VIMANAS, ancient flying technology

"Vimanas" which are the flying machines described in the ancient Indian Sanskrit epics which are a series of ancient historical writings much larger then Bible that make the construct of Hinduism. It occurs in the Sanskrit epics Yajurveda, the Ramayana, the Mahabharata, the Bhagavata Purana, as well as in classical Indian literature. These texts describe the size and the mechanical workings of the various flying machines.

They explain how they where controlled, special precautions that had to be taken on long flights, how the machines could be protected against violent storms and lightning, how to make a forced landing and even how to switch to solar energy while in flight.

Yea, and were talking thousands of years ago. Something that's very interesting is the fact that the only translations that could not be translated were the descriptions of the various metals and alloys that were used. There's lots of technical detail about the different metals, heat-absorbing metals, their melting point and the type of propulsion units that were used. There are 16 kinds of heat-absorbing metals with names like ushnambhara, ushnapaa and raajaamlatrit non of which can be translated into English.

A book written by David W .Davenport, an Englishman born in India claimed to have proof that Mohenjo Daro, which is more than 5000 years old, was destroyed by an atomic bomb of some sorts. In his book "Atomic Destruction 2000. BC" Davenport demonstrates that there were three different degrees of devastation which spread from the center outwards. Some type of enormous heat was unleashed at the center which created total destruction. Thousands of christened black stones found by archaeologists, turned out to be fragments of clay vessels which had melted into each other due to extreme heat.

The possibility of volcanic eruption is not possible because there is no evidence of hardened lava or volcanic ash. Davenport assumed that the brief intensive heat reached approximately 3632 degrees F (2000 C). He also states that there were numerous skeletons of people lying flat on the ground, often found hand in hand as if they had suddenly been overcome by an unexpected catastrophe.

Julies Verne,a writer and future thinker

Jules Gabriel Verne (French pronunciation: [ʒyl vɛʁn]; 8 February 1828 – 24 March 1905) was a French author who helped pioneer the science-fiction genre. He is best known for his novels A Journey to the Centre of the Earth (1864), From the Earth to the Moon (1865), Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea (1869–1870), Around the World in Eighty Days (1873) and The Mysterious Island (1875).

Verne wrote about space, air, and underwater travel before navigable aircraft and practical submarines were invented, and before any means of space travel had been devised. Consequently he is often referred to as the "Father of science fiction"Some of his works have been made into films.


Fact about Julies Verne on his book :

1)At the boarding school, Verne studied Latin, which he used in his short story "Le Mariage de Monsieur Anselme des Tilleuls" in the mid 1850s. One of his teachers may have been the French inventor Brutus de Villeroi, professor of drawing and mathematics at Saint Donatien in 1842, and who later became famous for creating the U.S. Navy's first submarine, the Alligator. De Villeroi may have inspired Verne's conceptual design for the Nautilus in Twenty Thousand Leagues Under The Sea, although no direct exchanges between the two men have been recorded. At Nantes in 1835, when De Villeroi and a companion submerged for two hours in a ten foot submarine, Verne was seven years old. For years afterward, De Villeroi carried on submarine experiments in Nantes

2)From the Earth to the Moon (1865), which, apart from using a space gun instead of a rocket, is uncannily similar to the real Apollo Program, as three astronauts are launched from the Florida peninsula and recovered through a splash landing. In the book, the spacecraft is launched from "Tampa Town"; Tampa, Florida is approximately 130 miles from NASA's actual launching site at Cape Canaveral.
In other works, Verne predicted the inventions of helicopters, submarines, projectors, jukeboxes, and other later devices.

3)Mysterious Island (1874) Verne predicts the development of Hydrogen engines. A group of castaways is discussing what will happen when the world's coal reserves are used up, when one of them exclaims, "Water [will replace coal]. Water broken down into its component elements by electricity. . . the hydrogen and oxygen of which it is constituted will be used to furnish an inexhaustible source of heat and light. One day, the holds of steamships and the tenders of locomotives will be filled with those two compressed gases, powering their engines with an incalculable calorific force

4) Paris in the 20th Century (1863) is an often cited example of this as it arguably describes air conditioning, automobiles, electricity, television, even the Internet, and other modern conveniences very similar to their real world counterparts.

5) most famous atwork, journey to the center of earth where at his time there is volcanology.(vermanian?)
