Closed Timelike Curve (CTC) Construct
Scale Model prototype
by Thomas G Skeggs
The main aim of this CTC Construct, scale model prototype is to test a hypothetical design (I discovered by accident), for a device or construct to generate closed timelike curves. The CTC Construct is a scale model prototype for a full-sized manned prototype, known as the Flight Test Article (FTA): Defiance. The FTA: Defiance is an 12ft by 12ft by 6ft, prototype Vertical Take-Off and Landing (VTOL) aerosplace vehicle, which has taken nearly six years to design. The design for the CTC Construct and FTA Defiance, was largely inspired by the work carried by Thomas Townsend Brown and Nikola Tesla. I have combined their work with quantum theory and the principles of electrostatics and tribo-electrification, to product a vehicle, unlike any other, (See figure one).

In the early 1900s, Edwin Hubble made the startling discovery that our Milky Way galaxy is not alone. It is just one of many galaxies, or “island universes,” as Hubble dubbed them, swimming in the sea of space.
Now, a century later, NASA’s Galaxy Evolution Explorer is helping piece together the evolution of these cosmic species. Since its launch in 2003, the mission has surveyed tens of thousands of galaxies in ultraviolet light across nine billion years of time. The results provide new, comprehensive evidence for the “nurture” theory of galaxy evolution, which holds that the galaxies first described by Hubble – the elegant spirals and blob-like ellipticals — are evolutionarily linked.

Having explored Mars for three-and-a-half years in what were missions originally designed for three months, NASA’s Mars rovers are facing perhaps their biggest challenge.
For nearly a month, a series of severe Martian summer dust storms has affected the rover Opportunity and, to a lesser extent, its companion, Spirit. The dust in the Martian atmosphere over Opportunity has blocked 99 percent of direct sunlight to the rover, leaving only the limited diffuse sky light to power it. Scientists fear the storms might continue for several days, if not weeks.

Scientists have recently discovered that the planet Saturn is turning 60 - not years, but moons.
“We detected the 60th moon orbiting Saturn using the Cassini spacecraft’s powerful wide-angle camera,” said Carl Murray, a Cassini imaging team scientist from Queen Mary, University of London. “I was looking at images of the region near the Saturnian moons Methone and Pallene and something caught my eye.”
The newly discovered moon first appeared as a very faint dot in a series of images Cassini took of the Saturnian ring system on May 30 of this year. After the initial detection, Murray and fellow Cassini imaging scientists played interplanetary detective, searching for clues of the new moon in the voluminous library of Cassini images to date.
