New launch with a few new engines from our supplier. Skidmark (sparky motors) and an NBT (New blue thunder) Altitudes were 5780 and 7,100ft. A couple of the rockets disintegrated in the air due to the extreme forces of sudden acceleration. A video is being processed showing a spectacular (...

I have a little update on my Bicron Surveyor.. I have a new (mint condition) :D Harshaw 2"x2" inline NaI/Tl scintillation detector incoming that is spectroscopy grade. It will have a 14pin socket with a 120Mohm dynode string for low current operation. I'll post a picture of it when it gets...

Here is a video for those of you like like Samurai, ninja and soccer all rolled into one. Tokuda-san does Nisshin. WOJRzOd89lE And on a surfboard, skateboard .... cJjqZwJ4NdA

Not sure this was posted yet here or not. If you haven't seen this, may I present to you Heilung ( Nordic shamanistic style music) Enjoy... This is a really interesting music/performance group. - You might even want to become a viking after this and go head hunting.... h1BsKIP4uYM...

I see 2 side of this. But first i'd like to address the argument made about the flow of illegal firearms in Canada (in defining illegal I am meaning though the drug trade) the legal sources quoted by the RCMP is BS used to justify their agenda of persecuting law abiding firearms owners. I...

We'll have to see about the guiness books. It really depends how many more launches we can do before launching season comes to a close. I've got a few more videos to post of other launches from earlier this week I'll post them as soon as I get them. Some larger engines on their way too.

New video showing our new video with a G125M (M for metal storm) The idea here is to try and smash a new speed record for a G-Powered rocket. This 200g rocket hit a maximum speed of 1478.9Km/hr (M1.23) at hit an altitude of 1.67Km. ~30g's were exerted on the body tube. Many of the other...

yes, generally speaking. You can still develop film with the x-rays made by Carl Willis in the Crookes tube demo.... but of course that pales in comparison to what could be made with a large hospital sized tube where X-ray photon potential energy is around 80KeV (normally) -100KeV Peak The...

Not all of the stunguns/tazers work in this manner. Some larger units use a voltage multiplier (cascade circuit), having taken a few apart. They are all most certainly HVDC (pulsed). A cascade circuit will most certainly work for driving an X-ray tube. Surprisingly it takes little current...

Yes, actually that would work. On average those Stun Guns deliver about anywhere from 11-50/60Kv at peak (higher kV on of those air tasers btw) if you have a lower powered tube you could indeed generate some x-rays, though it probably would be a pulsed (strobing output). experiments done...

ah, actually if you are working with X-rays an ion chamber survey meter going to be more accurate and is a better idea. A GM detector will quickly saturate with x-rays use in radiography unless you can afford a high range tube (doubtful). I guess I don't have to tell you then, but X-rays are...

DQvYTI1h5Ag The Linac Coherent Light Source at SLAC is the world's most powerful X-ray laser. X-ray laser require a LINAC ( a large linear accelerator) to create their pulses. Not going to happen in a handheld device.

There is a real dissidence growing in DPRK that survives by selling (covertly) radios that have been altered to pick up ROK / Anti-regime propaganda or even the Christian (alt) right from nearby border AM broadcasts. There is I believe/ as well as others, there is a major rift inside the...

A record set in the UK at a private school for a rocket guided by a metal zip line. The record stands at just shy of 1100Km/hr. The other record is for our rockets. As far as we're concerned we just need to get the guiness book out to measure/verify our usual flights. As far as we know...

We're going for a speed record with the new propellant. Got some metal storm and new redline propellant to try out. Going to try and get press out for that. :evil: There will be more as things unfold here in the next month.

We now have new launches scheduled for the first week of March with new propellant. Stay tuned.

To second this, not only is it against terms of service as ZRaffletickt suggests you are held liable for anything illegal being done with the service. It is also an easy way for someone to get in between secure transactions, decode them or get enough information to compromise your identity. If...

Here are some other covers by Leo. I really like these. hcQyFtHMfbs?list=RDWekfTZpX8Mk WekfTZpX8Mk?list=RDWekfTZpX8Mk J6BV0aE4FEk

A major new update on this ongoing project. I installed the YoctoPMW-Rx module into the Bicron Surveyor MS and wired it for 2 channels. So this little board does CPM/CPS/Pulse duration and duty cycle all at the same time and sends it over a network connection to be remotely graphed or graphed...

I'd love to hear your stuff. Jimmy page and Jeff beck are both awesome. I especially like Jeff Backs playing. One on my all time favorite guitar players, Takahiro Matsumoto also played with Jeff beck a few years ago, live in Tokyo. I'd love to have seen that.
