DARPA will test jet packs and jet suit technology and see if they are military use case ready. The gear must fly a single operator at least 3.1 miles at low-to-medium altitudes. The setup should take no more than 10 minutes, with only minimal tools. UK based, Gravity Industries, will try to compete in the …
Adam Savage had made 3D printed titanium iron man armor. He proved it is bullet proof up to 45 caliber bullets and bombproof against a stick of C4 from about 1-meter distance. It is also able to fly using the Gravity Industries flight system. The titanium suit costs about $325,000. Adding the flight suit increases …
Richard Browning flew almost one mile to an island using a winged jet suit.
Richard Browning spoke at SU Global Summit 2018 and demoed the Gravity Jet Suit twice this week in the SF bay area. * they have made flying the Jet Suit far easier to fly. There is adjustment of the thrust so that as fuel is used and the flyer is getting lighter the thrust is …
GoFly, a Boeing-sponsored competition announced today, wants to turn jetpacks from an aviation novelty to an everyday tool. To do that, it’s inviting people from around the world to enter a two-year contest, with $2 million total in prizes, for the creation of a personal flying device that can carry an individual 20 miles without …
A group of researchers in Japan and China identified the requirements for the development of new types of extremely low power consumption electric devices by studying Cr-doped (Sb, Bi)2Te3 thin films. At extremely low temperatures, an electric current flows around the edge of the film without energy loss, and under no external magnetic field. This …
ARCA Space Corporation announced today that it has created ArcaBoard. For the first time in history, every person will be able to fly whenever they want, wherever they want. ArcaBoard represents the first revolutionary breakthrough in motion since the the bicycle, automobile and airplane. ArcaBoard, an electric powered flying machine with 272 horsepower and 203,000 …
Physicists have found a radical new way confine electromagnetic energy without it leaking away, akin to throwing a pebble into a pond with no splash The theory could have broad ranging applications from explaining dark matter to combating energy losses in future technologies. However, it appears to contradict a fundamental tenet of electrodynamics, that accelerated …
Stored Chemical Energy Power Systems (SCEPS) have been used in U.S. Navy torpedoes for decades. NASA has given Michael Paul of Pennsylvania State University a phase 2 NIAC funding. SCEPS works by combustion, just like when you burn natural gas, says Michael Paul, except in this case the fuel is lithium. The technology is not …
