Ronald Pearson

          INVENTED A new kind of engine he called a Gas Wave Turbine which he subsequently developed to the demonstration stage. This occurred in two periods, but sandwiched between these he became research officer at NGTE working on jet engines. He spent the latter half of his career as a university lecturer in mechanical engineering, specialising in thermodynamics and fluid mechanics.

Switched to physics and cosmology after retirement and was to produce his theory of an all-pervading, intelligence background medium, which he terms the "i-ther". It was through his study of cosmology and physics that Pearson came to accept survival and psychic phenomena, not vise-versa. His work has been published in scientific, peer-reviewed journals in America and Russia.
