Hi Yipster

Throwing batteries in water?

Buying nBottles of H and O.

WHY - when solar power will give you all the H & O you could ever want for free?

Sadly Yip - as Bearden points out we are probably 20 - 50 years away from affordable Hydrogen fuel cell technology...however I have it on fairly good authority that shares in such technology bought now, could well be worth a great deal in 20 years time!

Theres no doubt that we will end up a hydrogen energy planet, eventually....

The only "trick" is what ebergy we utilise to provide us the hydrogen from water in a timely affordable manner...

Interestingly, trees do this already useing sunlight in the process we know as photosynthesis. Is large scale synthetic "photosynthesis" a potential affordable H generation system?

I mean - the byproduct of photosynthesis is O2...so wheres the H go and how do we intercept it cheaply?

Beardens approach to splitting water into H2 & O would be to utilize energy from the vacuum of space, (time domain) thu gang switched spatial circuits.....as he details in his MEG patent for same.

We could for example utilise Tidal power to generate the needed electricity to separate the elements of our DiHydrogen Monoxide (H20) necessary to provide us with fuel cell energy

Exciting to think that the energy that may one day propell us thru the water might come from the water itself...limitless free energy for vessels in superabundance - sure beats the hell outta 2 or 5 bucks a gallon for oil now don't it!

Just imagine - a hydrogen "fuel spill" wouldn't kill all the sea birds, penguins, seals etc etc...like Exonn Valdez did.

Were not far from the goal Yipster...and your on the right track - all you need is the energy to extract your hyrdrogen fuel from the water...and where that energy will come from - is open to debate.

Again - I suspect Hubbard knew a LOT more, than we ever found out!

What a shame the See Eye Ehh and got him with LSD!

You familiar with the 'Aricebo message' Yipster?

Do a google and get back to me - silicon versus carbon lifeforms may be our eventual answer...if I am reading the crop circle clues right!

Water magnetrometers for extracing H - might be what the silicons are trying to tell us, thru their crop circle messages Yipster!

Scott me up beamey!

Cheers!

funnily enough I was thinking about eltromagnetic means of propulsion prior to readng this thread...

is it possible (not just theory) to have an electromagentic 'engine' that would 'push' against the water thus driving a boat? In a similar manner to how magnets work (repulsion)

Would the energy required be greater than the resulting output? How would one control it?
