Subtitle: The Philadelphia Experiment, the Nazi Bell, and the Discarded Theory
This book examines the alleged Philadelphia Experiment and possible similarities between it and the rumored Nazi weapon known as The Bell. The Philadelphia Experiment supposedly happened in 1943, but didn’t come to light until the 1970s; the experiment is said to have be aimed at using high-powered electromagnetic fields to make a U.S. Navy destroyer invisible to radar – allegedly it resulted in the ship becoming totally invisible with dire physical and mental effects for some members of the crew on board. The Bell project also dealt with powerful magnetic fields, speculatively for use in several possible applications.
The author spent a lot more time on the Philadelphia Experiment, detailing a lot of the origins of the legend that has grown up around it. There isn’t a whole lot of firm evidence in support of it, but when the story first emerged, the U.S. Navy showed a lot of interest in it, leading to accusations of a government coverup of the incident. The Bell was just one of many German “Wonder Weapons” developed during World War II. It has been said by various researchers to be a time machine, an anti-gravity/UFO-type propulsion system, or potentially a powerful bomb that could rip apart the space/time continuum or pulverize the world. With the passage of time and the rumored actions of various government agencies to keep the evidence hidden, the truth about these two subjects.
I gave Secrets of the Unified Field four stars on Goodreads. I did enjoy having so much of the evidence for both cases presented in the same place, but the scientific explanations of Einstein’s theories of relativity and unified fields bogged things down for me.
