Moving into the shorter days and longer nights of
the year once again starting in August, a reminder for you about
the ExtraOrdinary Technology Conference that is
about to take place in Albuquerque NM on August 9-13. Visit https://www.teslatech.info/ttevents/prgframe.html for
more info and registration. Steve also has DVDs and
electronic downloads of previous years of presentations too
online.
Our Story #1 is quite exciting since I am the
subject disclosing all of the adventures our institute is engaged
in. You can also relive the one hour Instagram interview with
Tyler at “Contacttour” by clicking on Contact
Tour Instagram Livestream. The
topics that I was interviewed about included zero point energy,
bioenergetics, electrotherapy, EM Pulser, UFO Textbook,
Disclosure, and the future, with several slides from my
presentations. It has had a few thousand views so far.
Story #2 is a great breakthrough for the storage
of hydrogen gas. Japanese researchers discovered
a perovskite-ammonia reaction that is fully reversible,
and the perovskite can be reused to store ammonia again after
retrieval is completed to release hydrogen gas under moderate
heating. Interestingly, the perovskite also changes color to
white when it stores ammonia and returns to its original yellow
after ammonia is retrieved. Scientists can exploit this feature
to make color-based sensors to determine the amount of ammonia
stored in the perovskite. We also note that Rice
University, in a related story announced this
month, can turn sunlight into hydrogen with record-breaking
20% efficiency thanks to a device that combines next-generation
halide perovskite semiconductors with electrocatalysts
in a single, durable, cost-effective and scalable device.
Story #3 shows that besides being the world’s
biggest CO2 emitter from fossil fuels, China also is pioneering
some record-setting renewable energy as well, with its new 16 MW
offshore wind turbine at almost 400 tons and almost 1000 feet in
diameter.
Story #4 is exciting because ZeroAvia now breaks
open the passenger plane commercial market for electric vehicles
with a hybrid hydrogen-electric combination in the UK. Maybe we
will such a development in the US fairly soon. In a related
story, Nikola
HYLA division which distributes hydrogen for the trucking
industry, signed two deals that sent their publicly trading stock
upwards, with the first including BayoTech for distribution of
H2. The second deal is between the Bosch company (maker of the
world’s best spark plugs) and Nikola for the design and production
of hydrogen fuel cell trucks.
Story #5 is about the world’s
first mission to the lunar south pole, with a
lunar lander from India. Whether the ice cap there will be of
concern is yet to be discussed. Landing is expected to occur near
to August 23-24, 2023. In a related story from Scientific
Reports in June, a multi-institutional team has
found that even three years back on earth may not reverse the
expanded fluid cavities in the brain of space travelers who spent
various amounts of time in space on the ISS. The findings suggest
that neuroplasticity changes resulting from adaptation to
microgravity may not be dependent on previous spaceflight
experience but are cumulative.
Lastly as a postscript, our institute’s
Promotional Code (PC22) will be extended through August
for a 10% discount on all products, including those on www.BioenergyDevice.org mentioned
in the Instagram interview.

IRI Press Release July 2023
Engaged
in the pursuit of scientific integrity in the areas of energy,
propulsion, and bioenergetics, Dr. Tom Valone conducts interviews
a few times per year. In this candid conversation while in the
front office of Integrity Research Institute (IRI), it has been
recorded for Instagram with lots of slides using Zoom, to update
everyone on the history of IRI, brief descriptions of the
best energy research results today, some of the latest book
publications, a definition and examples of bioenergetics, some of
the latest electrotherapy studies, published in NASA Tech Briefs,
Nature, etc., that directly have helped IRI including how it
relates to our EM Pulser 78. Dr. Valone also addressed questions
about the University Level Ufology Textbook he’s writing and our
global situation addressing the climate and energy crises, with a
view toward what the future may be like. The one-hour Instagram
is popular with over 2000 views so far. Note that the speaker
icon at the bottom of the screen has to be unmuted so you can
hear the dialogue. The interview is a fast-moving, illustrated,
dynamic view of what makes IRI a rapidly growing nonprofit
organization with effective networking around the world.

2) Hydrogen Storage, Simple and Affordable
|
|
|
|
Researchers
at the RIKEN Center for Emergent Matter Science (CEMS) in Japan
have found a simple and affordable way to store ammonia, an
important chemical in a range of industries. The discovery could
also help in establishing a hydrogen-based economy. Ammonia,
chemically written as NH3, is widely used across industries
ranging from textiles to pharmaceuticals and is an important
component in the manufacture of fertilizers. For its current use,
ammonia is stored in pressure-resistant containers after liquefying
it at temperatures of -27 Fahrenheit (-33 degrees Celsius).
Alternate methods of storing ammonia in porous compounds have been
explored. The storage and retrieval process can be achieved at
room temperature, but the storage capacity of these compounds is
limited.

3) World’s first 16MW offshore wind turbine begins
generating electricity
|
|
|
|
The
world’s first 16-megawatt (MW) offshore wind turbine off the coast
of east China’s Fujian Province was successfully connected to the
power grid and began generating electricity on Wednesday. The wind
turbine at the Fujian offshore wind farm is operated by the China
Three Gorges Corporation. The company said the wind turbine has the
largest single-unit generating capacity of all turbines in
operation worldwide.
It has a
rotor diameter of 252 meters (827 feet). The hub center height of
the 16 MW offshore wind turbine is 152 meters, and the combined
weight of the engine room and generator is 385 tons. The turbine’s
blades are each 123 meters long, weigh 54 tons, and can sweep an
area of approximately 50,000 square meters – the size of seven
standard soccer fields.

4) ZeroAvia’s hydrogen-electric powertrain completes
flight test campaign

Inceptive
Minds, July 2023
The ZA600
hydrogen-electric powertrain could change commercial airline
operations forever. Developed by ZeroAvia, the manufacturer of
hydrogen fuel cells-powered aviation powertrains, the ZA600 is a 500
to 750 kW continuous hydrogen-electric powertrain for fixed-wing
platforms.Now, the company has announced the completion of its
initial prototype ZA600 flight testing campaign using a retrofitted
Dornier 228 at Cotswold Airport in the UK. The 10th flight in the
initial series was completed last week. The powertrain proved its
efficiency and reliability through ten flights in various
challenging conditions.
