Re: Sensitive DIY Gravimeter Plans!

Hi Folks,

In light of the fact this group is dedicated to exploring gravity, among
other things. And the possibility that some have, are, or may be close to
producing a gravity modification, or an isolated source of gravity; I thought
it timely and appropriate that the Jan 2000 issue of Scientific American has
plans for a sensitive Gravimeter in the "Amateur Scientist" column.

The logic looks good, and details are clear, and it appears not cost too much.

See it here:

http://www.sciam.com/2000/0100issue/0100amsci.html

And see the designer's description here (more details, and a sensitive
magnetometer as well):

http://www.eden.com/~rcbaker/

I see it as a valuable tool for any mad scientist exploring anti grav! The
idea is to build one (or two) and establish a long term baseline to be sure
it corresponds to local tides, and use a second one to measure anomalies in
specific experiments.

Compare the control or reference readings with any anomalous readings to see
if you actually did modify gravity! And in addition, use Baker's
magnetometer to establish a reading of fluctuations in the local magnetic
field to rule this out as to influence on the "gravity result" (magnetic
fields affect this gravimeter).

Just wanted to share this little gem.
