Theincreased power would be small and the cost large. But the saving would be sodoubtful and the results so small that it is useless to figure on it.So like everyone elsewho has studied the subject. M. Santos will find that he must delve in otherdirection seeking assistance from some other source. His Latest ExperimentHe informed me thathis balloon dips during flights. It rocks as though it were riding a swell ofthe ocean. In order to partially rectify this tendency the young aeronaut hasplaned two partitions in his balloon, which divide the gasbag into threecompartments. The surfaces of the partitions are not varnished, are holed andporous, permitting the gas to percolate or pass slowly through, thus avoidingthe evils of gas displacement.To make his airshipabsolutely steady M. Santos is about to add a number of aeroplanes to theframework. They are simple frames of some light but strong material. Bamboo oraluminum, on which, light silk is stretched. The adjustment of these at thewill of the operator will prove efficacious in giving greater control of theairship.This departure bySantos-Dumont would seem to indicate no very radical change in construction butin reality it is a noteworthy alteration of his design.The young Brazilian,to some, may seem a very narrow man, but to me his ability to see things oneside only appears as the result of that supreme quality which every successfulman possesses, namely, concentration.Takes One Thing at aTime.He looks at thingsfrom one point of view merely as a microscope searches for one small part of anobject. He has devoted himself to the balloon part of his airship and hasexhausted the subject and so turns to some other phase in the construction ofvehicles of aerial navigation. He finds his attention centered in aeroplanesand for a time he will see nothing but these planes. He will learn all there isto be learned and put the practical use his knowledge and then divert it tosome other phase and slowly but surely will arrive at practical results thatthe whole world will appreciate.I think that when hefully realizes the lifting power of aeroplanes he will add great many of themto his future airship, and discovering that they undoubtedly add greatly to thelifting power he will eventually be able to construct a ship to carry a numberof passengers without increasing the size o the present balloon. Another thing thatwould greatly assist in his work of navigating the air is the possibility ofliquefying hydrogen. If this can be done on a commercial basis, M. Santos willmerely have to carry a few small receptacles containing liquid hydrogen, and bereleasing a small quantity at a time can keep the balloon filled. There are, ofcourse, difficulties in the way of even this, but they doubtless will beovercome, as have others before them.-----------The 'family' inventions of Santos = Dumont - his own drawing, January 8, 1929Logic ofthe inventive process of Santos=Dumont "The man is unable to fly" - that line that was constantly heard bySantos=Dumont, but it did not discourage him. He knew that the flight wasplausible, all he had to do was to abstract the concept of impossibility. Inhis
mind there was no shortage of resources, quite the contrary, S=D tested ahuge range of real possibilities of flight.These werethe steps taken by Santos=Dumont for his inventions, note that as nature does,he did not jump from one invention to another. Every discovery was the resultof a process of reasoning (by a privileged mind) applied to practicalsituations in a sequence of impeccable logic. (See thechronological order inventions of Santos = Dumont) 1 - Hedetermined that the invention of the airplane, the flight of heavier than air,was possible, since the birds, insects and other animals flies; 2 - He beganhis inventive process from technology in hand, undirigible balloons and steamengines; 3 - Hequestioned the use of oil engine and step-by-step invented the dirigibility ofballoons;4 - Hisinvention evolved following a logical order of inventions to improve hisairship to the state of the art;5 - Hestarted experimenting with heavier than air, studied the fluctuation of heavierthan air with the help of displacement and handling (n.11 and n.14), and intests in the water (n. 18 );6 - Createdthe flight of heavier than air (n. 14 Bis);7 -Improved the flight of heavier than air aircraft in several other airships (no.15 and n.20);
years to understand the concept of unpatentedinventions and open source software as a source of prosperity).In other hand, ThomasEdison had great commercial interest in their inventions and not devoted histime to anything that could not be patented and have some financial result.Hope you enjoy this Americanarticle. - May 1902(Copyright 1902 byHerbert Wallace)THOMAS A. EDISONbelieves that mankind ought to be ashamed of itself because the problem ofaerial navigation by human beings was not solved years ago. He also makes therather remarkable statement that, while Santos-Dumont has done a great thing insteering airships about through the air, it will be a long time before anycontrivance for air navigation is commercially possible, because no inventorwill be able to secure any reward for his labor in this line of work under thepresent patent laws. To make this great possibility practical, it seems that weshall have to establish a sort of protective academy of invention, which shallreward the successful inventor of the commercial airship.I was down in Floridarecently and one day I watched a big bird I think it was a vulture thatfloated about in the air a whole hour without moving its wings perceptibly.When God made that bird He gave it a machine to fly with, but He didnt give itmuch else. He gave the bird a very small brain with which to direct themovements of the machine, but He gave to a man a much larger brain inproportion to that of the bird.Mr. Edison is not thefirst to make such a comparison, but when he talked this way the other day toSantos-Dumont, the Brazilian aeronaut, there was a world of meaning in thewords. The wizard of the laboratory was much interested in the young man whohad wondered Paris and the world by steering an airship over the city, not oncebut several times.You are the only manwho has done such a thing. Exclaimed Mr. Edson.I am sure you havenever worked on the problem of aerial navigation, replied Santos-Dumont, oryou would have accomplished years ago more than I have done now. The aeronautwas not trying to be complimentary; he has this biggest admiration for Mr.Edison and his inventive genius.I dont know aboutthat, said Edison. I did take it up once several years ago and built aspecially light motor to be operated by exploding gunpowder, I experienced alot in lifting weights with it, but I worked with a small model and did notattempt to fly. I gave it all up because I had a number of other things to dowhich were far more profitable.Santos-Dumont Finds aSupporter in Edison.New York Journal April 14th, 1902I took so muchinterest in Dumonts flying machine scheme that I suggested to him an aerialclub in this country. There are plenty of men to be interested in such anenterprise, and I will probably join myself Famous aerialnavigator greatly pleased with his reception at Orange house NJ He will go toWashington tomorrow.His miniature modelstill in customhouse.Proposed exhibitionof little flying machine, which was to have been given today, is thereforepostponed.The article emphasizesthe importance of meeting of the two great men (yesterday) when the Wizardacquainted with the King
of the Air.Santos-Dumont spentthe whole of the afternoon with Thomas Edison at the latters home in Orange,N. J. and was greatly impressed with the great investors workshops.At the end, EmmaKaufman article Santos-Dumont as a woman sees him _______________________________________________________________________________Ill tell you, hewent on earnestly, If the patent office only protected the inventorsufficiently the problem of aerial navigation would have been solved thirtyyears ago.Must Discard the Balloon.Santos-Dumont lookedat Edison with some surprise and turned to M. Aime, his companion, to remarkthat had the laws been right the thing would have been done before he wasborne, Mr. Edison saw the discomfiture of his guest and remarked:But you are allright. You are on the right track. You have made an airship and you have steeredit and you have made a step toward the final solution of the problem. Keep atit. But get rid of your balloon. Make it smaller all the time.Have you noticed, Mr.Edison, inquired the aeronaut, that I am making the balloon smaller everytime I build a new airship?.Yes, and thatsright, replied Edison, but make it smaller Yet. You are doing well, but itwill take a long time to make the thing commercially possible. When you getyour balloon part smaller and yet smaller until it is so small that you cannotsee it with a microscope then you solved the problem.Here, in a nutshell,Is Mr. Edisons solution of the problem of aerial navigation. He believesfirmly it can be solved. But he believes just as firmly that the solution mustbe reached by means of the flying machine and not by the airship. Only with themachine, he says, can air navigation ever be made either safe or commerciallyprofitable. This will be clear to the reader when it is explained the termairship applies to a contrivance that, being lighter than the air, floats init as a ship floats on the water. The term flying machine, on the other hand,refers as he uses it, to a contrivance heavier than the air it is intended tonavigate. At rest such an apparatus would not float at all, the high speed atwhich it moves. In Edisons mind, then, aerial navigation is simply a questionof sufficient motive power, properly applied, to overcome the lack of buoyancynecessary to make the machine rise and to keep it in sufficient motion to holdit in position a certain number of feet above the earth. He constantly refersto the figure of the bird which anyone may see rise and fly at will.Take the case of thevulture, he said here is a natural flying machine which is a thousand times asheavy as the air it displaces. In a few seconds of leisure flight it can sweepover a distance which man finds encumbered with all sorts of obstacles andthere is scarcely a flutter of its wings in the operation. There is nothingthere but a machine and a small brain and it is not a very remarkable machineeither. Why is it that a man cannot make a flying machine as efficient as thebird? A lot of people say that it was never meant that a man should fly; thatif nature had
intended such a thing, man would have been provided with thenecessary machinery in his body, such as is now possessed by the bird. But youmight just as well say that it was never intended that man should have anylight aside from the sun and the moon and stars which were originally providedfor him, or that he should not move about faster with the aid of wheels becauseno wheels were supplied to him by nature.No Electric Flying MachineSomeone asked Mr.Edison whether his new storage battery would be of service in solving the problemof aerial navigation.Oh, no, of coursenot, he replied, It would be too heavy. We must get the lightest possiblemotive power. Thus the greatest factor of this problem is to get a very lightmotor, which will be powerful enough to operate the flying machine properly.The best thing now in sight for this purpose is a gasoline or gunpowder motor,something that will get up power quickly and which, at the same time, weightslittle. Santos-Dumont is on the right track in this regard, but of his gasbag. Youcannot control a balloon in a gale of wind. In order to make a commercialpossibility of the airship it will be necessary to make its operationabsolutely sure and its use safe. The flying machine is bound to come, but itwill take some time at the rate we are progressing now.It was suggested toMr. Edison that perhaps he might take up the problem again himself and assistin the final solution. No, I will not gointo anything which cannot be protected from the pirates who live off the workof inventions, and I do not believe it would be possible to secure a patent onother a flying machine or an airship or any part of one that would stand thetest of the courts. If someone should make a commercially successful flyingmachine dozens would at once copy the models and take away the fruits of theoriginal inventors labor. There isnt a judge in the country who would holdthat there was really any invention in such an apparatus, because so much hasbeen done and written about it that the only difference between the successfulmachine, which have been, will be very alight. I doubt whether any newprinciple will be discovered on which even a claim for a patent may be made.The man or men whoreally solve the problem of flying through the air will find out nothing new.Powerful motors of wonderful compactness will be applied to a framework ofextreme lightness and that will be all there will be to it. Doubtless thisframework will be something similar to physical structure of a bird. I do notbelieve it will be difficult, because we have many mechanical devices now,which are superior to the devices used by nature in human beings and animals,and I do not see why we may not put together a contrivance which will be atleast equal to the machine and brain of the bird.Prof. Langleys EffortsProfessor S. P.Langley of the Smithsonian Institute, Washington, was on of the first men inthis country to experiment with flying machines machines Heavier than the air unless we
admit the Immortal Darius Green ("Darius Green and His FlyingMachine" is a famous story poem written in 1869 by John TownsendTrowbridge) and his far-farmed flying machine into our chronology of scientificexperiments. Professor Langley had a theory to prove and proved it. He did notaccompany his aerodrome in its flights, but he demonstrated beyond a shadow ofdoubt that mechanical flight is possible. Sir Hiram Maxim showed this also withhis aeroplane. As a man of science, who had much work to do, Langley proved allhe wanted to. It is time now for others to make the flying machine commerciallyavailable. It took Prof. Langley several years to develop his main idea as toflying, but during those years he reached many interesting conclusions whichwill doubtless be taken into account by the inventors who attempt to follow himand carry on the idea of Edison as to navigate the air.In his preliminaryexperiments, Prof. Langley a bowed that, disregarding the friction, which isslight, a 200-pound plate could be moved through the air at a rate of fiftymiles an hour with the expenditure of one horse power energy. That is a ton ofweight could be drown horizontally through space and upon the air with anengine of only ten-horse power. In his airship No. 7, Santos-Dumont will haveengines of ninety aggregated horse power sufficient to move a flat plateweighting nine tons through the air at the rate of fifty miles an hour. As amater of fact, the Santos-Dumont No. 7 will weight when collapsed less than aton and when the gas bag is filled with hydrogen the whole machine will have alifting power of 2.500 pounds. With this equipment the young man hopes to speedthrough the air at the rate of forty-five miles an hour.Thomas Edison card to Santos=DumontIt must be clearlyunderstood, however that Santos-Dumont type of airship cannot be operated in astiff breeze or in changeable winds; indeed, the aeronaut does not make anyclaim that he can navigate the air in all kinds of weather. Given fair weatherSantos-Dumont will not beallain to launch his craft and fly away over citiesand seas; the sensation of fear seems to be entirely absent from his make-up.I always have a gooddeal to do when I am in my ship, he explains, and I do not have time to thinkabout being afraid. I dont know what it is to be afraid of falling.Langley ExperimentsInteresting ExperimentsIt seems an almostuniversal belief that the air itself offers tremendous resistance to thepassage of any body through it. As a matter of fact, it doesnt. the bird inits flight has been both a constant wonder to man and as unending promoter ofhope that some day he may equal its aerial movements, but if the air resistedflight, according to the computations.(Continued on SeventhPage.)
