- The Phoenix Project - Montauk Time Travel Technology
-
- by Paul Turner Rating: 0.0
Just as the ancient and mythical firebird, the Phoenix, arose anew from its own ashes so did the so-called Project Phoenix, also, perhaps, mythical in its own right. Project Phoenix was born on the shoulders of the failures before it - the misguided attempt to control the weather and an ill-fated invisibility experiment.
Project Phoenix, for some, is a myth, a contemporary legend - a conspiracy made up by conspiracy buffs for the sake of their own satisfaction. For others, the legend of Project Phoenix was real - a legend that began with a rumor. German historian, Ernst Bernheim, considered a legend to be the survival of rumor. Conspiracy or not, legend or not, there seems to be a vast amount of books, articles, videos, and websites devoted to the subject, as there is a vast amount of people who believe the legend to be true.
For forty-one years, beginning on the morning of August 12, 1943 to the early part of 1984, some of the most bizarre experiments took place, beginning on the Delaware River, continuing at a national laboratory, and ending in the underground beneath a deserted Naval Air Station on the eastern point of Long Island, New York.
The Phoenix Project - Montauk Time Travel Technology was created by taking existing factual material, sometimes reading between the lines and sometimes "bending" the material to fit the fictional situation. And, to be honest, I have ignored certain published "facts" that did not reasonably fit my interpretation of the "story." But what takes place does follow a logical timeline and situational pattern that falls within the category of β βIt could have happened.β 268 pages/ over 285 drawings and photographs.- Genres: Speculative Fiction
