Researchers in many countries have long tormented by the question: how did the creators of the Egyptian pyramids were brought huge blocks from the quarry to the construction site? It seems that one person in the world knew the answer, and it helped him to build a giant coral castle in Florida.

Novels and stories of the Leningrad writer Alexandra Belyaeva (1884-1942) known to all. But hardly anyone paid attention to the fact that the science fiction writer, little was invented. Usually Alexander Romanovich just creatively been understanding the facts that became known to him from literature or even from daily Newspapers. Judge for yourself... the basis of the "Stars kets", as can be seen already from the title, was the idea KE Tsiolkovsky; "Head Professor Douelya" and "amphibian Man" Belyaev wrote, learning about the works of S. Bryukhonenko, before the great Patriotic war involved the transplantation of organs; "Castle witches" Alexander Romanovich created, after reviewing the results of studies of Leningrad Professor G.I. of babaca, which in the early 1940s, began the study of ball lightning...

In this series novel "Ariel" as it apart. On what facts relied Belyaev, writing about flying humans is unknown. Is it really true to his rule? It turns out there. Belyaev not only read about the "tricks of levitation" Indian yogis, but probably heard about the fate of a remarkable man, his contemporary, one time lived not far from the Leningrad Belyaeva...

Today in the us state of Florida anyone knows of its main attractions is a giant coral castle. The most meticulous lovers of the exotic even calculated that the total weight of the rocks, of which it consists, reaches 1100 T. meanwhile have built it, you can say, bare hands, one man here and to this day as a sorcerer.

Edward Leedskalnin was born in Latvia in 1886, he graduated from the 4th grade of the gymnasium - on the greater his parents did not have money, then I went to work, but on the good and well-paid place to find it failed. And then there happened drama in my personal life: the day before the wedding he threw the bride. Familiar, though not surprised: the groom was unsightly appearance, small growth (hardly reached 150 cm) and also poor.

Having collected simple belongings, Edward at the beginning of XX century has left the country. Positives the world, he eventually settled in America, where for $ 12 bought 4 acres of land, and began his strange building.

Without transport and labour force he had brought from the Gulf coast of coral stone, and he moved a multi-ton blocks, and treated them. Local residents remembered that blocks from ed flew through the air, like snowflakes. Only once in 20 years of construction, he hired a truck to transport hewn stone to the construction site. The driver was strictly forbidden to be present when loading huge "bricks". He came at the appointed hour, and every time the machine was already loaded.

Local residents tried to find out the secret of Edward, but he remained silent, only once he accidentally dropped that knows the secret of the Egyptian pyramids. For unsociability and asceticism Latvians called Gloomy ed, and because of his eccentricities nobody annoyed, hermit left alone.

Meanwhile, Edward had built his castle and became involved in astronomy: here and still are one of the most accurate in the US telescopes and a sundial. The master himself lived in motroway cell, where now is open a small Museum. If you look at the pathetic guns truly Titanic work of this man, involuntarily there is a question: and whether it is possible to make at least a stool? Preserved record of Edward, his calculations, but briochette they are more like drafts student than scientific works. Liedskalnins died of tuberculosis in 1953 and took his secrets to the grave.

As suggested by the author of the book about coral castle ray Stoner, Edward following the ancient builders of the pyramids discovered the secret to control gravity. According to this concept, our planet is covered with a giant energy grid, and at the intersections of the lines of force is concentrated in the internal energy of the Earth. It is using it supposedly can do what we perceive as magic or a miracle. Where Edward had built his castle, and is one of these intersections.

Some researchers believe that Edward castle was built in the place of a landing of a UFO, so there are so many astronomical objects. This assumption does not apply to the discharge incredible: modern Egyptologists are increasingly talking about the extraterrestrial origin of ancient Egyptian civilization.

This hypothesis became interested in our compatriot, candidate of technical Sciences Vladimir Namoroka. He came to the conclusion that the construction of the pyramids in Egypt did not slaves... Known, for example, the fact is that while the construction of the pyramids of the ancient builders used not only manual labor, but sometimes resorted to the help of a mysterious machine, which in the Bible is called "the ark of the Covenant". There's even described how she was: a small drawer was pulled out of the blue flame.

Vladimir Zamoroko've been trying to understand the principle of operation of these wonderful building machines. The researcher believes that the Egyptians used not electric and magnetic fields, and gravitational. After much computing scientist came to the conclusion that the main components of the Egyptian machines were hydrogen, lithium and lithium hydride.

The researcher even determined the size of these machines. "Of the three known devices the largest of them was "the ark of the Covenant", he was kept in the pyramid of Cheops and weighed about 30-40 kg, - told Namoroka. - The average, "the Arc of the Covenant," in the pyramid of Khafre, its weight was about 12-15 kg And, finally, a little, "Hancock", located in the pyramid Mycerinos, weighed no more than 3-4 kg Devices were placed in the same sarcophagi, which scientists have found in the pyramids of Giza. At the time of the Bulgarian prophet Baba Vanga was told that in the mountains of Bulgaria hidden sarcophagus of Egypt, which contains such a device. Apparently, when ancient Egyptian civilization collapsed, the priests decided to hide the machine, and some even destroy..."

However, the fact that once created, can then be repeated by someone else. This inventor and became Sullen ed.

However, it's true or original way to attract tourists, it is not clear, but visitors to the castle, as I tell people, there had been, waiting for an incredible experience, which can be called enlightenment or illumination. Many, for example, feel then rejuvenated ten years.

Maureen Clemmons, Amateur-Egyptologist from the University of California, put forward the hypothesis about the construction of the pyramids. She believes that the ancient Egyptians moved pyramid by air. However, Clemmons considers that was used much more simple vehicle.

To confirm this hypothesis, in 2001 Clemmons has assembled a team of like-minded people and decided to test his idea into practice. They reason was something like this. It is known that the ancient Vikings moved their ships on land, putting them on a rolling logs and raising the wind all the sails. The same method was used and Prince Oleg in the attack on Constantinople. Well, if you replace a kite sails, rollers may not be necessary...

To start the test took a child's kite and antiretrovi toy obelisk. Then the serpent, and the goods began to increase in size, until finally in the Mojave desert, did not appear bizarre construction of nylon ropes and blocks. On top was whether snakes, whether otravy brightly painted parachute of the "flying wing", below attached Tony obelisk, calmly stood unknown how long North of Los Angeles.

With the fourth attempt obelisk managed for a few seconds to lift up above the earth. Very low, but it has allowed to carry him on a fair distance.

Clemmons and her team triumphed. Now they are going to repeat this experiment themselves pyramids where the winds of 14-16 m/s not uncommon, and to raise in the air Tony stone cubic

However, Egyptologists professionals belong to a similar idea skeptically. "Even if this experiment will be successful, " they say, " this will not be enough strong evidence that the ancient Egyptians used this way of transportation. Between "can do" and "done" is the distance to an enormous size. Yet not found any evidence that the Egyptians knew about the air snakes, so flying stones - unaffordable for serious science exotic..."

However, Maureen Clemmons stands on its own. She believes that the ancient Egyptians did not accidentally so worshipped the God of the wind Shu.
