Good question. Nano foot would be one billionth of a standard foot. Is it , "Buck". I apologize if I don't have your name correct. I am a fairly frugal guy. I really enjoy the high end but feel that I have spent my money wisely.

I have personally invested at least 100,000.00 of my own money in this Project. It's real. For many years I stood ready to cancel it if I could have found a flaw. In addition, I doubted anyone would believe it. But now there is a huge organization that "believes". I want you to be skeptical. I would be.

Now to explain the significance of the "nano foot". The structure is best understood in feet not meters and so I used "nano foot" simply to indicate how precise the structure is.

Take the height of the wall. It is exactly 10.5'. The National Institute of Standards is the U.S. organization that has the length defined or known as, a "foot". Now if you could measure 10.5 of them in order to build this wall there would inevitably some infinitesimal error. However, the height of this wall is exactly 10.5'. There would be no error if built by the aliens. Now I understand there may be an extremely small difference between an alien foot and a human foot length. That is not the point. The point is that alien measurements are exact. No error. Human measurements can only be approximate, meaning there will always be some small error. That's why the structure can only be approximated but we can give an excellent approximation and I believe we have done so.

From the outside. Doors open inward. Note the corrected door height. All doors must be square. All structures are squares rectangles cubes or 3-D rectangles. Behind the wall you see in the distance is where all the structures like the galleries are located. Between the two walls is the Yard.


Corrected door and gatepost height as seen from inside the wall.


Inside the walls of this immense structure everything is green and sterile. No viruses, fungi, mold, bird droppings, rain or "weather", or bacteria allowed. The human body has 1.5 trillion bacteria on the skin alone. Our bodies are vile to them. Very sad. Their bodies are 100% green and 100% efficient. Essentially, they produce no waste. Humans are the chief polluters of the earth. If what I am saying about them is true, what do you think their impression of humanity might be? Gives for thought.


Thank you so much for your question and your interest. I hope to be getting in some more pics soon. I spent all morning long (was up at 5 am) correcting the Utility rooms. These are huge rooms. Although we know something about them we do not know enough to know the technology for clothes and dishwashing. This has caused us significant difficulty. Finally we decided to remain mute rather than speculate. Then I noticed that the cabinets, sinks, etc. were sort of "thrown in" as an afterthought. The artist has done a magnificent overall job. We will get this fixed. Hopefully things will be finished by end of November.

Best

Charles

So we know what an alien foot length is? We know they even have feet? And they use feet to measure, just like us? I would have thought they’d be a bit more advanced than that.

Another question Charles, what about all the plants, trees and grass? If there are no bacteria, and everything is sterile, how is there soil for green plants?

As to the measuring system, ours came from observable features of nature and our own bodies.

Base 60 time we inherited from the Sumerian civilization? 3 joints per each digit (knuckles per finger and toe) so 60 in total. Counting on fingers and toes was very handy.

A kilogram was how much one Liter of water at freezing point would weigh.

A meter is defined as one-ten-millionth of the distance between the North Pole and the equator although I have no idea how they came up with that.

In summary it would be unlikely that an Alien measuring system would be even close to ours but I am confident that an advanced civilization would have an ultra precise system of measuring.

We tend to equate and benchmark everything outside ourselves as somehow conforming to our standards and that applies to morals and ethics. Our society defines what is appropriate/moral/ethical behavior and what is NOT.

So forgive the ET if he finds us tasty and don't be surprised if the ET thinks nothing of jamming probes, running experiments or decides to alter our DNA, take over our planet or any other behavior we may find unacceptable. We ourselves have not exactly been kind to each other over the centuries. Spanish Inquisitions alone are nightmare worthy not to even mention the other atrocities and wars and we talk about ET...

ET would not be happy with a "foot".

Our English foot has not been so constant. The U. S. Congress legalized the use of the metric system in 1866 on the basis that one meter is exactly equal to 39.37 inches. In 1959 a number of English-speaking countries agreed that an inch is exactly equal to 2.54 centimeters so that the International foot is exactly equal to 0.3048 meters. The United States retained the old 1866 equivalency and called it the U. S. Survey foot so that 1 U. S. Survey foot equals 1.000002 International feet.
