Second experiment · June 2026
Four water samples.
One exploratory question.
Could a water-powered turbine and laser setup be associated with visible differences in subsequent crystal-image observations?

The apparatus behind the four sample conditions.
The original photographs document the inline turbine, water flow, electrical connections, illuminated laser modules and meter checks used while preparing the second experiment.
Setup documentation, not an outcome measure
The meter photographs record checks of the apparatus. The crystal classifications used as the experiment’s observations are reported separately below.
Experimental design
Four conditions prepared from the same water supply.
Turbine
Turbine + 50 mW laser
Turbine + 200 mW laser
Procedure
Four samples were prepared under different conditions: untreated control water, water exposed to the turbine setup, and water exposed to the turbine while it powered either a 50 mW or 200 mW laser.
The samples were submitted for crystal photography and classification. The supplied workbook records 50 classifications for each condition.
Interpretation boundary
The project reports the supplied observations. It does not treat the resulting differences as proof that the turbine or laser caused a change in water structure.
Transport, freezing, image selection, classification and the absence of independent replication remain relevant limitations.
Reported observations
Combined hexagon classifications.
The figures combine the workbook categories “Beautiful,” “Inclined,” “Deformed” and “Simple Hexagon,” divided by 50 observations per sample.
What these results mean today
Visible differences were reported. They are exploratory observations that motivate a better-controlled test—not proof of the hypothesis.
