tmallard | I waited to 8:21pm, did soe on a survey monkey, rest on papers due, dust, microwaving dirt & hovercraft lander geometry. | 10:21:42 |

sean | Udit, Mondays are a bit inconvenient for me - will try and show when the opportunity strikes. Thanks again for picking up my/Suzi's slack~ | 07:21:27 |

udit.kumar.sahoo | Hi all... It's me and Tom waiting... | 03:07:52 |
pablo_arellano | Oh. I was in traffic. Still intereted but not to much time available đŁ | 05:34:11 |

blaj joined the room. | 09:56:45 | |
blaj | Hi all, any hero that would be willing to jump on a call with me in about two weeks and help me understand better how you manage to work together? :) Much appreciated! | 10:01:25 |

udit.kumar.sahoo | Hi all... I'm waiting | 03:09:22 |
tmallard | I was in full deadline panic mode, papers & presentations aren't due till the 14th !!! Race is still on, my stuff not up to par yet, big relief, was uploading what I had, I have to decline being there, can't afford it. The papers are hard on 2 phones & data, latency like the old days on build machines, net neutrality died. | 20:04:08 |

sean | I'll likely be MIA at least for the next 2 weeks; preparing an abstract for AIAA/IEEE and possibly a talk at PyData in December | 07:17:56 |

tmallard | I cancelled being at the IAF Congress, no cash, was supposed to present the paper on dust ... got my papers in on time (y) | 23:56:32 |

Carlos Gonzalez-Rivera | DAMN! tmallard that's a bummmer | 01:54:26 |
Carlos Gonzalez-Rivera | @room I'll be at the IAF Congress from 22nd-24th. I'll be meeting with our counterparts to determine my best feasible options for my PhD research. Anything you guys need from me while Im in D.C.? | 01:58:49 |

tmallard | Carlos Gonzalez-Rivera: I have this basic relationship going: Fg = mass1â˘mass2/d² With d equal this says charge is exponentially stronger than gravity, And that implies how UFOs can accelerate straight up no problem. | 02:29:28 |
jbperry | If youâre thinking of using the electric field between the ground and the upper atmosphere for propulsion, it wonât work. Any object in the atmosphere with sufficiently large charge would create a strong electric field, and would discharge rapidly via corona discharge. If you separate the charged object from the air with a insulated gap, opposite charge will collect on the outside, and you will have just built a capacitor with zero net charge. | 20:55:52 |
jbperry | Also, Coulomb's law is kqq/d^2 | 21:00:42 |
jbperry | It is possible to charge up isolated objects to high voltages in space using electron guns. There is a propulsion concept called an âelectric sailâ which uses a set of positively charged wires to generate thrust by repelling the solar wind protons. | 21:06:47 |

tmallard | Download reflective reluctance-01.png | 02:40:29 |
tmallard | jbperry ... you're on your own on you assumptions. Reflective reluctance provides a counterforce to charged plasmas, prove otherwise in equations, your verbage is not correct. | 02:42:25 |
sean | In reply to @jbperry:matrix.org^this | 03:05:33 |
sean | In reply to @cagonzalez8:matrix.orgCarlos Gonzalez-Rivera: I can't think of anything specific at the moment, but will let you know if something comes to mind. Enjoy the conference! | 03:08:29 |
sean | In reply to @tmallard:matrix.orgCoulomb's law and electrodynamics of capacitors are well understood, so I'm not sure what exactly is being refuted here. | 03:28:00 |
sean | Also, as a general rule of thumb, let's please try and keep all discussions civil, respectful, and (when possible) free of logical fallacies; the burden of proof is on the one making a bold claim, not on the established theory. Let's all do our best to abide by the rigors of the scientific method | 03:29:40 |
jbperry | I canât make much sense of those equations without context, but reluctance is a property in inductive circuits. I do not see how it is relevant to non-neutral plasmas which are dominated by electric forces and generally do not create large net currents. This is from the Wikipedia page on reluctance | 20:54:56 |

tmallard | Nice news, on Anton's channel, 8:23; Watch "Wow, 9 Out of 10 Crops Flourish in Lunar and Martian Soil!" on YouTube | 01:00:10 |
tmallard | jbperry RE: Reluctance as a repulsive force. There are teo parts to this; Calculate the reluctance counterforce required to hover, the power & frequencies to create the reluctance in the astral body, Earth, Moon, asteroid ... a simple extension of microwaving lunar dirt. There are properties in dirt of note, permeability, reactance, electret and resistance relative to doing this. 2nd: Given it shades, somewhere near hovering the craft zips up, the energy barrier freeing the occupants from most G's, why they wouldn't turn to jello.

Carlos Gonzalez-Rivera | sean: Good to go | 09:53:31 |

tmallard | Carlos Gonzalez-Rivera: Give us a report from IAF, ok? | 00:54:54 |

tmallard | I was into a project and missed last night, 8:36 when I saw the clock ... duh. | 17:07:11 |
