Chapter 22<br />

The sun was just hitting the peaks of the Salzkammergut and the roads<br />

were all but empty. Two and a half hours to Munich airport via Bavaria,<br />

the cradle of Nazism, and I could box up this whole thing and head home.<br />

The beauty of the topography and the shadows of the past were<br />

inextricable. It was time to move forward again.<br />

I now had a sequence of events that allowed many of the pieces to fall<br />

into place. I had seen the plans of a craft that had drawn on a source of<br />

energy that could not be explained by conventional science. The<br />

Germans, a people who knew the value of good engineering when they<br />

saw it, had had sufficient confidence in the technology to throw money<br />

and resources at it. When all else fails, follow the money. It rarely lies.<br />

It must have freaked the Americans out.<br />

At the end of the war, the U.S. Counter Intelligence Corps, the CIC,<br />

had spent nine months debriefing Schauberger. They would rapidly have<br />

come to realize that implosion technology had nothing to do with<br />

"nuclear" energy in the bomb sense, even though Schauberger himself<br />

described the processes at work as "atomic."<br />

What they would have learned, however, would have been no less<br />

unsettling.<br />

Schauberger believed that his machines were generating an antigravity<br />

effect whose power potential was unlimited.<br />

The CIC agents would have had little comprehension of the mechanics<br />

of the device—why should they?—but somebody must have been<br />

spooked by it. Why else did they incarcerate the old man for nine<br />

months? Why else did they threaten him?<br />

By the early part of 1946, following the debriefings and their<br />

admonition to Schauberger never again to involve himself in "atomic"<br />

science, the CIC would have had in its possession the rudiments of an<br />

entirely new propulsion medium—one that 18 months later would have<br />

allowed General Nathan Twining, head of the USAAF's Air Materiel<br />

Command, to admit to a subordinate in a classified memorandum that it<br />

was possible "within the present U.S. knowledge—provided extensive<br />
