     The ZERO/REDUCED-Gravity Chamber described below has obvious potential
applications for Chemistry, allowing chemical processes, etc., which now can
ONLY be done on the Space Shuttle, AT GREAT EXPENSE.
    

                         Gravity-NEUTRALIZING Spacecraft
                         or ZERO/REDUCED-Gravity Chamber

               NASA should build an experimental spacecraft based on 
          U.S. Patent #3,626,605 [at least $1.00 per complete copy from 
          U.S. Patent Office, 2021 Jefferson Davis Hwy., Arlington, VA  
          22202; correct 7-digit patent number required.  Or try getting 
          it via your local public or university library's inter-library 
          loan dept..], titled "METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR GENERATING A 
          SECONDARY GRAVITATIONAL FORCE FIELD", awarded to Inventor 
          Henry W. Wallace on Dec. 14, 1971. 
    
               In the patent, Figs. 7A and 7B are basically side views 
          of a gravity-NEUTRALIZING FLYING SAUCER, or, if anchored to 
          the ground, a ZERO-GRAVITY CHAMBER [which could have MANY 
          possible GROUND-level applications for science, medicine, 
          manufacturing, etc.].  Each oval diagram shows a motor 
          spinning a central disc at a very high speed, about 28,000 
          RPM, and also rotating two other discs sandwiched around the 
          first disc, via gears, at a much slower speed, perhaps 2,800 
          RPM, in the opposite direction.  The two outer discs have 
          extensions [counter-balanced via off-center axis] that, as 
          they rotate, alternately make contact with two wide 
          extensions from opposite walls of the spacecraft.  The 
          central disc should have shallow spiral-shaped grooves on 
          both sides for air-bearings, to allow the needed very close 
          contact with the two outer discs. 
    
               I should clarify that each of the two outer discs has 
          ONLY ONE [counter-balanced] extension, each one pointed 
          opposite (180 degrees) the extension of the other disc. 
    
               VERY CLOSE CONTACT must be made as the disc extensions 
          slide past the wall extensions in order to conduct the 
          "Kinemassic" Energy (term coined by the Inventor) from the 
          discs to the walls in an ALTERNATING CIRCULATION. 
    
               The most important factor making it work is that the 
          discs, extensions, and outer walls of the spacecraft MUST be 
          made of any material(s) in which a very large majority of the 
          atoms are of isotopes having "half integral atomic spin", 
          such as copper (3/2).  All other parts, etc., should have a 
          minority of such atoms.  [See the appropriate column of the 
          table of isotopes in the latest edition of "The Handbook of 
          Chemistry and Physics."] 
    
               Experimenters should use one motor to spin the center 
          disc, and a 2ND SEPARATE motor to rotate the two outer discs, 
          so their relative speeds can be varied to establish the 
          needed conditions for PROPULSION of the spacecraft via 
          "NEGATIVE WEIGHT" (with the spacecraft's "Kinemassic" field 
          PUSHING AGAINST the earth's gravitational field, etc.). 
    

               If we have to put up a space station, establish Moon 
          bases, go to Mars, rendezvous with comets, etc., WHY DO IT 
          THE HARD WAY?! 
    
               Your favorite university or research company could make 
          a big name for itself by making a small model of this work. 
    

               UN-altered REPRODUCTION and DISSEMINATION of this 
          IMPORTANT Information is ENCOURAGED.
