Philadelphia Experiment

The **Philadelphia Experiment** was a top-secret experiment conducted based on Tesla's last research.

## Overview

On October 28th, 1943 a secret experiment was conducted in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA. The Eldridge, a station ship, was equipped with powerful "Tesla coils".

The goal of this experiment was to create a high-level pressure in the hull in an attempt to make the ship invisible to radars. However, the true objective was to make the ship perform "instantaneous movement" and the "stealth experiment" was just a cover story. The ultra-strong magnetic field was far more powerful than expected and the ship disappeared from both radars and the naked eye.

The Eldridge would soon reappear off the coast of Norfolk, about 363 Km away from it's original position. This fact meant that the ship had achieved the feat of teleportation and that the experiment had achieved its true goal. However, the experiment could not be called a success, since both the ship and crew were harmed during the process.

In total, the extraordinary situation resulted in the disappearances and deaths of 13 soldiers and scientists, and 6 people going insane. As a result, the Navy high command buried Tesla's last research and experiments on "instantaneous movement" were no longer conducted.

## Trivia

* The Philadelphia Experiment was an alleged event claimed to have been witnessed by an ex-merchant mariner named Carl M. Allen at the United States Navy's Philadelphia Naval Shipyard in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, United States, sometime around October 28, 1943.
