OSU Wake-Up Start-Up To Get Peak At The Great Time Machine Race

Oct. 9, 2012 - PRLog -- Research and development engineer Marshall Barnes will be presenting a brief introduction to the race to build the first time machine Friday October 12th at the Ohio State University Technology Commercialization and Knowledge Transfer Center http://wakeupstartup.com/ as part of the monthly Wake Up Start Up event. The center hosts that event, which showcases business start-up presentations for investors, mentors, educators and students as part of the community effort to promote entrepreneurship and technology.

Marshall is in a race with University of Connecticut physics professor, Ronald L. Mallett, since late August when he announced that his invention, the Verdrehung Fan(TM) was producing effects that indicated that it was near the first stage for becoming a time machine. Mallett, meanwhile, has yet to build a machine after ten years or more of getting publicity, a TV special and a major book deal but having only a provisional patent on a controversial design for a time machine based on the solutions for equations from Einstein's General Theory of Relativity for a rotating laser. A number of physicists have expressed doubt that the design will actually work because they feel the energy requirements have not been met that would enable the device to create the closed time-like curves that Mallett predicts. On the other hand, Marshall's design has received support and encouragement which in fact is why he pursued the project and built the device. Last month, Marshall unveiled the Verdrehung Fan(TM) in Cleveland, Ohio to a number of science classes at the Garrett Morgan School of Science and the Open Doors Academy program at the Miles Park School. Those events were sponsored in part by the newly renovated, downtown Cleveland Holiday Inn Express http://www.hiexpress.com/hotels/us/en/cleveland/cleoh/hot... in support of STEM education efforts in Cleveland schools.

Mallett will be presenting a lecture on time travel the next day at the Connecticut State Museum of Natural History, University of Connecticut in Storrs, CT and November 1st at Butler University in Indianapolis, IN. Meanwhile, Marshall will be appearing at the Universal Light Expo on October 14th and interviewed by Richard Syreet of the radio program, The Conspiracy Show, which is out of Toronto, Canada and can be heard online at

At the Technology Commercialization and Knowledge Transfer Center, Marshall will introduce the idea of time travel becoming a reality much sooner than imagined, its commercial applications and that this is just the first phase of what he says will become an American corporation concerned with the development of true 21st century technologies - beyond the expectations of the baby boomer generation when they were children.

"We will facilitate the creation of technologies that will transform this world or enable the ability to go so somewhere, somewhen else - whatever is required for the positive and constructive continuation of the human race."
