- Some clips of tests with a fiber optic coil. Cheap, low grade plastic fiber wound as a pancake seems to influence the weight of metallic discs. Vertically we see weight change, horizontally thrust.
I think the technical writers of Star Trek were onto something with the 'warp coil' s' infused with plasma - plasmas emit light and all kinds of EM energy.

This video is just a snapshot of many of these kinds of experiments I have done. I can't show everything in TH-cam videos, nor do I expect to satisfy the rigorous requirements of every viewer. For new viewers, this has been a long journey so please reference my previous videos for more context. I may post an update soon with a better set up, taking into account your criticisms, but yall have to be nicer 😉
I admire your tenacity 🙂!
Mount the laser rigidly pointing directly at the cable entrance, and use a remote trigger so the device is not disturbed by the mass of your arm.
With that wacky cantilever, touching the table would make the weight change. I'm guessing you're just pulling our legs.
I also tried this with a metal ruler cantilever, and my hand a couple feet away, same results.
Can you do a control experiment without the disk and the fibers, and just wave your hands around? Shine some light on the wood without the test rig and show how the scale changes. Do quick movements cause a breeze that gives the large-fast shifts?
I will do that. The proximity of my hand has some influence, but I also saw results standing a couple feet away pointing lasers into the coil
granite table top on three rubber feet.
proper glass fibre.
a decent mount for the laser.
simple balance beam, a thin rigid bar and pointer.
shouldnt even need a pointer, expect an oscillation if there is in fact any effect, as it simply moves out of the (now fixed solid) laser beam... but whatever, a pointer is nice.
covered.
Good points, I will try to accommodate thanks.
@@failforwardresearch3127 i could go on, teh obvious being polarisation and wavelengths... power...
but yeah. improve the set-up for repeatability and a conclusive result first... its interesting. work on it...
And your arm touching the wooden platform that the scales and the platform are sitting on. Bending it slightly in the middle changing the height.
So go somewhere that has more accurate scales and do it with device directly on top of scales. Remove complexity.
yes
Although it looks like there was contact, there wasn't. I have also seen results a couple feet away. There's actually a reason for using the cantilever, basically, there needs to be a distance of seperation from the sensor and the test mass. This makes sense if there is local time dilation/gravity effects.
@@failforwardresearch3127 prove it the correct way then.
Some questions: 1) Is the coil resting on top of the metal or glued somehow? 2) What happens if you remove the metal and if you just leave the coil by itself? 3) What happens if you make a longer coil? 4) What happens if you rotate the coil 180 degrees or if you feed the laser to the other end? 5) What happens if you use a different coil configuration instead of a flat coil? 6) What happens if you use a thicker/thinner fibre? 7) What's the relationship between the weight loss and the laser power? Addressing all these questions will contribute to the understanding of this phenomenon.
that's absolutely brilliant idea! .... you just need a longer cable, because longer the cable bigger the effect.
With a current setup you are only measuring 1/2 of the weight. You need to buy one of these hands with magnetic base on one end and an arm with x2 hinges and clamp. Then you put laser into the clamp and adjust the hand. That way you don't need to struggle with pointing the laser at a cable. What you will achieve with a new setup will be that you can put a bigger cable directly on the scale.
Nope you just need a photonic waveguide have a look at Bryan Kelly's work on photonic craft ;-)
are you by chance warming it up?
The fact that the weight slowly goes back down after removing the laser strongly suggests that this is some sort of thermal effect
Low power lasers, high thermal capacity... unlikely
I would like to see two scales one on each side and see if there is any kind of tuque on the board. And change the angle of the puck and light and see how much that changes also.
Probably an electromagnet under the desk interacting with a magnet hidden in the coil... Would easily generate a few milligrams of repulsive force.
Very interesting. So what do you propose is happening here? Light inducing gravity? Does the direction of the light thru the fiberoptic coil cause opposite weight effects?
Possible case
1) laser make heat, warm air rise up, affecting on weight,
2) laser split charges with photo-effect, charge produce force
3) you arms affect on air movement
1) Perhaps why it takes time to "relax". Spacetime distortion would be immediate.
This is very interesting, but you have way, way, too many variables at play here. I would love to see this experiment redesigned to remove some or most of those variables, as close as you can without a controlled clean room and presession equipment. Still, it's interesting that you are seeing anything at all and that it does seem to change behavior based on differences in the material and mass makeup of the "pucks"
I've got a sneaking suspicion that this is, unfortunately, a function of the material your fiber coil is resting upon soaking heat from the laser warming the surrounding air and/or the fiber coil.
Copper's ability to soak and subsequently dissipate heat is much different than steel which tends to hold heat longer...explaining why the bounces toward zero were significantly slower with the steel.
I want to be wrong, for the record....
I think your wrong 😉 reason being, I have seen the same kind of results using a laser line well above the mass. So the heat thing is neither here nor there.
I think this is very convincing! We definitely need to try to find out how to amplify this effect!
1) yes
2) nothing
3) I don't know. That was the length they came
4) my understanding is that the whole top surface of the mass should be covered with light
5) idk. I don't believe the coil geometry is itself important but what is important is covering the whole surface area with light
6) I don't know, but probably a thinner fiber with more turns would work better
7) I haven't been able to quantify yet the power to weight loss relationship with lasers, with halogen bulbs - more power means faster response but not greater amplitude!
Good questions...
This feels like a temperature effect. The "relaxation" time and the fact that it takes longer for a larger, denser material is a giveaway.
I doing some electrostatic stuff that at may be of interest to you. The weight loss was over half at one point, -12 grams. But mostly 5 to 7. Most of the time it's positive, its weird.
Keep at it. Electrostatics is promising but tricky to work with
Why the very conveluted experimental set up?
If the was a thing, wouldn't you achieve the same effect by placed the cable and disc directly on to the scale on a very hard stable flat level surface?
My scale has a 200g limit. And also, for temporal/gravitational effects there should be a physical seperation from the sensor load cell
@@failforwardresearch3127Thank you for your reply and explanation.
Have you done any control tests without the fibre optic cable and disc or both? 👍😉
Thank you for sharing, keep up the good work!
You should conduct this experiment in the vacuum, probably its air being displaced because of microvariations in temperature
Localized micro variations in the air ONLY around the coil?
@@ThisSideUp12 that's possible, air could get hotter around the coil only , the material on which it seats is also metallic
Right...and copper moves heat faster than steel....explaining the different zeroing speeds.
In another recent video I demoed weight loss with a 5mW laser line above like in this video. This implies there is an effect independent of any air heating nearby.
@@failforwardresearch3127 Man, if this is real, you should deserve the nobel prize
would love to see this done with the laser in a steady position, not your hands, and with a blue laser as well to see if the wavelength of light has any effects on the weight loss. also would like to see what would happen with a pulsed laser vs sine wave. VERY interesting experiment, good show
Stay tuned... Will try to address these things
So you're saying the copper puck is lifting up towards the fiber optic cable due to an electromagnetic effect?
Multiple experimenters including myself have observed masses moving towards sources of light or radiation
@@failforwardresearch3127 maybe dielectric acceleration. heat/cold pressure mediation governs the universe
Bro, why not do it a little bit more scientifically by putting the disk on a pressure sensor and graphing the change in weight over time when the light is on, vs when the light is off. That would be very compelling.
Also the piece of flexible wood could move with temperature or bend over time. Maybe a stiff plastic or carbon fiber would be better.
I've done that sort of thing a lot, you can see my other videos, but yes, you are right
Bravo Bro!
Make a Rodin Coil with the Fiber Optic Cable that have Washers with 12 or 14 holes and weave the cable in a chinese finger trap.
very interesting
Set this up on a proper optical bench with properly designed measuring setup and that weight change will magically disappear.
We'll see about that. Help me out by explaining exactly what you mean by proper... And will you then watch the results?
@@failforwardresearch3127 An optical bench is an extremely rigid table specially designed for optical experiments. Normally fitted with rails to hold optical components so they can e aligned precisely. The entire setup for the experiment would need to be properly mounted to allow the experiment to be conducted without you touching any of it.
Engage....
Engaged.... :ø)
Well, isn't that something....
You're right about the "Kindergarten" ... Your experimental method is very kindergarten.
You need a solid granite or glass surface and it needs to be run in an enclosed chamber untouchable from the outside. It's quite possible that you just a have a fan blowing on the bottom of the wooden ruler lifthing it up.
More likely is you have an electromagnet under the table which is interacting with a sold magnet hidden in the coil on the ruler.
Am I close?
Hell, someone could be moving your scales with fishwire... Need a full view of the lab and equipment and need to see uncut footage of the installation.
You need a 3rd party who knows their science, like Veritassium, PSB Science, Styro pyro or Sabine Hossenfelder to watch you.
To say that I find your methodology completely kindergarten would be fairly accurate.
Not having it.
I believe in this experiment, I listen to alot of ufo encounters and fiber optic coils was in one of the stories. However, please use a stronger table on concrete and something more solid than that scissor lift.
What makes you believe this? Can you explain ANYTHING that this man is proposing?
@@graxxor usually in science explanations come after observations, often accidental ones. The reality is, there is still a lot of science to be done, and the BS of 'they' know everything already is not so. In this case, our observations are an observable change in weight. Cause and effect. What I have done here, is an innovation based on other published experimental work from 10 years ago, and hundreds of hours of my own experiments.
Are you joking?
Do a proper setup inside a controlled environment like a fish tank to disable airflow. Build a proper setup and mounted component with remote triggering. Jeez man.
That's quite a nice trick. I'm sure you'll get many takers. Shame about those pesky laws of physics. 🤣 1/10000g scales 😱
"Kindergarten" stuff like this now will take us interstellar later.
Keep up the good work! 👍🏻
LOL
