Julio Gobbi's analysis of Otis Carr's technology

How the craft works

This blogpost is about Julio Gobbi. In his paper, available at gsjournal.net, he presents a thorough analysis of Otis Carr’s ship. 

In the third chapter of Julio Gobbi’s paper, he explains how the craft works.  According to Carr, when two electrically charged bodies rotate in opposite directions on the same axis, the effect is to create a gravitational center that makes the craft independent of external gravitational forces: "Any vehicle accelerated to an axis rotation relative to its attractive inertial mass, immediately becomes activated by free-space-energy and acts as an independent force… We have shown that a charged body, accelerated to an axis rotation relative to this attractive inertial mass, indicates polarity in a given direction. The dip-needle points, say, up toward the top of the body. But mount this while rotating body (with its spindle) on another platform and rotate this platform on a spindle, then if the counter-rotation is greater than the inertial forward rotation of the body, a dip-needle on the second platform will point down while the first dip-needle points up, indicating complete relativity of polarity. When the exact counter-rotation matches the forward rotation, the body loses its polarity entirely and immediately becomes activated by free-energy (tensor stresses in space) and acts as an independent force… The above-described assembly of counter-rotating charged masses becomes weightless and will escape the immediate attraction of gravitational forces…"

Julio Gobbi goes on to explain: Carr uses an internal platform rotating in direct rotation and places several devices in counter-rotation with its axes fixed by bearings on this first platform. There are six counter-rotating devices, equally spaced along the perimeter of the internal platform and are called Utron regenerative accumulators. There is another external platform that rotates in counter-rotation, as opposed to the first platform, with twelve electromagnets that produce electrical energy during the passage of the Utrons in their air gaps, when the system works as a regenerative generator. 

This second external platform rotating in counter-rotation aims to compensate for the rotation of the first internal platform and keep the central cabin stationary. The fact is that the internal platform works like a rotor, while the external platform works like a stator (armature). In another statement by Carr, we can confirm that to create an artificial gravity inside the craft, as well as to keep the central cabin stationary, it is necessary to rotate two systems in opposite rotation: “Yes, this is the beginning of an answer to your question: we have capacitor plates and electromagnets as a part of this system. Now, this is counter-rotating; the electromagnets rotate in one direction, and the batteries rotate in another. The capacitor plates rotate in conjunction with the battery so that we have a clockwise and counterclockwise rotation. Now the third system is the cabin that keeps the crew. This does not rotate; it is fixed due to the fact that the two bodies are rotating clockwise and counterclockwise. Therefore, the system causes the craft to escape from the gravity pull. The craft itself due to this system still has internal gravity because it still has the same weight that it had in the beginning.”

As we can see, one of the functions of Utron devices and electromagnets is to make the system work like a motor, where the rotor and stator (armature) rotate in opposite rotation freely, which keeps the cabin stationary in the center. The switching of the electromagnets is done in a similar way to the present brushed motors and the supply of this “motor” is done by the central battery. However, switching the electromagnets also allows the energy regeneration of the batteries, when the system reaches a minimum rotation that allows the rotor (where the Utron accumulators are) and the stator (where the electromagnets are) to function as a generator. We can describe the central Utron as an energized rotor or, in other words, as a rotor that contains its own battery in motion and that is also capable of continually re-energizing itself. Otis Carr knew that bodies in high rotation create a gravitational field in the direction of the angular velocity vector, parallel to the spin axis. This principle was demonstrated in the chapter Gravitational Neutralization of the article Inertial Field [3], by analogy to the balance of forces that keeps a satellite in orbit around the planet. This gravitational neutralization was further studied in the section Gravitational Potential Neutralization in the article EM-GI Propulsion Systems [4]. We saw that when an object is in high rotation, it is possible to overcome the planet's gravitational field force, and we performed calculations that allow quantifying this phenomenon, known as the gyroscopic effect. This effect explains why, when asked about the square shape of the Utrons, Carr replied: “Dimensionally it is; it is square in these dimensions and when this rotation starts and builds up to a certain velocity, this form is very important because we have the total equation of action and reaction. Now this is done by a system of coil winding wherein we start at a point, expand to an equator, and continue our winding down to a point. With this physical expansion and contraction, is an electromagnetic field. Gravity enters the picture in the form of this relative rotation. When the relative rotation – inertial effective mass –, it's a matter of dimension. So that is the earth, say, is 8,000 miles in diameter, we know its fixed rotation is 1 in 24 hours. If we were 1 mile in diameter its rotation would be 8,000 in 24 hours. And by the same system, our 45-foot craft has a rotation of 580 rpm and when it reaches this rotation it is totally independent of its inertial attractive mass, in an electromagnetic field. … 

“This model was spun at 40,000 rpm and when it did it set a pressure pattern of 1,000 tons; the horsepower reading was a little over 700. Six engineers checked this out. Now the relative rotation of this model would be about 68,000 rpm, and when it reaches this rotation, it would immediately take off.”

To overcome the gravitational pull of planet Earth, the relative rotation speed of the platform would be equal to the rotation speed of the Earth at the equator, that is, around 580 RPM. As the rotation of the electromagnets would be 580 RPM and the rotation of the central battery would also be 580 RPM, however, in the opposite direction, the total rotation, in relation to the other, would be 1,160 RPM. Mr. Colton, in an interview continues: “We're not giving it for a certain rotation for the sake of rotation but for the sake of relativity to the attractive mass. The earth at 8,000 miles diameter rotating once in 24 hours is relatively equal to a 45-foot craft rotating at 580 rpm, and 580 rpm would calculate to be the approximate rotational speed of an automobile tire on a car moving at about 25-30 mph.

The rotation at which the 45-foot disc would be independent of its inertial attractive mass presented by Mr. Colton in the interview is not correct. The approximate correct value is 660 RPM:

The six capacitor plates that rotate in direct rotation create a magnetic field on the central axis of the system in the same way as seen in the chapter Magnetic Propulsion Through Mass Rotation of the article EM-GI Propulsion Systems [4]. This central rotating magnetic field collects the ions from the atmosphere, as seen in the section Electric Charge Gathering by Magnetic Vortex of the article Power from Electrostatic Charges [5], and projects the negatively charged particles to the craft's periphery. Capacitor plates are bombarded by these negative electrostatic charges because they are on their path to the periphery and absorb them becoming superconducting due to the structural change in their atoms. The same occurs with the hull surface that is in the projection direction of these particles. This structural change is commented as being similar to jelly, that is, the metal becomes soft. The superconducting characteristic of these plates increases the central magnetic field by more than a thousand times and the projection of particles also multiplies. In this way, the central magnetic field is amplified and allows the disk to float magnetically in the vertical component of the Earth's magnetic field.

Carr's craft used several propulsion systems that, taken together, produced a gravitational center that moved the entire craft together, without the effects of inertia. In addition to the central electrical system, which provides electrical energy to the disk, we can identify the magnetic system of capacitor plates, which provides magnetic levitation, the peripheral magnetic system, which works as a motor and generator, and the gyroscopic system of gravitational propulsion.

There are two other systems that may be explored based on the electrostatic charges projection to the periphery, that we will not describe again in here. The first is the gathering of these charges to get free energy, because it was widely described in the article Power from Electrostatic Charges [5]. The second is the magnetic propulsion system caused by the circulation of these charges in the periphery of the disk. This creates a repulsion between this magnetic field and the vertical component of the terrestrial magnetic field, but it was widely described in the article EM-GI Propulsion Systems [4]. 

In addition to these systems, there is a secondary effect of producing etheric particles that provides an increase in the mental capacity of the crew. This allows control of the craft's direction according to the will and controlled imagination of its crew. We will not discuss this phenomenon.



According to Carr, the set of batteries that feeds the entire electrical system of the craft consists of the electrical connection of countless electrical cells of any known type (lead-acid, nickel-cadmium, metal hydride, etc.), which form an accumulator of large capacity, mounted inside a device in the form of double overlapping cones (central Utron). “We could use any of the kinds you mentioned; what we have here is tremendous power size in comparison to other batteries; therefore, it's very easy to put 1,000 2-volt cells inside this one unit as you see it. It has functioned very well. In our 45-foot craft we plant to have 12,000-volt batteries which will extend an electromotive force which will energize the electromagnets and the capacitor plates. The generative coils will put back into the batteries in this system the same amount of volts going out until there is a breakdown of electro-chemicals or wear-out of equipment. But it could last as long as average storage batteries in automobiles.” 

As described above, the battery pack provides an electrical potential of 2,000 Volts DC for the prototype, but the 45-foot craft will have a battery pack that will provide 12,000 Volts DC for the production of the magnetic fields of the Utrons and electromagnets from the periphery. In order to function as a motor/generator, the Utrons and peripheral electromagnets are powered by synchronized pulses. For electromagnets, which have a ferromagnetic core, the pulsating current is calculated to not saturate the core, but in the case of Utrons, which do not have a ferromagnetic core, the pulsating current must be calculated to provide a minimum magnetic field sufficient to separate a large part, if not all, the electrical charges of mercury (its electrons in the conduction layer). This means that these current pulses can reach 1,000 A or more for the prototype, and 10,000 A or more for the 45-foot craft.

During operation, when the platform (which contains the six Utron regenerative accumulators and the six capacitor plates) rotates in the opposite direction to the external structure (which contains the electromagnets), an intense magnetic field is formed in the center of the disk, all powered by the central battery bank. As clarified by Otis Carr: “Our system utilizes gravity, electromagnetism, and electromotive force and a relative field to get its functional operation. We use an electrified sender. It's a sensor power core. Now this is what we call an accumulator… It is a storage cell, an accumulation of storage cells which provide an electromotive force in the same manner that any known battery produces an electromotive force.”

In operation, the central battery pack releases electromotive force to power the entire ship and, at the same time, is recharged by the energy collected in the coils of the electromagnets that rotate in counter rotation on the external platform. It is the central energy system for the space vehicle. As Carr describes: “This starts out electrochemically the same as other batteries, but we do have a regenerating system that is very unique. We are able here, for the first time to our knowledge, to use atmospheric electricity as a recharging system. This is done as part of the operational principle of the craft.
