UFO tech coming to Huntington (10/30)

New Age three sisters Joanne, Nancy, and Patty Karl (integratron.com)
I built this to heal, time travel, reverse gravity.
Although sound baths are more grounded in science from Earth, the Karl sisters nonetheless lean into The Integratron’s unique extraterrestrial history, with builder George Van Tassel and his Venusian ET contact beliefs featuring prominently on the official website. The sisters continue to operate the landmark today. Visiting for a meditation and sound bath on a recent afternoon was a diverse crowd. There were crystal-collecting yogis, as well as curious retirees vacationing at nearby Joshua Tree National Park. More

"The Integratron" is a 38-foot-tall (12 m) cupola structure with a diameter of 55 feet (17 m) designed by UFOlogist and space alien contactee George Van Tassel.

The Integratron, Van Tassel claimed, is capable of human rejuvenation, anti-gravity, and time travel.

The Integratron is a structure built in Southern California (in Landers, near spiritual hotspot Joshua Tree), following instructions that Van Tassel consistently claimed were provided directly to him by extraterrestrial visitors from the planet Venus.

The future, like the past, is pale, very pale. Come make contact, Earth brothers and sisters.

The Integratron machine technology was started in 1957, the structure erected in 1959. It was financed predominantly by donations, including funds from superrich recluse Howard Hughes [1, 2].

After Van Tassel's passing in 1978, the building had a series of owners (and was left in various states of disrepair) before sisters Joanne, Nancy, and Patty Karl bought it in the early 2000s.

The three sisters promote the Integratron as an "acoustically perfect structure" and offer "sound baths" they describe as "meditation-like sessions accompanied by tones from 22 quartz crystal bowls, creating binaural beats for relaxation and rejuvenation" [1].

The building is now a part of the National Historic Register and continues to be stewarded by the Karl sisters and their adult children. More
