NASA AND ITS FINDINGS The research in this area, of which the cornerstone can be considered the study of 2003, lasting 4 years, conduct- ed at NASA’s laboratories by Dr. Thomas Goodwin, PhD on the ability of pulsed magnetic fi elds to improve the growth and repair of tissues in mammals, has led to the development of the technol- ogy at the base of RiEnergy that, in fact, technologically replaces the Earth’s nat- ural frequencies with similar electroni- NASA & ROSCOSMOS cally generated signals. Both the governmental body responsible for the space sci- ence program of Russia and NASA have studied and de- tected the changes of astronauts as a result of their long stays in space, even for relatively short periods of time.
