Philadelphia Experiment – Whether it is true or not, this story is one that will intrigue many people. It occurred during the middle of World War II, involved Einstein, and used theories that are just now starting to come into light. The concept focused around time travel, and teleportation. The idea behind the experiment was for a warship to become invisible to sonar. During the testing something went horribly wrong, and a cover-up soon followed. This case has it all; famous people, an American government cover-up, World War II, and science write from the sci-fi channel.
Before you read any further you must have an open mind, a clear understanding science at the time of World War II, and understand that these stories are meant to look like hoaxes when they are finally exposed. It occurred sometime around October 28th 1943. In the height of the experiments taking place worldwide during WWII. Lots of different tests were going on all around the world, countries hoping to make the next best weapon that would end the war, or lead to their total control of the world.
Einstein who fled Germany right before the beginning of Poland’s invasion by Germany, was lucky to be alive, and probably felt that he needed to attack back at Germany for their treatment of him and other Jewish people. He was also very familiar with the many different dimensions in the universe that we still have no clue about. There are so many new theories coming out now, with quantum theory that it almost seems possible to do what they did on the fateful day.
What happened on October 28th was they had made the ship disappear from the Philadelphia Navy Shipyard and reappeared in Norfolk, Virginia shipyard for a few minutes before being seen again in Philadelphia. The ship was the USS Eldridge, and the experiments leading up to the actual case on Oct 28th were focusing around invisibility and they had almost accomplished the task in July of that year when the ship turn into a greenish fog but many sailors on board complained of nausea and the experiments came to a halt until October. When the ship had come back to the Philadelphia shipyard much of the crew suffered from different sorts of mental illness, some had just vanished, and even more disturbing; five had been fused with the metal on the ship. Their bodies were sticking out in one room and then another. Apparently the survivors were brainwashed, men in black style, and discharged from the navy. There was also a story of two brothers who had jump ship during the transportation and had landed in the year 1983 where they were interrogated by the scientist who were involved in the case but 40 years older.
After experiment the story was swept under the carpet, in 1955 a graduate student who had just published a book on UFOs received a letter from a person called Carlos Allende. He told him everything about the ship and that he was on another merchant ship, he could also give out all this information to him if he would contact him. After trying to contact him his name had changed and he wanted to be hypnotized to recall everything; the graduate student, Morris Jessup, soon cut off ties with him. He would later get a job at a the Office of Naval Research where he would find a letter marked “Happy Easter,” with his book in it. Inside the book were three different color pen markings all over the book with quotations about his work. The quotations seem to be a conversation about his work between the three different writers, one quotation stated, “He has no knowledge, he could not have, only guessing.” Referring to his UFO work in the book. Awhile later he would fail trying to get rich off his next book and soon died in 1959.
Overtime various other researchers would publish books, and make movies similar to the Philadelphia Experiment theory. Still there have been documents supporting that the Eldridge was not in Philadelphia at the actual time of the ship’s disappearance. There has also be evidence showing that Nikola Tesla was close to publishing a report on the unified field theory, which the experiment was based around, but he had died in 1943 and the papers were taking away by the FBI. This could be the reason for the experiment. As for my own theory, the story became extremely popular during the height of the Cold War. It could’ve perfect propaganda for the US. Of course the US can come up with documents to show the ship was somewhere else, and there are many other ways they could avoid testifying to the truth. Claiming that Carlos was crazy would also help them out a lot, but remember they did experiments on the survivors who had lived in order to try and make them forget. So in essence they would be crazy. If this did happen, which it probably did because of all the scientific happenings that occurred during World War II, it would be a piece of cake for the government to cover up, and claim all those involved were just looney. It is possible that one day once we finally figure out quantum physics and the many dimensions in our universe, that this will be a case solved and closed. I am sure people like Chad Jackson, and Kevin George. The ones who had jumped off the ship will finally be regarded as heroes. Case CLOSED.
