In the News

quote [ Local stations KOTI 2 and KOBI 5 helping me get the word out :) ]

Ok, now that this is on tv I might be able to get someone to test this experiment, or physically evaluate my setup.
Either way .. now the story is getting some forward momentum itself ;)

No, in the parts you haven't even thought about - in the straps and hooks, etc, that tie the beam to the ceiling. Without that - if it was floating in space freely, it wouldn't move at all (assuming everything balanced perfectly).

You have to ask yourself - how can momentum get into or out of the system? You're so focused on the engine itself, even with the plastic bag and all, that you have not considered the rest of your setup. To a physicist, that big rope and strap trapeze is a giant red flag - it's completely obvious that this is a gross "momentum leak" in your experiment.
