The Nazi Bell Conspiracy - Forgotten History

Albert Einstein believed that for time travel to be successful, it would need to be at the speed of light, and that traveling at that speed slows the time, reaching the speed of light will stop time, and if it will be ever possible to pass the speed of light, time will reverse. Another theory was that time passes slower for objects in a gravitational field than for an object which is far from such a field, but he said it was possible. Did the Germans invent a time machine? Being an anti-gravitational machine, known as the glukka, or the bell, what was the purpose of the supposed anti-gravity machine? If they were successful, why do we not have their captured prototype and research? Hello, I'm Colin Heaton, former soldier, Marine Corps scout sniper, history professor, historian and book author, and we will answer these questions and other issues on this segment of Forgotten History. German scientists were unfettered by cost restrictions and an inexhaustible supply of slave labor, so German firms were given free reign and created the most revolutionary machines and projects in human history up to that time. The earliest mentions come from the 1920s during the Weimar era with the supposed development of the RFZ-1 anti-gravitational flying saucer, possibly with an anti-magnetic propulsion system. This research was created in 1923 and continued after the creation of the Society for Space Travel in 1927 in Berlin, of which Dr. Werner von Braun was a member. The bell was to be the vehicle for time travel and was described as being constructed from about 3 inches of ceramic-based content, about 14 feet in height, and about 9 feet wide at the base. The supposed fuel for this project was beryllium, called red mercury, or Xerum 525, and due to the design, as well as the fuel, the bell was considered dangerous. This fuel was used in the Messerschmitt Me 163b Comet and V2 rockets, combining the mixtures to create rocket propulsion. So why was the bell fuel, if true, also so volatile? And why was it required for anti-gravity? As may have been expected, given the top-secret nature of these projects, Heinrich Himmler had to have his foot in the door and his SS managing every aspect of most of these programs. His appointee, SS Lieutenant General Dr. Hans Kammler, was the force behind most of the top-secret projects, working in conjunction with Reich Armaments Minister Albert Speer. Under Kammler's direction, the SS was in control of these projects with some army oversight, such as Major General Walter Dornberger at Pinamundi, where the expert scientists were involved in the V2 project. Others believed to be involved in the anti-gravitational bell project were Dr. Werner Heisenberg and Dr. Werner Magnus Maximilian Freyherr Baron von Braun, who would be the greatest prize captured by the United States. Heisenberg was the chief physicist on Hitler's atomic bomb project, working with uranium. Yet despite his capture and post-war interrogations, the bell project never came up. Heisenberg had built an atomic reactor, yet was never able to complete his atomic bomb project for a variety of reasons. Likewise, von Braun, the rocket genius, never mentioned the project as he created the Redstone, Gemini and Apollo programs and the Saturn V rocket. Yet, although Operation Paperclip harvested the best and brightest German minds in the fields of science, nuclear fission, electronics, aeronautics, and rocketry, and Operation Lusty grabbed all the high-tech German weapons, aircraft, and technology, why did they not also capture the mysterious and unknown bell and its scientists along with their research documentation? The Western Allies had the V-1 Flying Bomb, the V-2 Ballistic Missile, the Messerschmitt Me 262, the Heinkel He 162 Volksjäger, or People's Fighter, and the Arado AR-234 jets, the Messerschmitt Me 163 B-Comet and the Bacchum 349 Natter rocket fighters, and the Fritz X radio-guided missile that sank the Italian battleship Roma, etc. They had also captured and built the high-tech electric-powered stealth submarines with propulsion systems that were decades ahead of the Allies' technology. Also captured were additional ultra-sensitive radio, airborne radars, and emission detection systems used by the Luftwaffe night fighter force, as well as infrared technology. But what about the bell? Yet despite the lack of any mention of the bell in immediate post-World War II intelligence and interrogations, in 1960 there was a French publication titled The Mourning of the Magicians, translated into English in 1963 that first mentioned the bell project. Some of these subjects also included Himmler's and Hitler's fascination with the occult, other secret projects already mentioned, and even Germany's handling of UFOs for gathering their technology. Part of this theory was sustained by the development of the various Horton aircraft designs, such as the Horton HO-229 flying wing, also known as the New York bomber. It has been surmised that the Horton brothers used captured alien technology in their design of their aircraft designated number 18, which is the design of the Northrop Grumman B-2 stealth bomber. Due to the perceived mass of German technology and the subsequent research and development at places such as Area 51, the rise in UFO interest is probably explained. The greatest issue with researching the bell is the unusual lack of documentation, which is contrary to all the other Germany operating special weapons and development projects, all of which became part of Operation Paperclip and Lusty at the end of the war. In fact, it would appear that the only hard source is from a supposedly affluent and interesting Polish intelligence officer who was privy to documents gathered from the interrogations of captured SS project officers. However, we do not have the names or copies of any of this documentation. Otherwise, the very story itself seems to have possibly sprang from the intense interest and sensationalism of the science fiction community and conspiracy theorists. Rumors even surfaced that Hitler used the time machine to escape to parts unknown. Even the moon has been mentioned. The anti-gravity mechanism would have been revolutionary if in fact it existed and worked. NASA and the Russian space programs and even private companies, not the least of which being Boeing and others, are known to have been actively working on such a project for decades. It would only make sense that if in fact Germany had developed a working model of the bell, then why was it not in use? On December 9, 1965, a large fireball was seen by thousands of people as it flew across northeast Canada and the USA, crashing in a forest in Kecksburg, Pennsylvania, about 30 miles northeast of Pittsburgh, a heavily populated area. The U.S. Army sealed off the area and listed the event as a crashed UFO and then went to investigate. Despite the rumors and conspiracy theories, it was determined that the UFO was in fact the Soviet satellite Cosmos 96 that had reentered the Earth's atmosphere, leaving a long fire trail behind it. Many initially believed that this was in fact the Nazi bell that had been traveling through time and returned to Earth. The only seemingly supportive piece of evidence is the Hinge in Poland, where the structure was believed to have been where the bell was being developed and tested. But if so, then that would have placed the bell technology and scientists within reach of the Red Army, so logically they would have secured the evidence unless the workers escaped to the West with Bumperl and Dornberger. Other than rumors, we do not have any confirmation that the bell ever existed, but it does make for a good story. We hope you enjoyed this segment of Forgotten History.
