About Philadelphia Experiment in brief
The Philadelphia Experiment is an alleged military experiment supposed to have been carried out by the U. S. Navy at the Philadelphia Naval Shipyard in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, United States, sometime around October 28, 1943. The story first appeared in 1955, in letters of unknown origin sent to UFO writer Morris K. Jessup. The U.S. Navy maintains that no such experiment was ever conducted, that the details of the story contradict well-established facts about USS Eldridge, and that the alleged claims do not conform to known physical laws. The experiment was allegedly based on an aspect of unified field theory, a term coined by Albert Einstein. The Philadelphia Experiment was adapted into a 1984 film directed by Stewart Raffill, based on accounts of the prior accounts of time travel. The film was portrayed as it was portrayed in the original story by former crew-member Alfred Bielek, a self-proclaimed former participant in the Experiment. He added details of his claims through the Internet, some of which were picked up by mainstream news outlets, which were then picked up on by some mainstream media outlets, including CNN, BBC, and the New York Times. In the film, BieleK claims he was involved in the experiment, but that he was not the only person involved. He also claims that the experimenter and experimenter-U.S Navy technician Thomas Townsend Brown, was also involved in some mysterious involvement of the Antigravity Propulsion also known as Townsend Brown.
The Navy has never confirmed or denied the existence of Townsend Brown or the story of the Experiment, but has said that the Navy has no plans to investigate Townsend Brown’s claims of being involved in a time travel experiment in the past or in the present. The Experiment is widely understood to be a hoax; the Navy says it has no intention of releasing any more information about the Experiment or any of its participants. It is believed that the Experiment was never carried out and that it was never intended to be publicized. The Naval Investigative Service officer investigates several threads linking wartime invisibility experiments to a conspiracy involving matter transmission technology. The author Charles Berlitz, who had written a best selling book on the Bermuda Triangle, and his co-author, ufologist William L. Moore, published ThePhiladelphia Experiment: Project Invisibility in 1979. In 1963 Vincent Gaddis published a book of Forteana, titled Invisible Horizons: True Mysteries of the Sea. In it he recounted the tale of the experiment from the Varo annotations. In 1978 George E. Simpson and Neal R. Burger published a novel titled Thin Air. In this book, set in the current day, a Naval Investigative Services officer investigates the story.
