The ZERO/REDUCED-Gravity Chamber described below has obvious 
potential applications for Chemistry, Biology, Biophysics, 
Biochemistry, Medical Research, etc., allowing experiments which 
now can be done ONLY on the Space Shuttle or Station, AT GREAT 
EXPENSE ! 

                    Gravity-NEUTRALIZING Air/Spacecraft
                      or ZERO/REDUCED-Gravity Chamber

               NASA should build an experimental spacecraft based 
          on U.S. Patent #3,626,605, titled "METHOD AND APPARATUS 
          FOR GENERATING A SECONDARY GRAVITATIONAL FORCE FIELD", 
          awarded to Inventor Henry W. Wallace on Dec. 14, 1971.  
          [$3.00 per complete copy from U.S. Patent Office, 2021 
          Jefferson Davis Hwy., Arlington, VA  22202; correct 7-
          digit patent number required.  Or try getting it via 
          your local public or university library's inter-library

               In the patent, Figs. 7A and 7B are basically side 
          views of a gravity-NEUTRALIZING FLYING SAUCER, or, if 
          anchored to the ground, a ZERO-GRAVITY CHAMBER [which 
          could have MANY possible GROUND-level applications for 
          science, medicine, manufacturing, etc.].  Each oval 
          diagram shows a motor spinning a central disc at a very 
          high speed, about 28,000 RPM, and also rotating two 
          other discs sandwiched around the first disc, via gears, 
          at a much slower speed, perhaps 2,800 RPM, in the 
          opposite direction.  The two outer discs have extensions 
          [counter-balanced via off-center axis] that, as they 
          rotate, alternately make contact with two wide 
          extensions from opposite walls of the spacecraft.  The 
          central disc should have shallow spiral-shaped grooves 
          on both sides for air-bearings, to allow the needed very 
          close contact with the two outer discs. 
    
               I should clarify that each of the two outer discs 
          has ONLY ONE [counter-balanced] extension, each one 
          pointed opposite (180 degrees) the extension of the 
          other disc. 
    
               VERY CLOSE CONTACT must be made as the disc 
          extensions slide past the wall extensions in order to 
          conduct the "Kinemassic" Energy (term coined by the 
          Inventor) from the discs to the walls in an ALTERNATING 
          CIRCULATION. 
    
               The most important factor making it work is that 
          the discs, extensions, and outer walls of the spacecraft 
          MUST be made of any material(s) in which a very large 
          majority of the atoms are of isotopes having "HALF-
          INTEGRAL ATOMIC SPINS", such as copper (3/2).  All other 
          parts, etc., should have a minority of such atoms.  [See 
          the appropriate column of the table of isotopes in the 
          latest edition of "The Handbook of Chemistry and 
          Physics."] 
    
               Experimenters should use one motor to spin the 
          center disc [Start small, such as only one or two feet 
          in diameter.], and a 2ND SEPARATE motor to rotate the 
          two outer discs, so their relative speeds can be varied 
          to establish the needed conditions for PROPULSION of the 
          spacecraft via "NEGATIVE WEIGHT" (with the spacecraft's 
          "Kinemassic" field seemingly PUSHING AGAINST the earth's 
          gravitational field, etc.). 
    
               If we have to put up a space station, establish 
          Moon bases, go to Mars, rendezvous with comets, etc., 
          WHY DO IT THE HARD WAY?! 
    
               Your favorite university or research company could 
          make a BIG NAME for itself by making a small model of 
          this work.
