Chan Thomas

Chauncey "Chan" Powers Thomas (February 15, 1920 - February 14, 1998) was an American electrical engineer and psychic who authored a hypothesis of global cataclysms involving radical shifts in Earth's electromagnetic fields that increase the viscosity of the crust, causing rapid continental drift. During the 1950s, Thomas was a project engineer on Bell Aircraft's RASCAL missile guidance system and Douglas Aircraft's A4D Skyhawk program, and was later employed in the late 1960s by McDonnell Douglas to work with Robert Wood's "Advanced Concepts" R&D team, which worked on UFO and other fringe science related projects.

 * Evidence exists that prehistoric man put up space vehicles, scientist Chan Thomas said Monday. It's "plausible," he added that some of the vehicles could be those unidentified "flying objects" reported now and then. "But I'm not a flying saucer fan," said Mr. Thomas, who has become recognized as a leading authority in the field of cataclysmic geology. Records of such places as ancient Peru and India support the idea of space vehicles as far back as 15 thousand to 20 thousand years ago, he said. A 12-hundred-ton stone gate in an ancient Peruvian temple, for example, contains writings that indicate it was used to "site" on a satellite, he said. "Anthropologically speaking, man then was a well equipped intellectually as he is today," Mr. Thomas said. Mr. Thomas, who heads an independent aerospace and earth sciences research and ing, man then was as well the Los Angeles, Cal., area, is the only known individual in the scientific community of the Free World to have originated and conducted intensive research on the "earth tumbling theory." Through the ages, he said, increasing weight of polar ice has caused the shell to shift 80 degrees off its axis about three hundred times, the last shift occurring 65 hundred years ago. Scientists now believe the shell rests on a molten layer 60 miles down, he said. In the event of another tumble, North America would probably lie beneath an ocean in the Southern Hemisphere, he theorizes. The Rocky Mountains may have resulted from a tumble 11 thousand years ago, he said. His findings resulted, he said, in the accurate predictions of recent earthquakes in Chile, Morocco, South Africa, and Iran. The recent earthquake in the Yellowstone Park region of Wyoming, he said, probably relieved pressure on the Rocky Mountain area and "gave San Francisco a little added time." The Russians, Mr. Thomas said, are far more knowledgeable than we are in the currents. Mr. Thomas spoke Monday night at the Greater Omaha Chapter of the Armed Forces Communications and Electronics Association at the Non-Commissioned Club Offutt Air Force Base.
