Special Report: Thermite Fingerprint

Dr. Steven Jones and Kevin Ryan are among several authors of a new paper that has appeared in the prestigious scientific journal "The Open Chemical Physics Journal" and is titled "Active Thermitic Material Discovered in Dust from the 9/11 World Trade Center Catastrophe."

Abstract:
We have discovered distinctive red/gray chips in all the samples we have studied of the dust produced by the destruction of the World Trade Center. Examination of four of these samples, collected from separate sites, is reported in this paper. These red/gray chips show marked similarities in all four samples. One sample was collected by a Manhattan resident about ten minutes after the collapse of the second WTC Tower, two the next day, and a fourth about a week later. The properties of these chips were analyzed using optical microscopy, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray energy dispersive spectroscopy (XEDS), and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). The red material contains grains approximately 100 nm across which are largely iron oxide, while aluminum is contained in tiny plate-like structures. Separation of components using methyl ethyl ketone demonstrated that elemental aluminum is present. The iron oxide and aluminum are intimately mixed in the red material. When ignited in a DSC device the chips exhibit large but narrow exotherms occurring at approximately 430 °C, far below the normal ignition temperature for conventional thermite. Numerous iron-rich spheres are clearly observed in the residue following the ignition of these peculiar red/gray chips. The red portion of these chips is found to be an unreacted thermitic material and highly energetic.

"Based on these observations, we conclude that the red layer of the red/gray chips we have discovered in the WTC dust is active, unreacted thermitic material, incorporating nanotechnology, and is a highly energetic pyrotechnic or explosive material."

"In short, the paper explodes the official story that 'no evidence' exists for explosive/pyrotechnic materials in the WTC buildings."
The red/gray chips are the "loaded gun" of 9-11."
-- Dr. Steven Jones

Visibilility 9-11 Welcomes Chemist Dr. Niels H. Harrit

Visibility 9-11 continues our Special Report on the new research paper titled Active Thermitic Material Discovered in Dust from the 9/11 World Trade Center Catastrophe and features an interview with Danish chemist Dr. Niels H. Harrit.  Dr. Harrit is an associate professor of chemistry at the University of Copenhagen in Denmark and is the author/or co-author of nearly 60 peer reviewed scientific papers.  Dr. Harrit has also served on numerous occasions as a peer reviewer/referee for scientific papers written by others.  My guest today is also a member of Scholars for 9-11 Truth and Justice and actively tours Denmark lecturing on his discoveries into the 9-11 cover-up. 

Our talk today with Dr. Harrit features an in-depth discussion on a new paper which has been formally published and peer reviewed by The Open Chemical Physics Journal titled Active Thermitic Material Discovered in Dust from the 9/11 World Trade Center Catastrophe.  In this revolutionary new research paper, discoveries made in the World Trade Center Dust, particularly the red/gray bi-layered chips, are examined in great detail and include evidence of the thermite fingerprint at every juncture.

The research paper ends with this sentence, which pulls no punches when it comes to what the authors believe these red/gray chips to be: 

"Based on these observations, we conclude that the red layer of the red/gray chips we have discovered in the WTC dust is active, unreacted thermitic material, incorporating nanotechnology, and is a highly energetic pyrotechnic or explosive material."

Dr. Steven E. Jones, co-author of the paper writes: 

"In short, the paper explodes the official story that Ãno evidenceà exists for explosive/pyrotechnic materials in the WTC buildings."  The red/gray chips are the "loaded gun" of  9-11.

Visibility 9-11 Welcomes Back Dr. Steven E. Jones


This episode of Visibility 9-11 welcomes back to the program, Physicist Dr. Steven E. Jones. 

Dr. Jones is a retired physics professor and first emerged in late 2005 with his important paper Why Indeed Did the World Trade Center Buildings Completely Collapse?, and has continued to do groundbreaking research into the "collapses" of all three high rise buildings on September 11th, 2001. 

Dr. Jones both sits as co-editor at the Journal of 9-11 Studies and is the founder of Scholars for 9-11 Truth and Justice.  He has been a stalwart in the scientific and scholarly area of the 9-11 Truth Movement.

Our talks today with Dr. Jones features an in-depth discussion on a new paper which has been formally published and peer reviewed by The Open Chemical Physics Journal titled Active Thermitic Material Discovered in Dust from the 9/11 World Trade Center Catastrophe.  In this revolutionary new research paper, discoveries made in the World Trade Center Dust, particularly the red/gray bi-layered chips, are examined in great detail and include evidence of the thermite fingerprint at every juncture.

Dr. Steven E. Jones, co-author of the paper writes: 

"In short, the paper explodes the official story that âno evidenceâ exists for explosive/pyrotechnic materials in the WTC buildings."  The red/gray chips are the "loaded gun" of  9-11.

Visibility 9-11 Welcomes Back Kevin Ryan


This episode of Visibility 9-11 welcomes back to the program, Kevin Ryan

Kevin is a chemist and is formerly of Underwriter Laboratories and became a 9-11 whistleblower when he was fired for writing his now infamous 2004 letter  to Frank Gayle at the National Institute for Standards and Technology (NIST).  Kevin has been very prolific in his research since getting fired by UL and has either authored or co-authored many important papers relating to 9-11 since 2004.

Kevin sits as a co-editor at the Journal of 9-11 Studies and has been a stalwart in the scientific and scholarly area of the 9-11 Truth Movement.

Our talk today with Kevin features an in-depth discussion on a new paper which has been formally published and peer reviewed by The Open Chemical Physics Journal titled Active Thermitic Material Discovered in Dust from the 9/11 World Trade Center Catastrophe.  In this revolutionary new research paper, discoveries made in the World Trade Center Dust, particularly the red/gray bi-layered chips, are examined in great detail and include evidence of the thermite fingerprint at every juncture.

"Based on these observations, we conclude that the red layer of the red/gray chips we have discovered in the WTC dust is active, unreacted thermitic material, incorporating nanotechnology, and is a highly energetic pyrotechnic or explosive material."

Kevin Ryan, one of the co-authors of the research paper says,

"My colleagues and I have a new mainstream peer-reviewed paper published today, entitled "Active Thermitic Material Discovered in Dust From the 9/11 World Trade Center Catastrophe".  Basically it shows that high tech explosive/pyrotechnic materials are scattered throughout the WTC dust.  How can this be?"
