KB>NC> Has anybody ever heard of the "Manhattan Project", a supposed
incident where a project developed by Einstein caused a ship to be
instantly transported across 300 miles of sea. The crew apparently went
mad and Einstein burned all his notes regarding the work. Does anybody
know any further details about this incident?
KB> I have heard of it but know no more than you do. I would imagine
Aubrey Scoon will know about it (and maybe others on here too).. I will
forward your message to Aubrey.
Sure. Who sent the original BTW ?
Its not the "Manhattan Project", that was the code name for
Oppenheimer's team at Los Alamos when they built the first atomic bomb.
Rumour has it, it was so called because they reckoned the bomb would be
powerful enough to destroy an area the size of Manhattan island.....
Anyway, thats beside the point. The thing is question here is often
called the "Philadelphia Experiment" (even had a film made about it -
fictional of course !). The original incident it was derived from was
called "The Allende Letters". The incident is rather interesting:
It started when a leading Astrophysicist, Morris K. Jessup tried to
form a scientific team to investigate Einstein's unified field theory. He
was convinced it had practical application and could be used to develop
several devices including a possible teleporter ! I must point out at
this stage that Jessup was a respected scientist with a proven track
record of making outstanding discoveries, so he was no crank.
Jessup suddenly started receiving letters from someone called Carlos
Allende who in a nutshell warned him to drop his research because it had
already been done with horrifying consequences. Allende described how the
US Navy tried to teleport a ship from Philadelphia harbour to Norfolk
(USA). The ship allegedly did teleport but didn't STAY at Norfolk, it
flipped back to Philadelphia again. The experiment at that point was out
of control, the crew on the ship were badly affected, several men died
for no apparent reason, 3 burst into spontaneous combustion and burnt up
and two literally became semi visible (transparent) and vanished ! Most
of the remaining crew members were supposedly committed to an insane
asylum in a catatonic state.
Interestingly enough there are several eye witness accounts
(independently verified) that attested to the two missing sailors
literally appearing out of thin air in a Philadelphia bar and then
walking THROUGH the wall! That formed the basis for the film.
All this seems utterly ridiculous except that Allende later supplied
a comprehensive list of personnel involved, both in the experiment and
witnesses on other Naval observation ships. The two sailors he named as
having disappeared DID apparently disappear that day without trace. The
dead men were in fact registered as having been killed in an ammo
explosion at a Naval base !
The office of Naval research became interested in what was going on
but refused to discuss any of the claims. They later asked Jessup for
help in tracing Allende (who was very elusive) but they didn't find him.
Several other people started investigating this case including
several UFO researchers after someone claimed that there was a UFO
involved somewhere ! One such researcher (I think his name was Yankee)
claimed that strange people were following him (Men in Black) and trying
to kill him to prevent him publishing evidence linking the Navy to the
experiment, he claimed they had killed several other investigators and
made it look like suicide. Others said similar things.
Eventually, Jessup himself announced that someone was after him
(mysterious Men in Black) and that they were trying to kill him. He asked
the police for protection but they didn't believe him. The next day
Jessup was found dead in his car with a hose from the exhaust attached !
There have been other reports of researchers investigating this
incident since with other bizarre happenings.
One interesting aside to all this was that Allende was never taken
very seriously because Einstein died before he finished his Unified Field
Theory. He was working on it in hospital at the time. In 1988 a hospital
in Israel was donated a lot of old material from the hospital Einstein
died in in the states. Among the stuff was an old safe, the keys of which
had been lost. When they finally opened the safe they found several
hundred pages of Einstein's original notes on the UFT, showing he had
made a lot more progress than anyone had thought. Apparently the notes
had been locked in the safe a couple of weeks before he died and
forgotten, the key having been lost. The notes refer to another set which
apparently complete the theory but have never been found..... The notes
have now been donated to the Israeli Science Research institute.
Aubrey.
