Pellegrino Ernetti's Chronovisor: From the Astronautical Torus to the Philadelphia Experiment—Chrononauts, Black Projects, and the Hypothesis That the Past Still Exists
Pellegrino Ernetti's Chronovisor: From the Astronautical Torus to the Philadelphia Experiment—Chrononauts, Black Projects, and the Hypothesis That the Past Still Exists A historical thread of ideas weaves through science fiction, fringe technology, ufology, and physics: the possibility that time is not merely something that "passes," but rather a dimension in which different states of reality can be accessed through tuning, displacement, or observation. An investigation into this lore reveals that Robert Charroux’s 1963 work Histoire inconnue des hommes depuis cent mille ans explicitly outlines these concepts in its chapter on time travel. Charroux describes participating alongside engineer Émile Drouet starting in 1946, detailing an astronautique tore (Astronautical Torus), frequency-modulation radar, and the concept of a longueur d'onde-temps (time-wavelength). Furthermore, Charroux discusses temporal harmonics—suggesting that distinct historical trajectories...
