at Tanguska. And it was not due to
some kind of bow light or object coming in and exploding.
That explanation is totally bogus. What happened was an electrical discharge,
and that's why they liked my work because it explained
where these electrical discharges come from. But there's, like I say,

(55:22):
there's a lot of I would call yo yo's running
around jumping up and down on the Internet saying that
there was some kind of bow light came in and
exploded above Tanguska. And that's clearly not the case because
there's no residual. There's no residue from whether it was water,
whether it was bow light and rock or whatever, there's

(55:44):
no residual. And what is there is the recording of
an electrical discharge. But where did that come from? It
was a small passing comet that came by Tunguska on
that night in what was at nineteen oh five, very
similar type of event, and the explosion I've talked about

(56:04):
that before very likely was a the lightning bolt kicking
off a nuclear explosion just above. And the explosion was
very low to the ground because right off of the
ground zero center point, the trees are flattened outwards, which

(56:25):
indicates that the explosion was very close to the ground,
not miles up into the sky. So and then also
scorched the electrical discharge. It created a tremendous fire which
as the explosion went out, burned all the trees. It
just burned. All of the trunks are still there, and

(56:47):
that indicates also that it was not a normal fire.
It was an explosive event which just blew all of
the leaves off, the the needles off the pine trees,
et cetera. So back to Noah's flood, Noah's Flood was
forty days and forty nights approximately of torrential rain. The

(57:09):
ocean levels rose, and Noah's Arc was built with anticipation
of Earth passing through that comet tale. Now, to give
you an example, the comet Hillbop was a medium size comet.
It was not a big one. It was a mediums
It was big compared to modern standards, but compared to

(57:29):
the ancients when they talked about the big comets, we're
talking huge comets with nuclei much bigger than planet Earth.
But if Earth had passed through the tale of Comet Hillbop,
it would have taken about forty days and forty nights,
about a month. And so that's a perfect example of
exactly what I am talking about. So in review, the

(57:54):
Noah's Flood was anticipated because of the comet orbit that
was identifiable. The ancients were very good at calculating orbits,
some of them. There were other people like today. There's
a lot of people today that are completely ignorant with

(58:14):
no ability to calculate cometary orbits. You see misinformation all
the time on the Internet about oh, Comet's going to
come in, or Planet Axe or all this misinformation about
things colliding with Earth, and the reality is that space
is a very big area around our Solar system and

(58:36):
Earth is just really a speck of dust moving very rapidly,
and so these events are very rare, but they do occur.
So once again, the Norse Flood was torrential rain worldwide
from Earth passing through the tail of a large comet.
The Earth's ocean levels rose considerably and it was not

(59:01):
close enough to cause electrical discharges or gravitational effects like
happened in the Venus event. So anyway, I hope that
clarifies that, And just remembered visit the web page you
see it up here above my head, and a lot
of good information there, a lot of lectures and a

(59:22):
lot of free information, so be sure to go there,
