E-Cat News
Andrea Rossi has given a bit of a preview of what to expect at the presentation on January 31st. This evening he had responded to a question on the Journal of Nuclear Physics about whether he had ever observed ‘balls of plasma’ in the E-Cat, and he responded, ‘yes’. I followed up with a question […]

Starlite Replication? (Video of Homemade Heat Resistant Material)
Someone on the Journal of Nuclear Physics posted a link to a video by Ben on the YouTube Channel NightHawkInLight in which he provides instructions on how to replicate a material similar to ‘Starlite’ which was invented by a British hairdresser and inventor named Maurice Ward. Ward invented a material that could resist temperatures beyond […]
