  • The Animate and the Inanimate
    William Sidis
    Sidis entertains the idea that life originated on Earth from asteroids (as put forth by Lord Kelvin and Hermann von Helmholtz) while describing his theory as a synthesis of the mechanical and vitalist life models. Sidis also claims that stars are 'alive' and go through an eternally repeating light-dark cycle, with the second law reversing in the dark portion of the cycle. Sidis...

  • The Mystery of Space - A Study of the Hyperspace Movement in the Light of the Evolution of New Psychic Faculties and an Inquiry into the Genesis and Essential Nature of Space
    Robert T. Browne
    Mathematics is the biometer of intellectual evolution. Hence, the determination of the status quo of the intellect at any time can be accomplished most satisfactorily by applying to it the rigorous measure of the mathematical method. The intellect has but one true divining rod and that is mathematics. By day and by night it points the way unerringly, so long as it leads through...

  • Nasa History
    Jeremy Knapp
    The apollo program is the most famous and celebrated in american history, but the first successful landing of men on the moon during apollo 11 had complicated roots dating back over a decade, and it also involved one of nasa’s most infamous tragedies. From 1959-1963, the united states worked toward putting satellites and humans into orbit via the mercury program, but eisenhower...

  • How Time Dilation Creates Propulsive Gravity
    Scott Calvert
           The title and sub-title say a lot about what the concept of the book revolves around. What I can add here about it is that I originally posed this theory of gravity to be more of an alternate to general relativity (GR). After finishing the book and starting a paper to submit to a journal more became apparent to me. The concept in this book I first considered parallel to ...

    This manuscript was not supposed to go public. However, because it was written in three joined parts and over two consecutive years, there was a problem as to what to call it chronically, 1969-2011 or 1969-2012. So the author chose the latter.Author, Mr. Redus, has looked into the cathode ray tube of his soul to find his way out of his 'commonplace silencing.' (It is what A Quo...
