Paranormal Novice
I read a lot. I see what is presented. I notice what is never mentioned. Consider research categories: genetic research, nuclear research, medical research...etc. What has been missing for the past 40 years?

MAGNETIC research. Without a doubt, research into INTENSE magnetic fields is never in popular media. Nor have I found much of anything looking deeper using the internet.

I've tried to bring this up with the few engineers I know, and they shy away from the subject. Seems people know they should not even THINK about something that is not present in societies of knowledge if it is absent....because POWERFUL interests have made it absent. Nobody wants to be disappeared.

Guys, find a guest who can shed light on this gaping hole in application of science. An entire FORCE of the universe is a freaking secret (almost like they made knowledge of electricity a secret....it's that extreme!).

What do YOU think, reader of this post?

The man that did make a difference in the field had his entire life made transparent. Telsa made strides that we only dream about today in the magnetic field of study. All you have to do is look and see where that got him.
 
Magnets I think are the closest things to magic we have in our strange little world. However, its not well known that Maxwell's equations and theories about Electromagnetism were, lets say, simplified for the masses by Heaviside ... so what people learn today about electromagnetism isn't the whole story. I think Tesla understood this since he was playing around with longitudinal waves which are not covered in the accepted theories about electromagnetism.

The ICP song "Miracles" is one of the most wonderful examples of how you don't need to have a working brain to be famous. If you don't know what I'm talking about, look it up on youtube. However, beware that it is both offensive in language (although I swear a lot, so it doesn't bother me) and more so in intellect.

As soon as I saw "ICP" I had to laugh.

Magnetics are a field of study that is ever evolving. MRI technology for instance has seen intense study for years and has benefitted in leaps and bounds because of it. Metal based spintronics are all the rage in computer research and development (lookup GMR{Giant Magnetoresistence} and TMR{Tunnel Magnetoresistence} technology ) these days and for the last 20 years. (although the Plastic spintronic device from Ohio State is showing promise)

Not to mention things like the NHMFL (National High Magnetic Field Laboratory) or MME(Magnetic Molecular Energizer ) technology or the introduction of an entire field of study in micormagnetics. I would say that if anyone believes magnetics are not being studied with results, you need to understand that the thing you are using right now to read this is essentially proof that this thesis is wrong.

I was just reminded that we also have maglev technology.

I'm also reminded of the electromagnetic propulsion submarine prototypes from the mid 1960's. There is a great deal to be said about this type of drive, as it uses no moving parts. However as a propulsion system back then it was very inefficient.

Surely there have been advances both in efficiency and design in 40+ years. But you are correct, it is difficult to find any published reports that have substance and credibility.
 
Magneto Hydrodynamics has been studied as a propulsion system....aspects of it have been examined with flying devices to offset weight and minimize g loads in experimental aircraft.... Google Magneto Hydrodynamics Aircraft

</cite>Magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) (magnetofluiddynamics or hydromagnetics) is the academic discipline which studies the dynamics of electrically conducting fluids. Examples of such fluids include plasmas, liquid metals, and salt water. The word magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) is derived from magneto- meaning magnetic field, and hydro- meaning liquid, and -dynamics meaning movement. The field of MHD was initiated by Hannes Alfvén<sup id="cite_ref-0" class="reference">[1]</sup>, for which he received the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1970.
The idea of MHD is that magnetic fields can induce currents in a moving conductive fluid, which create forces on the fluid, and also change the magnetic field itself. The set of equations which describe MHD are a combination of the Navier-Stokes equations of fluid dynamics and Maxwell's equations of electromagnetism. These differential equations have to be solved simultaneously, either analytically or numerically. MHD is a continuum theory and as such it cannot treat kinetic phenomena, i.e. those in which the existence of discrete particles or of a non-thermal velocities distribution are important.<sup class="Template-Fact" title="This claim needs references to reliable sources from February 2009" style="white-space: nowrap;">[citation needed]</sup>
