Like his presentation in the first video.
Didn't realize Telsa's theories were so advanced.

Love Tesla. Love anti gravity research. Tricky to get into though as most of its highly secret research. I've a feeling there's an awful lot been done though and you usually find what we know about is around 50 years less advanced than what's really happening. Ben Rich(ex Skunkworks) is interesting as is the book The Hunt for Zero G.
Fascinating subject.

Thomas Townsend Brown Is an interesting guy to research. I've always thought it a shame that Brown and Tesla never met, because if they had done so I am certain they would have achieved incredible things.

That's a fair comment Jerry, however anti-gravity research is no conspiracy theory. Dare to look down the rabbit hole and do a wee bit of research into Mr Townsend-Brown, I promise you there won't be a Mad Hatter in sight 😉

Hmmm...most conspiracy theories are crap eh...OK I'll just listen to the undisputed truth we are all told by governments then.

@ Dave. Yup, interesting after a quick peruse. I shall look more later. Don't get me wrong, I'm not one of those die-hard "we know it all already" types who reject anything new and 'left field'. Just look at the recently apparently confirmed "EM reactionless drive". www.digitaltrends.com/cool-tech/emdrive-news-rumors/It's like something out of wishful-thinking science fiction, but it really seems to work. But the underlying science is a mystery and seems to require new science and the demolition of the old. Star Trek's Impulse Drive here we come. (Sorry, it's not a warp drive ) But an anti-gravity device that's been around for 80 years? .... just cite one plausible reason why the infinitely competitive military or space travel types haven't taken it up if it is real.

Indeed. We'd have colonised the entire Solar System at least by now if such a thing existed.

(Sorry, it's not a warp drive ) The EM drive is pretty amazing and as for warp drive, a NASA technology think tank is currently working on a theory which, they say, has legs. The oil industry and the economic structure it is based on. It will not do to give the great unwashed access to free energy until they have figured out a way to monetize it.

Monetise it?
How about unlimited access to all the resources of the entire Solar System?

Ah - standard conspiracy theory fare, then. I'm not saying you're not right, though! Apparently there is a cheap and easy cure for Alzheimers disease which is being suppressed by Big Pharma because there are $billions to be made from discovering an expensive cure. Lots of stuff like that around - probably a bit of truth in there, but a lot of falsehood as well - it's all too easy to get caught up in other people's paranoia.

That EM drive story is quite funny - rejected by NASA As being "too far out" but taken up by the wee willy winkies and brought to fruition....OOPS! Someone made a boo boo there!
As for the free energy point,raised in the comments above,well,that's what scuppered Tesla as well. Allegedly. Well,G. Westinghouse more to the point.

They don't want you to have.
Either that, or I've got the wrong number.

I don't know about conspiracy theories but I do know there's something weird going on when Dave is around. Last year in June, Dave hadn't been on the forum for months. I was away in America on holiday the day he posted again after a long break. Then, that very morning, I started seeing strange things.... See here

Teleportation has just been achieved, but it's not quite at a "Star Trek level" yet. BBC Science link
