What the future holds for transportation

What follows the automobile? There will be societal changes that happen when automobiles are replaced by a more efficient form of transportation. What’s next? The question is answered by history. What was society’s reaction to the change of using horses and wagons since the implementation of the train and automobile?

The foundation to all urban growth is based on its primary source of transportation. Western Society is corollary to its land-use. The product of its land-use is today’s dependence on the automobile. Independence of travel has widened with the car culture, and the automobile centric landscape has completely changed Western Society. Adding technological advances in the communications industry and digitization of information storage with computers, there are only sparse remnants that hold onto life’s past generations.

The future of today

The future holds its balance on the scale of artificial intelligence. Will advances in computerization dictate transportation? One viewpoint that predicts the future is a question between pessimism and realistic possibility. That viewpoint asks if AI technology would be used as a method of governmental control over human freedom of independence in travel. This philosophical view is a pessimistic statement which is re-enforced in the bureaucracy of today’s media headlines. With AI being programed by a political agenda, the future of AI regulated transportation is indeed impressionable. An AI enforced transportation system could result into denied access to personal transportation. This is a philosophical argument found in human nature and the politics of the narcissistic behavior of bureaucracy and governmental procedure.

The aspects of humanity’s inventive nature, its entrepreneurial and inspirational advances; in transportation technology: regarding replacing the automobile with a more advantageous mode of transportation, remain to be discovered.

If this were a philosophical article, there could be merit found in questioning the validity of sacrificing freedom to hyper-regulated control of movement. Since this is about transportation and answering a question about its future, what can be expected regarding transportation’s future? 

How far into the future will cars continue? Trains were the dominant form of transportation when Western Society was built 200 years ago. Animals were the dominant form of transportation prior to that. Trains are still used today for heavy cargo and streetcars are still used in a sparse number of cities but, have lost their dominance as the primary method of personal transportation in Western Society.

Again, this is to point out the fact that all urban growth is based on its primary source of transportation. With today’s modes of modern transportation, there are only two predominant forms of urban growth: transit-oriented development and automobile centric land-use design. What type of transportation device can accommodate both of these land-use designs?

Recognizing the reliance of transportation to land-use

The question is important to answer regarding transportation’s future. Not knowing what type of transportation device will replace the automobile, it places an impossibility on today’s land-use development planning. However, continuing the unsustainable patterns in accommodating the automobile centric land-use design is nothing less than a suicidal path into oblivion. 

And, yes, animals were used for personal transportation throughout the 19^th and early 20^th century, however, they’ve all but disappeared as a viable form of transportation in today’s society. The question is, will automobiles eventually disappear into oblivion and only be used for recreation, similar to animals? The answer is a conclusive: yes.

Gravity as a source of motion for transportation

When; is the immediate question. What form of transportation will replace the automobile? Will it fly? That vehicle replacement device hasn’t been offered yet. But, the foreseeable solution is a gravity-based device. How can such a claim be factually stated? This is a CATTCC article. CATTCC is the Center for Advance Transportation Technology. According to conclusive research and study, gravity is a viable source for motion. It’s also the least understood and least studied area of potential use for transportation. The deepest studies of academia in theoretical physics validate the lack of its transportation research, the combined scientific opinion confesses that there is no definition to what gravity is.

How can gravity provide motion for a transportation device? There are two arenas in transportation: short-distance and long-distance travel. Long-distance is regional, or global, and space travel. The use of gravity as a source of travel in space has already been validated on many NASA space missions. The most recent was the Parker Solar Probe which used the gravitational attraction of Venus to accelerate the probe to the fastest speed ever attained by humans. The Parker Solar Probe exceeded 400,000 mph, not by rocket propulsion but by gravitational attraction.

Using gravity as a method of vehicle motion on Earth’s surface has yet to be discovered. However, the necessity for transportation motion is levitation, which is the manipulation of gravity. 

Where is the future for transportation?

CATTCC has long said: “The future of transportation floats”. This statement is made with authority throughout CATTCC’s experience over many years in the advanced transportation industry.

There are many CATTCC article posts relating to effectiveness and concepts, proposing ways to enable levitation as a viable manner to initiate a mechanism for short distance transportation vehicle.

From the article: How Vehicles Can Levitate, is the following:

When challenged with a difficult question, a good procedure is to find simplistic similarities. Given the task of finding solutions enabling a levitating vehicle, there are three similarities: vibration, Earth’s atmosphere, and Earth’s core. Grebennikov’s CSEs can provide a platform. Earth’s core can provide a stable electromagnetic foundation. Earth’s atmosphere can provide a static reaction.

The immediate question: how do these three components react with each other in a manner that provides a platform, or device, to interact with each other and allow the platform, or device, to levitate? What are the simple similarities of these three components? They all have frequency signatures. The importance of a frequency signature is its vibrational movement. These three components have the ability to be synchronous in their relational reaction.

Discovering new modes of transportation for space travel requires more than acceleration.

The article: Inertia and Neural Control mentions this: The interior of such a ship design would have to be similar to the Otis Carr design. His ship design was comprised of three sections which produced an independent inertia.

What’s the difference between momentum and inertia? Momentum and inertia are often confused due to their similar definitions. Momentum is the force or speed of movement, while inertia is the resistance offered by a body to the motion.

A previous article asked an important question. How is the creation of an independent inertia field important to vehicle design? The answer goes to explain the design of Otis Carr’s ship. It’s theoretically possible for Otis Carr’s ship to have maintained an independent inertia field within the ship’s control section. The two outer spheres of his craft spun in opposite directions. The inner sphere remained in a neutral position. Theoretically, this gives the ship an independent inertia field ability to travel at a very fast speed in Earth’s atmosphere and make an instant ninety-degree turn; without a g-force reaction to passengers.

From the article, What Space Exploration Requires: NASA’s planetary telescope missions suggest that Kepler-69c is the closest planet with the possibility to maintain life. It’s a super-Earth-size planet in the habitable zone of a star like our sun. But it’s located about twenty-seven hundred light-years from Earth, in the constellation Cygnus. This, of course means that getting there traveling at light speed would take 2,700 years.

The fastest speed human technology has thus far attained is 0.000037279123279345 lightspeed. Multiplying 0.000037279123279345 per second, times 34,000,000 seconds per year, times 2700 years, the Parker Solar Probe could reach Kepler-69c in 636,533,574,170 years.

Conclusion

CATTCC has concluded that the manipulation of gravity is a significant component to the future of transportation.
