Some People Say That The U.S. Government Poked A Hole In Space And Time (5 pics)
Did you know that the Netflix show "Stranger Things" took inspiration from a government conspiracy called the Montauk Project? According to some people who claim to have been involved with the project, the things you see in "Stranger Things" might not be as strange as you think.
While the conspiracy theory of the Montauk Project breaks down into many different individual theories, the main thread is that the U.S. government managed to create an interdimensional portal in the space-time continuum back in the 1980s.
But they didn't do it alone. They had assistance from secret technology left behind by Nikola Tesla (and some helpful aliens, of course).
Most of the "evidence" for the Montauk Project comes from a book of the same name written by Preston B. Nichols and Peter Moon. While the book does make some fantastic claims, it falls quite short on providing any actual evidence for the events it describes.
While there are many to choose from, the favorite Montauk Project conspiracy theory is the so-called Philadelphia Experiment. According to witnesses, scientists were nearly able to transport an entire ship between 1943 and 1983. Allegedly, the ship got stuck somewhere in space-time, but two men managed to successfully make the journey.
While tales of interdimensional travel and secret government technologies might sound interesting, it's important to keep in mind that there is no hard proof behind any of these stories.
