The Consequences Of The Philadelphia Experiment

The government sent out night fighters to attempt to find and destroy the target but it failed. As every time the fighters got close the ship turned off its lights and would elude them for a while only to pop back up on the radar. The cover up eventually failed when some of the officers admitted to seeing the object. One in particular was Sergeant Harrison who said that “I saw the light… moving from the Northeast toward the range station” (N/A,

On the morning of August 6, 1945, a B-29 bomber named Enola Gay flew over the industrial city of Hiroshima, Japan and dropped the first atomic bomb ever. The city went up in flames caused by the immense power equal to about 20,000 tons of TNT. The project was a success. They were an unprecedented assemblage of civilian, and military scientific brain power-brilliant, intense, and young, the people that helped develop the bomb. Unknowingly they came to an isolated mountain setting, known as Los Alamos, New Mexico, to design and build the bomb that would end World War 2, but begin serious controversies concerning its sheer power and destruction. I became interested in this topic because of my interest in science and history. It seemed an

The day after Martin Luther King, Jr. was killed, a teacher named Jane Elliott tried a classroom experiment on her third grade children in a small town in the United States. Elliott decided to treat the children with blue eyes differently to children with brown eyes. Her experiment was designed to demonstrate to her students how prejudice and racism feels and why it’s so wrong.

Branch Rickey recalls a memory of a black athlete named Charlie who was refused the same accommodations as his teammates. What was the significance of this memory to branch Rickey? (page 289)

Leading up to this time the fascist dictators began to gain power in European countries. The big three being the countries of Nazi Germany, Adolf Hitler, Italy, Benito Mussolini, and Japan, Emperor Hirohito. In 1935 Italy invades and conquers Ethiopia, shorty after Nazi Germany and Fascist Italy sign a treaty of cooperation. In 1937,Japan, lead by Hirohito, invaded China. Joseph Stalin, of Russia, signs the German-Russian non-aggression pact; which allowed Hitler to invade Poland. But when news of the German invasion of Poland spread Britain along with France joined the war to oppose the Germans. Germany only continues in it’s quest for conquest by invading Denmark and Norway in the year 1940. Meanwhile the United States is remaining completely uninvolved under it’s Neutrality Act that was passed in 1935. The United States, lead by president Franklin D. Roosevelt, enacted it’s Lend Lease Act in 1941 in order to trade and sell to allied forces, for payment after war. Japan realizes that the U.S. wasn’t exactly being neutral so it sent suicide bombers to attack our naval base in Pearl Harbor on December 7, 1941. Thus leading into the use of the atomic bomb, but first the construction, an event referred to as the Manhattan Project. The name Manhattan Project came about because the program began under the Manhattan Engineering District of the War Department.

Having been born in the first month of the year 1706 in Boston, Massachusetts, Benjamin Franklin has been regarded an iconic figure not only in the history of America but as well as the world.1 Although he had a deep passion for reading, he could only manage to attend school for two years. He then joined his brother at the age of 12 in apprenticeship at a shop. At the age of 15 people were reading his very first newspaper in Boston. It is after his letters had become a hit that he declared to be the writer. His brother, James, got furious about his writing so he had to run away to Philadelphia at the age of 17. His love for experiments could be seen at an early age for he carried out an experiment on kites during a lighting storm. This one was in regards to lighting and power. Franklin was a famous politician as well as a civil activist during the Enlightenment Era that took place in North America. He was widely known as he played his role as the Ambassador to France and the effort he made to acquire French military assistance when the American Revolution was ongoing. Among other achievements, Benjamin was among the Founding Fathers that put their signatures for the Declaration of Independence besides helping in the drafting of the United States Constitution. Besides being approachable and self-effacing, Benjamin Franklin was an extremely brilliant person.2 he was first a businessman as well as a scientist although he later got involved in civics and politics.

Levittown project was taken up in the U.S. after the end of Second World War, with the aim of providing mass housing facilities to people in the wake of increasing urbanization and problems of accommodating large population in limited urban area (Friedman. 1995). The first of Levittown apartments were constructed on Long Island, New York and they symbolized the modern trends of urbanization and housing developments (Clapson. 2003). This paper shall study the impact of Levittown project on trends of further urbanization and analyze the aesthetics of design and development involved in it.

The process of building the two atomic bombs was long and hard. The Manhattan project employed 120,000 people, and cost almost $2 billion. Although there were 120,000 Americans working on the project only a select group of scientist knew of the atomic bomb development. Vice president Truman never knew about the development of the bombs until he became president. The axis powers did not know what was going on with the development of the atomic bomb; there was a soviet spy in the project. The soviet spy was Klaus Fuchs, and he had become one of the few people who knew of the bombs.

The reason why Franklin did not become a state was because when a vote was held, Franklin

The Philadelphia experiment was an experiment conducted by the U.S navy in 1943 that caused an event that transported a man through time, but was it real? People at that time thought it was just a hoax; many movies and documentaries were made to explain different theories and thoughts brought up by scientists but the videos received many negative reviews because the stories were too impossible to believe. What actually happened in the Philadelphia Experiment has highly been exaggerated and morphed into a way to convince the people of other nations that the U.S Navy accidentally invented teleportation. The Philadelphia experiment accident isn’t real because it’s implausible, and has too many elements that are extremely hard to believe.

Imagine a future more advanced than the time we live in. A future filled with inventions we can only imagine, a future where a single thought can takes us across the world in a matter of seconds. Redundant to the sentence above it. Can you imagine a future where militaries can cloak their ships making it invisible to the human eye? Is this an interesting future? Carlos Meredith Allen or Allende, was born on May 31, 1925; in Springdale Pennsylvania to an English father and a French mother. Growing up, Allende display signs of brilliance in school but never uses his brilliance to his advantage. Allende then grew up, and claimed that the U.S. Navy hid facts about their Philadelphia Experiment. On the other hand, the U.S. Navy said they never conducted a Philadelphia Experiment and Allende was only trying to start a conspiracy. Allende may be telling the truth about the navy hiding facts about the Philadelphia Experiment, or the U.S. truly did not conduct the experiment and Allende is trying to create a conspiracy. With Allende’s unrealistic story and as the only person to come out about the Philadelphia experiment, he is most likely trying to create a conspiracy. Also there is no evidence that the Navy conducted a Philadelphia Experiment. With no evidence,

On the day of July 4, 1947, the blips appeared to be changing shape. As they moved back and forth on the radar, they seemed to be pulsating, glowing very bright and then dimming. The pattern of its movements suddenly changed as it darted to the lower left-hand quadrant of the screen, disappeared for a moment, and then exploded in a magnificent white fluorescent light and evaporated before the officers’ eyes. The radar screen was clear. The pulsating blips were gone. All the officers, radar controllers and CIC personnel, stared at each other with the same thought clawing in their minds; The object, whatever it

Franklin’s first response is a team of emergency personnel and officials (police and fire departments) that are to be the first to arrive as an immediate response to a disaster and/or threat. The responders will identify and assess the risk of the situation and go through the proper channels necessary to contact the appropriate officials. First responders will also work alongside the DOJ and DOT to make the individuals involved are being handled under the appropriate protocols. For instance, if there is an attack to public infrastructure the state and local police would be contacted to assess the severity of the situation and contact the DOJ, if need be.

Ernest Rutherford was a New Zealand born British physicist who is famously known for “splitting the atom.” His work on the gold foil experiment contributed greatly to the model of the atom and helped develop the standard model of the atom to what we now use today. Without his contributions we would still be using the Plum Pudding model, an out dated and incorrect model, and we would have less of an understanding of how atoms form the world around us.

How far will people go to be obedient? While some people are defiant, most people will go beyond imaginable measures to obey authority. Stanley Milgram conducted an experiment that tested human relations and authority. The experiment was scientifically sound and followed procedures but was very flawed. Milgram’s experiment consisted of an experimenter, a naïve subject, and an actor. The naïve subject is a volunteer who saw a public announcement stating that they would get paid four dollars (plus fifty cent carfare) for an hour of their time. Upon arriving the willing participants were told about the experiment’s process which included shocking a person when they gave wrong answers to a set of memory
