DECEMBER 1994 -JANUARY 1995 On 25th November 1912., Marshall B. Gardner of Aurora, Kane County, Illinois, USA submitted his discovery application to the United States Patent Office. Eighteen months later, on 12th May 1914, this federal agency granted Mr Gardner United States Patent 1096102, the second most imponant scientific document ever issued. Its scientific significance is exceeded only by the mechanical flight discovery of Orville and Wilbur Wright in 1903. For reasons which even Mr Gardner could not have fully anticipated in the early 1900s and which are now abundantly clear, his discovery soon became the most highly classified military secret of all Lime. In 1913, Gardner wrote his original book proving beyond any doubt that our Earth is a hollow sphere. So voluminous was the evidence which he continued to amass from stud­ ies of astronomy and polar exploration that he expanded his book to 450 pages in 1920. The title is A Journey to the Earth's Interior, or Have the Poles Really Been Discovered? Although he seems not to have been aware of it, Gardner's work had been prec_eded incompletely by William Reed whose book, Phantom of the Poles, was 281 pages and was published in 1906 in New York City by the Walter S. Rockey Company. The one shortcoming with Mr Reed's theory, othexwise very intelligently developed, was that he had failed to finish his centrifugal force reasoning regarding Earth's formation. As a result, he was never able to logically account for the powerful source of heat and illumina­ tion present in the Eanh's interior. Gardner, on the other hand', did account for this source. The difference is that whereas Reed confined his research strictly to polar exploration, Gardner augmented his with studies of astronomy. The majority of this article will be testimony from the real experts, the people who were there-there at the huge telescopes and especially there in those vast and previously mys­ terious polar regions. But first, this is the common-sense theory responsible for United States Paten~ 1096102. In the beginning, some four or five billion years ago when the Earth was still an enor­ mously expanded ball of supcrhot whirling gas, it gradually began to contract as it cooled. The [aws of physics require cooling gases to condense, and so the rapidly spinning sphere of tenuous gases began to concentrate as the heat loss continued. Self
