"You finally say something interesting and then ruin it by mentioning conspiracy and Rossi in the same paragraph."

Do you begin to realize how stupid that statement is. You seem to think that the word "Rossi" possesses some magical power to discredit any and all other items among which it might occur.

"So what's the source for this latest experiment? It's too bad you can't use your award winning talent to summarize it here."

Still suffering from reading comprehension problems, I see. Note the phrase "NASA Glenn Research Center" in my post. I would think that pretty much anybody could do a search with terms "cold fusion" and "NASA Glenn Research Center".

But since you are either incapable or terminally lazy, here is the url:

Note that I have already provided the link above in the CF thread I posted just before this one.

Once again, you choose to insult rather than make the case for cold fusion in your own words. What does that tell us about your confidence?

Looking at the referenced presentation, here's what I see. A palladium-silver hydrogen purifier is heated to about 360C (page 12). There is no temperature anomaly when hydrogen or deuterium is pumped into the purifier. There is a brief and small 15C temperature differential spike when deuterium is pumped out of the purifier compared to when hydrogen is pumped out of the purifier (page 13). No neutron or gamma radiation was detected for either hydrogen or deuterium. No control experiments were run.

How could this tiny and brief temperature increase possibly be used to power a spacecraft or anything else? (It's not continuous, but only when deuterium is first pumped out.) I guarantee this experiment wasn't suppressed by a conspiracy. The hot fusion guys were probably laughing too hard to care.
