Belmont History Lesson
I posted on the La Roche Knight Templars in 2015. When did I contact the BHS. Did Denny Lawhern read my posts on the Shroud of Turin? Below is my later brothers theories. He invented programs for the computer, worlked on the Spare Shuttles, and military weapoms. Mrk Broderick Presco Presco is a great grandon of Carl Janke and William Broderick. Out sister, Christine Rosamond Benton was one of the highest earning women artists in art history. Mark’s son claims je is a founder of AL and lives in Sunnyvale. Genetech was the largest emplpuer of Citizens of Belmont. Why had The Hanke Gene been attaked……AND BANNED IN BELMONT?
Why doent La Roche conduct a DNA test of the Janke Tree – startin gwith exhuming the bones in their insukting grave in Redwood City?
FLASH! At 6:00 AM I found this arial view of the Genetech complex. Governor McDougal had a plan to drain marsh areas, and make new land. Carl Janke bought land from McDougal. I think we are looking at it. I believe we are looking at……

Fritz Hoffmann-La Roche, later Fritz Hoffmann-von der Mühll (24 October 1868 – 18 April 1920), was a Swiss businessman who founded the pharmaceutical company F. Hoffmann-LaRoche & Co.
Marriages and children
On 2 May 1895, Hoffmann married Adèle La Roche (1876–1938). It was a common practice in Switzerland for married couples to hyphenate the name to incorporate both surnames, so from this point he was often referred to as Fritz Hoffmann-La Roche.
Genentech was founded in 1976, becoming a member of the Roche Group in 2009.
Genentech is a leading biotechnology company dedicated to pursuing groundbreaking science to discover and develop medicines for people with serious and life-threatening diseases. Its transformational discoveries include the first targeted antibody for cancer and the first medicine for primary progressive multiple sclerosis.
The organisation’s headquarters are located in South San Francisco, USA. It has over 2,400 employees.
Since our founding over 125 years ago, Roche has grown into one of the world’s largest biotech companies, as well as a leading provider of in-vitro diagnostics and a global supplier of transformative innovative solutions across major disease areas. Our commitment to our people, partners, stakeholders and, most importantly, our patients remains as strong as it was on the first day of our journey
Rougemont Family Templars Worshipped at Fontenotte and owned the Shroud of Turin.
The First Preceptor of La Fontenotte
My mother’s maiden name has been traced to Rougemont who appear to have ties to the Windsors, thus much of the royalty of Europe. I am sharing this discovery with Robert Sinclair, and Ben Toney, who may be related to the Robert de Ros who lived in Belvoir castle that belonged to the House of Toney.
Because the world is going mad, and in order to strengthen Britain and recreated a European Union co-founded by Denis de Rougemont, I revive the order of Knight Templars, whom the Sinclairs are now tied via Anges de Toney.
Alexandre, and Francois de Rougemont are buried with Knight Templars as Til-Chatel. Gui 1er de Rougemont married Etinnette de Ruffey. Here are the Seigneur de Til-Chatel. Guy 2 de Rougemont Thibaut V de Rougemont 1306-1333 Guillaume de Rougemont Humbert de Rougemont married Alix Neufchatel Aymon 2 (Aimon) de Rougemont married Guillemette de Ray daughter of Othon de La Roche, owner of the Shroud of Turin. Thibaut V1 de Rougemont father of Catherine de Rougemont who married Jean de Neufchatel the son of Margarita de Castro e Souza from who the Windsors descend.
The fifth son of Guy II of Rougemont and Guillemette de Coublant, Etienne de Rougemont was lord of Pichanges. In December 1265, having recalled the donations made to the temple by Aimon IV and Guy II, he gave to the Templars, with the agreement of his elder brother, Jean, Lord of Rougemont, the right of pasturage on his lands of Pichanges and Spoy. He died in 1271 and was buried before the altar in the chapel of Fontenotte and conferring his Templar rank of Preceptor (priest-templar).
After the death of Etienne, Jean de Til-Chatel had to confirm in 1274 the rights of the Templars over Fontenotte. In 1278 his younger brother, Guy, who had been curate of Til-Chatel in 1242 then archdeacon of Le Tonnerois in the church of Langres, succeeded him at the head of the lordship of Pichanges.
In May, 1274, Jean de Rougemont, Marshal of Burgundy legally recorded “for the repose of his soul and that of his elder brother, Etienne de Rougemont, who lies in the cemetery of the said Temple, and of the souls of his forebears”, granted to Henri de Dole, Commander of the House of Fontenotte:”
I have found a Hughes/Hue de Rougemont who a “grand maître du Temple”in two accounts, and the maître du Temple of Burgundy in another.This Hugues appears to be related to Humbert de Villersexel who wasthe Lord of Rougemont and Til-Chatel. Is this the Hughes that preceeded Bernard de Tramelay/Dramelay? Did this Hugues come after Bernard. In the Fromond/Dramelay genealogy we find a line of De La Roches, and thus the Rougemonts are kin to another Templar Grand Master, Amaury de La Roche.
“Bernard de Tramelay (died August 16, 1153) was the fourth Grand
Master of the Knights Templar. He was born in the castle of Tramelay near Saint-Claude in the Jura. According to Du Cange, he succeeded a certain Hugues as Master of the Temple, although this Hugues is otherwise unknown. He was elected Grand Master in June of 1151, after the abdication of Everard des Barres, who had returned to France following the Second Crusade.et”
“Hugues de Rougemont, grand maître du Temple””and Hugues de Rougemont, large main of the Temple”
Humbert de Rougemont owned the Shroud of Turin. Humbert is a Hue name and is kin to at least two Templar Grandmasters. Humbert was also the Lord of Villersexel. He married the great granddaughter Geoffrey de Charnay a Templar Grand Master. This is to say this Knights Templar family, and thus the Knights Templars, owned and protected the Shroud of Turin that they may have seized at Ascalon along with a great treasure which would account for the large number of castle owned by this very large Templar family. Never has such a constellation of Knights Templars gathered in one place, under one roof as they did come Sunday in Fontenotte. Amaury and Othon de La Roche brought Jacque de Molay into the Templar Order, the last Grand Master. Amaury disappears from history, it alleged he was in keeping of the Templar Treasure. Did he go to Holland where the Roesmont live, they members of the Swan Brethren and Masters of Janskirk church?
“The legend says that it manages to escape and disparaitre definitively at the same time as the Treasury and the secrecies of Templiers.”
My search for my ancestor, Sergeant Rougemont, has led me to a Templar family that was invisible. Sergeant was a Templar rank, a title for a mayor of the Sungau, and a Seneschal. I have no direct evident Sergeant Rougemont was kin to these Lords of Rougemont – as yet!
“I have three separate pages for Rosamond families we believe are descended from a Sergeant Rosamond, a Huguenot who left France in 1685 at the Revocation of the Edict of Nantes, and fought in the Battle of the Boyne in Ireland in 1689. We have not yet been able to definitively tie these three families together, but each family was independently aware of the story of Sergeant Rosamond and claimed him as an ancestor. We are hoping that as research continues we will find records showing us the relationship between our families.”

June 1418: The widowed Margaret de Charny marries Humbert of Villersexel, Count de la Roche, Lord of St.Hippolyte sur Doubs.”Humbert de Villersexel is Humbert de Rougemont.
“1208 – Pons de la Roche presents to Amadeus de Tramelay, Archbishop of Besançon, the Shroud that his son Othon de la Roche, Latin Duke of Athens, had sent him from Constantinople.”Aymon 2 de Rougemont was the Seigneur of Villersexel. He married Guillemette de Ray, the daughter of Othon 2 de la Roche.Othon 1 de la Roche (-before 1161) had a son named Pons de la Roche the Seigneur de Ray. He first married Marguerite Tilchatel who may be a Rougemont who came to own Til-Chatel. Guillaume, Gui, Humbert4, Gui 2, and Thibaut 6 were Seigneurs of Til-Chatel. Othon then married Pontia de Rougemont/de Dramelay the daughter of Thiebaud 2 de Rougemont. They has three children. Humbert, Thiebaud, and Sibylle de la Roche. This union makes the Shroud the Rougemont family icon, or relic.Jon PrescoCopyright 2006

Our town is situated on two major roads.
On the one hand the RN74 which incorporates the historic route of the Via Agrippa at the time
Roman connecting the Northeast and Southern Europe for two millennia, and,
from the A31 and its ramifications for the crossing of the continent in 48 hours.
Moreover, the railway ROTTERDAM-MARSEILLE, the county road 959
and airfield VAL IS complete these 2-way communications.
The Til-Châtel blazon
This location will not fail to arouse
the interests of companies wishing to set up this site
qualified strategic management by groups
important. The town has also been
many requests about it. For these reasons the
Covati retained under its statutes achievement
an economic zone under our Local Plan
Urban Planning (PLU) on an area of about one hundred hectares.
This area is located north-west of Til-Chatel near the
toll and highway district. The feasibility study concluded that the
relevance of the project, especially since several companies had already
expressed interest in this site.
The creation of this area, through the jobs and services it will generate,
undoubtedly represents a decisive step for the economic development and

Heritage
1- Origin
The village, located on the road between Agrippa Langres (Andemantuno) and Chalon
(Cabillione) is mentioned on the Peutinger map in the year 230 AD under the
Filena name on the Tille River.
Historians believe it was probably a locality with
great importance, at least strategically, Dijon (Divio) are being mentioned.
Father Vignier who had consulted the texts of Claudian wrote over 17 °
century there existed during the Roman occupation a location named Motte
Ronde, located in the lower village constituting a Castrum along the way
Agrippa, which allowed to monitor both the river and the road.
It was bordered by Aval street, the Coupé street and alley in the Reculée.
The excavations that were carried out in this scope have enabled updating of
many relics, statues, tombstones and coins dating from the time of
the Roman occupation.
At the time, a channel of 2 meters wide and 1.5 deep to do
sail boats flat bottom connected the bridge over the Tille to a place called Ogne,
located between Til-Châtel and Lux where excavations in the years 1980-1992
have confirmed the existence of a complex of buildings occupying a
9 hectare site around which could be, according to René who Goguey
directed the excavations, a set of warehouses linked to river navigation which were
grouped grains from Bassigny for feeding of Rome.
Later, around the year 264 is the martyrdom of Saint Florent patron of the church
town. Father Roussel said that the invaders from the north of Europe,
controlled Chrocus, after ravaging Langres and massacred Saint Didier
bishop of that city, stopped at Tilae castrum (Castrum ad Tillam) as
then called the village.
There they met a Christian named Florent, son of the governor of the Castrum they
took prisoner and who they wanted to recant his faith. When he refused they
beheaded with a plow. His head rolled in the range where the Tille
aware she was driven to the island Barbe on the Saône near Lyon where she was
preserved in the Church of St. Martin. As for Florent his relics on display in
the church are at the origin of many miracles. Ogne and Castrum were destroyed
during an invasion after the year 400.
Around the year 407, the kingdom of Burgundy is created by Gondicaire, barbarian chief
Christian came from beyond the Rhine that ended the Roman occupation.
It is not known what is happening in the village until the year 801. At that time
depended on the Bishop of Langres Betto, who that year, concedes church
Tilicastro and income to the Augustinians of St. Etienne de Dijon. Since then,
the village name is written according to the mood of the scribes and the language in Latin or
French, Tylicastrum, Trichastel, Trie-Château, Trichâtel, Tilchastel, Tréchâteau and
Finally Til-Châtel in 1860, after being called Mont-sur-Tille for the period
revolutionary.

2- The Lords
Reporting to the Bishop of Langres, they had their origin in a Audon I of Til-Châtel,
son of Garnier count of Troyes in 918 attested by his signature in an act of Duke
Richard Burgundy.
This family, which carried arms as a key pal, paid tribute
also the Dukes of Burgundy and held a high rank among the lords of
duchy and county of Burgundy. Its members succeeded from father to son until
the year 1299 when Isabelle Rochefort, Left Girl Rochefort
lord of Puiset in Beauce, Guy III widow of Til-Châtel Gonfalonier County
Burgundy, became lady of Til-Châtel. She remarried Humbert
Rougemont to 1306 and married his daughter Jeanne she had with Guy III Til-
Rougemont Châtel Thiébaud son from a first marriage of her new husband. The
Lordship then happening in that family until the late 15th century time to
when the last of Rougemont, having no children yielded to the lordship
Antoine Baissey from a family who immediately went Montsaugeonnais

The following expands on this concept and tries to explain how these fields might work in a somewhat simplistic mechanical fashion.
The fabric of space has a null state, or flatness. In this null state, the Universe appears to be an empty void.
The “Big Bang” introduced energy into this void by some mechanism we still don’t understand. This energy is stored as resonances in the nodes of the fabric of Space/Time. These resonances displace the fabric from it’s null state and become visible to us.
All that we experience is caused by the impetus of Space/Time to return it’s null state. Like a displaced rubber band, it is under tension and wants to become “flat”.
Quantum Field Theory is closest to this concept.
To reiterate, my hypothesis requires a resonance between two or more fields.
The Electric Field
Consider the electron, which displaces the electric field in the negative direction, and the positron in the positive direction.
How does Space/Time deal with this?
The electric field between two like charges returns to the null state by pushing the particles apart. Even though the displacements persist, the field between them flattens out
The opposite is easier to understand. Opposite charges are pushed together, cancel out, and the field returns to it’s null state by annihilation, commonly resulting in the creation of two photons.
Gravity
Particles that resonate with the gravitational field give them “mass”. This is incompletely described by the Higgs Field:
But no one has detected an anti-grav particle, so all massive particles displace the gravitational field in the same direction. If my hypothesis is consistent, gravity must also be a repelling force as depicted above.
This posits that the gravitational fields are returning to the null state by pushing massive particles into piles. This hypotheses is supported by the Dark Energy Theory which argues that the Universe is being pushed apart at an increasing rate. It also implies that Space/Time itself is not expanding, only the particles.
But how does the impetus for Space/Time to push matter into piles overcome the forces that want to push the piles apart. According to the inverse square law the closer, the stronger, geometrically.
One reason might be that there is a lot more space than matter, and the impetus to flatten out overwhelms the impetus of the piles to disperse
Another reason might be a second order effect such as the curvature of Space/Time caused by the accumulative displacement by the resonances in the gravitational field nodes. So Einstein and Newton may both be right. There is a gravitational field, but the curvature of Space/Time dominates.
There is also evidence in the math. The reason that the gravitational constant is so much less than the electric or magnetic constants in the field equations is that the sum of all forces just barely favors the concentration of matter. These equations are only mathematical models, not laws.
This may also provide a clue to the puzzle of Dark Matter. Galaxies do not not behave as theorized. There is not enough visible matter to account for the observed motion. Perhaps the reason is that galaxies are pushed together rather than pulled together.
The Strong and Weak Forces
I do not rule out the existence of the Strong and Weak forces, or even the concept that more than three dimensions of Space/Time may be required to accommodate them. My limited understanding of them is that they play no role in the practical Physics we use in our everyday lives, as do do the other three fields, so I invoke Occam’s Razor. They seem to be somewhat of a mathematical construct in order to make our current models work.
I think that their functions are inherent in the simple model outlined above. In order to flatten itself out, Space/Time pushes massive particles into piles. This works well in the case of electric field displacement. The opposite charges of protons and electrons are sequestered inside the little pile that is the atom and the bulk of Space/Time becomes electrically neutral or flat.
The complexity of building atoms larger than hydrogen is beyond the scope of this paper. However, there is a parallel between the ability to get protons to overcome their tendency to repel one another and cuddle up inside the nucleus, and the ability to get the massive particles described above to concentrate into high densities.
The Magnetic Field
I believe that the Magnetic Field exists because it does manifest itself in our everyday lives. However, not much is said about it other than it is so integrated into our existence that we refer to it as the “electromagnetic force” as described in Maxwell’s equations. It appears to exist as closed loops, so Space/Time is probably not a simple 3D Euclidean model as depicted above. I do not yet have any concepts as to the role this field plays in the shaping of Space/Time.
Quantum Entanglement.
In the above example of the annihilation of an electron and a positron, two photons are created. Energy is conserved by simply changing the resonance mode. There are other possible resonance modes.
Since the electron and positron were resonating in the same electric field it is probable that the photons are too; thus the photons may be entangled. Remember that this electric field is part of the fabric of Space/Time and extends to infinity. Photons are limited to the speed of light because they are resonances between the electric and magnetic fields as they jump from node to node in the fabric of Space/Time; but if Quantum Mechanics is correct, information can be exchanged between the photons instantaneously because they are connected by the fabric of Space/Time.
Here is a link that describes a method to achieve instant communication using quantum entanglement.
Why have we not detected any other intelligent life? Are we alone?
Perhaps we are among the first intelligent life forms to arise because we evolved on a lucky planet.
There are many reasons why earth can be considered a lucky planet. From it’s stability, because of it’s location in both the solar system and the galaxy, to the optimal conditions for life water provides. But I want to focus on a not so optimal condition that may define earth as the lucky planet.
Scientists have detected periodic mass extinctions in the fossil record.
The best insurance policy for the survival of the Human Race are permanent off-world colonies. The first one should be in earth orbit. The following discusses the advantages and addresses the problems of this approach.
Immediate and cost effective solution.
All of the pieces are now in place from the private sector. The International Space Station can be retasked to be the kernel of a modularly expanding colony. Bigelow Aerospace has modules in production and is testing a module currently attached to the ISS. This colony can be easily supported from earth with private sector spacecraft currently in operation.
Revenues
This colony could generate revenues by functioning as a tourist hotel and space port. Space shuttles can be assembled here for exploring the solar system, asteroid mining, establishing farther out colonies, etc. These shuttles can be as large as needed since they don’t land on planets. They can carry landers if required.
Zero-G
The biggest argument against such a colony is bone loss and other health problems due to zero-G. I discount this argument because life evolved in the oceans. Training in pools is the closest astronauts can get to zero-G on earth. Whales may suffocate when beached, but in the ocean, their bones and organs are just fine. We should be able to adapt as well as they did.
However, permanent space colonists must commit to never living on a planet. They will never again have to plod around under the tyranny of gravity. In zero-G people can essentially fly. Unneeded feet can evolve into hands (What does God need with feet? Are we really made in His image?) Life could actually be better.
Yes, they will forever be dependent upon technology. But naturalists don’t understand how dependant and vulnerable we are on this one of a kind jewel of a planet. It can be gone in a heartbeat. We must expand our horizons as soon as possible.
If it turns out zero-G is not feasible, we should be able to figure it out long before these colonists are unable to re-adapt to a gravity well.
Self Sufficiency
A priority will be to become self-reliant as soon as possible. This will be the best insurance policy for the survival of the human race. It will be absolutely necessary for remote colonies and can be developed at low risk here.
Shielding
The advantage of a low earth orbit colony is that it gets sufficient shielding from earth’s magnetosphere. However, the “day” is rather short with a sunrise every 90 minutes . A geosynchronous orbit, or spacecraft will require artificial shielding. I propose a magnet field generator at the center of the structure.
The Benefits of a Magnetic Field
A strong magnetic field will require quite a bit of power, but can have benefits in addition to shielding. If it is AC or even pulsating DC, it can be used to distribute power to devices throughout the habitat without wiring. Pickup coils will transform an AC magnetic field into local current.
One device can be a motility belt that will works against the magnet field and propel the wearer throughput the structure, or enable station keeping. It may be possible to design the belt to use the field like an induction motor; requiring no local power source.
So the ideal habitat will have very large open spaces (simply bubbles) where the occupants can fly around in at will. This is infinity cheaper than O’Neill ships, that are massive and must withstand the enormous forces created by rotation in order to generate artificial gravity (no one living today will ever see one). Generational Starships
These habitats can be used as starships . All that is required is a propulsion source. I propose the sun. We use a Dyson swarm to collimate a large light beam to Alpha Centauri, using reflectors, or lasers if necessary. It should have a solar flux density roughly equal to that which illuminates Earth. This will provide all of the energy required for the journey. The habitats will use this “light bridge” to sail to the next star. It may take 100,000 years, but stay at homes will simply orbit the sun for that same time period. This light bridge should be miles in diameter in order to support a flotilla of spacecraft and all of the asteroids and comets that will be sent along for raw materials. Only light sails are required to these masses.
The one problem with this is that local inhabitants must maintain the bridge for the required length of time or. at least, not interfere with the robots built to maintain it. Assuming, of course that no other energy source is developed during that time.
Another argument is why try to colonize the next star with such low tech. In 1000 years we will develop warp drive and zoom past them. Maybe, but they can be picked up along the way. But then again what difference does it make whether you are spinning in circles around a star or on a linear trajectory between them. The habitat is your home.
This journey can be shortened significantly if the habitats can be decelerated in order to achieve orbit around the star. There is a danger of traveling so fast that the habitats cannot be captured by the star. If robots can be sent to the destination star ahead of time, they can build a bridge that can decelerate the habitats. This will be a more reliable energy source since it can’t be interfered with by Terran politics. This opens the door for gravity lovers. A strong enough solar flux density can accelerate the habitats at one-G and then at mid point decelerate them at one-G. Sorry, but I can’t do the math to come up with actual numbers for the journey to Alpha Centauri. However, since they will probably prefer to remain in their habitats while orbiting the star, they will be back to zero-G.
We colonized the Earth with sails. No one suggested to wait until we invent jets.
For those of you who can’t conceive of a space habitat as comfortable as earth, you forget about the storms, hurricanes, tornadoes , fires, floods, earthquakes, etc. that we have had to deal with for the past 100,000 years.
Search for Intelligent Life
If some other intelligence in our galaxy is using light bridges for this purpose, we should be able to detect them. This will confirm both their presence and the viability of this approach. Start looking.
One reason we haven’t seen aliens yet may be that intelligence life simply colonizes space. Living in zero-G may have advantages which includes lots of room for expansion. They may have little interest in gravity wells. All you need is a star for energy… if that.
So why aren’t they orbiting our star and mining our asteroids? Perhaps there is no rush to spread your seed throughout the galaxy. Just doing it is sufficient.
This document outlines a technology that is intended to provide a permanent solution to the disposal of high-level nuclear waste. It has as a second objective a method to create revenues by generating electricity from this waste. The following topics are presented:
· The permanent disposal of high-level nuclear waste.
· Generating electricity from high-level nuclear waste.
· Generating electricity from nuclear fusion.
· The permanent disposal of low-level nuclear waste.
History
Several years ago Scientific America reported that Lawrence Livermore Laboratories proposed to develop a device that could be used to more accurately measure the yield of a thermonuclear warhead. This device is a vessel that can contain the detonation of an H-bomb. The detonation would heat the box and thus, the energy released could be measured. It is basically a giant calorimeter. If such a device could be built, then the objectives delineated above are feasible.
This document will propose how this devise, hereafter called the “Box”, can be used to economically solve the nuclear waste problem.
The Permanent disposal of High Level Nuclear Waste
The reason for proposing such a strong and massive device as the Box is, of course, for safety reasons. The Box must permanently and safely contain high-level nuclear waste for thousands of years. It must be able to withstand all possible scenarios for such high concentrations of waste, such as small explosions or meltdowns. Although it may be possible to engineer a smaller and weaker version of the Box to achieve these goals, a Box that can safely contain the detonation of a full-scale thermonuclear warhead can expand the scope of the project. This will be discussed later.
The primary objectives for this approach are:
· Permanent disposal of high-level nuclear waste.
· Safety: No possible way for this waste to find it’s way into the environment. Whatever goes into the Box, stays in the Box.
· Cost: Although this Box is expensive, billions of dollars have already been spent with no permanent solution in sight.
Generating electricity from high level nuclear waste
The problem (and advantage) with concentrating high-level nuclear waste is the heat that can build up in the Box. If enough heat is produced, then electricity can be generated from the Box. Coolant pipes can be placed in the walls of the Box to extract the heat. See figure 1. It may be possible to find the right ratio (mass of the Box) to (mass of the waste) to generate electricity for thousands of years. If this is true then the Box will pay for itself well before it’s lifetime.
For safety reasons it would be wise to design the Box to withstand this heat build up with no active cooling.
If enough heat cannot be produced from concentrated high-level nuclear waste to generate electricity, at least the disposal problem is solved. However, there is a solution for this situation.
Figure 1
Electricity generated from concentrated high-level nuclear waste
Generating Electricity from nuclear fusion
The Box can be the first practical online fusion reactor if it is strong enough to safely contain a thermonuclear detonation. There is a large stockpile of warheads to be disposed of. Since tritium and deuterium have a limited shelf life, it may be more economical to extract the energy with the Box than any other method.
This can be used in conjunction with nuclear waste to periodically add energy to the Box if the waste does not produce enough energy of it’s own. The radioactive byproducts will remain in the Box and add to residual energy production.
Disposing of low-level nuclear waste.
The Box can be used for the disposal of low-level nuclear waste if a filter can be designed to extract the radioactive elements from the gases that must be vented from the Box. The radioactive material will be thrown back into the Box. This is high risk and requires advanced technology.
Summary
This document outlines a low-tech solution to many of the nuclear waste problems our country faces. The technical problems and considerations that arise to implement this technology are not discussed. It is the goal of this document to foment such a discussion.
If the following is true, then faster than light communication is feasible.
1. Quantum entangled photons are emitted pairs, or structures.
2. Any change in one will instantaneously affect the other, no matter what the distance between them. For this design, the change will be annihilation. One theory states that simply measuring one photon will collapse the wave front. Reflection or absorbsion should also work.
An emission source is required. It would be fortunate if a star would suffice.
The transmitter can be any distance from the emitter, the receiver on the opposite side must be slightly farther away. Let’s say they are both 10 light years away from the emitter.
The receiver is measuring the photons issuing from the emitter. 10 years ago, two sets of entangled photons left the emitter. They arrive at the transmitter first, who then annihilates enough photons to be detected by the receiver. The receiver measures the change in flux density immediately after they were annihilated by the transmitter.
Thusly, an instantaneous digital data stream can be established over a distance of 20 light years, delayed only by how much farther away from the emitter the receiver is than the transmitter.
The advantage of using a star is that they have been emitting photons for millions of years. All that is required is that the receiver be able measure the change in flux density created by the transmitter. Only annihilated entangled photons will be useful. They don’t have to be on opposite sides of the star, just preferably equidistant from it.
SETI hunters might want to look to see if an alien intelligence is modulating a star in order to communicate. I would start with the hydrogen spectral line, but maybe a broad spectrum works better.
If a star is impractical, then a laser emitter should work. If annihilation is impractical, any method that will allow a receiver to measure a statistical change will do.
My weakness in mathematics prevents my being a physicist, but it interests me greatly. In trying to make sense of the current state of physics, I have come to view the Universe much differently than most. Allow me to present a hypothesis that the universe is composed of a fabric of fields. it further proposes that what we observe as particles, or “strings” are merely resonances in this fabric. What follows is a simple 3D model of how this universe might function.
A particle
A particle can be defined as a point in free space. A point can be defined as the intersection of three orthogonal planes: electric field, magnetic field, and gravitational field. A particle is a resonance between these fields at this point or “node”, There must be a resonance mode to account for every unique particle in the Standard Model. In its null state, this node appears as empty space. A resonance at a node displaces one or more of the 3 fields from its null state and becomes “visible” to the universe. Since these fields extend to infinity, a displacement at a node pushes or pulls at every other node in the universe according to the inverse square law.
Below is a snapshot from Brian Greene’s The Fabric of the Cosmos. Envision an infinite number of parallel electric field planes, orthogonal to those an infinite number of parallel magnetic field planes and orthogonal to both an infinite number of parallel gravitational field planes. Particles can exist only where these planes intersect: the nodes illustrated by the intersection of three lines. It is not likely that space is organized in such a simple 3D pattern, but let’s keep it simple for now.
The 4 episodes of The Fabric of the Cosmos
Quantum Mechanics
Particles appear to be fairly stable once they come into existence (conservation of energy). This allows them to jump from one node to another in order to move about. This may account for the quantum effect that perplex so many physicists.
The Photon
The Photon may be a simple example. It is a resonance mode primarily between the electric and magnetic field planes. First transferring its energy into the electric field plane and then the magnetic field plane 90 degrees out of phase as it jumps from node to node at the speed of light.
The Electron
The electron appears to be a resonance between the electric and gravitational field planes. This gives it “mass”. The resonance seems to be DC, if such a thing is possible. The static displacement of these fields, described as a point source interact with all other particles similarly displacing these fields in accordance to the inverse square law.
Gravity
This hypothesis is not inconsistent with Einsteins General Theory of Relativity which asserts that particles with mass bend space. The difference with my hypothesis is that these particles are not independent of space, but simply resonances that displace the gravity field plain from it’s null state. This displacement falls off in accordance to inverse square law.
Field Equations
Newton’s Law of Gravity posited that it was a force field that pulled matter toward each other. Einstein’s theory of curved space is more robust and favored by physicists. But no one has come up with similar alternative explanations for the magnetic and electric force fields, so the concept of force fields are still with us. They are remarkably similar.
This is the “inverse square law” cited above. The force diminishes with the square of the distance between them.
But how does an electron generate an electric field that reaches to infinity and interacts with every other subatomic particle in the universe? One theory is that photons act as intermediaries. That’s a lot of photons. We don’t see them.
My hypothesis is that particles are connected by the fabric of space itself, it is not that different except for the concept that there are no independent particles at all.
Dark Matter and Dark Energy
The Electron may give us a clue about Dark Energy. Particles that displace the electric field planes in like manner are pushed apart. The nodes of Space/Time don’t move, the resonances are moved to other nodes because they are connected by the fabric.
Similarly, particles that displace the gravitational field planes in like manner are drawn together. We just don’t understand all of the possible resonance modes, or the mechanism by which particles influence each other.
Resonance
Resonance is a common phenomena in our universe. It occurs in both mechanical and electrical systems, and is remarkably similar in both. An electronic tank circuit uses a capacitor and an inductor to store energy using magnetic and electric fields. Theoretically, it could continue forever if not for losses in this system at room temperature. All it needs is to be excited with energy.
It is easy for me to see how the fabric of the universe can act as a tank circuit. As in the photon, which is alternating current, or AC.
An electron appears to be direct current or DC. It doesn’t appear to oscillate. It stores it’s energy like a capacitor and statically displaces the electric and gravity field planes. However, it can move from node to node and when it does, it displaces the magnetic field plane, so I choose to call it a resonance mode as well.
This is consistent with String Theory which says that all particles are vibrating strings. Note the use of the word resonating. The quality of a musical instrument depends on resonance.
I believe that the strings are the fabric of the universe itself.
String Theory
For your convenience the three episodes of “The Elegant Universe” are linked below. I have never worked with String equations. The episodes don’t explain how vibrating strings generate the electric and magnetic fields that our technology is based on. However, I believe that integrating String Theory into the Fabric of space will bring us closer to the truth.
The laws of Physics.
We don’t have any true laws of physics because we really don’t know what the universe is.
What we have are very powerful mathematical models that predict the behavior of the universe to some very high degree of accuracy. This is a very good thing because it gives us the power to predict the future, and it proves to me, at least, that these laws do exist.
However, I think we will be stuck with these models for a very long time because the true laws of physics work only at the subatomic level. To use them at the macro level, we must know the state of every subatomic particle in the universe at some particular instant in time and then calculate how they influence every other particle. This may never be possible.

Why have we not detected any other intelligent life? Are we alone?
Perhaps we are among the first intelligent life forms to arise because we evolved on a lucky planet.
There are many reasons why earth can be considered a lucky planet. From it’s stability, because of it’s location in both the solar system and the galaxy, to the optimal conditions for life water provides. But I want to focus on a not so optimal condition that may define earth as the lucky planet.
