Things that go BOOM - John Nuckolls Inertial Confinement Fusion

Video Transcript

# Things that go BOOM - John Nuckolls Inertial Confinement Fusion Carl Sean could not have predicted 2021, but he did see it coming. He wrote the following back in 1995, and we quote, "I have a foreboating of an America in my children's or grandchildren's time. When the United States is a service and information economy. When nearly all the manufacturing industries have slipped away to other countries. When awesome technological powers are in the hands of a very few and no one representing the public interest [music] can even grasp the issues. When the people have lost the ability to set their own agendas [music] or knowledgeably question those in authority. When clutching our crystals and nervously consulting our horoscopes, [music] our critical faculties in decline. Unable to distinguish between what feels good and [music] what's true, we slide almost without noticing back into superstition and darkness. The dumbing down of America is most evident in the slow [music] decay of substantive content and the enormously influential media. The 30-second sound bites now down to 10 [music] seconds or less. lowest common denominator programming, credulous presentations on pseudocience and [music] superstition, but especially a kind of celebration of ignorance. Roll that [music] around for a while. Those were among his final published words. He died 10 months later. Here we are 25 years later realizing [music] just what >> powerful. This country is very powerful. It's far more powerful than people understand. We have weaponry that nobody has any idea what it is. And it is the most powerful weapons in the world that we have. More powerful than anybody even not even close. >> Malaysian 370 contact 120 decimal 9. Good night. >> What's up guys? 60 minutes. >> News tonight. A Malaysia Airlines flight with [music] 239 people on board, including four Americans, has gone missing. [music] Oh, [music] [music] [singing] [music] I remembered the line from the Hindu [music] scripture, the Bhagavad Gita. Vishnu is trying to [music] persuade the prince that he should do his [music] duty and to impress him takes on [music] his multi-armed form and says, "Now I am become death, the destroyer of worlds. [music] Oh, well, hi there. I'm your host, Ashton Forbes. How are you guys doing? Just kidding. It's Dark Ashton. And look, I've got my dog here, Lulu, that I keep there with a shock collar that I shock anytime she moves away, guys. Hey guys, happy Monday. Hope you guys are having a good one. Guys, today we are talking about nuclear weapons. As you heard the big news that Trump has restarted nuclear weapons and you were nuclear weapons testing and you just heard he went on 60 Minutes and tried to explain to the idiots of 60 Minutes why we needed to do that, why we needed to test nuclear weapons. Well, tonight we're going to learn about why what nuclear weapons are. We're going to learn from the guy himself, John Knuckles. John Knuckles, who helped develop clean thermonuclear weapons, guys. Clean thermonuclear weapons. Okay guys, right off the bat, I am now Ashton the demon for orbs, chat. That is my new nickname. Ashton the demon. I'm coming for that technology. I'm coming for that booty. We're going to steal all the technologies that are out there. At this point, I'm still surprised that people doubt me. They doubt me. And shout out hat tip to Ian Carol who decided to give me the moniker of the demon. Um, don't get in my way, chat, because I'm gonna get that technology no matter what happens. I like you and I want you. We can do this the easy way or we can do this the hard way. Okay, that's what I have to say about your free energy technologies, your autonic fusion reactors, your propulsion systems, your super powerful lasers, your wormhole producers, your thermonuclear weapons, all of it. And we're also going to take those free energy microchips, too. who want some of that as well. If you have not listened to my most recent interview with Tommy's podcast, check it out, guys. Talk about the implications of these thermonuclear weapons, AI, the development of the these AI platforms and what will happen to humanity in the future. So, listen to those. Also, two more quick shout outs. Gonna talk to Salvatore Py and uh Dave Rossi and Jason Georgiani all this week. So, we got a lot of big uh collaborations coming up, guys. If you still doubt me, we just did a live stream on Friday about the thermoptor. That's the new name for it. It's already been designated the thermoptor by Extropic. And just yesterday, Elon Musk replied to them, said, "You have a working thermoper?" and they said, "Yes, we'll show you a demo." So, we've already probably missed our investment opportunity because now they probably don't need our investment anymore. They just got literally Elon Musk interested in the thermuttor. I don't know how people are still doubting me. I don't know how people are still doubting me. Literally have not missed on the technology yet. Have not missed on any of the technologies yet. I think the biggest miss was thinking that thinking that magnetic motors were the future. That was that was me thinking regressively for a brief moment and now realizing no, we're talking about microchips that are measuring the ether. Of course they're using Joseph and junctions. Of course they are. Uh we're talking about free energy microchips. We're talking about autonic fusion that doesn't produce radiation, doesn't produce heat. That's the level we should have been thinking on. That's the disclosure that's happening right now. Um, okay. I want to I don't want to spend too much time on political update stuff, but there's a lot of big topics. I was planning a full live stream to talk about Dan Farah going on Bill Maher to talk about aliens and stupid and age of disclosure. But instead of doing that, we're just going to play one short clip and I'll maybe do a followup later on. I I wrote all these notes around talk about it. So, at some point in the future, we're going to talk about aliens and physics related to alien stuff and disclosure, but it's just so stupid that we're just going to watch just this one clip and I'll just react to this. >> Things have changed a lot. I mean, again, I'm old enough to remember when it was like it was just the cooks who thought about this. And I just want to say I think if you don't think this is happening now, I'm not sure who the cook is, but I don't think it's me. Uh I really don't. It it used to be crazy people or people out in the middle of nowhere who got anally probed and all that kind [laughter] and now it's and now it's I mean it's not just the military people and the defense department people but everybody it's a it's you did a great service with this room because you put it all together and you see all these people not just Rubio it's bipartisan you see Schumer and Adam Schiff and lot senators and very very serious people the people with the buzz buzzcuts. in the military [laughter] talking about this and saying the kind of things that that just cannot be explained. Things have changed a lot. I mean, >> okay, so [clears throat] I watched this interview of Dan Farah on uh Bill Maher and and also by the way, the reason why guys I'm not yelling in and an actual true dark Ashton character is because Lulu's right there and I do not want to disturb her. This is like a literal miracle that she's like sitting there like this. I'm telling you guys, got the secret uh shocker. So, here's the things. I'm just going to sum it up for you. First of all, he calls them UAP. Anybody who calls them UAP, just get out. Get out. I'm not listening to anybody talk about aliens that says the letters UAP. That's just some The moment you're trying to redefine terms, you stand for everything I'm against. I'm I'm I hate that how they redefine terms. how we've turned plasmoids into field reverse configurations. We've turned cold fusion into Leoner into all these other names. Like you you turn just call it what it is. It's UFOs. It was always UFOs and it's going to still be UFOs forever. It's going to be UFOs forever. Um he calls it anti-gravity which shows that Dan Farah doesn't really know what he's talking about. Like anybody that's really in the weeds on the science of anti-gravity technology or gravity, you're not calling it anti-gravity because you start to realize that it's just a misunderstanding of the universe that space isn't empty and that we're in a medium. So it's not like we're calling it anti-gravity because it's not like gravity is this magical force that's pulling on us all the time. Gravity is just like our interpretation of this extra dimension that we're in. So if we can manipulate this, then we can cause propulsion to occur. And so I think the people that are smart, they'll call it gravitational manipulation because it's not as simple as just anti-gravity. But at the same time, gravity is just a pressure force. It's just pressure force. They also call um it's transmedium. They're transmedium because the plasma manipulation of gravity doesn't care about the medium because it's like a medium beyond the medium that we perceive. It's the underlying framework of reality. It's spaceime itself. This is how they can achieve hyper velo hypersonic velocities um is they use a plasma sheath. Plasma is the big secret to all of this. Plasma is nuclear physics. And so there's a connection to UFOs. They they do get the UFO people get this stuff right, including Dan Farah, when they say that there's this connection between UFOs and nuclear weapons. Yeah. They're one in the same thing. We are seeing the nuclear weapons. When we see plasma orbs flying around, those are almost certainly our nonfishing triggers in our in our pl in our thermonuclear weapons. In fact, we're going to go over that in just a few minutes here. Um, here's the question. They said, "This is a serious issue. People are taking this seriously now," which they absolutely are. Marco Rubio. They they somehow convinced Marco Rubio to go on this movie and give it some sense of credibility. U because everybody else is just basically a leftwing deepstage stoogge who's in this movie. Um but here's the thing. What is the issue? People need to push back. Is that Bill Maher in that clip there? This is a serious issue. What is What's the serious issue? Are the lobster people coming out from the ocean depths? When are we gonna see one? When when does this become a serious issue for anybody in the real world? And what is it? Is it that it's aliens? Is it the technology? Like people need to be specific about what the issue is. Just saying there's something out there and we don't know. If that's the case, then you don't know if it's a serious issue or not. You don't know if it's a serious issue if you have literally nothing to go on. Why is it a serious issue? That's how people that's why what people should be pushing back with. And when I replied on Twitter, that's how I replied. I said, "First, define to me what the issue is." Because the reason why I say this is the military knows what these things are. You have to be so naive to think that the military doesn't know what UFOs are flying around and what they are, or at least have a really good idea of what they are. Really good idea of what they are. What I'll say is that stock is rising. Stock is rising on the idea that UFOs are us from the future. That's probably the weirdest answer of every of all the possibilities, but stock is actually rising on that front because when we are talking about manipulating spaceime, we're literally talking about manipulating time. And even though I don't personally believe that we can go back in time based on my current understanding of physics, I'm willing to believe that I don't know it all. The whole reason why we're in this mess to begin with is we thought we understood everything about the universe and turns out we don't understand a major aspect of it. So for me to be like, yes, I know we can't go back in time. That's also probably pretty preemptive. We're pretty damn primitive at this point. Maybe we can eventually start sending signals back in time. Maybe it does create multiple timelines and we don't perceive those multiple timelines. So the stock is rising on the future human hypothesis. Stock is rising heavily on that front. Um, and stock is falling actually on teleportation. Although I still think it's teleportation in the MH370 videos, I do think that the stock is rising a little bit on the annihilation aspect because [snorts] what we're going to see here in a few minutes is we're going to dig through John Knuckles own writings of his own biography of his own history in inertial confinement fusion. his own history in inertial confinement fusion and it's definitely we're definitely looking at a thermonuclear weapon in the MH370 videos. The question is what is it doing to the plane? Is the plane literally going somewhere else? Is it being spat out spat out in a million different pieces? Is it being vaporized? That's the ultimate question of what's happening to it. Um, and then the last bit on the UFO stuff, actually, we just kind of went through all of it here. Um, we would have no chance against an alien race that has, let's just call it, zero point energy technology to keep it simple, right? The difference between the aliens that have the zero point energy technology and humans is like the difference between a person fighting a blind person, a a person of full capability fighting fighting a blind person. They're missing one of their senses. Unless you're Daredevil, you have no chance. We're missing one of our senses. The sense that we are missing is the ether, is the extra dimension. They can communicate through an extra dimension faster than the speed of light relativistically. You can't compete with that. They can make things disappear. You can't compete with somebody that understands an extra dimension that you don't perceive. They can instantly appear and be invisible and do a lot of things that we would think to be magic if that's the case. Sorry, that was not quite the last one. This is the last one. Is that what technology came from the UFOs? If there is technology came from the UFOs and I this stock is falling heavily on UFO explanation. It's not it'll never be out of the realm of possibility but it's falling heavily because I think you can build a very specific pattern of technological advancement that leads to what we saw in the MH370 videos without evoking aliens at all, without evoking any aliens whatsoever. The more you demystify the MH370 videos, the more obvious it becomes that this is our own secret weapons technology that's at least parallel with nuclear weapons if not totally entwined with nuclear weapons. So what kind of what kind of technologies can How about everything if if they did transistors, microchips, what I imagine would have happened if we found alien technology. This is how it would have gone down. Go ahead and get ready to clip this. We find some alien technology. What we find is like a piece of a craft. We find this piece of a craft. It looks like a piece of metal, but it's shaped. And you go, "Well, that doesn't look like a natural shape." So the next thing we do is we take it and we look at it under a microscope. We look at it under a microscope and we see something weird. When we go to look at the surface of this material, it's organized. It's in a pattern. It's in this very specific pattern all the way around. We don't understand why it's in a pattern, but when we look at it on the tiniest scales, we're seeing patterns along the surface of this material. And we go, "Wait a minute. There's no way this is random. There's no way this is a geological formation that made these microscopic patterns along this material. And we realize that somebody must have produced this. Something must have produced this. And then what we would have realized from that is, oh, we can do this. We can make microchips that are at the atomic scale or at least close to it. Not yet, but we will be able to get to that point. And then it's just a matter of scaling that up. But you would realize there's no way there's no human capability at the time when we would discover that. Like let's say Roswell was real in 1947. 1947 we didn't have the lithography to produce something let alone a whole craft covered in that level of material manufacturing. That's what I would have imagined reverse engineering would look like. It's not that you just find the bug sphere like you guys are think I think the bug sphere is by the way guys. The bogus sphere has got these hieroglyphics on it and what have you. No, that's not what you're looking for. What you'd want to be looking for is you look at the surface of an object like that and you look at it under a microscope and then you see the pattern like when you would look at a microchip, what that would look like, you're like, "Wait a minute, that doesn't look like a random surface pattern. That looks like something designed that." Why? Because the tiniest scales are where we begin to interact with a zero point energy and that's how we build microchips. And what do you guys think microchips are? It's just it's just certain elements put onto a very specific pattern on the very tiniest scales and then scaling that up. Okay, I spoke on that too long. I want to get to some of the other stuff. Um where is it? So, speaking of that threeey atlas, I'm not even gonna I don't think I'm going to play the clip. Let me go back to this. Do I have a clip? I don't know. Like, I guess I'm right again on the Threei Atlas stuff, right guys? Because three Atlas came and went and I I thought October 29th was the day, right? Everybody said October 29th they're gonna gonna see the spaceship land or something. I don't know. I wasn't really paying that much attention to be honest with you guys. Um, but then I heard the rumors. Oh, there's it's accelerate. It changed speeds or something like that. Let me debunk that right now. I'm the best debunker on the planet, guys. I'm not only a future future Pulitzer Prize winner. Also the best debunker on the planet. Even if it hurts your feelings. Three Atlas was just a rock. Ashton was correct. I called it months ago. The change of direction was totally or change of speed was totally natural. It was due to the gravity of the sun or the sun hitting with the light whatever it's not. It didn't significantly change direction and come to a stop like people are saying in their heads. It was just totally natural. Avi was wrong. He was wrong. That's fine. Allowed to be wrong multiple times over. I always think everything's a rock. Um, but I do want to defend Obby real quick because he did get attacked by some guy named uh Tyler, I think it is. And it seems like he went on this guy's podcast thinking it was going to be a different thing or something. And this guy Tyler is like really upset about it and attacking Avi over it. And I interviewed Avi. I don't think there's anything I couldn't even imagine a situation where you could like you would have a weird beef with him, you know, like personal beef. makes no sense to me. Um, so I'm going to go ahead and say that that Tyler guy is is not credible. No one should take what he says at face value ever. Ever. And I say that as somebody where he literally he claimed to have been in touch with a Marvel producer. Maybe he was wrong about that. Maybe he lied about that too because he definitely lied when he made up a story about me. He made up a story about me that was fake. And I just want to say that that's fake. And so therefore, I think Avi deserves grace on this front, even though he's definitely wrong about that space rock, guys. Space rock. It was just a space rock. Don't drink the Kool-Aid. It's not an alien mother ship. But good news is we got stuff that's even better than that. Okay, two more quick things. Um, number one is where is the Candace? Where is the Candace Intelligence Agency? because I didn't even realize all of this. Uh, and I even hate to bring it up, but I just it's I'm only pointing out because of the hypocrisy. I really do not care who Thomas Massie marries or if she's 18 years younger than him or if his wife of 30 years just died or if it only happened like, you know, 14 months ago or if she also died under mysterious circumstances related to influenza or no, respiratory distress and uh what was it? acute basically like acute fatigue. His wife died from respiratory distress and acute fatigue and nobody's asked any questions whatsoever. 16 months later, uh Thomas Massie has undergone a complete and total makeover and is now now just remarried a former Rand Paul staffer who's like 20 years younger than he is. Okay? And guys, I'm not one for conspiracies. That's not my thing, right? Everybody knows that. But I do have to wonder why Candace Owens and Ian Carol and Ryan Mata, the people that love conspiracies, that everything is a Jewish conspiracy, why they have not mentioned at all that this is at all weird. Nobody's answered any questions about her death. It's never been answered. The literally cause of death doesn't make any sense whatsoever. But there's no questions being asked. And I only have to assume this is because he also politically aligns with them on the woke right that they are anti-MAGA. President Trump came out today and issued a really really damning statement which I don't read right now on the air in sake of time but really damning statement against Massie endorsed his opponent as well. So sometimes I have to point out guys that this whole Israel this let's just call it the Israel situation it's being used for political gamesmanship and you're naive if you think that you're you know above it or you think that you're not being used in it. You definitely are. You definitely are. Everybody is basically out there. Um, and on the other side, what I'll say, this is the last political thing to discuss here tonight, is I did see I mean this whole back and forth with Tucker putting on Nick and what have you has been kind of ridiculous if you want if I'm going to be honest. It was pretty cringe when I think it was Representative Fine at this like Republican Jewish convention. They have this whole cringe thing where they go where they put up these signs that say Tucker is not MAGA and like their their whole narrative is Tucker is not MAGA. I'm just like is okay. Like it just seems like a middle school level production. Like I could come up with something like do they still have what do they call those people that like do your propaganda for you? Like if you're in politics, I thought everybody's got like a propaganda person that's like, "Hey, what should our messaging be? What narrative should we push? What propaganda should we push?" I assumed that everybody had one of these people. But it feels like he they don't have one or something. I mean, if they need one, I'm I have a job, but if you if you you know, you offer me the right amount of money, I will help you out because I can definitely come up with better narratives than Tucker is not MAGA. [laughter] That's the most boomer boomer thing I've ever even heard of. If that's how you're going to attack the guy, you should at least just called him a communist. So be like, you're not MAGA. We're putting our foot down. This is like Saturday morning cartoon discs. Like what are we talking about here? So if they need help, guys, 7K is in the chat. I am actually increasing my rate. If other people are getting paid 7K for that for Tucker is not M. That's your big attack. Tucker is not MAGA. Then my rate is at least 21K. At least 21K. At least three times higher than that, chat. Much higher. Anyway, hit me up rep fine if you need some assistance. I'm sure you got the money for it. Okay, we got through all of our politics relatively quickly. So now, now if you made it this far, it's science time. First thing, did I take a Wait, where's my picture? Are you guys ready? I've got yachts planned for you guys. I I'm just too excited. Here we go. Here we go. Unshare that. Reshare this. Look at this. Look at Look at what I have here, chat. Look at what I have here. Let's talk about some nuclear weapons. Um, what is this a photo of? What does anyone know who's in this picture that we're looking at right here? Let me remove this spotlight channel. You can see here that is Colonel John Alexander we have on the left. This is a dinner table with wine. Looks like very nice dinner. On the right we have the goat Hal Pudof, world's leading expert on zero point energy. And who is this in the middle? Who are we looking at between John Alexander and Hal Pudof? That is Edward Teller. That is Edward Teller, father of the hydrogen bomb sitting between a pretty young looking haludaf. This is probably from the 90s or early 2000s and then Colonel Alexander, Colonel John Alexander. So yeah, there you go. I just wanted to show this photo here of Edward Teller sitting next to Hal Pudof because it's pretty wild that people think that I'm out there when I say that there might be a connection between uh fusion and zero point energy or thermonuclear weapons and space-time manipulation. I've actually not seen a single person prop even propose the idea that thermonuclear weapons are causing wormholes or space-time manipulation. If anybody in the chat or in the comments, if you know of people that are saying that, put please put it in my replies so I can look up their stuff because I seem like I'm treading on new ground here and I would love to get find some allies of anybody else that might be kind of doing the same thing. One more. Okay. So, uh let's just say like earlier earlier recently I was searching around for John Knuckles. I'm just going to post this whole thing here. Hold on. I was searching around for John Knuckles and his connection to clean fusion or clean uh thermonuclear weapons. And I ran across this Reddit uh thread here. Ran across this Reddit. You can still see I'm still permanently banned on Reddit. >> [laughter] >> still permanent. They like really they they like just kind of like needle you all the time. And they have this big thing at the top says this account has been permanently banned. Check your inbox for a message where we say that basically we're not going to unban you. We won't give you a reason why you're a racist for calling people mentally ill. Apparently they literally they banned me for being a racist for calling them mentally ill. Okay, they are mentally ill by the way. So on this thread of nuclear weapons, you find this thing and it's got this blog post here. Here. We're going to look at it in just a minute cuz wow. Contributions to the genesis and progress of inertial confinement fusion. John Knuckles. This is from a textbook from 2007. Textbook from 2007. So, I found this. It's amazing. But let me just read through some of this right here. Says some of the replies here. This chapter from a volume on the history of laser fusion is one of the most provocative things I've ever seen published on the development of high efficiency thermonuclear weapons. Notably things like ripple design. It's a firstirhand account by John Knuckles of his experience in both weapons design and inertial confinement fusion. In my read of it, I'm open to the other reads and interpretations. It confirms not just that ICF was derived from weapons concepts, but that weapons concepts were also derived from inertial confinement fusion insights. I don't think it's coincidental that he describes the achievements of Ripple in the same terms as he does his ICF insights. Anyway, he says he figured he'd post this right here. Um, another thing was interesting. These are just some of the comments I thought had some pretty interesting merit to it. Here we go. Says, "Teller Ulam design is very stable and the radiation transport methods seem to dampen instabilities." This is something that we're going to take a look at in a second. But they he John Knuckles in this letter or not even a letter, but in this um document, I don't even know what you would call it, a biography, he says that they've figured out all these plasma instabilities. If they figured them out, why are we still worrying about them? We're going to answer that. We're going to get to that. Um radical high efficiency weapon. So what he points out here is that some of the weapons were already really efficient. Like if you looked at the strength of weapon increase power, they were already going through the roof. So what he's saying here is like if they were making a clean weapon that was on this scale, how are they doing that? How are they pulling that off? How much better can this radical design get than the weapons that were already going off the scales? That's what they're pointing out right there. And yes, this talks about that. Okay. And then let's see the pulse shaping. So let me just skip this. Close this. We'll come back to that. So here's what I learned at a high level. I've read the document and it's essentially everything that we've already known, but it supports all the ideas that we've already pushed, which is symmetry, pulse shaping, waves, resonance. This is how they achieved super efficient thermonuclear weapons. resonance, all the things that Tesla talked about, energy, frequency, vibration. This is how they were able to achieve serefficient thermonuclear weapons. John Knuckles literally describes in this document to such a level of efficiency that he must have either been the person who helped design the weapon that was used on MH370 or he helped pioneer the insights that led to it. That's how insane in my opinion his own words are. Keeping in mind John Knuckles is a a literal uh thermonuclear weapon designer. No and if buts about it. He's a thermonuclear weapon designer that designed many thermonuclear weapons. So he has classifications and NDAs and stuff that he can't talk about. So keep that in mind when you read this. the stuff that you're reading in this book is only the things that he's been allowed to talk about. Only things. And there's a specific line that's been drawn where he's been in rooms with conversations with people and said, "This is what you can talk about. This is what you can't talk about." Really important to realize that. Okay, one more thing here. I'm going to pull this up. I'm gonna fix my camera, too. Oh, wrong one. Uh, how did I find this? I don't even remember how I found this. This is a declassified letter, declassified in part from a foyer request it looks like in 2013 from a letter in 1989. 1989 from John Knuckles to the director of the intelligence community staff, General Edward Hines. Okay, I'm going to read this to you guys. As you know, dear General Hines, as you know, this is John Knuckles speaking. As you know, Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory is one of the two national laboratories charged with the responsibility for design and test of our na nation's nuclear weapons capability. In addition, we have also developed advanced capabilities in the non-nuclear area. Some examples are the induction linac free electron laser. Chat, pause. Chat, pause. [music] [music] Are you uh kidding me right now? [snorts] Are you kidding me right now? In his letter from 1989, he's saying that we also built a free electron laser. By the way, I had never seen this letter 48 hours ago. I had never seen this letter. 48 hours ago, I had never seen this this do this this document that we're looking at here. I think I had seen excerpts of it, but I don't think I'd ever seen this whole document. And I literally was doing live streams about how free electron plasma lasers are how they've been able to achieve this. [snorts] And here you go. That's him saying that was one of the examples in his letter here. He just says right there, "Keep doubting me guys. I'm telling you guys, uh, real estate is filling up quickly and I was right about everything city. Keep doubting." Okay. He says um the other example brilliant pebbles I think that's a SDI initiative is brilliant pebbles and these special isotope separation program in addition to these technology programs we have also dedicated groups of scientists who follow intelligence information on the Soviet Union and other countries these analysts work with all member organizations of the United States intelligence community and produce finished intelligence which is strongly rooted in our understanding of comparable technologies at Lawrence Liverour. I would very much appreciate the opportunity to host a visit to Lawrence Livermore by you and any members of your staff that you may deem appropriate. I believe this could be a very valuable two-way exchange of information. We could show you firsthand some of our current technology programs and we would look forward to hearing of ways that l that laboratory could be of further assistance in the intelligence arena. Okay. And then there you go. John Knuckles, director of the laboratory. Um, is that not weird to anybody else other than me? So, you've got the director of Lawrence Livermore, one of two laboratories that do nuclear weapons testing. Only two laboratories do nuclear weapons testing. And he's the director of one of them. He helped build the clean fusion bomb in the 60s. And there he is asking a general who was in charge of intelligence if they can share information, if they can help the intelligence community out, help them out. How? How would they be able to help out? Here's a thought. What if the way that they were helping out the intelligence community is twofold? One, disinformation. How are we going to control the narrative so that our adversaries do not get this technology? That's number one. Number two, allow them to use the technology in covert operations. You know what's really good for covert operations, chat? You know what people who plan covert operations really love? super secret weapons. James Bond always has Q by his side to hook him up with the new magical technology. That's how I'm looking at this. I might be too conspiratorial on this front, but that's how I'm looking at that. Otherwise, why are you emailing generals who are in the intelligence community? Oh, because you've developed some super weapon, and if we want to dunk on our adversaries, here you go. Go ahead. Here's the magic button to press. Press this button and your enemies go away. I'm PY the pistol. You point me at bad people and pull the trigger, I make them go away. I make bad people go away. Right. Okay. Let's dig into the science now. So he starts off with explaining his background. Let's just read the first paragraph. Inertial confinement fusion has progressed from the detonation of largecale fusion explosions uh initiated by atomic bombs in the early 1950s to final preparations for initiating smallcale fusion explosions with giant lasers. The next major step after ignition will be the development of high performance targets that can be initiated with a much smaller lowerc cost laser. In the 21st century and beyond, inertial confinement fusion's grand challenge is to develop practical power plants that generate lowcost, clean, inexhaustible fusion energy. Wow. Okay, let's start with the answers to the questions. I hate I hate waiting forcing everybody to wait till the end. What I've learned from reading this is that they don't have it all figured out yet. They don't have it all figured out yet. It's starting to make sense what happened. We developed Hbomb. We figured out this unexhaustible source of energy from inertial confinement fusion of the Hbomb, but we didn't figure out how to control it. We We found out how to make a big boom. We found out how to make a big boom with Hiroshima, and then we found out how to make it even bigger. And then we found out how we can make it boom but without all the heat, just a pure ball of electrical energy. So we figure all that out. But then the next question is how do you harness it? When you're trying to harness electricity, you don't make a bomb. It's hard to harness the energy from a bomb. It's not how you do it. You just want to pull a little bit of energy at a time, right? You don't want to make a big explosion and try to pull all of it. we just want a little bit at a time. So what I think happened was they figured out that there there definitely will be unlimited energy because they did the math, they did the physics, they they did the detonation simulations and tests and they confirmed that this aspect of zero point energy exists. That's the reason why Edward Teller was talking to Hal Pudof because he knows something like 0 point energy is real. So they figure that out. But then they need the material science to catch up. They need material science to catch up because the lasers are too big. They're too expensive and they're not powerful enough. Actually, you can if you just want to point it to one thing. There's more than one material science aspect that matters, but lasers are probably the thing that matter the most when it comes to fusion energy. And the lasers were not powerful enough. The lasers. So they made super powerful lasers. The problem is they made the super powerful lasers and they were too expensive. The super powerful lasers were too expensive. What does it matter if you can make a fusion plant if the lasers required cost a billion dollars? If the lasers cost a billion dollars, then your fusion is not going to be comparable to cold. your energy. No, even if you can get over unity, it's not going to be cheaper than alternatives. So, we knew the science and we knew the physics would work, but we didn't have it. It wasn't commercially viable. It wasn't commercially viable. And so, now fast forward and now we're at a point where it's becoming commercially viable. the secrets have leaked out to these various companies that are trying to do fusion and they're all going about it a different way based on the research and based on the the path that people like John Knuckles have put us down because once again what do we know? We know it can work. We generally know how it can work. But now we need to scale it down from a thermonuclear detonation down to something that we can become practical that we can put onto the grid that we can put onto the grid. So that's I think the high level and for me the more I the more I see these images of uh you know these these letters about you know disinformation, misinformation, it really makes me wonder. [laughter] It really makes me wonder if the whole alien thing is just a giant cover. Especially when I see Dan Farah and all these spooks go on Bill Maher and they're talking about this is a very serious thing. We have to take but they're speaking in these vague general generalities. Um you know why why is this a serious issue? And do they know that it's related to nuclear weapons? Are we just are we using this cuz that would be the ultimate cover to prevent our adversaries from taking this technology seriously would be just to convince everybody that it's like it's aliens. It's beings from another dimension. That's what we would do. Okay. So, first thing after he goes through the history here, talks about Teller, Edward Teller, um and then the design. The first design, this is just a very crude approximation. They can't really show it, but the first design of a thermonuclear weapon was you just make a case in case your enase your fusion target next to your bomb and then our bomb is just going to detonate our fusion target because we're going to get this huge amount of energy that's going to be released by our our a bomb and then that the waves are going to hit our fusion bomb and then our fusion bomb's going to detonate. That's all a thermonuclear device is. So, what did they figure out after that? Well, two things. One, we don't need the bomb. We don't need this explosive bomb to trigger our fusion payload. They realize we can do an electric bomb, a nonfish trigger. He talks about that in here. We're going to look at it. And the other thing that they realized is, okay, well, I don't want just the waves. I don't want this bomb over here to just detonate this. I want it to be efficient. How do we make How do we make this a bomb detonating the the fusion bomb? How do we make that efficient? Oh, we go at it from both sides. Now, we put our payload in the middle and we detonate our waves at it from both sides to compress it evenly. We want to compress this this fusion target payload evenly. Get the maximum pressure. So, now it all becomes about geometry. So thermonuclear weapons are all about geometry. How did we get it to be super efficient? We compressed it on entropically. We compressed it equally from all sides. That's what they figured out in these uh that's really honestly what this whole document is basically about. And I put a link to it if you if you doubt or if you have questions. Um feel free to read it for yourself and put your comments in the chat, guys. really interesting stuff here. So talks about largecale power production and how we can uh like what are the challenges in terms of producing going from thermonuclear detonations to making an actual power plant out of it. So it says uh and and the cost related to it. It says down here, this is a really interesting paragraph. Could let me see I'll zoom this in a little bit. Could very small dutyium tridium burning fusion explosions be ignited without an Abomb. Look at this. Look at this right here. Could it be triggered without an Abomb? So this is he's talking now about clean thermonuclear detonation. Fusion bomb without the A bomb. That's non-fishing trigger. That's what he's talking about right there. Non-fishing trigger. In the 1950s, John Foster, fish and weapons design division leader, invited me to attend meetings of his special group focused on how to ignite dutyium tridium fusion explosions without the use of an Abbomb. Physicists Ray Kler, Jim Sheer, and Jim Wilson were members of this group. Kiddler developed useful approximations to the conditions for ignition of small DT mass confined by a pusher. I realized that a few hundred electron volt radiation temperature might suffice to implode and initiate a very small scale fusion secondary. Fusion secondary, the thing we're trying to blow up. Radiation losses into a hologram, which is just a cylinder basically. So whenever you see this hologram word, that's just a cylinder. Losses into the cylinder wall decrease with more than the fourth power of the radiation temperature. With low radiation temperatures, excessive wall losses can be avoided even though the surface to volume ratio increases. So to me, I think he's speaking about how to create a clean fusion weapon. Non-nuclear primary. So here it is right here. Non-nuclear primary indirect drive scheme. Non-nuclear primary. So now we're saying, okay, what did I just say? There's two components to your your thermonuclear weapon. You have your nuclear fishision primary and you have sorry blowing up and then you have your fusion secondary that you're trying to detonate using this bomb to blow up this one. So if you're now saying that we are non-nuclear primary non- nuclear primary beginning in the 1960s I use the weapons program latest radiation implosion and thermonuclear burn codes to explore the feasibility of igniting a DT fusion micro explosion with a tiny radiation implosion. I postulated a non-nuclear primary could be invented to energize a tiny radiation implosion. I imagine several candidates, including a plasma jet, a hypervelocity plet gun, and a pulse charged particle beam. Pause chat. Pause again. [music] Feel like this one might get a lot of use tonight, guys. Might get a lot of use tonight. So there he is connecting the idea of using plasma as your non-fish ignition which is exactly the same thing Friedwart Winterberg said in his 1981 textbook. Non-ficient ignition could be utilized done by a plasma. So now instead of having an Abomb you've got an electric bomb. Plasma acts as an electric bomb that triggers the ignition. So he talks about how to increase the temperature the yield. So the whole goal was to increase the yield as well. And of course, they were speculative about could could a a situation where you're not using an A-bomb, could that actually produce the same amount of yield as a conventional thermonuclear weapon? Now, at the end of the day, the answer was yes. The it was wildly successful. I don't remember where in here he mentions it, but he says that at first they tried out the experiment with Project Ripple. They did the test, it was successful, and then he did a follow-up test. The follow-up test was not successful, but he did a follow-up test to that follow-up test, and that was successful again. And the way he was able to get this all to work, pulse shaping, getting your electric bombs to trigger and compress on the target, symmetrically compress on the target. In fact, he uses the exact words oftent ontropic compression. Now, take a look at this image. Look at it closely. If you're not if you're just listening to this, then what you're looking at here is you're looking at non-nuclear primary pulseed energy source. This is what they call the driver. And so, this is separated from your fusion capsule. And there's a distance says you have a meters of separation. You have standoff. So, you actually have to keep your your fish and trigger away. You have to keep the two things separated. Why? Because they get too close and you might accidentally detonate your bomb. So, why are the orbs at a certain distance from the plane in the MH370 videos? Because they're trying not to blow up the plane too early. Try not to send it to the Nether dimension a little too quickly. Right? I mean, I'm speaking hyperbolically here, guys, but you get my point. So, you can see then if I was trying to create a situation where I'm making my wave super efficient, the only thing I would change about the picture that I'm looking at to my right, which uh just shows us, or my left, however you're looking at me here, is I would add multiple I would add multiple triggers and I would have those triggers be equilaterally shaped around my object. That's the only thing I would do. I literally would turn it into the polyhedral configuration that Fry Winterberg talks about. Equilateral triangle on all sides. Have your target in the middle. That will cause all your waves to focus directly onto the target. The zero point. The zero point. The zero point is any any geometrical system by which everything cancels out right at the middle or amplifies right at the middle. However you want to look at it. It's all just geometry, guys. Okay. So he's trying to increase the gain. So they're trying to increase the gain which is essentially uh let's say it's analogist if not totally equivalent to increasing the coefficient of performance. So the reason why I'm so convinced John Knuckles was right is because his whole objective was to increase how much energy output we're getting out of our our bombs. And he was successful in that. And he was successful in doing that using a nonfish ignition which takes away at least the majority of the neutrons at least the majority of the radiation. So he was successful at producing this and if he's successful at producing that then we should be successful at producing over unity from from fusion from inertial confinement fusion. If he found out a way to make a bomb, then there has to be a way to turn it into conventional energy source as well. Okay. Um, let me skip ahead a little bit. I think this is the next one. So, radiation implosions, megatons to meles. Oh yeah, here we go. The radiation implosion approach excels at small scales because it can be partially controlled the physical process that limit performance. So, do you guys know what these people are doing at Lawrence Liverour? What is John Knuckles? They're making small thermonuclear weapons. Like that's what they're doing. They're building tiny thermonuclear weapons, scaling it down and testing it out and then going, "Okay, this will work at the larger scale now." That's what they do. They just do it on these very, very tiny scales, but eventually they're going to scale it up, right? Um, somewhere right around here. Where is it? [snorts] Where's my next quote here? Sorry. Somewhere it mentions the spherical convergence somewhere coming up here soon. Let me just Google it. Sphere. Uh there it is. Okay. Okay. It was a little bit further down. Here we go. Um [clears throat] to minimize the implosion energy, most of the DT must be nearropically compressed to a high density. I think that's what that says. The Fermy energy of DT compressed 1,000fold is only 1% of the ignition energy. The ignition energy is only 1% of the fusion energy at 30% burnup. Consequently, the fusion energy generated can be 10 to the four times larger than the firmy energy of the compressed DT. The energy can be further increased by igniting a relatively small fraction of the DT mass in a hot spot near the center of the near the center of spherical convergence. Fusion yields can then be amplified by a thermonuclear propagation from the hot spot into a much larger mass of dutyium tridium. Even with 1% efficient implosions, the energetics is extremely favorable chat. Right there, he's basically saying, how do you amplify energy? How do you amplify energy? He's saying the physical processes allow us to amplify energy. If I understood that correctly, 10^ the 4 basic relative to like the rest mass energy, the firmy energy, I think that's what he means there. I could be incorrect, but I definitely understand the overall context is we can increase our efficiency significantly. And how do we do that? We need spherical convergence. Spherical converging on all sides of our fusion payload. So what we got to do is we have to converge on it ontropically meaning exactly the same on all sides. So that right there should be pretty much the nail in the coffin. The MH370 videos are obviously real. Unless a Boeing engineer that's a master of VFX that also knew about the missing plane that also knew about Gorgon Stair and Color Fleer videos also happened to be a nuclear physicist. also happen to be a nuclear physicist and knew that the plasma orb should converge on enttropically directly on the plane, then no doubt we're looking at a thermonuclear weapon. No question, no doubt. The reason why the orbs are converging is ontropically on the plane only one explanation. They are the non fishing trigger in a thermonuclear weapon. Now, it may be some splinter offshoot of conventional thermonuclear weapons. As I spoke with Dr. agre about. They've been using I don't know this for a fact, but I assume it to be true. They've been using nuclear weapons to hide this technology that may have been an offshoot of nuclear weapon research, which is space-time manipulation, what we call gravitational manipulation, but just a clever use of physics. So, the next thing was interesting down here. Um they talk about lasers and this I already spoke about this connection between the nuclear weapon technologies and the laser technologies and how the laser technologies had to get bigger. He says we recognize a coherent laser light could be highly focused into a a heat a small mass of uncompressed dutyium tridium to thermonuclear temperatures. So they knew that lasers might work. We realized that giant lasers might someday drive radiation implosions of milligrams of DT and might be suitable drivers for an ICF power plant. Interestingly enough, one of the new fusion companies, one of the new fusion companies using lowcost lasers to try to ignite dutium uh tridium. So maybe they'll be right. And then you can see here's the pulse shaping. So oh this is what the pulse shaping is. Time and energy. Okay. Yeah, this makes sense. So, pulse shaping is exactly like control of waves. What are you trying to do with pulse shaping? Let me give you another analogy. Imagine you're in a bathtub. Bathtub filled with water and your goal is to get the water to go over the sides of the bathtub. One thing you could do is you could try to take the water out with your hands. But imagine you don't have any hands. You have no hands. You can't pull the water out of the bath. How do you get the water to go over the edge of the bathtub? Everybody naturally knows the answer. You start rocking back and forth. Start rocking back and forth. But you don't rock back and forth randomly. Rock back and forth in the tub in a resonance motion. Just back and forth. Just start rocking back and forth. And what'll happen? The waves will start to build up. And the next thing you know, the waves start splashing over the edge of the bathtub. Right? That's the same concept as thermonuclear weapons. Believe it or not, we are trying to get our waves converge and meet at a point where now they amplify one another in a sense. They may cancel each other, but they may also amplify each other. That's the objective. That's what we're trying to do with our pulse shaping. That's what we're trying to do with ignition to create a superefficient ignition of thermonuclear weapons. I'm actually surprised I haven't learned this before this. I'm surprised I'm the one teaching people this. I'm sure thermonuclear engineers have already done this and weapons designers, but it's surprising that it's not more common knowledge, at least to me. I mean, you can just you're just reading it right here. Read it for yourself if you don't believe me. Um, where is it? Here we go. This is interesting right here. Um, my highly speculative far future. Oh, he talks about a thermonuclear engine. He says in 1961, this is John Knuckles 1961. I proposed to Lawrence Liverour director John Foster that laboratory to explore thermonuclear engine. In a memo, I wrote to John Foster. The idea is to make the fusion analog of the cyclic internal combustion engine. DT or dutarium is burned in a series of tiny contained explosions. A problem is how to implode the dutyium tridium to burn conditions without a pusher. A laser system would be particularly advant advantageous here because the energy could be easily transferred via light from the walls of the chamber to the dutyium tridium to make a pusherless implosion of a droplet of dutium tridium. Calculations show that such an implosion and the subsequent tamperless burn is feasible for a droplet of dutyium titum. Possible applications for this engine are power production or a thermonuclear rocket. Hello. Hello. So he was already pushing. He might been the person who pioneered plasma fusion propulsion. Might be John Knuckles. I mean, can you go further back than 1961 and find anybody referencing? I mean, this is before we even had the concepts of field reverse configuration. That's how long ago this was. I mean, what do people think a thermonuclear rocket is? A rocket that uses fusion reaction. That's a fusion. That's fusion propulsion. And then here's the followup to that. You ready for this? My highly speculative far future thermonuclear engine proposal seemed like science fiction and was illtimed. Livermore was focusing all possible efforts on responding to a high yield Soviet atmospheric nuclear test. Our goals were to eliminate the potentially catastrophic first strike instability in nuclear deterrence and to search for technological surprises. So people were telling John Knuckles that his ideas were science fiction. What ideas were those? A thermonuclear rocket is science fiction. I would doesn't sound very science fictiony to me. You're the guy that's literally developing thermonuclear bombs. Unless he's not talking about conventional thermonuclear rockets. Unless his ideas of science fiction were related to wormholes and warp drives and other things that we've been talking about. Remember this is 1960s. These concepts didn't exist. There was no warp drive in 1960. I mean unless you were watching Star Trek and I think Star Trek was even late60s, right? In fact, maybe he was helping get those ideas out there all the way back then. And um what else was I going to say about this front? Oh yes, they were looking for solutions. This is also really huge. There's so many little clues in this document. They were looking for solutions to the nuclear the first strike problem. What's the first strike problem, guys? The first strike problem is whoever strikes first with nuclear weapons wins. That's what the first strike problem is. Do you guys realize that? So, he was tasked with finding a solution. How if somebody shoots missiles at us and we don't have time to respond and we get wiped out, how do you beat that? How do you beat the person that strikes first? Anybody in the chat have any answers to that? What do you guys think is the way that you would beat somebody the first strike? I have an idea. You warp their nukes back onto them. Well, how about the idea is those nukes never make it to us. How about we reflect your weapons right back on to you or destroy your nukes the moment they take off? Anyway, I just thought that was interesting. I'm not saying that's necessarily the case here, but if you if you read way between the lines, I could see how that is how that's significant. Now, look at this particular part right here. 1962. Now, we're right around the time that the Ripple project was happening. Nuclear tests, dramatic advances, dramatic advances in 1962. 1962, US responded to tests by doing our own tests and he focused on technological surprises. He says,"I propose a nuclear test of a radical high yield thermonuclear design so fantastic that my colleagues thought it was an April Fool's Day joke. In this radical design, a high performance thermonuclear secondary was imploded with a highly optimized pulse." There it is right there, chat. What do you guys think a highly optimized pulse means? It can only mean one thing. They're talking about shaping your waves with geometry. So that they it's just like a a like a choreograph dance. It's a choreograph dance and we're literally controlling the waveforms. So he does this first design and what does he say? He says severely constrained uh nuclear design engineering fabrication were completed in two months. said, "Day and night, Ron and I punched IBM cards as inputs." This is the thing I had read before. This is when I actually, this is where I found this document before when I was looking into uh I just realized what this is from. When I was looking into the origins of computers, when I looked into the origins of computers, I found that they go back to thermonuclear weapons. And I found this quote right here by John Knuckles where he was saying that not only do they need lasers for thermonuclear weapons, they need computers to do the math because you're trying to make perfectly optimized pulses in a three-dimensional environment. It's one thing to simplify the math for a two-dimensional environment. It's another thing when you're making a detonation in a three-dimensional environment, it becomes a lot more difficult. Now you need supercomputers. That's why we started developing computers. Here you are. Okay. So then they did the test. The test was successful. Everybody was amazed. Wow, you're so great. Blah blah blah. Aren't you the best? So the next step was they needed to understand I forget where it is in here somewhere. Oh, here it is. Next step it says it was right there. Um so this paragraph down here I dream of thermonuclear engines. So he keeps mentioning thermonuclear engines. I had a dream of thermonuclear engines but was it a possible dream? We did not know what laser size, target gains or reductions in fluid instability growth and rates and implosion asymmetrics were necessary or possible of possible of plasma instabilities. We knew nothing and had a lot to learn. Our computers and design codes were not adequate. Cost of lasers, target fabrication, and reaction chambers were not predictable. Fortunately, inertial confinement fusion was funded by the weapons program for weapons physics applications. I have a dream chat. Um, am I tripping here or is this just insane? Wait, what does this say right here? After KD reported on his meeting with Maym of Hughes Lab to discuss future of high-owered lasers, Foster decided that possible weapons applications justified launching a laser fusion program. He appointed Kidler to read to lead this program. So just if if you're getting caught up here, John Knuckles has now developed a clean Hbomb that has super high efficiencies from Castle Bravo and the Ripple project. And now they're going, "Okay, we're going to go ahead and build. We're going to start a laser fusion program now using pulse shaping and high energy lasers." I'm going to skip ahead a little bit here and just spoiler for you guys. Somebody early on asked me when I started digging into this connection to thermonuclear weapons. People said, "Oh, when you talk about inertial confinement fusion, do you mean like the National Ignition Facility, the NIF, they're doing laser inertial confinement fusion?" I want to answer that question now. Yes. Let me follow it up with another question. Who do you guys think started the National Ignition Facility? You can have one guess, chat. Who do you think started the National Ignition Facility, the NIF, where we're doing laser implosion inertial confinement fusion? Yes, thank you very much. It was John Knuckles himself is the person that started the NIF. [laughter] John Knuckles, the guy we're talking about in this document, literally says he's the one that started the National Facility. So, if you're like, "Huh, it's kind of weird that this guy's document sounds exactly like the MH370 plasma orbs converging on MH370," it's because this is the guy. This is the guy that goes that he's the guy that started the National Initiative Facility because he clearly was also to some degree helping to get this science out to the public. There's clearly a line between national security, but that line is blurry. It's a blurry line. How do you define the line between what physics and technology the public should be able to know about? You can imagine anybody would have concerns about that in their head. Okay, there's more yachts here. Here we go. Um, okay. Plasma implosion in 1964. So, right here, 1964. 1964. Kidler calculated a low gain target energized by a direct laser radiation. Spherically symmetric laser light was absorbed by a hydrogen ablader to drive the implosion of DT contained in a dense metal pusher. High gains were precluded by use of the pusher. Ignition was calculated using somewhat less than a megajoule of laser light. Plasma physics and implosion symmetry issues were not addressed. Kidler addresses the use of highowered lasers to generate temperatures and pressures in a 1968 publication. Wow. So they talk about a bunch of different experiments here that were going on and uh the next thing he mentions is right here. So in this paragraph it says in 1969 professor Mosh Luben leader of the University of Rochester laser fusion program and Joe John Dodson professor of plasma physics at Princeton visited Lawrence Liverour to discuss laser fusion on a classified basis. classified basis. I'm going to repeat that. This is a classified basis. Each had a target scheme. Neither scheme imploded DT to high densities. I briefly mentioned my classified 1960 to 1962 concepts and calculations. He's basically saying that he mentioned his classified ripple project stuff. Later in 1971, uh a laser-driven plasma instabilities revealed serious problems for target designers. So these guys were talking about this stuff. They have been talking about it publicly and it was classified like the the math, the the physics, the ri the the wave shaping, all the math around that's classified. That's what he's saying right there. And I wanted to point that out because people wonder, you know, if this is classified, what does that mean? Well, there you go. You're talking, you're seeing it right here. They classify the actual math, the physics of this pulse shaping of this resonance. Now, uh where's the part about the hollow spheres? Uh somewhere around here. Okay, so he won some awards. Oh, these guys. Um this is interesting here. So, what does he say about these guys right here? He says the laz the laz code used two spatial dimension finite difference scheme to simulate a variety of physical processes including hydrodnamics energy transport and coupling between thermal ions and multi-group electrons. Thermal radiation generation and absorption by bremlung and v a variety of other nonlinear processes. nonlinear processes, blemrung radiation. These are all the same terms. I mean, it almost sounds like professor size Paul sizes, professor sizz talking about hypersonics right here. That's what this sounds like. He says laser light transport and absorption of thermonuclear burn including non-local transport of charged fusion reaction parts in 1976 and 1970 with tfold more power computers than 1960. two-dimensional distortions of implosions were calculated. So, what he's saying is that we couldn't even do the math. We didn't even have computers that were powerful enough. And he mentions this later on as well as he says that when they got to like the '9s, the computers get like a hundfold more powerful again. And so, there's a connection between we need lasers to get more powerful, but we need the computers to keep getting more powerful as well, which tells me that we developed AI way before the public did. And we may have AI that's significantly more advanced. Okay. Um, okay. Here we go. Uh, did I skip ahead of this? Maybe. Oh, here we go. This is the page. In the late 1960s, I learned at an AAC fusion. Oh, it was right after that at the AC meeting later that uh Professor Keith Brookner presented classified calculations of laserdriven implosions of hollow DT microsphheres. Kidler did not support Brookner's proposal that the AEC explore commercial applications of laser fusion. So Kip, Seagull and Brookner formed KMS Fusion and applied for AEC funding to develop laser fusion energy applications. Do you guys understand the significance of this paragraph? So this paragraph here is saying that one guy presented hollow target proposal. The hollow target basically says you have a case of glass or something. Inside that place of glass, you have your fusion. And then you trigger that by shooting light at it. And the light goes through the glass, ignites the ignites the fusion target, and then it destroys the glass and then causes your implosion. So he showed classified calculations on how to to ignite hollow DT microsphheres fusion targets and he said can we explore commercial power applications and the answer was no. So then they went and made their own fusion company. Doesn't that seem kind of like a situation where somebody knows something's possible, the authority says, "No, you're not allowed to go do it, or we're not going to fund it, and then they go do it anyway." Because they already know it's going to work. Anyway, it does seem like that way to me. Okay, next thing. 1980. I'm going to skip ahead a little bit here. We only got a few more points to get through here, but they're all really good. um directly driven electronled targets. Is this the one where they talk about electron lasers? This is where they talk about symmetry and um thermal scattering here. I don't think that's the right one though. Yeah, I think a little bit further. Yeah, let's skip through this. Uh upgrading of lasers. Oh, the declassification. Oh, okay. I think I missed something. Hold on. Let me see. What the heck? Pumped. How come I can't find it? There we go. Here it is. Okay. What page [clears throat] was this? Oh, same page. You ready for this? Lowell Wood. This is extraordinary collaborator. So, this is John Knuckles guy. Guys, guys, this guy made a clean thermonuclear weapon. Who does he shout out? Who does he shout out in his document? Ready for this? extraordinary collaborators. Lowel Wood, Lowel Wood, a brilliant young protetége of Edward Teller became a collaborator in 1969. Subsequently, Lowell made an outstanding contributions to the theory and development of ICF. Lowell also secured Teller support. In the early 1980s, Lowell received an EO Lawrence award for his outstanding contributions in many many areas of work on nuclear explosive pumped X-ray lasers. Um what uh pardon me will you repeat will you repeat that again? Um sir or ma'am. Um La received the EO Lawrence award for his outstanding contributions in many areas in including work on nuclear explosive pumped X-ray lasers. You mean the whole thing I just did a whole live stream about a few days ago that I didn't even know existed? And I said if I imagined what a super laser would be that is beyond what we currently have, it would be a free electron nuclearped relativistic X-ray laser. Wow, that's pretty weird that that's literally called out specifically in his uh significant collaborators with respect to this. So anyway, I just wanted to point that out because I just thought that was crazy. And again, I thought the pictures of the guys here with the nonlinear Oh yeah, and this is this is one of them. Lowel Wood is top left. So there he is. Shout out to this guy right here. There we go. I love shouting out people that nobody knows about. That guy right there, Lowel Wood. Free energy electron laser. Sweet. Good work, man. Good work, guys. Okay. And then I think I already mentioned this, but he says, "I predicted ICF would be valuable for weapons physics applications and would ultimately provide a fusion energy source. Here it is right here. Ready for this? I estimated that several megajoules of laser energy would be sufficient to drive high gain radiation implosion and that a high risk alternative might be provided by directly driven targets energized by 100 kilogjle uh class lasers. I predicted ICF inertial confinement fusion would be valuable for weapons physics applications. What does weapons physics applications mean chat? and would ultimately provide a fusion energy source. So this guy is just classically just casually making clean thermonuclear weapons and he's saying that I inertial confinement fusion will be valuable for physics research and it will provide clean fusion energy. And he didn't just he didn't just say it with his words. He quite literally went on to found the national ignition facility which by the way has achieved over unity. They've achieved ignition. Did they achieve ignition? I think they did achieve ignition for a very short period of time. Yeah, it probably seems like I'm from the future because I saw a glimpse of the future but also technically the past. You know, I saw the MH370 videos. I've shown them a million times, but once again, there's no doubt that this Okay, there's no doubt that this video is real, guys. That's what you're looking at. Like, why do you think they're compressing ontropically like that? That's a That's a thermonuclear weapon. This is literally what John Knuckles built. In fact, I would love to talk to John Knuckles because there's no way he he knows he knows exactly what's going on in this video. Anybody that's worked with thermonuclear weapons, they know what they're looking at in this video. I'm honestly surprised that the government didn't come and talk to me. Presumably, the reason why the government didn't come and try to stop me on this is that it's been 10 years and everybody who wanted to know about it has already figured it out at this point. So, I mean, that's the reason, but that's definitely a thermonuclear weapon. It's just not a conventional thermonuclear weapon. It's just not a conventional thermonuclear weapon, guys. It's obviously a lot weirder than that. Um, okay. And actually speaking of that, one more thing I want to do a side tangent on is the meeting with Hal Hudof and Colonel John Alexander. They talk about UFOs with Edward Teller. He's happy to talk about it, but he seems like he doesn't really know anything about it. This is the biggest evidence for me that aliens are just a scop because people are like if anybody knew Edward Teller would be one of five people on the planet that would know about aliens and UFO technology if we were reverse engineering it. He would know about it. And in the conversation with Edward Teller and um Hal Pudof and and Colonel John Alexander, he seems like he doesn't even know about what Roswell was. So either he's a good liar, which is possible, or it really is just that we've developed this crazy physics, this crazy technology based on thermonuclear weapons, and it's so foreign to us when we look at it. Anybody that looks at the MH370 videos, your first thought is aliens because that's how foreign it looks to us. But that's just how successful we've been at developing advanced covert weapons without the public knowing about it. Okay, back to the topic at hand. So then they build new high-powered lasers, which is the part where they do I think right here. Yeah. So here's they talk about the the the lasers that they need. And again, they're saying ideal spherical calculations to produce these laser shocks. Um, at some point in here they talk about how expensive they are, reaching over a billion dollars to produce some of these more expensive lasers. So, this was a really big drawback was that how much power these things took to produce. Um, somewhere in here 1972 declassification. Let me see. Um, oh yeah, 10 kilogjle laser proposal. So here they were making more and more powerful lasers. I think I've already kind of beat this dead horse as it is. Then the declassification. So declassification here. It says that even though they did some declassification, the hollow target were still classified. Where is it? Here it is right here. So on this page about the declassification, so people say, "Oh, well they declassified inertial confinement fusion." Now that I've listened to John Knuckles explain it, they did not declassify inertial confinement fusion. They declassified just the basis. They said they said initial inertial confinement fusion is a thing, but don't look at lithium. Don't look at lithium. Don't make your lasers too powerful. And make sure that your fusion target is like 0.1 milligrams. of target. So, we've pretty much nerfed ourselves from ever really broaching the thing. It's It's too danger. They basically said, "We're putting training wheels on your bicycle and now we want you to go ride up the mountain." You're like, "With training wheels on? Yeah, with training wheels on. Go ahead. Give it your best go." Right. So he says, "Although hollow target calculations were still classified, we were allowed to note that the use of hollow targets would reduce the required peak laser power and might enable use of longer laser wavelengths. Los Alamos publish published the calculations of hollow targets in 1973 and 1974. So this is a guy that knows exactly all about these technologies. He knows about the classifications of them. He knows how they were classified. And here he is just straight up telling you hollow target math is classified. Guys, wrap your brain around it. MH370 got zapped through a portal. Why is there even a thing called hollow target calculations? I am I'm telling you absolute 100% truth. I did not know there was even a thing called hollow target calculations for thermonuclear weapons 48 hours ago. And now I'm looking at a document talking all about hollow target calculations and how they're classified. Do you know what would be a great hollow target? uh a Boeing trip 7 flying through the sky being circled by three spheres and then creating a hollow target with the lithium ion batteries on the inside using those lithium-ion batteries as your fusion payload that either zapped that plane into non-existence or teleported it somewhere else. Maybe they fractured the timeline. If that thing is really manipulating spaceime, then they fractured the timeline with MH370. I surely hope that's not the case, but you know what? Nothing would surprise me at this point. Now, here's another yatsi. There's If you haven't had enough yatsis, let's see. We've had uh pulse shaping, ontropic compression, super powerful free electron nuclear pumped X-ray lasers, uh Hal Pudof sitting next to Edward Teller. If this isn't enough, if you still think I'm spinning you a tail, if you still think that I somehow made all this up that just coincidentally, there's this document out there by John Knuckles, the guy that literally developed the clean Hbomb explaining all the same physics and science that I've been talking about that we see in two military videos. You still think that's fake? More power to you. Ignorance is bliss, baby. Ignorance is bliss. But here you go. Here's another yatsi. Edward Teller predicts uh where is it? Uh somewhere here. Edward Teller predicts that ICF would solve the third global energy crisis. Where is it? How did this many thirds? Here it is. Teller's perspective. In the late 1970s and early 1980s, Teller predicted ICF would solve the third global energy crisis after fish and whatever MF stands for solve the first two. So basically he's saying we're going to use fish which is nuclear technology nuclear energy and then whatever MF stands for maybe that means solar power and then after that inertial confinement fusion will solve all of the rest. Teller also suggested that high-owered lasers would able enable exploration of the physics of high energy and matter densities. What do you guys think they're talking about here? What do you guys think the physics of high energy and matter density is? Any thoughts? It's quite literally gravitational manipulation. High energy, high matter. That's gravity. We're talking about black holes. That's what they're talking about. The more energy you fit into a region of spaceime, the more you distort spaceime around it, the more curvature you produce. That's what we've learned from wormholes and warp drives right there. Yatsi again, chat. More yachts. Okay, couple last thoughts. Um, so 1983 rolls around. 1983 rolls around and he gets pulled into the SDI initiative somewhere in here. I don't know exactly where. Somewhere in here. Yeah, here it is. In 1968, pro uh President Ronald Reagan strategic defense initiative SDI was launched. Director Botzil promoted me to associate director of physics for Lawrence Livermore's 400 person physics department. So then he uh transferred the X division under his own department. So this is where John Knuckles became in charge or at least had a major role now at Lawrence Livermore 1983. Uh fundamental fluid plasma instability problems. Here you go. Right here. Fundamental fluid and plasma instability problems were addressed leading to a sufficiently stable ignition target to design for I for NIF National Ignition Facility. There you go. Um, you want to know something else? I I've got even more chat. This is nothing but yachts and spice tonight. It gets even crazier down here. Um, where is it? Somewhere here. They ch here. Listen to this right here. 1987, Roger Batzel announced his plan to retire. During his 17 years at L at Lawrence Liverour as director, he presided over the growth of a laboratory with enormous potential. He initiated Livermore's second generation ICF program and strongly supported ICF efforts. Batzel successor would face apparently impossible problems in the fusion area. In 1987, Lawrence Livermore's $400 million magnetic mirror machine was shut down so that the US MF funding could be focused on tokamac development. Okay. We just did a live stream. We just did a live stream like two weeks ago about free electron plasma lasers and how they use the plasma as a mirror. The plasma acts as a mirror to confine the light from the from the actual reaction itself. So when I read something like they were building a magnetic mirror machine [clears throat] for eusion research, it sounds very similar. must be in the same vein as those plasma lasers. So they deleted that. They deleted the thing that they were supposed to be doing and instead they went with the tokamac which was stupid which was never going to work. Tokamac was never going to work and they went ahead and invested a billion dollars in a tokamac that won't work and threw out the $400 million thing that actually was going to produce something. I mean I'm being hyperbolic here but you get the point. Yikes chat. Big yikes. And then down here is the final thing about the laser targets here. So this is like now getting to the quoteunquote the current time. This was written in 2007, the third generation. This is where um he gets he he starts the NIF. He starts the national ignition facility and he talks about the weapons cost and the budget costs and the budget costs were actually a factor. The sad part is there was budget cost factors. Uh and they have some breakthroughs here as well. Um, and then here you go. The NIF launch third generation ICF program at an early 1993 Livermore ceremony. I announced the first steps to build the giant mega jewel scale national ignition facility. 30 years ago at the Lawrence Liverour initiated the world's first laser fusion program. The far-reaching goal was to achieve ignition of small fusion explosions in the laboratory both for weapons and physics applications and to harness fusion for civil power. Throughout these 30 years, Lawrence Livermore has led the world in inertial fusion, inventing both direct and indirect target drives, building a series of ever larger high-powered solidstate lasers extending from one jewel scale to the 100,000jwel scale nova. and also by conducting a series of highly diagnosed laser implosion experiments which have provided a solid scientific foundation for inertial confinement fusion. In the past 5 years, the laser program has made extraordinary advances in lasers target uh targets laser and experiments. Today, the US inertial confinement fusion program is poised to take the step to ignition. The national needs that ICF addresses have become a time become time urgent with the passage of the Hatfield amendment limiting nuclear testing. The ICF program in general and this Lawrence Liverour laboratory in particular are challenged again to achieve a new generation of extraordinary advances in science, technology, and program management. So there you guys go. That's pretty much the finish of this. So, um, he was designated to be the leader of the National Initiative. He's the one who built the the NIF right off the bat. Um, and there's a little bit more here about fast ignition and some additional developments that they did, but that's pretty much Oh, was this advanced targets a thing that need address? Oh, no, that's it, guys. So, final closing thoughts. I also fed it into Grock and I had Grock. I said, "Hey, Grock, go ahead and review those scientific papers and or compare what John Knuckles is saying relative to the things that I've been saying on nuclear energy." And it found some connections. So, I'm just going to read here some of the quick scientific paper connections. It's pretty cool that Grock can do this. It's pretty cool that Grock can do this. Uh, shared themes says, "Here's some of the shared themes. The hollow targets core principle compressing fusion fuels to fusion conditions. Echoes several papers that Forbes um, it's four orbs. It's Ashton the demon. Four orbs. Grock, please." Echoes several papers that Ashton the Demon for Orbs cites and is dense plasma focus and plasma. For instance, parametric studies of dense plasma focus for fusion propulsion. A coaxial electrode system forms a pa a plasma sheath that collapses into a high density pinch for fusion similar to how the hollow targets implosion but using electromagnetic acceleration rather than lasers. So right here, these three papers, all all three of these papers, these are all papers that I've referenced in my Twitter posts. They all are basically saying that we are producing fusion through plasma convergence rather than using lasers to get it to happen. We're basically shooting plasmoids at each other. It's some form or another of helium. What helium energy is doing, shooting plasmoids at each other. So instead of trying to cause our Abomb, we're we're using the plasma itself to cause our fusion reaction to occur. The other two papers that are references dense plasma focus by Frank me. Jesus. I mean there you go. And then the other one it says is forcefree time harmonic plasmoids which I haven't spoken about in a while. This is actually Jack Nachamkin. It's not Frank me but that also counts. Um and then a neutronic fusion. Hollow targets typically use DT, but Forbes's reference office often focused on clean fuel, which outputs charged particles for direct energy conversion or propulsion. And what does it reference here? What does it reference right here? Edward Teller Edward Teller's 1992 paper on magnetic dipole confinement for dutyium helium 3 plasma proposes open field systems for rockets differing from the hollow targets neutronheavy ICF but aligning and using confined plasma for high beta. So and then the last one look at look how weird this last one is. I didn't I didn't force the AI to do this. Literally, my only prompt to the AI was compare my scientific papers that I've referenced to hollow targets from that John Knuckles document. That's all I told the AI to do. And it came back with the plasmoid thruster experiment. Richard Escridge 2003. [laughter] It references Amy's dad. details plasmoid propulsion via magnetic stabilization comparable to how the hollow target compression but for thrust rather than static ignition. So the point here being that the science is out there. We just haven't known what to look for. We see all this stuff about plasma plasma propulsion but we don't realize it's connections to thermonuclear weapons. There are direct connections to it so closely linked together that John Knuckles himself was coming up with a thermonuclear engine and he was in group chats. He was basically in group chats in 1960 with his buddies and they were saying that the stuff he was talking about was sci-fi. The guy is developing thermonuclear bombs and super high-powered lasers. What kind of possible thing could he be saying in group chats that your buddies are going, "Dude, you're doing too much Star Trek right now." I'm just saying it's not outside the realm of possibility that he was talking about the precursors to warp drives and wormholes even before they were even on anybody's rad 30 years before they would have been on anybody's radar. So, I hope you guys enjoyed this deep dive tonight, guys. I will recommend that if you want like a lot of people ask me about scientific papers. I just asked Grock to reference my public posts on Twitter and it came back with five different scientific papers that you can also easily get the source on. Just have Grock say just tell Grock look at Ashton the the scientific papers that Ashton Forbes has publicly posted. It'll give you a list. You're going to get dozens back. I forgot about half these scientific papers. We're literally over well over a hundred at this point. So, if you want those scientific papers, that's what I recommend you do. Use Grock. Have Grock feed you back the answers. And if you don't have, you know, the premium, you can just reply, I think, and ask Grock publicly and it'll tell you. So, hope you guys enjoyed it, guys. MH370 was zapped into a wormhole by an autronic thermonuclear detonation. Probably helped to be invented by Rob John Knuckles. Hal Pudof is hanging out with Edward Teller telling him about zero point energy. Zero point energy disclosure 2025. We're living through it right now. We got uh Elon Musk talking about the computers. We got fusion energy is all the rage. Super excited. Let's do some super chats and let's call it a night. And I just realized as well that I totally forgot. I didn't I didn't go live on Rumble. I just totally forgot to even set it up. My bad guys. My bad to my Rumbled and Pilled Chat homies. Guys, this was apparently an X and YouTube exclusive. Sam Fischer, my bad. This may have been previously asked, but do you think free energy microchip production is still dependent on ASML's EUV lithography? No, I don't think so. But the the better your lithography gets, the more precise your lithography gets, the more output you're going to get, the better efficient your free energy microchip is going to get. I'm kind of out on the free energy microchip. I mean, I still love it. I still love it. It's like my it's my my number two, but number one for me right now is Fusion. fusion is directly tapping zero point energy. I'm almost guarantee it. That's how they're able to get these huge uh gains on these thermonuclear detonations is they're tapping into the the vibrations and fluctuations of zero point energy and they're causing an amplification effect to occur. So that's my opinion on that. Um, anyway, last thought on this on the lithography. Lithography is making microchips, by the way, guys. Is Charles Chase's coherent matter wave beam patent. Oh, by the way, uh, I do need to go to this real quick. I did find this pretty cool as well. I need to pull this back up. One more thing that reminded me. I'm glad that reminded me. Remember this document, guys? Remember this document? This is the document. Nobody knows who wrote this document, but it's got like this 200page list of all these things that happened over history. Well, I'm just going to go to 2006 because one of the references I asked uh Grock to cross reference Hal Pudof. Where is it? Where is it? I asked Grock to reference Hal Pudof. Oh crap. I don't know where I put it. Huh. Weird. And John Knuckles and uh maybe it wasn't up there. What it came back with is one of those 2006 things from this document. From this document in 2006. Where did I notice it? Right here. And I was just reading through this and look what I found in 2006. Right here, guys. Are you ready for this? Former Loheed Martin skunk works senior tech fellow Charles Chase runs the UNL lab at MIT. Chase worked in exotic propulsion, metamaterials, and low observable technology at Lockheed and more recently developed a DARPA DSO quest to grant qu support quantum fluctuation propulsion research, an area that ATIP programs study linked to UAP. I didn't know this document was calling out Charles Chase. There he is, guys. We we've been making Charles Chase famous, but apparently his name has been connected to this stuff for a while now. Somewhere in here, supposedly it references Hal Pudof talking to Edward Teller. I don't know where it is here, but this is really interest. I mean, here you got Eric Davis talking about uh um George Bush. Howal Pudof tells Jock Valet that he and Eric Davis are pursuing a Loheed Martin technology for a jet hovercraft tested in the 60s. Weird. Um, let me see what else I wanted to say. And some of this may not be as reliable, but I I want to read this last part right here as well. I forgot about this. 2006 Lawrence Liverour National Laboratory Physicist Henry Deacon, which is a fake name, claims he's employed by a three-letter agency and that black budget physics is decades ahead of physics in the open source. Deacon claims that project Shiva Nova uses arrays of lasers and creates rips in the fabric of spaceime. Okay, now I'm really interested. Wait, what is this? A real Lawrence Liverour test? We just listened to the guy that ran Lawrence Livermore and now we're wondering, could these lasers be manipulating spaceime? And this person was was claiming to be a whistleblower in 2006. So, I'm not going to rip I'm not going to read through all that, but essentially what he says in that document is he says that um we may have been manipulating the time the time continuum. We may be creating time loops. We may be creating alternate timelines when we start manipulating with these technologies. And the reason why I thought that was interesting is that that would be a good reason to hide this stuff. I mean, yes, there's a lot of reasons like the collapse of the economy, like people just offing themselves, uh, you know, global war, greed, um, mass destruction. But another problem, another reason why we might be hiding this technology is because we might be literally manipulating the time the time continuum. If we can go back in time, then we definitely are. I'm literally fingers crossed we can't go back in time. If it turns out we can go back in time, then we are cooked. Then we are super cooked, guys. But that's essentially the argument that that uh document brings up. Timothy Foster, I recognize you now, says carry on Ashton, fellow Orbee ambassadors. Thank you very much. Thank you, Timothy Foster. And Stuart Stewart says, "The potential energy density of these devices seems so vast. Could their use in testing be influencing the direction of magnetic poles or trigger an endothermic uh event like an ice age?" You know, that's a good question, actually. It's actually a good question. Um, they're not big enough in the MH370 videos to impact the magnetic poles, but to answer your question another way, yes, these are doomsday weapons. You don't really have to worry about magnetic poles flipping because they could probably just wipe out the whole planet in like a dozen different ways. So, I do think that these weapons represent doomsday. I do think they quite literally represent the end times. I think a lot about revelations, the alpha and the omega, because these this nuclear weaponry, it's either a weapon or it's an energy source. It can be used for good, it can be used to create things, and it can be used to destroy things. And to me, that's what the alpha and the omega is all about. The first and the last, the beginning and the end. Um, okay. And then one last donation. Astro quantum official resonant fees free energy lasers vacuum polarized plus coher electron positron pairs I believe that's what that means boy chat I'm understanding all the acronyms now what is wrong with me so uh yes what we have and this is if you really read between the lines on John Knuckles stuff like I this is why guys I I am tongue and cheek a little bit but not even really is that there are good reasons why this techn technology has been hidden. Like people like John Knuckles, he is hiding this an he's hiding the answers not just out of civic duty, not just because he has NDAs, but clearly he must morally believe that the right choice is to not have it all just come out at once. And that's the thing that scares me the most because if there is a good reason to hide it, then we are definitely cooked. We are definitely cooked. Every good thing has been destroyed in this in this world and this would probably be no different. And that's why I say that I'm not even excited about disclosure, true disclosure, because true disclosure is going to meet lead to ultimate power and ultimate power corrupts. Absolutely. That's my that's my final quote for tonight guys. Hope you guys enjoyed the live stream. Hope you have a great night guys and we are going to talk more on Wednesday. uh science, physics, and politics. Guys, once again, Jason Georgiani that'll probably drop uh maybe in a week or so. And then before that on Sunday, we're going to have Dave Rossi and Salvador Pis and we're going to be talking about, you know, all the normal cool stuff. Guys, have a great night everybody. Love you, MH70X. Peace out, guys. I'll put a link in the Discord in the chat as always.
