Water=UFO Fuel?

[VermisVictus]

Hydrogen is the most abundant chemical element in the universe. Why not use it for fuel? By fuel I mean an energy source to produce electricity that can be stored, not internel combustion type fuel.

Both Hydrogen and Oxygen can be extracted from water.

Here on earth, people are working on a water fuel cell. In theory, it could run forever because once the hydrogen and oxygen atoms are seperated and used, the byproduct is...water!

There are many instances of UFOs siphoning water from rivers and lakes.

So if they have perpetual water fuel cells, why would they need to suck up more water? I have two theories:

1. One of the products of the water fuel cell is oxygen. But it doesn't all get recycled into the system. Some of it is bled off for life support, atmosphere, consumption. That would have to replenished again with more water.

2. Because of reason one, more water is also needed for more hydrogen.

Now check out this clip.

Did you notice what the older lady at 2:55 said?
The craft sucked up the water and dumped water back out.

I think the UFOs take on water, seperate the hydrogen and oxygen, use the hydrogen as a power source to produce stored electricity, replenish their oxygen, then dump the used water back out.
That way they don't have to carry the weight of the water around.

Another interesting note: Two of the UFO and water stories in the link above describe airships from 1897! Electolysis, the method of extracting hydrogen from water, was developed in the 1830s(?) based on the work of Michael Faraday(1791-1867). Could the crew of these ships have been getting water to produce hydrogen for the airship?

And here I thought stupidity was the most abundant thing in the universe. Seriously very interresting theroies, I am not much on the UFO theroies or myths, legends ir facts.

Sorry could'nt help the joke beeen awake for too long.

Hey, no problem. Laughter is the best medicine.

I finally found something that briefly demonstrates a water fuel cell in action.
Most of the other examples I found went into a whole lot of technical detail. I'm not saying that someone out there wouldn't understand it.
I personally don't understand all the complex math and chemistry.

I think this video, short and to the point, shows the results more dramatically.
