Everyday I read the news here and think maybe I should start working on a Heim drive....
It would be nice to couple to LENR generator and an anti-gravity drive to get us off this liberal infested rock.
I hear he works with I.P. Freely
Does this mean they are closer to a working theory?
It is well worth the time to go to the link and read this in the PDF format.
Does any college teach LENR as a class, as part of a class or at all?
Right now there’s at least 16 theories, not including my own V1DLLBEC theory.

***MIT. Once a year for the last 3 years under Dr. Hagelstein. He did it at the beginning of this month.

I was interested in the 28MeV figure. The claim is that this amount of energy is released in the conversion of 2 deuterium atoms into one helium atom.
Let’s scale this up to common quantities. Let’s take a “mole” of deuterium molecules, D2. A mole, as you may recall from high school, is 6.022 x 10**23 molecules, which for deuterium weighs about 4 grams. If you multiply 28MeV times this number (i.e., you convert an entire mole of D2 into helium), you get an enormous number of MeV, which ultimately converts to about 70,000 KwH, or about $7,000 worth of energy at current rates (10 cents/KwH) from 1/7 of an ounce of heavy hydrogen.
Let me repeat, complete cold fusion of 4 grams of D2 to helium produces 70,000 KwH of energy. By comparison, the combustion of 4 grams of gasoline produces about 0.006 KwH of energy. You can see from this that cold fusion has enormous potential, and this explains why someone one suggested that you could run a car for a million miles on a few ounces of cold fusion “fuel”.
Thank you, Kevmo, for bringing this to our attention.
Oops, it’s 24 MeV, not 28 Mev, so reduce the 70,000 KwH to 60,000 KwH, and the $7K to $6K. Still huge.
70,000 KwH of energy contrasted with 0.006 KwH
***So that’s 8 orders of magnitude more energetic, right?
This is why it’s so ridiculous to hear skeptopaths say that it’s a measurement error. Ok, I get it, if it were ONLY 3 orders of magnitude more energetic. But when we’re looking at something that’s 8 orders of magnitude more energetic, it doesn’t really matter if you measure it down to the 3rd decimal point. It is a HUGE amount more energetic.
You can see from this that cold fusion has enormous potential
***And yet, I have been asked multiple times why I keep posting on this topic.
In actual fact, sufficient calorimetric data exists to show that the 24MEV/nucleon correlates very well with the “excess heat” expected from the reaction D2 + D2 —> He4.
Data was collected by simultaneous use of calorimetric data to measure energy ou and mass spectroscopy to measure He4 formed.
LENR Lecture to be Held at the University of Northern Iowa

Thanks to Andreas Moraitis for pointing out this press release about an event to be held at the University of Northen Iowa in Cedar Falls, Iowa on March 10th:
CEDAR FALLS, Iowa The University of Northern Iowa will host a lecture on low-energy nuclear reactions (LENR) at 7 p.m., Monday, March 10, in the Center for Energy and Environmental Education Auditorium.
Tom Wind, an Iowa Department of Natural Resources officer, will provide information on this relatively new technology. LENR allows controlled fusion of hydrogen into helium in small modular reactors that can fit on a tabletop. This results in thermal energy with no radiation dangers, radioactive byproducts or combustion of fossil fuels, at a much lower cost than traditional fossil fuels.
This lecture is sponsored by the Recycling and Reuse Technology Transfer Center (RRTTC). For more information, contact Jennifer Bruss, RRTTC program and community outreach coordinator, at 319-273-3689 or jennifer.bruss@uni.edu.
“Does this mean they are closer to a working theory?”
Rossi has promised delivery of systems for the home in early 2014. I am sure that Kevmo has several on order. Ask Kevmo if he has received notification of delivery.
“Tom Wind, an Iowa Department of Natural Resources officer, will provide information on this relatively new technology. “
Great! This dude from RECYCLING is going to lecture on advanced physics. The LENR dudes are reaching a new low.
“Does any college teach LENR as a class, as part of a class or at all?”
That link Kevmo gave you is not an authentic MIT course.
“Does this mean they are closer to a working theory?”
Not really. From the article ...
“We are currently discussing the possibility of experimental detection of the cold DD fusion detection”
“In actual fact, sufficient calorimetric data exists to show that the 24MEV/nucleon correlates very well with the excess heat expected from the reaction D2 + D2 > He4.”
But the author says they are only in discussions about the POSSIBILITY of detecting the reaction. How can there be calorimetric data if they are just in DISCUSSIONS of the POSSIBILITY of detecting the reaction?
