RBF Definitions
"distance away in light years from the Earth, with the 200-foot
sphere’s 100-foot radius equalling that of the nearest star
other than the Sun, and assume that the cameras had photographed
only those stars visible to the naked eye, then a few of the
rods would reach outwardly ten miles, but most of them would be
much nearer in, with one of the Big Dipper’s one mile out and
another a half-mile out. It would make a vastly varied porcupine
if we intertriangularly interconnected the outer terminals of the
lines of interconnection which would as yet be in exact register
with the original grid as seen from system center.
"Now let us separate the four structures by opening up an
approximate equator in the outer ones and rejoining the equatorial
points. The celestial porcupine rolled into our deepest
ocean and then resting on the bottom, its top would reach
outwardly above the ocean surface to the height of Mt. Everest
with its densest, most high-frequency trussed spherical core
being only 200 feet in diameter and occurring at ocean surface.
The triangularly trussed 175-foot whale would hold its shape and
size as would also the 60-foot crocodile and the little 20-foot
miniature Earth. Obviously they could not appear more differently."
