    He's just proving a point. xP

    That Nano stuff sounds really impressive!!
    And I dont care how they did that Invisablility Cloak... If you'd read what can be found on Google about it, you'd see they've invented something called "Retro-Reflectum", its not just projectors. How would they do that video outside, with a big projector following him???... The projector would have to be able to project an image that bends around him and doesn't shine on anything else in that room (or his tie). And it would have to be places right where the camera man is in the outside shot...
    Those vids are pretty amazing!

    Here's one artical found with google:

    Yea... and wouldn't there have to be camera's behing him too? like maybe more than one? In order to make the image match up perfectly with how someone in front of him see's it, it would need to be a good camera angle, or multiple angles... ^_^\ How ever they did it, its pretty amazing!!

    Anyway, about Angel Light... Has anyone else heard/found other articles we haven't?

    chaos: All I've found are sites showcasing the link to the report, while including their own speculation.

    Rubedo: I find it hard to believe, although, I do wish this is true.

    I just had a dream about a car that runs on water! Only thing is, I don't know anything about car parts or engines. I don't know much about water either. Don't worry though. Because I had a dream about it, I built it from memory. It works, I just have no idea how.

    Yes it is.

    As much as I may be critical of the space program, I'll trust NASA to know what they're talking about.

    I dont know much about that stuff... but isn't that spectum just used to explain like as compared with other forms of waves? I though that there was a big contravercy over weather light was a wave or a photon(or some other word I dont remember) xD

    anyway ^_^;

    I think, I've heard of a car that runs on water... well not runs on exactly... it produces water.
    The car combines H and O to make H2O. somehow that gives off electricity and powers the car.

    EDIT: And Cidarooney, a car that runs on water is theoretically possible. They've been trying to use deuterium (hard water, IIRC) as a fuel for about sixteen thousand years. Just nobody's perfected it yet.

    The entire known time of human civilisation versus the rest of Cid's life. Why am I feeling less than optimistic?
    There is no signature here. Move along.

    All elecromagnetic radiation is essentially photons. The way I understand it, photons are weird in that they behave simultaneously like a particle AND a wave. Thus, photons can exist at different wavelengths. The wavelength of visible light lies between about 400nm and 700nm. EMR of longer wavelengths (low frequence) includes infrared light, microwaves and radio waves. Short wavelength (high frequence) radiation includes UV light, x-rays and gamma radiation.

    Hydrogen powered cars are nothing very special. They use one of the simplest and most basic chemical equations on the book: burning hydrogen. 1/2 O2 + H2 --> H20. They, themselves, are cleaner than petroleum based cars. But energy is needed to produce hydrogen, and you need power plants for that, which is likely to cause pollution.

    A car that ran on water, instead of producing it, would be another kettle of fish.

    Deuterium is heavy hydrogen, with one proton and one neutron in the nucleus - as opposed to normal hydrogen which has only a proton. Heavy water is water with deuterium instead of normal hydrogen. Incidentally, you can also get tritium which is hydrogen with one proton and two neutrons.

    And initially I thought you were referring to this.

    In case you hadn't noticed, my post was about the unlikelyhood of <B>me</b> creating and building a water powered car while having no science skills whatsoever.

    In case you also hadn't noticed, this was a little reference to my opinion of how unlikely I think it is that this guy built this contraption despite having no knowledge of how or why it works.

    Furthermore, I don't doubt that someone somewhere has the brains to build a car that can run on water. I can't do it. Even if I had a dream about it.

    I know that. I guess being a scientist (well, aspiring scientist) myself, I just have a bit of difficulty comprehending some people's inability to distinguish the Plausible, the Implausible and the Just Plain Stupid.

    Or maybe a phaser fight...

    Well, I found a little more info on Hurtubise^_^;
    http://americanantigravity.com/hurtubise.shtml

    On this site, they have some more info on him... AND they even have a 30 minute interview with him, where he mentions Angel Light.

    If you can spare the time, its interesting to listen too. He says quite a few things about Angel Light that I haven't heard yet. I highly recommend listening to it.

    Here is the direct link to the sound file.
    http://www.intalek.com/AV/Troy-Hurtubise.wma

    "You did it, you bugger, you fused the light. Whats it look like when it comes out of there?"
    "Its actually unique, it looks solid, dense, heavy."

    "I have no idea what I did" XD Awesome!

    Hmmm..... What about death rays now? :evilking:

    Thanks to Sagensyg for the sig!

    oWo, ^_^/ Fantastic find!
    I've listened to the whole thing, and I'm sure he's made it now! =3
    This guy is an amazing inventor!

    "Its a national defence issue, thats why everyone has called for Angel Light."

    He talks about "backyard inventors" and why people dont beleive them.

    "Fused Light" o_O?

    I'm amazed he's running it off of a normal 120 Volts from his house!

    Why is it good for plants, but bad for animals? x3
