Located 20 miles north of Joshua Tree National Park in Landers, California, is a unique dome-shaped building called The Integratron, where you can experience the intersection of art, science, and magic. The Integratron was created by Geroege Van Tassel (1910-1978), who "claimed that the structure is based on the design of Moses' Tabernacle, the writings of Nikola Tesla and telepathic directions from extraterrestrials." The wooden dome, 38 feet high and 55 feet in diameter, was designed to be an electrostatic generator "for the purpose of rejuvenation and time travel."
Believers say that the Integretron's location plays a big role in its special powers, that its structure amplifies the strong geomagnetic forces of the area. This has been put to the test by magnetometers, which purportedly reveal a "significant spike in the earth's magnetic field in the center of the Integratron."
Today, the Integretron is privately owned by three sisters and available for rent. You can get it for a day, or sign up for a "sound bath" inside of the structure. I'm fascinated by the supposed powers of this place, and hope to visit it sometime.
