In this our third newsletter we bring an article by Richard Anderson keeping us up to date with the research of Santilli to develop new alternatives for ecologically friendly energy up to December 2008. The message of this article concerns us all. In an editorial article February 28th New Scientist writes:
“Despite the numerous warnings about extreme weather, rising sea levels and mass extinctions, one message seems to have got lost in the debate about the impact of climate change. A warmer world won’t just be inconvenient. Huge swathes of it, including most of Europe, the US and Australia as well as all of Africa and China will actually be uninhabitable – too hot, dry or stormy to sustain a human population.
This is no mirage. It could materialise if the world warms by an average of just 4 degrees Celsius, which some models predict could happen as soon as 2050. This is the world our children and grandchildren are going to have to live in.”
For most of those scientists who really have studied it, hadronic mechanics represents compared to quantum mechanics an advancement and a gigantic step forwards in physics. While relativity theory and quantum theory have dominated the physics of last century, there are reasons to regard hadronic physics as representative of the physics of the 21st century. And as regards the future of mankind and the possibilities for our descendants to inhabit a hospitable and climatically friendly planet, it represents a hope for new solutions of the energy crisis facing us that will make this possible.
Santilli received economical support for his research from the US Department of Energy under the Carter administration at the end of the 1970’s. It was at that time we seriously started to realise the pending environmental and climate crisis. Knowing that the supply of fossil fuels inevitably would come to an end, we anyhow had to start looking for alternatives in order to avoid a future energy crisis. The Carter administration rightly deserves honour for the support that allowed Santilli to start his research project. But what happened later? Richard Anderson gives a short but extensive description of the massive resistance Santilli and his research met from 1980 onwards, forcing him to leave Harvard University and later settle in Florida where he established his own private research institute. He was excluded from participating in officially supported scientific meetings, not allowed to publish in acknowledged scientific journals and even in violence of federal law not allowed to update his contributions in the federal scientific archive. All of this is well documented. It has served to block knowledge about Santilli’s research. But to day it is hitting back. In Europe “shocked” scientists are now working to bring documentation about this out to the public.
Why has Santilli and his research been so thoroughly and systematically counterworked? To day when we really start seeing the consequences of the policy that has been at play, this is a question concerning us all. Of course, it is an old experience that it may cost a lot to bring something new that apparently is challenging established knowledge. Many physicists in leading positions may believe that quantum theory and relativity theory, as they are usually taught to day, not only are hypotheses and theories, but actually constitute the very scientific reality which can not really be questioned. However, although the new mathematics, physics and chemistry of Santilli may appear controversial and provocative, it is difficult to explain the systematic campaign against him on such an academic, scientific basis. We have to suspect that behind this campaign and persecution there may be more powerful interests. What kind of economical and power political interests that may have been involved, we do not know.

To day we may be facing a turning point. January 22nd of this year Santilli received in Napoli the Mediterranean Science and Research Award 2009 with gold medal. This prestigious price has only been awarded twice earlier. And behind it stands 561 scientific and cultural institutions, including 168 universities, with ties to the Mediterranean countries. According to the organisation itself “this price is considered one of the higher and more prestigious in the world”. In the official motivation for the price it is stated “To Prof. Ruggero Maria Santilli we hereby grant this 2009 Gold Price for his scientific discoveries and for advances in mathematics, physics and chemistry that have allowed the development of new technologies for the benefit of new sustainable environmental technologies.” In connection with this award Santilli has given a series of lectures in Italy and Italian media have paid homage to him. This is certainly very well deserved, not only because of his genius and scientific creativity, but because he has managed to fight his cause in spite of the massive antagonism he has met. At the same time it has been made public that the first major ‘eco-refinery’ for production of ‘magnegas’ in the world is now being built in Benevento.
Even more important: the need for new technologies to meet the energy and climatic crisis is now acute and widely recognised. And both the Chinese and the Russians are now engaged in the development of new technologies based on hadronic mechanics and hadronic chemistry. Some 15 months ago the transfer of information about hadronic physics to China was attempted blocked on the internet. Apparently it did not succeed. And, according to the article by Anderson, the Chinese now are doing advanced research in this field “yet to be initiated in the USA due to notorious oppositions”. The power political and economical interests that may have been involved in the campaign against Santilli, to day have to realise that they have failed. This gives us a reasonable hope that the nations of the Earth now may cooperate to develop this new technology in the common interests of mankind.
In this newsletter we bring also an article on biological transmutations. This is a scientific field that did not succeed to be integrated into academic science because seemed to be at odds with basic tenets of chemistry. The research on biological transmutations revealed biological facts that now may get renewed interest in the light of hadronic mechanics. We may here talk about scientific facts that apparently did not fit accepted scientific theories, but which now may get a proper scientific explanation from a new theory. Facts are the basic ground of science, not theories. We ought to heed Kervran’s words that what characterises a true scientist is the decisive respect for facts. This is as much a decisive criteria to day as it always has been.
Bjørn Øverbye follows up his article from our last newsletter about the history of bio-resonance medicine. The persecution of Rife and his collaborators and the destruction of his microscopes, journals and documentation provide evidence that criminal methods apparently has been used in the United States to stop scientific developments that may have been perceived as threats to the interests of powerful groups. The story is to some degree a parallel to the story about Vitamin B-17, ‘The Merciless Fight about Cancer Therapy’, which we wrote about in our newsletter in September 2008. From a scientific standpoint the problem is that the possibility for an objective scientific evaluation is destroyed. In the case of Rife we may have lost valuable possibilities for new medical insight and better alternatives in the treatment of cancer. In the case of Santilli the issue is even more serious as it may concern the future of mankind at a friendly globe.
