Weird Science

Tesla coils. Ball lightning. Free energy. Torsion fields. Antigravity. Thunderstorm sprites. Paranormal phenomena.
No, we’re not covering the X-Files today, although Fox Mulder would no doubt be a fan of this site. It’s called Weird Science. The site is a funky, fun experience that will leave you scratching your head and saying “hmmmm . . .”
The design is classic 1990’s. Its klunkiness has a charm all its own. But its prodigious content will impress you. There is a LOT of information here.
Let’s take the subject of ball lightning. “At one time BL was thought to be extremely rare, but this was because most BL eyewitnesses feared ridicule and wouldn’t come forward. In reality, five percent of the population has seen BL close up. Today most researchers agree that it is real, yet its nature is still highly controversial, and no sensible theories yet exist to explain it.”


That is backed up by an eyewitness account page that must have hundreds of instances presented in their unedited glory, so pardon the typos.
Oh, by the way, you can also learn how to hatch ball lightning in your microwave, in case you’re totally psychotic. ;-)
Read about research on torsion fields. There’s a link to a Russian-English translator. It will come in handy.
Much of the strange science content is at this site, there are also many links to others. Don’t be surprised if you look at your watch and discover an hour or more has gone by. Weird science is very addictive.
