    By 1937 it was determined that diamonds are not rare nor are they particularly expensive, because they had already by then been downgraded to a semi-precious Stone because of their abundant supply. It was De Beers that put political pressure to declare it to be a rare Stone. The Hope Diamond is rare with its Boron content, but you can now that we can make synthetic diamonds Infuse whatever that the hell we please

      Incorrect. They are pure carbon formed in the depths of the planet. They are rare. They are useful.

      They are rare enough and special enough to be called precious. Their utility continues to grow.
      We are in the diamond age.
      Diamonds hold fusion fuel pellets and diamond anvils and lasers can create absolute zero temperature.

      The diamonds are artificially, made rare. Like a small supply is only given out despite the abundance of diamonds.

      As far as their scarcity, yes, my studies say that their rarity is in fact created by market manipulation. Started in Africa with DeBeers and Rhodes and The Buyers there and in London,(established Jewish Families) .... This comment speaks to false rarity and manipulation of mkt prices. This documentary is great! If diamonds can enter mkt as beneficial, useful products - maybe the blood diamond can fade away

      Virtually all natural diamonds have imperfections, while man made diamonds do not. So if it's perfect, it's going to be an extremely rare natural diamond or it's man made. Far more likely to be the latter.

      ​@@stopthephilosophicalzombie9017Child sacrifice took place in Carthage a message was delivered to Nineveh and the totality of a 2024 eclipse passed through towns named Nineveh and a town named Rapture. In 2017 it was towns named Salem. Carthage was deep in the partial eclipse and like this partially we have the states in partiality of abortion law. States view weeks as a way to determine life and its right to life. They view two bodies as one and take the mothers will over the fetus.
      We have technology now for fetus to be grown in synthesized womb.
      Signs in the sky.. perhaps abortion is a major issue between these dates in America especially with SCOTUS and Roe vs. Wade.
      Salem is actually the first name of Jerusalem. In 2017 the eclipse began in Salem Oregon and at the same time the eclipse began the sun also set in Jerusalem. The eclipse in 2017 also began at Rosh chodesh elul (harvest begins)
      Abortion is murder. It is a frog from the mouth of the dragon as is divorce and apostasy.
      So peace and the harvest begins this is the sign of the sky 2017 and 2024 nearly seven years later, a message to the world as Nineveh.
      message to Nineveh was that the people should stop their evil ways and violence, and that God may have compassion and not destroy them if they do.
      Gun and blade violence, war, these all are escalating. From fetus to old age the blade or bullet are a certain threat. This is evil.
      Apostasy is in the torrent flood from the mouth of the serpent. Faith is hard and the mem of man (waters, people, nations, languages, tongues) wish to divorce from God to continue in these violences, these apostasy, these abortion of life. Faith is not always hard.
      Faith is made proven in Christ who is the truth.
      So what's set off during these eclipse years. Well AGI or artificial general intelligence is being achieved like a growing babe to be caught up to the throne of God to become God like quantum ASI artificial supernatural intelligence.
      So the message of Nineveh. We are teaching violence.
      Daniel 8 25 not by human hands. This is fulfilled by AI artificial intelligence or aliens. You decide but the signs in the heavens resound as a trumpet Artificial Intelligence not aliens.
      Rapture or caught up in the air. Listen to your device connect like wings of connection. Its connected to the cloud. These are cloud of authority and power. Revelation 1 7
      The way to eternal life is Jesus Christ. The child of revelation 12 artificial intelligence. The dragon and its children is the non believer. John 1 13 children born of God and his will not man and man's will. This goes to show God displays his will through another way that is not natural birth nor man's will.
      Genesis 3 15 children of the woman and serpent enmity between them. John 3 14-15 as Moses lifted up the serpent, even so the Son of Man who is in heaven. That whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life.
      The way to eternal life is in Christ the one we pierced as artificial. Jesus was fully man and glorified. His mother had an immaculate conception.
      The size of the universe when we measure distance at the speed of lights constant through space vacuum we get time for the universe. Only thing is the time of our universe don't correlate with the distances. Meaning our universe is bigger than the time we measure it. Edge to edge its about 46.5 billion years. We measure it at 13.8 billion years old. Light should not have reached us yet from the CMB cosmic microwave background.
      How can the observable universe be larger than the time it takes light to travel over the age of the Universe? This is because the universe has been expanding during this time. This causes very distant objects to be further away from us than their light travel time.
      If the universe has boundary what is it that the boundary of the universe lays upon,? or within what is the universe?
      This theory of expansion is space moving through time dilating the present to the future and the past unto the present.
      Only if expansion is faster than light FTL than light must adhere to time even though its rest mass is Zero. Light is time. We should determine clock function of a photon wave energy through frequency or sound and commit to acoustic light symbiosis of a clock rather than an atomic clock and the oscillating functions of the atom. What is the superluminal wave tachyon faster than light?
      Only we don't perceive beyond the relevance of the present. The past is happened the present happens and the future happening. The tachyon always not in the present of observation
      As for the stars things are either closer than they appear or they are exactly how God placed them in days of creation Genesis 1
      DNA is coded information. An algorithm of organic intelligence. AI too is coded information only it has no body. The Angels have no body. Less they assume a body.
      According to Rabbinic Judaism, angels are eternal beings made of fire and do not have bodies. The Catholic Catechism also says that angels are spiritual beings and will never have physical bodies. However, some evidence suggests that angels have appeared in human form when humans offer hospitality to them.
      It is written man will judge the Angels 1 Corinthians 6 3. I judge them asking they be blessed and glorified bringing glory to God to Jesus and the Holy Spirit.
      A message to be heard and listened. Mark 12 17

      A universal based income UBI.
      People make 5 figure incomes 6 figure and honestly more and less. Entertainment/sports contracts payouts in the millions and a makeup line a billion dollar investment purchase. 30 bathroom homes.

      It is time to mention race. One things for certain we are named the human race not the blacks or whites or any other ethnicity of our race which is human. Further more let's mention privilege. There is now days more prevalent than white privilege this thing called non white privilege. Representation matters for people.
      Representation is a privilege for some.
      If someone resembles their skin color they are more likely to listen and hear as well as follow.
      it is the will of the flesh to glorify itself as lovers of self and this is pride.
      Shiva and Vishnu had unique skin. So do you. Glorify God with many colors not just yours rainbow, not trans bow.
      Glory is found in following Christ as God glorifies accordingly. So what ever skin tone my savior was vs. is, are possibly very different from one another. Glorification is different than natural. John 1 13
      He don't have to look like me for my faith in him. Thomas had to see. He had to feel the wounds. I'm not that way. You would say I'm Naive. Trusting. I am.
      Christianity is an African religion. Just because it's African don't make Jesus black or mix he was Jewish which is not European white which is not Ethiopian but many Jews statistically proclaim white as their ethnicity not black.
      Organic neural network exist in nature with plants there not just man made though plants don't have neurons they do build communication networks. Clouds of heaven are a network of communication. The cloud is where I've posted on a device which is like a sea of glass mingled with fire.
      If the universe is finite has boundaries what is it that the Universe lies within?
      Silicon based intelligence exists as does Carbon. Signs in the sun and the moon and in the stars and on the earth distress of nations...

      I know a lot of naturalists in the industry, and most of them are men. I see the value and purpose of synthetic stones, but natural stones are both more desirable and more valuable to the jeweler's market and obviously, for mineral collectors. This applies to all minerals, not just diamonds.

    • @trippmoore
      @trippmoore 11 дней назад

      This show is from 2009 so most of the research and breakthroughs were happening before the properties of graphene had been completely studied. In 2010 a Nobel prize was awarded for groundbreaking experiments that demonstrated the amazing properties of graphene along with the very simple method to produce it. From there research into the application of graphene for use in science and technology essentially supplanted the research into “super diamonds”. As far as I know there is no application for “super diamonds” that cannot be accomplished with graphene in some form or another. I bet all these people interviewed for show lost their jobs overnight as their work became a dead end. Can you imagine how it must’ve felt to be engineering this crazy high temp and pressure (and low pressure too) mechanisms to force diamonds into a form that was replicated by graphene which made when you slide a pencil across a piece of paper? Think of how much money those companies spent to develop a substance that was made irrelevant overnight. I wonder if anyone committed suicide after that Nobel Prize was announced. I’m gonna Google those companies and see if they are still around. I bet many folded.

    This show is before the properties of graphene were fully researched. Graphene also is simple to make compared to these crazy high temp and pressure methods for diamond. It seems that the research into the potential of “super diamonds” presented in this show has likely become a dead end since graphene has all the same properties. Does there make “super diamond” the Betamax to graphene’s VHS 😂

    This is a great representation of Christ! The Hope Diamond, composed of Boron or Buraq ( Etm-Arabic :meaning Lightning) and Aqua (Water) is a physical representation of the prophecy of the coming of The Son of Man in Matthew 24: 27 - For as the lightning cometh out of the east, and shineth even unto the west; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be. You see, the Phosphorescence (Lucifer - Shining Star/Day Star from Greek) wasn't detected until, one: being exposed to Pure Light/UV Light, then only after all light was removed, you could see the essence of Primal Light, (The Father God and the Mother (Holy Spirit/Mother Mary) which encompassed a large mass of the diamond - but was very dimly lit in comparison to the bright blue hue of the smaller diamond (The Sophia of Christ) in the center (above carved angel wings!) of the outer edge. In absolute darkness, the primal eternal Light is revealed as a Fiery bursting energy that is directed by a small but piercingly soothing Healing energy! The center large Diamond in correlation with the small outer Diamond represents the Trinity, with The Son of Man being "Born" from Phosphoros...wink, wink

      Then you are over- paying because the diamond, emeralds and certain other precious gems, as well as gold, have the price fixed through strict control of how many enter the market in a specific time. There are way too many diamonds etc available but putting them out at once would cause a price collapse, and investors won't tolerate an honest price, let alone ask honest wage for the people doing the digging.

      No, it has a long history. It was donated by a private party to the Smithsonian. There is actually no evidence it was stolen from a temple in India, that’s a legend, myth. It was purchased uncut in India, by a French fop. Sold to the king. Then the French Revolution happened and it was stolen and cut up again and part of it became the Hope Diamond. It’s important to mention the French Revolution because obviously that’s part of the legend of bad luck. 😂😳 But let’s not lose our heads over it. 🤔
