The Hutchison Effect

People often ask, "What exactly is the Hutchison Effect?"

This brief essay is an attempt to answer that question to the

satisfaction of the majority.

     First of all, the Hutchison Effect is a collection of

phenomena which were discovered accidentally by John Hutchison

during attempts to study the longitudinal waves of Tesla back

in 1979.  In other words, the Hutchison Effect is not simply a

singular effect.  It is many.

     The Hutchison Effect occurs as the result of radio wave

interferences in a zone of spatial volume encompassed by high

voltage sources, usually a Van de Graff generator, and two or

more Tesla coils.

     The effects produced include levitation of heavy objects,

fusion of dissimilar materials such as metal and wood (exactly

as portrayed in the movie, "The Philadelphia Experiment"), the

anomalous heating of metals without burning adjacent material,

spontaneous fracturing of metals (which separate by sliding in

a sideways fashion), and both temporary and permanent changes

in the crystalline structure and physical properties of metals.

     The levitation of heavy objects by the Hutchison Effect

is not---repeat not---the result of simple electrostatic or

electromagnetic levitation.  Claims that these forces alone

can explain the phenomenon are patently ridiculous, and easily

disproved by merely trying to use such methods to duplicate

what the Hutchison Effect has achieved, which has been well

documented both on film and videotape, and has been witnessed

many times by numerous credentialed scientists and engineers.

Challengers should note that their apparatus must be limited

to the use of 75 Watts of power from a 120 Volt AC outlet, as

that is all that is used by Hutchison's apparatus to levitate

a 60-pound cannon ball.

     The fusion of dissimilar materials, which is exceedingly

remarkable, indicates clearly that the Hutchison Effect has a

powerful influence on Van der Waals forces.  In a striking and

baffling contradiction, dissimilar substances can simply "come

together," yet the individual substances do not dissociate.  A

block of wood can simply "sink into" a metal bar, yet neither

the metal bar nor the block of wood come apart.  Also, there

is no evidence of displacement, such as would occur if, for

example, one were to sink a stone into a bowl of water.

     The anomalous heating of metal without any evidence of

burning or scorching of the adjacent materials (usually wood)

is a clear indication that possibly the nature of heat may not

be completely understood.  This has far-reaching implications

for thermodynamics, which hinges entirely on the presumption

of such knowledge.  It should be noted that the entirety of

thermodynamics is represented by the infrared portion of the

electromagnetic spectrum, which is insignificant in a context

of 0 Hz to infinite Hz.  The anomalous heating exhibited by

the Hutchison Effect shows plainly that we have much to learn,

especially where thermodynamics and electromagnetism meet.

     The spontaneous fracturing of metals, as occurs with the

Hutchison Effect, is unique for two reasons: (1) there is no

evidence of an "external force" causing the fracturing, and

(2) the method by which the metal separates involves a sliding

motion in a sideways direction, horizontally.  The metal simply

comes apart.

     Some temporary changes in the crystalline structure and

physical properties of metals are somewhat reminiscent of the

"spoon bending" of Uri Geller, except that there is no one near

the metal samples when the changes take place.  One video shows

a spoon flapping up and down like a limp rag in a stiff breeze.

In the case of permanent changes, a metal bar will be hard at

one end, like steel, and soft at the other end, like powdered

lead.  Again, this is evidence of strong influence on Van der

Waals forces.

     The radio wave interferences involved in producing these

effects are produced from as many as four and five different

radio sources, all operating at low power.  However, the zone

in which the interferences take place is stressed by hundreds

of kilovolts.

     It is surmised by some researchers that what Hutchison

has done is tap into the Zero Point Energy.  This energy gets

its name from the fact that it is evidenced by oscillations

at zero degrees Kelvin, where supposedly all activity in an

atom ceases.  The energy is associated with the spontaneous

emission and annihilation of electrons and positrons coming

from what is called "the quantum vacuum."  The density of the

energy contained in the quantum vacuum is estimated by some at

ten to the thirteenth Joules per cubic centimeter, which is

reportedly sufficient to boil off the Earth's oceans in a

matter of moments.

     Given access to such energies, it is small wonder that

the Hutchison Effect produces such bizarre phenomena.  At the

present time, the phenomena are difficult to reproduce with

any regularity.  The focus for the future, then, is first to

increase the frequency of occurrence of the effects, then to

achieve some degree of precision in their control.

     The work is continuing at this time.  Before long, we

shall see what progress can be made.
