Boyd Bushman had NOTHING to do with Roswell. He wasn't there, didn't serve there. In my view he's a major disinformation tool and that's ALL.
He talked in the interview with David Sereda about the Roswell craft being shot down. Specifically, Sereda asked him if they shot it down and he replied in the affirmative. He didn't mention if it was a "lazor" or not. I think he said it was a radar or microwave that disrupted the propulsion/antigravity field of the UFO. He talks about "very, very complex mathematics" but doesn't say what it is or what it's for other than some vague talk about describing an ellipse for centrifugal force with binomial equations to express gravity. He's trying to outmath the listener and anyone with any higher math at all realizes that he's talking in circles. It's utter nonsense. Rubbish. And I quote:
"You can handle kinetic energy, you can handle potential energy, you can handle the weak nuclear force, you can handle the strong nuclear force, you can handle the electrical force, you can handle the gravity force, the magnetic force, and then, continuing on, there are at least 7 other forces that we have yet to name. And as you work with the binomial expansion" and then goes on to explain that galaxies are being pushed apart by "negative gravity".
Please. What a bunch of utter tripe. How do you know what they are if they have yet to be named? The coriolis force, the expression being The vector formula for the magnitude and direction? The Coriolis acceleration is:
vec a_C = -2 , vec omega times vec v
where (here and below) vec v is the velocity of the particle in the rotating system, and vec omega is the angular velocity vector (which has magnitude equal to the rotation rate and is directed along the axis of rotation) of the rotating system. The equation may be multiplied by the mass of the relevant object to produce the Coriolis force:
vec F_C = -2 , m , vec omega times vec v
A fictitious force, also called a pseudo force or d'Alembert force, is an apparent force that acts on all masses in a non-inertial frame of reference such as a rotating reference frame. The force F does not arise from any physical interaction, but rather from the acceleration a of the non-inertial reference frame itself. Due to Newton's second law F = ma, fictitious forces are always proportional to the mass m being acted upon.
Put Boyd Bushman in a room with Brian Greene and he'll laugh him out of the room. "We're trying to talk to nature now." Yuck.
He was a senior scientist with Lockheed-Martin Skunkworks. While working for them he developed 27 patents involving electrogravitics, that represent the cutting edge of the government's R&D into antigravity. That's it. Aside from that he mentions the Hutchison effect. And Tesla coils. Real advanced stuff. The stuff that Bushman describes levitates a few inches. Nothing new there. He's never shown anything, no photos, no film, just talk. He's no better or worse than Greer, Lear, Burisch, etc.
Until Bushman wants to do more than talk, I'm ready to shelve the whole deal.
Now, since Roswell, the government _has_ shot down UFOs with particle beam weapons (see Lost Was the Key and Unlocking Alien Closets by Leah A. Haley. You'll get a lot more and better information in just those 2 books about what's really happened than in a thousand interviews with Boyd Bushman.
By the way, Bushman believes that the UFOs in Gulf Breeze were NOT alien spacecraft, but military prototypes. He also backs up Bob Lazar's "stable plateau" from element 114-118 bit that flies in the face of conventional chemistry. Then he backs off and calls those isotopes "semi-stable". These things last for a nanosecond, that's one millionth of a second. You can't take stuff out of a particle accelerator home in a 15-pound bag. It's because it's unusual and contrary to science that people fall for Bushman's story. Don't get sucked into these theories without some shred of evidence, that's all they are, theories.
He even admits to working on a cover story and being involved in disinformation.
Look, Boyd Bushman got David Sereda excited by using this MathSpeak that Sereda himself doesn't understand because he has no grasp of higher mathematics. Then Sereda tries to get the viewer excited about new energies and technology that will get us off the Earth, since it's so horribly polluted that we have to get off instead of practicing harm reduction and saving the planet, and go to the Andromeda galaxy.
Why do we have to go to a different galaxy? I'll tell you why--the name Andromeda sells books and DVDs. There's no reason we can't just go to an extra-solar planet.
Just to put this to bed, if you want to go to the source, you can email Bushman at
[email protected] (he claims that's his address... you really think a senior scientist from Lockheed Martin uses AOL?) and put questions to him yourself. Go ahead, no really, ask him anything. Tell him I sent you. Best wishes. Make sure and ask him what he meant by "I wonder if there's life after birth".
Is anybody ready to call it case closed on this guy and post about something new, important or different? He's not worth spending time on, and he's certainly not worth wasting as a guest on the Paracast. But go ahead, let's get it over with and get somebody worth actually talking to on the program, which in my view is probably the MOST important paranormal broadcast taking place right now. Let's move on to somebody really important, that isn't just gabbing his yob.
Come on, people, you're smarter than this! Don't get taken in by this B-movie psuedoscience!
