E178 - Jesse Michels: What UFO Sightings Reveal About Power, Technology, and the Unknown | Jesse Michels

And then what's really crazy is in the back room, while this is going on, while we're trying to figure out theoretically,

Know Thyself

what's happening with gravity.

E178 - Jesse Michels: What UFO Sightings Reveal About Power, Technology, and the Unknown | Jesse Michels

And by the way, Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, Wright Airfield, which is center of all the UFO lore, they're also, they have a theoretical physics group looking into anti-gravity.

E178 - Jesse Michels: What UFO Sightings Reveal About Power, Technology, and the Unknown | Jesse Michels

This whole era in the 50s is obsessed with anti-gravity.

Know Thyself
E178 - Jesse Michels: What UFO Sightings Reveal About Power, Technology, and the Unknown | Jesse Michels

While they're theoretically looking at it, you have Agnew-Bonson, the Institute of Field Physics, North Carolina, the same exact group

E178 - Jesse Michels: What UFO Sightings Reveal About Power, Technology, and the Unknown | Jesse Michels

funding this guy named townsend brown doing experiments around anti-gravity and you have video of townsend brown in the lab popping champagne ostensibly because he got a positive result around these anti-gravity experiments

And a year before that, you have him doing similar experiments in a vacuum chamber.

E178 - Jesse Michels: What UFO Sightings Reveal About Power, Technology, and the Unknown | Jesse Michels

It was called the Montgolfier Project in 1956.

And you have a French technical representative named Jacques Cornillon.

Know Thyself
E178 - Jesse Michels: What UFO Sightings Reveal About Power, Technology, and the Unknown | Jesse Michels

We have him on audio on his deathbed saying that the experiments worked.

E178 - Jesse Michels: What UFO Sightings Reveal About Power, Technology, and the Unknown | Jesse Michels

And you have Agnew Bonson himself saying very weird things happen at high megavolts across short distances.

E178 - Jesse Michels: What UFO Sightings Reveal About Power, Technology, and the Unknown | Jesse Michels

And what he's talking about is essentially Townsend Brown's work.

Know Thyself
E178 - Jesse Michels: What UFO Sightings Reveal About Power, Technology, and the Unknown | Jesse Michels

That was what he did.

Know Thyself
E178 - Jesse Michels: What UFO Sightings Reveal About Power, Technology, and the Unknown | Jesse Michels

It was these capacitor experiments, high voltage experiments.

Know Thyself
E178 - Jesse Michels: What UFO Sightings Reveal About Power, Technology, and the Unknown | Jesse Michels

low current, short distances.

E178 - Jesse Michels: What UFO Sightings Reveal About Power, Technology, and the Unknown | Jesse Michels

And so you have this, you get into these, and then, I mean, you go on for so long about this, like the current electrostatics lead scientist at NASA, or the guy that just left, he was the electrostatics lead at NASA for decades.

Know Thyself
E178 - Jesse Michels: What UFO Sightings Reveal About Power, Technology, and the Unknown | Jesse Michels

His name is Charles Bueller, just left to start a propellantless propulsion program, a company called Exodus Space,

Know Thyself
E178 - Jesse Michels: What UFO Sightings Reveal About Power, Technology, and the Unknown | Jesse Michels

And he claims that it's based on Townsend Brown's work.

Know Thyself
E178 - Jesse Michels: What UFO Sightings Reveal About Power, Technology, and the Unknown | Jesse Michels

So you have all this like smoke after that, you know, in the 50s, that like Townsend Brown's stuff probably worked.

Know Thyself

So then you get into this like really interesting philosophical, you know, kind of question of...
