There’s no doubt in my mind that Lazar’s story is a hoax or perhaps a disinformation operation of some kind: he clearly lied about his academic credentials, which is irrefutable from the public records compiled in the Lazar Timeline. So his far more flamboyant claims must also be lies.
But the author of that article above has no idea what he’s talking about when he says:
“It [Moscovium, aka element 115] has a very short half-life so there is no way to accumulate pounds of it. It has a verifiable half-life of only 220 milliseconds. They now known half-life of the element destroys any childish idea of the “Island of Stability” hypothesis. “
Wrong and wrong. Nuclear physicists at the Joint Institute of Nuclear Research (JINR) in Dubna, Russia (the leading team in the world with superheavy element synthesis), have only managed to synthesize four unstable isotopes of Moscovium.
There are much more stable isotopes of Moscovium awaiting discovery. It’s easy to see this because the isotopes of Moscovium become increasingly stable with higher numbers of neutrons. Some of the very heavy neutron-rich isotopes will be much more stable than the ones we’ve seen so far. But we don’t have the technology to synthesize those isotopes, which are on the Island of Stability. It’s probably going to take a new generation of pulsed nuclear reactor to synthesize isotopes which reside on the island.
The island of stability definitely exists. And the top researchers in the field predict that some of the isotopes on the island, including Moscovium isotopes, are expected to have half-lives on the order of thousands or even millions of years:
“Some new calculations indicate that on the map of nuclei heavyweights form a large enough area, called the “Island of Stability” of superheavy elements (see Fig.1). In the region where the liquid-drop model predicted that the nuclei should decay within 10e^-19 sec, now the half-lives of «long-lived» nuclei at the peak of the island of stability are expected to reach thousands and even millions of years”

There are plenty of legitimate ways to debunk Bob Lazar’s claims. Misrepresenting the status of nuclear physics research and the existence of the island of stability is not one of those ways.
No you're not reading it right. Theoretical predictions put Z = 114 and N = 184 at the center of the island of stability (and another island is predicted around Z = 120-130). Moscovium is only one proton above that and still well within the island of stability. Various theoretical models predict a dizzying range of half-lives in that region, and we won't know which ones are right until we synthesize the neutron-rich isotopes of Moscovium, which we don't have the technology to do yet.Except a proton number of 115 (Muscovium) is a bit north of the best estimates where that island might be at around N = 184. See Figure 4 of Karpov & Zagrabaev (2012).

comeback? i din't even see a mainstream review of his book, i don't call that a comebackImbrogno appears to want to make a comeback. He released a book called "Strange Heavens" in December 2018. Maybe he feels the coast is clear now.
On Amazon, it has only one review.comeback? i din't even see a mainstream review of his book, i don't call that a comeback
yep, sounds about rightOn Amazon, it has only one review.
I like Nick Redfern's take. He's a dupe manipulated to disseminate disinformation.I wonder if we will ever get the truth about Lazar? I have a feeling that he's going to go the way of Roswell (we will never know).
I think it's crystal clear from The Lazar Timeline that his story is fake; I'm shocked that anyone could be on the fence about it at this point - the data is damning.I like Nick Redfern's take. He's a dupe manipulated to disseminate disinformation.
That's what I am leaning towards. Remember, AFOSI was very active in disinformation at the time..
How about Lazar's pals John Lear and Gene Huff? Lear himself seems like a very ripe target for disinformation, he absolutely runs with it. Same for Linda Moulton Howe. I respect her 1970's and 80's investigation of cattle mutilation but sadly she has plunged headlong into the abyss since that time.
the story is obviously bogus, the question here is why? was thomas mahood correct and he was trying to cover up a secret military project involving air ionization? wich is what john lear and friends captured?I wonder if we will ever get the truth about Lazar? I have a feeling that he's going to go the way of Roswell (we will never know).
john lear, one of the main victims, today he is a absolute nut that believes that every planet in the solar system is habitable and that gas giants doesn't exist, it just goes worse from therehere's just what I know about:
There were probably quite a few others that never managed to surface. Who did I miss?
- Bennewitz, as documented by Greg Bishop and others. A major gaslighting campaign that drove the man over the edge.
- Bill Moore (who thought he was helping to gaslight Bennewitz, but was being set up himself)
- Linda Moulton Howe (on the Roswell case, also in Bishops's book)
- Simone Mendez (not sure if she was original target, but it seems likely).
- UFO Coverup Live
- Howard Blum (possibly) for his book "Out There".
- Jacques Vallee, although he recognized it for what it was at the time. See his book "Revelations".
- Bob Lazar? I think it's likely, but the connection has not been made. Corbell claims Lazar is not fantasy prone, but he's hardly a person qualified to evaluate that. It's certainly a fantasy that Lazar went to Caltech - does he actually believe he did?
very sad too, the cattle mutilation phenomena is one of the main pillars of the UFO phenomena, it has been going since at least the point pleasant days but was only investigated seriously beggining in 1973Nail on the head dude, Howe lost her mind a decade ago.
