The Labyrinth of Egypt: Ancient Mysteries and Modern Discoveries
This video by Ben van Kerkwyk of UnchartedX explores the possibility of one of the most significant archaeological discoveries yet to be fully uncovered—the Great Labyrinth of Egypt. This structure, described by ancient historians as surpassing even the pyramids in grandeur, has been the subject of speculation, suppression, and modern technological investigation.
The presentation, originally delivered at the Cosmic Summit (June 2025), delves into:
Historical accounts of the labyrinth from Greek and Roman writers.
Modern expeditions using ground-penetrating radar, satellite scans, and seismic tomography.
Suppression of discoveries by Egyptian authorities.
Remarkable claims about a 40-meter-long metallic object buried deep beneath the site.
1. Historical Accounts of the Labyrinth
Multiple classical authors described the labyrinth, emphasizing its immense scale and complexity:
Herodotus (5th century BCE)
Called it greater than the pyramids, with 3,000 chambers (1,500 above ground, 1,500 below).
Described 12 massive courts, intricate passages, and white stone columns.
Mentioned a pyramid attached to the labyrinth via an underground passage.
Diodorus Siculus (1st century BCE)
Compared it to the Greek labyrinth of Crete, suggesting the Egyptian version was the original.
Said it was impossible to navigate without a guide.
Strabo (1st century CE)
Called it equal to the pyramids in grandeur.
Described hidden chambers, twisting corridors, and a pyramid at its end.
Pliny the Elder (1st century CE)
Claimed it was built 3,600 years before his time (~3,600 BCE, predating dynastic Egypt).
Said its columns were made of marble (calcite) and granite.
Pomponius Mela (1st century CE)
Described 1,000 houses and 12 palaces within its walls.
Mentioned a single descending entrance leading to a maze-like interior.
These accounts suggest the labyrinth was a multi-level, megalithic structure with vast halls, underground chambers, and advanced stonework.
2. Location: Hawara in the Faiyum
Most scholars agree the labyrinth was located near Hawara, south of Cairo, where:
Amenemhat III’s mudbrick pyramid stands.
Lake Moeris (now Lake Qarun) once existed.
Petrie’s excavations (1888-1911) revealed megalithic foundations beneath the pyramid.
Petrie’s Discoveries
Found a subterranean quartzite chamber beneath the pyramid (~110 tons).
Described massive stone blocks, possibly part of the labyrinth’s roof.
Noted that rising groundwater prevented full exploration.
3. Modern Scans Confirm the Labyrinth
Several expeditions have used advanced technology to scan the site:
Mataha Expedition (2008)
Used ground-penetrating radar, VLF, and resistivity tomography.
Found a grid-like structure (~8–12m deep) matching classical descriptions.
Zahi Hawass allegedly suppressed the findings, threatening the team with arrest.
Geoscan Systems (2015–2016)
Used satellite-based spectral analysis to detect subsurface anomalies.
Found four distinct underground layers, with huge halls (80m x 50m) at depths of 40–100m.
Merlin Burrows (2016–2017)
Used military-grade satellite imaging and seismic data.
Detected a freestanding 40m metallic object (nicknamed "Dippy") at ~60m depth.
Suggested it could be a "portal" or ancient artifact of unknown origin.
Correlations Between Scans
Both Geoscan and Merlin Burrows identified multiple underground levels.
The depth (40–100m) aligns with Herodotus’ description of 90 steps between levels.
The scale (1,000+ rooms) matches ancient accounts.
4. Suppression and Political Challenges
Zahi Hawass reportedly blocked publication of the Mataha Expedition’s findings, citing "national security."
A Polish-Egyptian geological survey (2009) was halted, and its director jailed.
Rising groundwater (due to the Aswan High Dam) threatens the site’s preservation.
Why the Cover-Up?
Cost of excavation: Draining and preserving the site would be extremely expensive.
Political risks: Admitting its existence without a plan could lead to international criticism.
Alternative history implications: The labyrinth may challenge mainstream Egyptology.
5. The Future: Could the Labyrinth Be Explored?
Italian SAR (synthetic aperture radar) team (behind the Giza scans) may investigate Hawara.
Crowdfunding or international collaboration could fund excavation.
Urgency: Rising water levels may destroy artifacts within decades.
Conclusion
The Labyrinth of Egypt represents one of the greatest unsolved mysteries of antiquity. Multiple scanning technologies confirm its existence, yet political and logistical hurdles prevent full exploration. If uncovered, it could rewrite history—revealing lost knowledge, advanced engineering, and possibly even anomalous artifacts like the rumored "Dippy" object.
For now, the labyrinth remains hidden beneath the sands of Hawara, waiting for the day when technology and willpower align to reveal its secrets.

Revival of the Science of Electricity in the Digital Age - by Eric Dollard

1)
In this Digital Age, the theoretical basis provided for Electrical Engineering has been defiled, reduced to an assemblage of delusive denouncements enforced by a cabal of academic theoreticians. What gives authoritative force to their dictates is the overtly complex and convoluted mathematics which enshrouds them. This mathematics in turn becomes a “right of passage” in teaching and replacing reason and experiment. Once the idols become digitized, they become law, and consequently electricity has become a lost science, relegated to the same scrap heap as alchemy.
However, in historical perspective, the theoretical basis for electrical engineering had achieved a very high level of development at the onset of the 20th century, this to meet the demands of a rapidly developing commercial enterprise, most notably that of the electro-magnetic telegram, and later electric light and power. Electrical science progressed remarkably well in this era, and thus became an exact science which engendered well thought out theories. The foundations of this science were derived from the Experimental Researches of Michael Faraday and their Mathematical Development by Clerk Maxwell. This became known as the “Faraday-Maxwell” Theory of Electricity. J.J. Thomson gives an account of the basis of the theory:
“This method is based on the conception, introduced by Faraday, of tubes of electric force, or rather, of electrostatic induction. Faraday, as is well known, used these tubes as the language in which to express the phenomena of the electric field. Thus, it was by their tendency to contract, and the lateral repulsion which similar tubes exert on each other, that he explained the mechanical forces between electrified bodies, while the influence of the medium on these tubes was on his view indicated by the specific inductive capacity in dielectrics.” (1)
Essential to the Faraday-Maxwell concept is the existence of a fundamental “Electric Medium,” or aether, which fills all space and permeates all matter. Regardless of the fruitfulness of this idea of the aether, and its tubes of electric induction, it was later forcibly driven from electrical theory and replaced with an idol, the “Electron,” and its sacred companion, Einstein-Minkowski Relativity.
In the course of human events there always comes a time when certain forces set out to tear apart what became a well-established and thought out process of reasoning. Such was the objective of the modernistic theoreticians. An excellent remark on this condition in historic events is given by E.T. Whitaker:
“Perhaps nothing in the history of natural philosophy is more amazing than the vicissitudes of the theory of heat. The true hypothesis, after meeting with general acceptance throughout a century, and having been approved by a succession of illustrious men, was deliberately abandoned by their successors in favor of a conception so utterly false, and in some of its developments, grotesque and absurd.” (2)
Meanwhile, as Gustave Le Bon remarks:
“The mathematicians were drawing up formulae, the physicists were making experiments, and these experiments fitted less with the formulae. So soon as the equations no longer agreed with the experiments, the equations no longer agreed with the experiments, the equations were rectified by imagining “hidden forces,” which completely baffled observation.” (3)
2)
The modernistic mathematicians ultimately regained the ground they had lost to Faraday, and electrical science was reduced to meta-physics. The three fundamental commandments established are:
(I)
The abolition of the aether,
(II)
The Enshrinement of a certain set of so-called “Maxwell’s Equations,”
(III)
The idolization of the so-called “electron.”
A discussion of these three commandments follows.
The first commandment, The abolition of the aether:
Nikola Tesla once remarked, “The discovery of the aether was as significant in his era as was the discovery of fire was for primitive man.”
However, at the onset of the electronic age, the concept of the aether was rejected with all the vehemence of religious fanaticism. The justification for this was that no physical model could be devised that could survive the test of experiment. This is no surprise since the aether is not physical and accordingly it is outside the realm of physical science. Many resisted this abolition at its onset at the beginning of the 20th century, one was Oliver Heaviside, to quote:
“As one regards the aether, it is useless to sneer at it this time of day. What substitute for it do we have? Its principle fault is that it is mysterious. That is because we know so little about it. Then we should find out more. That cannot be done by ignoring it. The properties of air, so far as they are known, had to be found out before they became known.” (4)
Joseph Larmor states the following:
“It therefore may be held that, in so far as theories of the ultimate connection of different physical agencies are allowed to be legitimate at all, they should develop along the lines of a purely electric aether until critics of such a simple scheme are able to point to a definite group of phenomena that requires the assumption of a new set of properties and that moreover can be reduced to logical order thereby. A charge of incompleteness without indication of a better way, is not effective criticism in question of this kind, because, owning to the imperfections of our perceptions and the limited range of our intellectual operations, finally can never be attained.” (5)
Larmor continues with:
“From remote ages, the great question with which, since Newton’s time, we have been familiar under the somewhat misleading antithesis of contact vs. distance actions, has engaged speculation, -how is it that portions of matter can interact on each other which seems to have no means of connection between them, can a body act where it is not? If we answer directly in the negative, the spatial limitations of substance are to a large extent removed, and the complication is increased. The simplest solution is involved in a view that has come down from the early period of Greek physical speculation, and forms one of the most striking items in the stock of first principles of knowledge which has been struck out by the genius of that age. In that mode of thought, the ultimate reality is transferred from sensible matter to a uniform medium which is a plenum, the ultimate elements of matter consisting of permanently existing vortices or other singularities of motion and strain located in the primordial medium.” (6)
At the onset of the “Age of Enlightenment,” this concept was revived from the age of antiquity by Rene Descartes in his absolute rejection of “Action at a distance” through an empty or vacuous space devoid of any physical properties. He assumed that force cannot be communicated except by actual pressure or impact. “It is thus erroneous to regard the heavenly bodies as isolated in vacant space; around and between them is an incessant conveyance and transformation of energy. To the vehicle of this activity, the name aether has been given.” (7)
Following this line of reasoning is that of Michael Faraday, which is a continuous transmission of physical actions through an electrified aether. This was one of the first and most important, in the stock of first principles, in the theory of electricity. To quote Lord Kelvin:
“During the 56 years which have passed since Faraday first offended physical mathematicians with his curved lines of force, many writers and many thinkers have helped to build up the 19th century school of the plenum, one aether for light, heat, electricity, magnetism… (8)
“Faraday had strong geometric conceptions which he formulated qualitatively. To the more abstract minds of the European theoreticians, these concepts did not appeal at all.” (9)
At the onset of the electronic age, Faraday’s concept of the electric lines of force were rejected, despite all the physical evidence to substantiate their existence, and the meta-physical notion of action at a distance again reigned supreme. However, action was now presented through so-called “curved space,” to circumvent reality.
The common sense appeal to facts demands the retention of the philosophy of Michael Faraday; that is, this electric aether can be expressed in practical terms as an “electric fluid.” This concept held supreme in the pioneering days of the science of electricity (Ben Franklin). J.J. Thomson remarks:
“The influence which the notion and ideas of the fluid theory of electricity have, ever since their introduction, over the science of electricity and magnetism, is a striking illustration of the benefits conferred upon this science by a concrete representation of the symbols which in the mathematical theory of electricity define the state of the electric field. Indeed, the services which the old fluid theories has rendered to electricity by providing a language in which the facts of the science can be clearly and briefly expressed, can hardly be over-rated. A descriptive theory of this kind does more than serve as a vehicle for the clear expression of well-known results, it often renders important services by suggesting the possibility of the existence of new phenomena.” (10)
Gustave Le Bon provides a similar viewpoint:
“What is called electricity proceeds solely from phenomena from the so-called displacement of the electric fluid or of its elements.” (11)
Electricity will appear as the connecting link between the world of matter and that of the aether.” (12)
“Electricity allowed for the connection of two worlds, the ponderable and the imponderable.” (32)
“Such is the current theory. It is probable that things happen in a less simple, perhaps in even a very different manner; but when an explanation fits in fairly well with known facts, it is wise to be satisfied with it.” (13)
Second Commandment, Enshrinement of the So-called, “Maxwell’s Equations”:
The Faraday-Maxwell theory of electricity has for quite some time served as the principal foundation for electrical engineering theory.
“Maxwell’s brilliant synthesis of all electric and magnetic phenomena as well as their interactions into two simple “field equations” was an achievement of singular grandeur and beauty.” (14)
Well, maybe not really all electric and magnetic phenomena, and what bout the rest of the equations?
“As a matter of historical fact, Maxwell himself never wrote or saw “Maxwell’s Equations.” (15)
In reality, he conceived twenty mathematical propositions, four of which ultimately were named “Maxwell’s Equations,” but these were in reality the result of the combined efforts of Heinrich Hertz in Germany, and Oliver Heaviside in England. As it stands, the physicist prefers Hertz, whereas the engineer prefers Heaviside. However, the fundamental units, dimensions, and terminology from which the science and engineering of electricity derived its basis, are essentially as Maxwell formulated them. This is a rather unfortunate circumstance since these formulations exist in a primitive form, which in turn were “set in stone” by the academians before such formulations could develop into a mature theory of electricity. Also unfortunate is how the work of Herman von Helmholtz was swept under the carpet, which led to the unfortunate omissions in electrical theory.
Hertz gives his comments on this:
“In the researches to which I have hitherto referred, the experiments were interpreted from the standpoint which I took up through studying von Helmholtz’s papers. In these papers, Herr von Helmholtz’s distinguishes between two forms of electric force, the electro-static and the electromagnetic to which, until the contrary is proven by experiment, two different velocities are attributed. An interpretation of the experiments from the point of view could certainly not be incorrect, but it might be unnecessarily complicated. In a special limiting case, Helmholtz’s theory becomes considerably simplified, and its equations, in this case, become the same as those of Maxwell’s theory; only one form of force remains, and it is propagated with the velocity of Light.” (16)
At this historic juncture, the so-called “Velocity of Light” became enshrined, and the electro-static wave faded from existence. But, Nikola Tesla, who worked from the electro-static viewpoint remarks:
“For more than 18 years I have been reading treatises, reports of scientific transactions, and articles on Hertz-Wave Theory, to keep myself informed, but they always impressed me like works of fiction.” (17)
Here, it becomes evident that the so-called Maxwell’s Theory is not without significant limitations. For example, Charles Steinmetz makes a rather harsh statement on this matter:
The Maxwellian Theory of the Transformer describes a device that does not exist in practice, but haunts in textbooks and mathematical treatises on transformers.” (18)
Consequently, what has become known as “Maxwell’s Equations” is in part, of dubious practical value and serves in actuality as a kind of “religious ritual” rather than a fruitful method of analysis.
“At the time of Maxwell’s death, which happened in 1879, before he completed his 49th year, much yet remained to be done both in the investigations with which his name is associated; and the energies of the next generation were largely spent in extending and refining that conception of electrical and optical phenomena whose origin is correctly indicated in the name of Maxwell.” (19)
The three principal figures involved in this extension, or adaptation, of the work of clerk Maxwell were:
1.) Heinrich Hertz
2.) Oliver Heaviside
3.) J. J. Thomson
These illustrious individuals can rightly be called the “Followers of Maxwell.”
“In the decades proceeding the death of Maxwell, his “theory” would be developed in ways which could scarcely have been anticipated. But although every year added something to the super-structure, the foundations remained much as Maxwell had laid them; the doubtful argument by which he had sought to justify the introduction of displacement currents was still all that was offered in their defense. In 1884 however, the theory was established on a different basis by a pupil of Helmholtz, Heinrich Hertz.” (20)
Hertz states, in his book on electric waves, the following:
“And now to be more precise, what is it we call the Faraday-Maxwell Theory? Maxwell has left us as a result of his mature thought a great treatise on electricity and magnetism; it might therefore be said that Maxwell’s Theory is the one which propounds that work. But such an answer will scarcely be regarded as satisfactory by all scientific men who have considered the question closely. Many a man has thrown himself with zeal into the study of Maxwell’s work, and even when he has stumbled upon unwonted mathematical difficulties, has never the less been compelled to abandon hope of forming for himself an all-together consistent conception of Maxwell’s ideas.” (21)
Oliver Heaviside, the leading proponent of Maxwell’s Electromagnetic Theory, comments on the efforts of Hertz to verify this theory:
“Returning to electromagnetic waves. Maxwell’s Inimitable Theory of Dielectric Displacement was for a long time generally regarded as speculation. There was, for many years, an almost complete dearth of interest in the unverified parts of Maxwell’s Theory…”
“Still, however, they wanted experimental proof. Three years ago, electromagnetic waves were nowhere. Shortly after, they were everywhere. This was due to a very remarkable, and unexpected event, no less than the experimental discovery by Hertz, of Karlsruhe (Now of Bonn), of the veritable actuality of electromagnetic waves in the aether.” (22)
Heaviside continues on Maxwell:
"What is Maxwell’s Theory? Or, what should we agree to understand by Maxwell’s Theory? The first approximation to the answer is to say; There is Maxwell’s book as he wrote I; There is his text, and there are his equations: Together, they make his theory. But when we come to examine it closely, we find that this answer is unsatisfactory. To begin with, it is sufficient to refer to papers by physicists, written say during the twelve years following the first publication of Maxwell’s treatise, to see that there may be much difference in opinion as to what his theory is. It may be and has been, differently interpreted by different men, which is a sign that is not set forth in a perfectly clear and unmistakable form. There are many obscurities and some inconsistencies…
It is therefore impossible to adhere strictly to Maxwell’s Theory as he gave it to the world, if only on account of its inconvenient form. But it is clearly not admissible to make arbitrary changes in it and still call it his.” (23)
Professor J.J. Thomson gives a similar view on the problems in expressing the ideas of Maxwell:
“The descriptive hypothesis, that of displacement in a dielectric, used by Maxwell to illustrate his mathematical theory, seem to have been found by many readers neither so simple nor so easy of comprehension as the old fluid theory; indeed this seems to have been one of the chief reasons why his views did not sooner meet with the general acceptance they have since received. As many students find the conceptions of ‘displacement’ difficult, I venture to give an alternative method of regarding the process occurring in the electric field, which I have often found useful and which is, from a mathematical point of view, equivalent to Maxwell’s s Theory.
This method is based on the conception, introduced by Faraday, of tubes of electric force, or rather, of electro-static induction.” (24)
It is evident that three distinct contributions were laid out by these followers of Maxwell’s Theory. First was the experimental verification by Hertz. Second was the development of a suitable mathematical representation applicable to engineering formulation by Heaviside, and Third, an aether physics representation by Thomson.
The problem introduced however, is that Helmholtz Theory was left to be forgotten, and the non-electromagnetic aspect of electricity was thereafter ignored by most with the exception of Nikola Tesla, and possibly Charles Steinmetz.
Heaviside concludes with:
“It is not by any means to be concluded that Maxwell spells finality. There is no finality. It cannot even be accurately said that Hertzian Waves prove Maxwell’s Dielectric Theory completely. The observations are very rough indeed, when compared with the refined tests in other parts of electrical science. The important thing proved is that electromagnetic waves in the Aether at least approximately in accord with Maxwell’s Theory are a reality, and that the Faraday-Maxwellian is the correct one.” (25)
However, Heaviside imposes and arbitrary restriction:
“The other kind of electrodynamic speculation is played out completely. There will be plenty of room for more theoretical speculation, but it must be on the Maxwellian type to be really useful”. (25)
Heaviside is correct in his criticism of the old German electrodynamics, the useless potential theories, and other such illusions in electrical theory, which find their origin as far back as Isaac Newton. However, to ignore the aspects of electrical theory, which are not of an electromagnetic nature is not permissible when framing a general theory of electricity. It is a strange irony that while Heaviside rejects the Helmholtz Theory, (33) his so-called Telegraph Equation does provide the required framework for a true General Theory of Electricity. For an excellent analysis of the development of Electric Transmission Theory, see Ernst Guillemin “Communications Networks”, Volume Two, Chapter One.
Third Commandment, Idolization of the Electron:
To Quote Lucien Poincare:
“The electron has conquered physics and many adore the new idol rather blindly”. (26)
Gustave Le Bon states:
“The conception of the electrons, a near relative to the old Phlogiston, is one of the most unfortunate metaphysical ideas recently formulated…..” The electron has become at present day, a sort of fetish for many physicists, by which they think to explain all phenomena.” (27) (34)
In a toast to a gathering of his illustrious colleagues, J.J. Thomson makes a rather startling remark:
“Here is to the electron, may it be of no use to anyone.” (28)
It must be remembered that it was Thomson himself that is credited with the quantification of the so-called electron, so what would motivate him to make such an outlandish statement? (35)
Charles Steinmetz outright rejected the electron concept, or what he sometimes called the “Ionic Theory of Electricity.” He regarded the notion of electronic charge as an impediment to the understanding of the behavior of electricity, to quote:
“Unfortunately, to a large extent in dealing with the dielectric field, the pre-historic conception of the electro-static charge on the conductor still exists, and by its use destroys the analogy between the two components of the electrical field, the magnetic and the dielectric and makes the consideration of the dielectric field unnecessarily complicated.” (29)
After the introduction of the myth of Santa Clause, we as children are also “taught” that “electricity is the flow of electrons.” It is later learned the truth of Santa, but the fallacy of the electron persists.
Oliver Heaviside writes extensively on the mis-guided notion that electricity is the flow of electrons in a so-called conductor. “A perfect conductor is a perfect obstructer, but does not absorb the energy of the electromagnetic wave…...”
“The properties of a perfect conductor are derived from those common conductors by examining what would happen if the resistivity were continuously reduced, and ultimately became zero. In this way, we find that a perfect conductor is a perfect obstructer, for one thing, which idea is singularly at variance with popular notions regarding conductors…...”
“According to Ohm’s Law alone, a perfect conductor should be one which carried an infinite current under a finite voltage, and the current would flow all through it because it does so ordinarily. But what is left out of consideration here is the manner in which the assumed steady state is established. If we take this into account, we find that there is no steady state when the resistance is zero, for the variable period is infinitely prolonged, and Ohm’s Law is out of it, so far as the usual applications goes…...”
“The smaller the resistance the greater the time taken for the current to get into the conductor from its boundary, where it is initiated. In the limit, with no resistance, it never gets in at all. Where then is the current?” (30)
Heaviside continues:
“The uniformly distributed current of the steady state appropriate to finite conductivity becomes a mere surface current when the conductivity is infinite.”
“In the usual sense that an electrical current is a phenomenon of matter, it has become quite an abstraction, for there is no matter concerned in it. It is shut out completely.” (31)
The electron represents a phenomenon of electronics, but not a phenomenon of electricity. Moreover, the motion of electrons is representative of the time rate of the destruction of electric induction, this is what is known as resistance. The concept of electrons finds, however, useful application in the theory of so-called semi-conductors, such as silicon, carbon, selenium, etc.
Where it is found in practice that electrical devices do not consume energy but serve to convert this energy into another useful form, electronic devices in practice consume nearly all the energy, turning it into useful heat.
The contemporary Leibnitz-Einstein notion of the electron has worked further mischief into electrical theory by it becoming a “catch all” for kindred phenomena, such as the cathode ray, etc.
The electron has become so endeared to the physicist that any criticism of it will draw an almost fanatical reaction.
What has been learned here is that in its fundamental nature, electricity is not a physical phenomenon married to gross physical matter, and such it should be left aside in the Science of Electricity, and the ill-advised pronouncements of the physicist should be ignored.

Informational Phase Space: An Neo-Anaxagoran Ontological and Metaphysical Paradigm
🚀 What if space-time is just the scoreboard of an information game the universe has been playing since the first femtosecond?
That isn’t sci-fi clickbait; it’s the core hunch behind Informational Phase Space Cosmology (IPS)—a rapidly maturing framework that treats information (correlations, entropic flows, topological “memory”) as the real substance of reality, with the geometry of space-time merely emergent. And the latest James Webb Space Telescope deep-field data just handed IPS the sort of opening scene every paradigm shift dreams of.
🔄 JWST’s weird cosmic spin-bias
Four separate teams probing JWST deep fields report that roughly two-thirds of very-distant galaxies are spinning the same way, an alignment hard to square with an isotropic Big Bang. One group even suggests our entire observable cosmos might be the interior of an ancient, spinning black-hole-like structure—a notion that resurrects Gödel’s old rotating-universe idea and instantly explains the fresh JWST asymmetry(Live Science).
IPS predicts exactly this sort of large-scale vorticity. In its 14-dimensional information manifold, “informational vorticity” twists entanglement currents; when you project that manifold down to 3 + 1 space-time, you see rotating galaxies and preferred axes in the CMB.
✨ Why IPS is so tempting
Fewer moving parts. ΛCDM needs dark energy, dark matter, and inflation to keep the books balanced. IPS starts with just three postulates (information, correlator geometry, feedback memory) yet still generates curvature, expansion, and matter as emergent bookkeeping—not bespoke patches.
Built-in fixes for the Hubble tension. Because our 3-D slice can re-slice the information manifold over time, the locally-measured H₀ will drift relative to early-epoch inferences—precisely what astronomers observe.
Natural dark-energy analogue. Accelerated expansion shows up as entropic “pressure” from unfolding informational degrees of freedom, not a mysterious fluid.
Cosmic memory. IPS sectors act like neural-network attractors; the universe literally remembers past topological states, giving a concrete path for cosmic feedback and self-tuning.
🔬 How do we test it—now?

🧩 Where the community can jump in
Data hackers – scrape JWST rotation catalogs; look for redshift-dependent drift in the spin-bias amplitude.
Q-lab folks – emulate the 3-qubit “Pauli-curvature” toy model; compare emergent metric with IPS analytic form (Appendix B of the preprint).
CMB statisticians – re-analyze low-ℓ Planck maps with an informational vorticity template instead of a simple dipole.
Philosophy-of-science nerds – debate whether IPS’s “universe that learns itself” ontology rescues Wheeler’s It-from-Bit without invoking panpsychism.
🎯 TL;DR
JWST just lobbed a spinning curveball at standard cosmology. IPS not only expects that curveball, it catches it with one hand while tidying up the Hubble tension and dark-energy fuss. Better yet, we can start shooting at the theory right now with telescopes, interferometers, and quantum chips already humming.
Whether IPS survives those shots or not, the next few years are going to be ridiculously fun—for astronomers, quantum engineers, and anyone who thinks reality might be written in the language of information itself.
Grab popcorn. The data deluge has only begun.

The Integratron is a unique and enigmatic structure located in Landers, California, near Joshua Tree National Park. Designed by George Van Tassel, a former aircraft mechanic and ufologist, it was built between 1954 and 1959.
Core Technical Design of the Integratron
Structure: A 38-foot-high, 55-foot-diameter all-wood dome built without nails or metal, using shipbuilding techniques with glued layers of old-growth Douglas fir. The adhesive is primarily paint and caulk, creating a seamless, non-metallic structure.
Electrostatic Generator: Designed as an "electrostatic generator" for cell rejuvenation and time travel, Van Tassel claimed it harnessed geomagnetic energy from a vortex beneath the site. Magnetometers detect elevated magnetic fields at its center

Last Engineer to Work on the Integratron: Dollard, an electrical engineer and Tesla researcher, was one of the few to understand the Integratron’s original purpose. He designed a pulse modulator for its energy systems, critical for its purported electrostatic functions.
Connection to Lakhovsky’s Multi-Wave Oscillator (MWO):
The Integratron was inspired by Georges Lakhovsky’s MWO, a high-voltage, high-frequency device theorized to enhance cellular health via electromagnetic fields. Dollard reverse-engineered the MWO’s unbalanced design, which used longitudinal waves (non-Hertzian) for energy transmission without loss.
Dollard emphasized the MWO’s grounding system (e.g., 16 ground rods in a radial pattern) to optimize Earth’s conductivity, a principle likely applied to the Integratron.
Four-Quadrant Electricity Theory: Dollard’s work on the Integratron tied into his broader research on dielectric and magnetic induction (Psi and Phi fields), aligning with Van Tassel’s vision of the structure as a "resonant tabernacle" for energy manipulation
Energy and Wave Theories Behind the Integratron
Longitudinal Waves: Dollard and Van Tassel believed the Integratron could harness longitudinal (scalar) waves, which propagate without energy loss, unlike transverse EM waves. This was key to claims of "time travel" and anti-gravity effects.
Ether and Electrostatics: Dollard’s theories posited that high-voltage electrostatic potentials could repel the "Ether" (the medium of space), reducing inertia—a concept Van Tassel may have incorporated for the Integratron’s rejuvenation goals.
Geomagnetic Vortex: The site was chosen for its intersection of geomagnetic forces, which Dollard’s grounding systems aimed to amplify.

Fascinating!
