The following succinct and simple explanation of tapping gravity was
posted to; sci.physics.relativity.
=========================
When explaining the Gravity Wind (GW) to research colleagues I hold up a
book and say,
"See, you can actually feel the gravitational wind blowing vertically
down on this book. Look what happens when I let go. The gravity wind
catches it and slams it against the floor."
Once gravity is seen as a wind blowing steadily downwards there are some
very obvious questions.
For instance, "Can we harness this wind in some way?"
To some extent we do this already. Hydro power harnesses the gravity
wind. Solar energy takes the water up into the atmosphere and gravity
wind brings it down again.
"But are there more direct ways?"
"Is it possible to make a gravity windmill, for example?"
To do this one has to provide some kind of sail which deflects the
wind; through 90 degrees say.
The equal and opposite reaction on the sail will push it horizontally.
In effect the sail would be falling sideways and providing there are no
buildings in the way will continue to fall sideways indefinitely.
Clearly, if one could build such a mill it would be a very attractive
proposition. Unlike the atmospheric aether wind the gravitational aether
wind blows constantly, night and day year in and year out.
What is more it blows everywhere on earth. It even blows under the
earth. Perhaps it's this very constancy that inhibits GW from being
recognised for what it is. A wind. A rather special wind to be sure.
But a wind none the less.
The essence of a mill seems to be that it ties together two different
levels of motion in much the same way that a sailboat ties together the
wind and the waves. At atmospheric windmill vane has its keel in the
axle its sail in the air.
A GW mill will need to link together the Gravitational aether with its
characteristic FTL particle speed and some higher scale ether,
presumably the EM ether with its characteristic light speed.
How could one imagine what form such a sail would take?
-----------------------------------
There is a very interesting device which is a kind of mill from which
one can obtain certain hints on how to go about the task as devising a
GW sail.
It is called a Crookes Radiometer.
A good example of energy generation between two "ethers" or two levels
of the compound aether if you prefer, is given by the Crookes
Radiometer. The EM ether is at one level and the thin atmosphere ether
at the other. Not many horse power in this case, agreed. But it's the
principle that's important.
What makes the Crookes Radiometer even more impressive is that both the
EM radiation and the molecular "radiation" are isotropic. The GW on the
other hand is anisotropic which should make things easier.
