Last ice age happened in less than a yearThe last ice age 13,000 years ago took hold in just one year, more than ten times quicker than previously believed, scientists have warned. Rather than a gradual cooling over a decade, the ice age plunged Europe into the deep freeze, German Research Centre for Geosciences at Potsdam said. Cold, stormy conditions causedby an abrupt shift in atmospheric circulation froze the continent almost instantly during the Younger Dryas less than 13,000 years ago – a very recent period on a geological scale....

The Montauk Project was purportedly a series of secret United States government
projects conducted at Camp Hero and/or Montauk Air Force Station on Montauk,
Long Island. It was claimed by a small number of conspiracy theorists to be
secretly developing a powerful psychological war weapon. The Project is widely
regarded by mainstream sources as fictional. The Montauk Project is believed by
small numbers of people to be an extension or continuation of the controversi...

Metaphysical leanings, scientific
breakthroughs and conspiracy theories surround the life of Nikola Tesla, who did
some of his most important and astonishing work in Colorado Springs.
Somewhere on North Foote Avenue, just up the hill from its
intersection with Pikes Peak Avenue, a small house stands on ground where 101
years ago, Serbian-American inventor Nikola Tesla built his famed, and now
long-gone, Colorado Springs lab...

Madness At The
Edge Of Science: What is it that we love about the mad scientists in our movies
and history? Is it because their probing of the unknown piques our curiosity? Is
it their seeming superiority to the common herd? Or is it that they -- at least
for a while -- get away with more than we can? They do so in many realms of knowledge. Some of them are
practical, and quest for better things for the human race. Others are decidedly
less practical. O...
The Philadelphia Experiment Story
by Mark Bean (Edited by Ken Wright)
The following account is the story - or legend - of
what has become popularly known as the “Philadelphia Experiment,” also referred
to as “Project Rainbow.” Much has been written about this topic and the purpose
of this page is an attempt to separate fact from rumor. The Philadelphia
Experiment was an attempt by the U.S. Navy to create a ship that could not be
detected by magnetic mines and or radar. However, its results were...
Magnets may make the brain grow strongerCould magnets make the mind grow stronger? In mice at least, stimulating the brain with a magnetic coil appears to promote the growth of new neurons in areas associated with learning and memory. If the effect is confirmed in humans, it might open up new ways of treating age-related memory decline and diseases like Alzheimer's.Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) has been used experimentally to treat a range of brain disorders, including depression and schizophrenia, and torehabilitate peo...

Does the
United States Air Force or one of America's intelligence agencies have a secret
hypersonic aircraft capable of a Mach 6 performance? Continually growing
evidence suggests that the answer to this question is yes. Perhaps the most
well-known event which provides evidence of such a craft's existence is the
sighting of a triangular plane over the North Sea in August 1989 by
oil-exploration engineer Chris Gibson. As well as the famous "skyquakes" heard ...
What was The "Philadelphia Experiment"?
The Philadelphia Experiment was an attempt by
the Navy to create a ship that could not be detected by magnetic mines and or
radar. However, its results were far different and much more dangerous than the
Navy ever expected. The technical data that has also been presented upon the
subject hold far too much credence to be ignored. Many of the stories associated
with this infamous experiment are wild: whispers of men 'freezing' in time for
months, rumors of men traveling through time,...
Are Wormholes Tunnels for Time Travel?
©
1996-2007 National Geographic Society By Stefan Lovgren
As any
self-respecting science fiction fan knows, wormholes—theoretical shortcuts
through space and time—make for excellent time travel portals. One such movie to
transport people into the past is A Sound of Thunder,
based on the classic 1952 Ray Bradbury novella. In it, a group of hunters build
a time machine, which looks like a wormhole of sorts, to travel back to the
dinosaur era. There, things go awry when one hunter ...
