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,[1] 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.[2]

For example, he claimed that he trained some youngsters to guess 42 playing cards right out of 47 in an ESP test; and he made an appointment with a UFO captain from Andromeda to meet him one night near Joshua Tree (captain didn't show). Once, when I let Chan talk to an actual customer, he embarrassed us terribly when the guy called up and asked me why I hadn't fired him long ago. His value to me was his tremendously innovative mind. He was a totally 'out of the box' thinker."
