Favorite Quote or Personal Motto
“You develop an instant global consciousness, a people orientation, an intense dissatisfaction with the state of the world, and a compulsion to do something about it. From out there on the moon, international politics look so petty. You want to grab a politician by the scruff of the neck and drag him a quarter of a million miles out and say, ‘Look at that, you son of a bitch.’” Edgar Mitchell, Apollo 14 astronaut after returning from the moon.

Dr. Mr. Pyle,
My name is Scott McKie – and I just watched the 5 / 24 /History channel’s “Unexplained” – “Alien Earthlings” show with William Shatner – with you in it.
I’m sending you information that I think “might interest you” concerning NASA’s up-coming “Draco” / Nuke powered rocket motor:
— because it is totally unnecessary – and here’s why.
In 1992 I began work with Dr. Ira T. Myers Ph. D (now deceased) who was at the the time – the “unofficial” head of Alternative Energy Research at NASA-Lewis Research Center, Cleveland, Ohio.
He called his research “unofficial” – because of the very hostile NASA position concerning “over-unity anything” at the time.
I was working with him – because I had been able to make a presentation to him concerning my Nikola Tesla based / “over-unity” / electric power supply design named the POD MOD, short for “P”ower “O”n “D”emand “MOD”ule:
— that I had received US Patent 5,146,395 / A POWER SUPPLY INCLUDING TWO TANK CIRCUITS / with “regenerative feedback”.
Dr. Myers immediately recognized that the design could power an Argon Gas Ion Drive Space Engine he was designing for a future NASA Mission to Mars.
He had earlier calculated – that there was enough natural Argon Gas present in the Universe – to power travel anywhere in the Universe – but Mars would be first.
Because he had already found his “fuel source” – he was very happy with finding my “over-unity” power supply — because he was already very familiar with both Electronics – and Nikola Tesla’s electrical research — which is the basis on which the POD MOD works.
The POD MOD’s final design’s maximum continuous output is:
— 480 VDC / 480 Amps – which equals:
— 230,400 Watts; 230.4 kW; or .2304 MW – continuous output: from a maximum input of:
— 15 Watt@ 12 VDC .
The POD MOD design has a maximum output power to input power ratio of:
— 15,360 : 1 – for an “over-unity” ratio of:
— 1,536,000%.
It is totally solid-state electronics / small – 2.5 cu. ft. / lightweight – 30 lb. / and very inexpensive to produce – less than $2000 per unit.
The finalized design is in transition to have the electronics section mounted on a single / professionally manufactured / 7″ by 8″ pc-board for Beta testing p to full voltage output testing.
Last year NASA requested – and I have given my consent to them to use the Patent info.
But with their present mindset against “over-unity anything” — I doubt they have any one that would really work with it:
— as it takes a complete readjustment as to what electricity “is” and how it actually is produced:
— to understand Tesla’s work and researches – and thus the POD MOD.
.
I can give you a direct “real-world” comparison though.
The exact same circuitry:
— has been working as the “radio station to radio station tuning circuitry;
— as found in every AM or FM radio manufactured:
— since Tesla invented and applied for his patent for the radio:
— on Mar. 20th. 1900:
— for over 124 years.
Professional / educational / bias – being behind Tesla’s circuitry not being used:
— especially as a “stand-alone” / “over-unity” / electric power supply — is not in question here.
It’s a fact.
Any tank circuit – when tuned to it’s resonant frequency: “in the real world”:
— always “electronically reduces” the tank circuit’s total input power requirement, i.e., most likely the input amperage level that is connected into the tank circuit:
— to the absolute minimum value.
At the same time – the tank circuit itself — always develops the amperage level “in the tank circuit itself”:
— to the absolute maximum value.
It is a Classic Physics “known and accepted fact” – that any electric circuit will only produce “up to its maximum power (voltage and amperage) level” – and no more.
And that is the case with the POD MOD – which Dr. Myers recognized:
— with the “developed in the tank circuit – output power” to “input power” ratio – always being “over-unity” — without “breaking” any Laws of Physics.
Also – the advent of semiconductor electronics – greatly increased the “output power” to “input power” ratio over the standard textbook / constantly connected AC sinusoidal input / “over-unity” ratio:
— because semiconductor electronics is based on
— using a “positive only going” / square wave / “pulsed” input signal:
— with a reduced “duty cycle”, i.e., the time that the pulsed input signal is actually connected to the resonant tank circuit / per cycle being the norm.
The input signal “duty cycle” for the POD MOD:
— is around 15% duty cycle of each cycle:
— with the signal being completely disconnected for the remaining 85% of each cycle:
— while the “oscillating” voltage and amperage “in” the same resonant tank circuit:
— is 100%, i.e., “constant”.
As for an Argon Gas – Ion Drive’s capability: — if constantly under acceleration by being powered by one of more POD MODs:
— the space craft would not have to have that huge piece of hardware located in front of the Draco Engine — and it could reach the theoretical speed I’ve recently heard having been calculated at:
— between 95 and 99% of the speed of light, or 186,000 miles as second.
Dr. Myers also calculated that the “flight-time” for a trip to Mars:
— could be reduced from the 9 months of “coasting” mentioned on the History Channel show:
— to between 4 – 6 weeks – each way:
— also guaranteed; if the craft was POD MOD powered – using the following maneuvers:
— accelerate to the mid-way point / reverse the ship’s flight orientation / and use the controllable thrust as a “brake” until reaching the destination.
SpaceX has done a bang-up job of demonstrating that the reversing maneuver works.
I’m sending you this information – and can supply you with a professional laboratory test affidavit that was performed on a much earlier / much simpler version of the POD MOD design – that continuously produced:
— “pure”, i.e., no harmonics or electrical noise / sinusoidal AC waveform:
— 120 VAC / 60 Hz / 0.06 A – while powering an AC motor, from an “electrically reduced” input of:
— 75 VAC / 60 Hz / 0.03 A: producing:
— 293% “over-unity” output power:
— on Sept. 10th. 1984. — almost 40 years ago.
And if you Google “…Scott McKie – POD MOD — “Over-Unity” power generator…” — you will find a newspaper article written by then staff reporter for the Seattle Times, Mr. Terry McDermott – positioned “front-page” with a full page spread inside – because the publisher at the time thought the content of the article warranted it:
— published June 23rd. 1993.
Mr. McDermott contacted / interviewed / and quoted Dr. Myers in the article.
Back then – people were curious and excited about new things.
Not like today – where they work to deny people new things that could help the world — like fighting Climate Change.
But that is not my reason for contacting you.
This is for Dr. Myers — because:
— he was so right about so many things, and
— he was way ahead of is time.
If you find any of this information of interest — please feel free to contact me at any time.
Yours,
