Radiant Energy - Experiments and Theory
This article was originally posted as MORAY2.ASC on the KeelyNet BBS on January 8th, 1990.
Compiled in Los Angeles, California, January, 1939, from T. Henry Moray notes and printed booklets written by Dr. Moray from 1913 to 1926. See "Beyond the Light Rays" and other publications. This account may lack continuity.
This account will endeavor to give a brief explanation of the Moray Radiant Energy device whereby it is possible to utilize the vast source of energy of the universe WITHOUT a prime mover through the splitting of the atom by the action of the universe and not by man-made splitting of the atom.
The Moray device IS NOT PERPETUAL MOTION, but it utilizes energy that ALREADY EXISTS and which it TRANSFORMS into USEFUL FORMS. An electrical generator is in the true sense of the word NOT a generator, as it CREATES NOTHING.
Electricity is NOT MADE by the generator, it is MERELY PUMPED. From that standpoint, an electric generator might be referred to as an ELECTRIC PUMP and the Moray Radiant Energy as a HIGH-SPEED OSCILLATING ATOM TURBINE.
On page seventeen of the "Nature of the World and Man" (compiled by the technical staff, Chicago Institute of Technology), we find it states that our planet is receiving ENERGY FROM THE SUN CONTINUOUSLY at the rate of 160,000 horsepower per inhabitant of the Earth at the present time.
The following is taken from "Experiments with Alternate Currents of High Potential and High Frequency," by Nikola Tesla, page fifty-eight, written in 1904:
"Ere many generations pass our machinery will be DRIVEN BY POWER
obtainable AT ANY POINT IN THE UNIVERSE - Is this energy Static
or Kinetic?
If Static, our hopes are in vain; if Kinetic, and THIS WE KNOW
IT IS FOR CERTAIN, then it is a mere question of time when men
will succeed in attaching their machinery to the very wheel work
of Nature."
The Aurora Borealis is considered to be very definitely an electrical phenomenon produced by the passage of electric charges through the rarefied gases of the higher atmosphere. (natural neon lights)
The conversion of matter TO energy in the stars is now very generally accepted as demonstrated, and reasoning from what occurs in radioactive disintegration, during which energy waves are radiated, we may conclude that energy waves of VERY HIGH FREQUENCY are sent out from the stars, one of which is our sun.
As in the reception of radio waves, so in this case a circuit can be constructed and tuned as to RESPOND to the particular wave frequency "oscillations" which it is desired to intercept.
Dr. Moray uses a "valve" (the Moray Valve) to PREVENT RETURN OF THE ENERGY TO THE OUTER CIRCUIT and FORCE IT TO GO THROUGH THE POWER APPLICATION CIRCUIT.
Experiments have been made at different places many miles away from all power lines, one experiment being given at a point more than 50 miles from all power lines, and 26 miles from even a farmer's telephone. The places for these experiments were selected by the members of the parties making the test and not by the inventor, and the places were NOT pre-arranged but selected by them AS THEY DROVE ALONG in their own car, not the car of the inventor, looking for a place to make the test.
The device on an endurance test was operated under standard R.R. seals to a total of 157 hours and 55 minutes, when the seals were broken and the device put under severe strain and tests made for about an hour longer and then shut off.
Close examination of the device disclosed that all parts were in perfect shape and could have been run indefinitely. During the entire test the lights burned evenly and brightly without flickering and there was no change in the brilliancy from day to day.
The quantity of current passing through the secondary of the transformer is sufficient to burn up wire of that size if ordinary current were used, yet there is NO heating of the transformer even though there is no circulation of air through it to cool it, as it is completely enclosed. All parts of the machine run ABSOLUTELY COOL, regardless of the length of time operated. (due to extremely high frequencies used)
It makes no difference whether one fifty-watt lamp is used or whether fifty or more of them are connected to the machine, the DRAFT OF CURRENT IS ADAPTED TO THE LOAD.
There is not a sound from the machine when in operation, there being NO MOVING PARTS.
In 1931 an experimental demonstration was made in the presence of a nationally known physicist, a professor in one of the greatest universities of the country, at which time he noted and mentioned the following:
"That when the oscillators are connected to the circuit, the
condensors fill SLOWLY, and the LONGER THE CURRENT IS APPLIED TO
CHARGE THEM, the GREATER the charge they take, up to their
maximum for the applied voltage, much as in filling a bucket by
pouring the water into it, instead of taking the charge
practically instantaneously, as is ordinarily the case with
condensors.
"That the lights ON ONE SPOT are much HOTTER than is ever the
case with any current used at the present time, due to the
incandescence of the gas in the globes under the influence of
the very high frequency that the rest of the globe remained
cool.
"That the size of wire in the transformer COULD NOT CARRY THE
AMPERAGE PASSING THROUGH IT without burning up, IF ORDINARY
CURRENT WERE USED, yet the wires remained absolutely COOL no
matter how long the machine operated.
"The above points show that there is developed something which is
entirely out of the ordinary, and cannot be accounted for on the
basis of induction from existing power lines or current from
batteries."
In later experiments tests were made successfully while the device was set up in A MOVING AUTOMOBILE.
Beginning in 1925 many men of science have come from foreign countries and from the East and West and have witnessed experimental demonstrations and not one of them has been able to find any fault with what they have seen or heard. Names of these men of science will be furnished upon request.
These men have had the device opened for their inspection and have pronounced the experiments wonderful, :
- 1) that the current is HIGH FREQUENCY,
- 2) the color of the light different,
- 3) that the device carries many times as much current without
even getting slightly warm than any other electrical
device of like construction known to man today could do
without bursting into flames.
That the tubes used are far more powerful than anything known to science today. The drawings, circuits and theory have been pronounced by leading men of science as scientifically, electrically, mechanically sound and correct.
It is generally accepted now by science, and Dr. Moray's device proves, THERE IS ENERGY COMING FROM SOMEWHERE, that the EARTH IS SURROUNDED BY SUCH A FIELD OF ENERGY.
This energy, or as Dr. Moray explained - these oscillations of Energy, are picked up by the device through the oscillators, or neutron bombardment.
As stated, these surgings or oscillations of Energy coming and going as the waves of the sea; are soaked up by the Moray Device because the Moray Device is TUNED TO OSCILLATE IN HARMONY WITH THE OSCILLATIONS OF THE UNIVERSE. Every oscillation, whether large or small, is completed during the same interval of time.
The beat note of time, the heart beats of life, the oscillations of the Universe all prove the same great fact - that oscillations are all governed by the same cycle of time, completed during the same interval of time, and as I stated before, these waves of energy have a REGULAR BEAT NOTE of time, coming and going as the waves of the sea, but in a VERY DEFINITE MATHEMATICAL ORDER OF TIME, coming to the earth FROM EVERY DIRECTION with a regular BEAT NOTE that might be referred to as the Father of Time, the Sire of Gravitation.
(Note that Keely said that Gravity is Time, if one could control gravity, one could also CONTROL TIME.)
This energy has a DEFINITE ELASTIC RIGIDITY and DENSITY, which is subject to displacement and strains.
(Recall Keely's etheric vapor with various densities based on the order of vibration which was applied to disrupt water. Lower levels such as molecular yielded a taffy like substance, while higher levels such as atomic yielded a vapor or a gas and in its highest form, an electrical type current transmissible through a wire.)
When the strain is removed, this medium will spring to its old position AND BEYOND, surging back and forth as the waves of the sea, and will continue to oscillate until the original pressure is used up.
If the internal impedance is too great, there will be no oscillations, but it will merely slide back in a dead beat to its unrestrained state.
Cutting down the RESISTANCE TO THE MINIMUM and by SYNCHRONOUS ACTIONS of the device WITH the actions of the Universe, RECOVERY WILL BE QUICKER and quicker until inertia will assert itself and lengthen out the time of final recovery by carrying the RECOIL BEYOND THE NATURAL OSCILLATION and thus prolonging the vibrations by oscillation.
When the recovery is distinctly oscillatory AND HARMONICS SET IN, the oscillations will GO ON FOREVER because they are in tune with the oscillations of the Universe.
As I said, these electric oscillations ARE NOT SIMPLE OSCILLATIONS, but surgings with a DEFINITE BEAT NOTE of the evolution of matter and the evolution of energy.
It is not claimed that all of Dr. Moray's theories are proven, but it is claimed that the device works. The results are certain and that in the absence of better explanation as given in the 1931 edition of "Beyond the Light Rays," Dr. Moray's explanation is as good as any.
In explaining this theory in 1929 to a well-known and noted American Scientist, he remarked, "You go in your theory BACK of the Law of Gravitation."
We may readily take it for granted that a perpetual light, like perpetual motion, is an impossibility. I say that because I do not believe in perpetual light or motion, which, in a sense, is one and the same thing as getting something for nothing.
In this day and age it is not well to say anything is impossible, but getting something for nothing goes beyond my conception of thought.
What I have done in Radiant Energy has been and is perhaps righfully called "radical." Nevertheless, of the great number of learned men who have seen and heard of my work, not one has been able to disprove my claims, theories or discoveries.
Among those in question have been some of America's foremost in Science, although they have spent from many hours to many days on my theory and claims and test demonstrations. Hence this further explanation of the Moray theory, on which Moray has spent his time from boyhood.
The facts and theories herein contained are not contrary to ideas that science HAS NOW ACCEPTED (1945). They are, however, original with me in application and when I first publicly advanced them in 1925 they were "killed" as it were by those who heard them before they got very far. Be that as it may, I have taken "Radiant Energy" and found a means of using it.
Heat, light, etc. are not things in themselves, but sensations or effects PRODUCED BY this "Radiant Energy" DIRECTLY or INDIRECTLY IN MATTER.
Electricity is vibrations or radiation. Where ether (or if you do not like that name, call it what you will) is QUIESCENT, WE SEE NOTHING. Light CAUSES vibrations of this "ETHER" and it is these vibrations which cause our eyes to detect.
All substances are really COMBINATIONS OF ONE PRIMORDIAL SUBSTANCE, i.e. ELECTRICITY, or, in other words, electricity is SPECIFICALLY MODIFIED ETHER.
(Interesting that Keely said that light in space and from the sun is impossible to see. It is only manifested through percussion with the atmosphere of the planet. We have heard that a film camera outside a spaceship CANNOT TAKE A VISIBLE PHOTO.)
Electrons in motion go to constitute an electric current. Ether waves IN MOTION go to constitute an electric current.
What electricity is to matter, so is electric force to common mechanical force, and electrical inertia to common inertia. By inertia, I mean the ratio of force to acceleration. Perhaps electric inertia might be defined as the ratio of electric motive force to the acceleration of electric displacement.
Below will be found some excerpts from some Scientific books.
"Astronomy" by Robert H. Baker, Ph.D. Professor of Astronomy University of Illinois, page 303:
"Another problem relates to the apparent lavish expenditure of
this radiation. Of all the energy that pours forth from the
sun, less than one part in 200 million is intercepted by the
planets and their satellites.
The remainder spreads through interstellar space with little
chance, so far was we can know, of being recovered. The
suggestion that the sun shines only in the direction of
material that can intercept it makes an appeal from the point
of view of economy, bt appears to have little else to
recommend it. It would seem that nature is squandering its
resources of energy so prodigally that it must end in
bankruptcy; but we doubtless have at present an IMPERFECT
ACCOUNT OF THE SITUATION."
"Foundations of the Universe" by M. Luckiesh, D.Sc. Director of Lighting Research Laboratory, General Electric Company, printed in 1925, page V:
"In the far-off stellar crucibles we see the same laws being
obeyed as in our laboratories. As we trace down to the
almost infinitesimal constituents of the extremely minute
atom we find that apparently IT DOES NOT EXIST AT ALL as the
realistic matter which we have SUPPOSED IT TO BE.
There at its very foundation it seems to consist of electric
charges which probably SIMULATE THE MOTION OF CELESTIAL
BODIES. It is becoming more and more certain that the
apparent complexity of nature is due to our lack of
knowledge. As the picture unfolds it promises a MARVELOUS
SIMPLICITY."
"Foundations of the Universe", pages 41-43:
"The great success of the atomistic principles as it is
involved in the kinetic theory of matter is one of the
wonders of the scientific age. It is to be expected that it
has found other applications equally fascinating and
promising. It is now being pressed further into the service
of explaining the structure of matter.....
"When Maxwell (1873) propounded the electromagnetic theory of
light (radiation), his achievement was epochal. The exact
manner in which the radiant energy traversed space was not
known, and the exact epochal event was the founding by Planck
(1900) of the quantum theory.
"Here we have the atomistic principle applied to energy of
instead of being confined to the material of the universe as
it had been. In other words, in the quantum theory we have
the atomistic idea applied to physical processes.
"We now have the atom of matter, the atom (electron) of
electricity, and the atom (quantum) of action (a product of
energy and time). Planck assumed the emission of radiation
(from the sun, a lamp filament, etc..) TO OCCUR
DISCONTINUOUSLY.
"He conceived elements of energy of EQUAL MAGNITUDE analogous
to the equality of electrons, or atoms of a given element.
Radiation or radiant energy is emitted at various wavelengths
or frequencies WHICH MUST BE TAKEN INTO ACCOUNT in laws of
radiation.....
"Now the physicist uses quanta as commonly as he does
electrons and atoms and molecules. Bodies are built of
molecules, the molecules of atoms, and the atoms of electrons
(and protons). Here we see the atomistic principle applied
to "material" (matter) and then to electricity (What shall we
call it?).
"Finally, a physical process - the radiation emitted by the
electrons - is divided into quanta. With such pictures of
the universe being constructed we may cease to be surprised
at anything, but our interest and admiration will grow. Will
we ever get to the FINAL FOUNDATION?"
"One of the most marvelous relationships that has ever been
revealed in the entire science of physics is that between
light and electricity. Knowing what we do at the present
time in regard to the structure of atoms, this relationship
is not quite so surprising. However, considering the total
absence of knowledge, a half century ago (???? depends on
where you look), pertaining to the existence of electrons in
atoms of matter, the sudden revelation that light (and
radiation in general) was an electrical phenomena was very
startling and revolutionary.
"Even today these persons who are unfamiliar with fundamental
physics find it difficult to believe that energy traveling
from yonder star to the eyes IS ELECTROMAGNETIC IN NATURE.
But that it is so has been amply proved.
"The atom in those distant stellar crucibles having moving
electrons which are emitting electromagnetic waves OF MANY
WAVELENGTHS or frequencies. Here on Earth we have many
'receiving stations' which are TUNED TO CERTAIN RANGES OF
WAVELENGTHS."
"Radiant Energy" by Edgar Lucien Larkin, Director Lowe Observatory Echo Mountain, California, printed in 1903, page 17:
"Radiant here means PROCEEDING FROM A CENTER IN STRAIGHT LINES
IN EVERY DIRECTION. Energy is internal and inherent.
Professor Barker, "Physics," page 4, says:
"'Energy is defined as a condition of matter in virtue of
which any definite portion may effect changes in any other
definite portion.'
"This was written in 1892, and discoveries since confirm it.
Energy then, is a state of matter, or, rather, the result of
a particular state of condition in which matter may be when
any observed PHASE OF ENERGY APPEARS."
"He conceived elements of energy of EQUAL MAGNITUDE analogous
to the equality of electrons, or atoms of a given element.
Radiation or radiant energy is emitted at various wavelengths
or frequencies WHICH MUST BE TAKEN INTO ACCOUNT in laws of
radiation.....

Vanguard notes...
An excellent book is out covering much of Moray's work, it is called "The Sea of Energy in which the Earth Floats" and is put out by the COSRAY FOUNDATION based in Salt Lake City, Utah.
Our feeling of the Moray device is that it was tuned to the neutron release which occurs at all times from all masses.
Based on the teachings of Keely and Russell and others, we find that everything is in one of three possible states. Push, pull or balance between the two.
Neutron absorption takes place when matter is "manifesting" and neutron release occurs when matter is "decaying". The third state is that of a balance between the accumulating or dispersing energies and is very temporary in nature.
Moray used radioactive elements in the antenna of his device. This appears to have allowed him to use the radioactive element as a "drain" for resonance with other masses in process of transmutation through radioactive decay, in other words, damn near everything.
Our understanding of the principles of resonance show that energy and mass can be transmitted by tuning to the desired mass and creating a "sink or drain" of lesser potential. The magnitude of the drain will determine the rapidity of the transmission.
Dan Davidson and a partner built a working model of a Moray device which burned up. It is discussed in his book "Energy: Breakthroughs to New Free Energy Devices". ( Available on the KeelyNet products page for $19.95 plus shipping)
We hope this file is of interst use in your understanding and application of some of the basics of free energy. We would greatly appreciate any comments or updates you might wish to share regarding your own experiments in this and other areas which are covered on KeelyNet.
