But as I stated in my original comment, with a few billion in US Greenbacks and access to whatever you might want or need to FURTHER DEVELOP this mode of flying… who knows where it COULD go?<br /><br />Note: I built the Basic Lifter myself and it was really a lot of fun to fart around with in front of the kids and their friends. But give me unlimited funding and materials and I may someday build one that more closely resembles a flying, triangular RV than a balsa wood oddity.<br /><br />Oh… and I wasn’t aware that any of these black triangles had been seen flitting about in space… or empty mayonnaise jars. (Re: “Moreover, because it relies on a reaction mass, lifters cannot operate in a sealed container or in a vacuum.”)<br /><br />I need another cup of coffee…<br /><br />It goes back to the same type of argument that says with certainty that a benevolent and ominipotent spirit can create the universe and all that’s in it in six days. But… as for the existence of UFOs? That’s just crazy!<br /><br />You can imagine a universe full of anti grav driven machines and extratrestrials and other exotic propulsion systems along with greys and reptilians and, and, and… but terestrial-based flying triangles that may be utilizing advanced and hithrto undiscovered lifter technology? That’s just crazy!<br /><br />Happy New Year!

ONLY ONE ARTICLE with 3 minor updates were issued and that was in May. I'm the only person to remember this I'm thinking....<br />it was reported May, 2006. <br /><br />http://www.news24.com/News24/South_Africa/News/0,,2-7-1442_1936528,00.htmljsmhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14515697947444873919noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36467490.post-30260062238991898692006-12-25T01:34:00.000-06:002006-12-25T01:34:00.000-06:00Lifters, as tested on Myth Busters, operate by the...Lifters, as tested on Myth Busters, operate by the high voltage generating air current, and do not operate inside a vacuum chamber.<br /><br />Although they are wild and funAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36467490.post-27650555800909628332006-12-24T21:53:00.000-06:002006-12-24T21:53:00.000-06:00I hate to tell you this, but lifters are (1) gross...I hate to tell you this, but lifters are (1) grossly energy inefficient (15% to 18% efficient at best), which means that they'll produce voluminous waste as a byproduct of their functioning (excess heat, electromagnetic radiation, et. al.). These would be readily detectable by a disinterested grade-schooler, much less someone peering at a triangle from directly beneath it. This alone negates the lifter theory. But there's more. (2) Lifters rely on ionic wind propulsion -- in short, it's a jet engine that uses no moving parts. Even if the energy efficiency could be addressed (and it has, as our ion propulsion systems designed by NASA has proven), since we're dealing with moving air volumes, and sound is just moving air, it follows that these things ought to create <i>some kind of jet-like noise</i>. Not one genuine triangle has produced any audible noise record beyond a humming or throbbing sound, like a seized up motor. Most, in fact, produce <b>no sound at all</b>. Moreover, because it relies on a reaction mass, lifters cannot operate in a sealed container or in a vacuum.<br /><br />So, in short, these things <i>cannot</i> be Terran-made at this time, since our physics simply and utterly is incapable of describing the operation of these machines.<br /><br />Note, I'm completely and deliberately skipping over the issue of maneuverability. These triangles are known for their sloth behavior, but upon instigation, they can exhibit saucer-like maneuverability. They've been observed to outpace fighter jets, despite their visible size. They've been observed to make sharp, 90-degree (or more) turns effortlessly. Etc.<br /><br />All these things indicate a level of technology so far superior to our own understanding that it makes lifters look like the mere toys they actually are.Samuel A.

But perhaps there really should be no amazement, especially when even mainstream science regularly turns its back on evidence that shouts, demanding attention.<br /><br />As for the black triangles, they just look too much like a human-made machine. In fact, they look remarkably like a little bit of garage science called ‘lifters’.<br /><br />The Lifter is usually made of aluminum foil, string, balsa strips and copper wire. These contraptions are then powered into a mode of flight that simulates anti grav. <br /><br />Image link: <br />http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Lifter_with_power_supply.jpg<br /><br />If you spend any amount of time looking over the various websites dedicated to them, you’ll see that these Lifters were first created in a triangular design. As the hobbyist have grown more able, they have taken on other shapes as well… but the basic configuration is indeed a triangle.<br /><br />Now then, how much of a leap is it to imagine any of America’s defense contractors engaging in a black project to further develop this mode of flying? I mean, geez, if it can be done in someone’s garage, why couldn’t a few billion dollars and an unlimited access to physical resources produce something akin to one of those Black Triangles?<br /><br />But… the UFO community has continually looked to the interstellar skies to find answers to each and every unusual object.<br /><br />Now before I am fallen upon for that last bit of heresy, let me state that I am a firm believer in an extraterrestrial explanation for some unidentified flying objects. And since I can’t imagine that we (humans) aren’t in the business of expanding the currently known realms of aviation and space flight, placing the black triangle in the hands of humans seems like one possible fit.<br /><br />If it walks like a duck and quacks like a duck… it might be, what?<br /><br />Here’s one more link for Lifters.
