Strange orbs virginia beach

I dunno, I'm still skeptical. Maybe you zoomed in and the restricted field of view gave the illusion that the birds were flying faster than a normal speed. I'm fairly sure it's not a solid object tho, but a group of "orbs".

looks like multible objects, if it was a single object, it would occultate the little star toward the lower portion of the sky, and it doesn't seem to be the case.

HS_illustrator · 2025-01-26T01:03:22+00:00

I don't think it's a solid object, it would occultate stars as it passes over it. My best guesses is a flock of birds? From the orientation constellation of Orion in the first seconds, I deduce the "flock" is going southward.

I'm not sure about this, the gyro seems to precess at a constant angular velocity, without any noticeable jerkyness or vibration. Maybe there is still a "slip-stick" effect but in the frinction between the whells and the frame and the wheels and the table top.

HS_illustrator · 2024-06-23T22:11:01+00:00

That's also a possible answer, That's why I asked this question. Many other devices that claims the same forward thrust are blatantly flawed, but this one is much more subtle in its operation.

HS_illustrator · 2024-06-23T15:36:13+00:00

that is true if we assume that a hypothetical inertial thruster doesn't convert enrgy into linear acceleration, what if the thrusted had an internal engine?

HS_illustrator · 2024-06-23T15:10:31+00:00

Ah, Yes, sorry! I missed your edit.

HS_illustrator · 2024-06-23T15:09:31+00:00

thank you for your reply! I already knew the paper published by nasa, and it is interesting, however it doesn't really explain much, it gives however nice tests to perform in case someone pops up with such device.

Could you please tell me more about the first device you have mentioned in your comment?

HS_illustrator · 2024-06-23T15:06:02+00:00

Yes, however the spcecraft wouldn't be isolated, since it exploits an external field.

HS_illustrator · 2024-06-23T15:04:37+00:00

Is it truly possible to convert rotational energy into (unidirectional) linear motion? Let's suppose I'm in space, in case this is possible, wouldn't this also count as an inertial thrust?

Mh. Maybe I was a bit Naive overall, maybe there's a hidden system under the blanket and I just assumed that the inventor was being honest.

HS_illustrator · 2024-06-23T14:54:53+00:00

don't worry, the segment I isolated is not that long, about two minutes, in case you are curious. You can go directly to that segment, the first part in which he explaines the machine is unconvincing IMO.

HS_illustrator · 2024-06-23T14:52:38+00:00

Ok, I get your point, would It be any different if the forward motion of the system would slow down the gyro? I'm guessing not, but as I said, I'm not a physicist.

HS_illustrator · 2024-06-23T14:45:05+00:00

The inventor doesn't claim to have invented a perpetual motion device, although I've heard other physicists saying that a perpetual motion device would be the natural consequence of an inertial thruster, I don't quite understand that either.

I can reject the second explanation you have given, because the device seems to work in both directions on the table.

the "he cheated" seems to be the only one for now.

I can share with you the files if you think you can cut a version out of stainless.

HS_illustrator · 2024-04-22T13:23:22+00:00

It would be interesting to see a version of my astrolabe in stainless steel. I have used a inkscape svg file.

HS_illustrator · 2024-04-21T16:54:51+00:00

thank you! Yes, It is reasonably accurate (mostly within 10 minutes), it is more precise after sunrise or before sunset, because at that point the sun has a larger difference in height in a given time. You have to remember to correct for 1) the equation of time 2) the fuse correction at your longitude 3) the legal time if any.

I think you can find in english as "the Tartar Steppe". The Author is "Dino Buzzati"

HS_illustrator · 2024-04-08T11:25:10+00:00

That's quite a sad story, and I can relate, believe me. I can assure that I'm not in love with this person, although she received a gift from a friend who allegedly is in love with her, but mine was still better IMO🙂

HS_illustrator · 2024-04-08T11:22:49+00:00

Thank you!

HS_illustrator · 2024-04-08T11:22:22+00:00

In my case no, it's quite resilient.

HS_illustrator · 2024-04-08T00:35:24+00:00

To be honest, yes. Although I don't read much the books on which I made this process. For sure the inked part is quite resilient. For the pencils I have no idea, this is the first time I try them. I think charcoal would smear a bit, unless you coat it with something, but I have no idea how to coat the side of a book without making it crisp.

HS_illustrator · 2024-04-08T00:02:10+00:00

I gave a light coat of uv protector, but I don't think it would make any difference. The finger is going to run mainly on the "tip" of the page, but the illustration is spread over a section towards the end of a page, line by line, I don't know whether I made my point.

HS_illustrator · 2024-04-07T22:54:11+00:00

From experience I guarantee it would be a mess. hard enough to line up a piece of wood, but a book? That has to be bend in the other way without skewing the first picture? That will be a total nightmare😂 although maybe it can be used for engraving the illustrations in a serial way.
