Communicating with Mars:
The Experiments of Tesla & Hodowanec

by Robert A. Nelson


Nikola Tesla 

While Nikola Tesla was conducting experiments with his Magnifying Transmitter at Colorado Springs in 1899, he detected coherent signals which he determined had originated on Mars. Tesla was widely criticized for his astounding claims, yet no one could seriously dispute him, for he was a solo pioneer without peer. No one since then has reported constructing a Magnifying Transmitter or otherwise replicated his experiment, so the issue remains unresolved and the mystery unsolved. Tesla revealed no technical details in his pronouncements and publications of that period, other than the pertinent patents. His Colorado Springs notebooks were published in the 1980s, but they make no mention of his alleged contact with Mars.

Tesla elaborated on the subject of "Talking with the Planets" in Collier's Weekly (March 1901):

"As I was improving my machines for the production of intense electrical actions, I was also perfecting the means for observing feeble effects. One of the most interesting results, and also one of great practical importance, was the development of certain contrivances for indicating at a distance of many hundred miles an approaching storm, its direction, speed and distance traveled.

"It was in carrying on this work that for the first time I discovered those mysterious effects which have elicited such unusual interest. I had perfected the apparatus referred to so far that from my laboratory in the Colorado mountains I could feel the pulse of the globe, as it were, noting every electrical discharge that occurred within a range of 1100 miles.

"I can never forget the first sensations I experienced when it dawned upon me that I had observed something possibly of incalculable consequences to mankind. I felt as though I were present at the birth of a new knowledge or the revelation of a great truth. My first observations positively terrified me, as there was present in them something mysterious, not to say supernatural, and I was alone in my laboratory at night; but at that time the idea of these disturbances being intelligently controlled signal did not yet present itself to me. The changes I noted were taking place periodically and with such a clear suggestion of number and order that they were not traceable to any cause known to me. I was familiar, of course, with such electrical disturbances as are produced by the sun, Aurora Borealis and earth currents, and I was as sure as I could be of any fact that these variations were due to none of these causes. The nature of my experiments precluded the possibility of the changes being produced by atmospheric disturbances, as has been rashly asserted by some. It was sometime afterward when the thought flashed upon my mind that the disturbances I had observed might be due to an intelligent control. Although I could not decipher their meaning, it was impossible for me to think of them as having been entirely accidental. The feeling is constantly growing in me that I had been the first to hear the greeting of one planet to another. A purpose was behind these electrical signals!"

Decades later on his birthday in 1937, he made this announcement:

"I have devoted much of my time during the year past to the perfecting of a new small and compact apparatus by which energy in considerable amounts can now be flashed through interstellar space to any distance without the slightest dispersion."

Tesla never publicly revealed any technical details of his improved transmitter, but in his 1937 announcement, he also revealed a new formula, possibly pertinent to the apparatus:

"The kinetic potential energy of a body is the result of motion and determined by the product of its mass and the square of its velocity. Let the mass be reduced, the energy is reduced by the same proportion If it be reduced to zero, the energy is likewise zero for any finite velocity."

About 40 years later, Arthur Matthews claimed that Tesla had secretly developed the "Teslascope" for the purpose of communicating with Mars. Dr. Andrija Puharich met with Matthews and discussed the matter with him in an interview which was published in the Pyramid Guide:

"[Arthur Matthews] came from England. Matthews' father was a laboratory assistant to the noted physicist Lord Kelvin back in the 1890s. Tesla came over to England to meet Kelvin to convince him that alternating current was more efficient than direct current. Kelvin at that time opposed the AC movement. In 1902, the Matthews family left England and immigrated to Canada. When Matthew's was 16 his father arranged for him to apprentice under Tesla. He eventually worked for him and continued this alliance until Tesla's death in 1943.

"It is not generally known, but Tesla actually had two huge magnifying transmitters built in Canada, and Matthews operated one of them. Most people know about the Colorado Springs transmitters and the unfinished one on Long Island. I saw the two Canadian transmitters. All the evidence is there.

"[The Teslascope is] the thing Tesla invented to communicate with beings on other planets. There's a diagram of the Teslascope in Matthew's book [The Wall of Light]. In principle, it takes in cosmic ray signals. Eventually the signals are stepped down to audio. Speak into one end, and the signal goes out the other end as a cosmic ray emitter."

Matthews' diagrams of the Teslascope are shown in Figures 1 and 2. They make minimal electronic sense. No one has ever confirmed the reality of the Teslascope.

Several years after Tesla announced his reception of signals from Mars, Guglielmo Marconi also claimed to have heard from an alien radio transmitter. However, Marconi was more easily dismissed by his contemporaries, who claimed that he had received interference from another radio station on Earth.

L. G. Lawrence ~

In the 1970s, L.G. Lawrence (field manager of the Ecola Institute) described his "Communication by Accident" with ET intelligences:

"On October 29, 197.1 while conducting exploratory RBS [Remote Biological Sensing] experiments in Riverside County, CA, our field instrumentation's organic transducer complex intercepted a train of apparently intelligent communication signals (tight spacing and discrete pulse intervals) while accidentally allowed to remain pointed at the constellation Ursa Major during a short rest period. The phenomenon prevailed for somewhat over 33 minutes.

"A somewhat similar phenomenon was observed on April 10, 1972. The apparent signals, aside from seemingly growing weaker, appear to be transmitted at great intervals ranging from weeks to months, possibly years. A faint, coherent, binary-type phenomenon was noted during aural monitoring. Intervals between rapid series of pulse trains ranged from 3 to 10 minutes.

"Because our equipment is impervious to electromagnetic radiation and found free of internal anomalies, the tentative conclusion of biological-type interstellar communications signals has emerged.

"As a mere audio presentation, the instrumentation tape is unpleasant to listen to. However, a fascinating degree of enchantment tends to emerge after the tape has been played back three or four times, typically over a period of weeks. We ascribe this to psycho-acoustical adaptation. The tape contains a short, incremental series of deep, harmonious oscillations resembling nonsense chatter or background modulations. An intelligent character of the overall pulse is applied by discrete spacing patterns, apparent repetitions of sequences, and highly attenuated Gaussian noise."


Gregory Hodowanec ~

In the 1980s, electrical engineer Greg Hodowanec developed his theory of Rhysmonic Cosmology. He also experimented with a Gravity Wave Detector (GWD) of his own design (Figures 3, 4, 5). The simple devices detect "coherent modulations" in the microwave background radiation.

Hodowanec published his first report of "SETI with Gravitational Signals" using his GWDs in the journal Radio Astronomy (April 1986):

"The advantage of a possible gravitational technique for SETI over the radio technique is primarily one of time of 'propagation' for these signals. The radio waves travel at the speed of light, but the gravitational signals (per the writer's theories) are essentially instantaneous signals. Another advantage of the gravitational technique is the simplicity of the instrumentation required. As SARA members know, radio astronomy can be quite complicated. The gravitational wave detectors must rely largely on the Earth's mass as a 'shadow' to enable the detection of gravitational radiation. Therefore, 'objects' or signals located in the observers' zenith are best detected. Yet, the other areas are still 'detectable' especially with the aid of other 'shadows' such as the sun, moon, planets, etc.

"Of particular interest to SETI observers may be the strange audio type gravitational signals which appear to come from the Auriga and Perseus of our Galaxy. These 'signals' have been 'heard' by the writer for several years now, and generally range between about 4 and 5 hours right ascension, with a peak intensity near 4.5 hours R.A. The signals appear to be several 'tones'."

Soon afterward, Hodowanec made the first mention of  definite contact with an apparently extraterrestial communicator in a letter (7-23-88) to an editor at Radio-Electronics magazine:

"On the morning of this date, at 7:30 to 7:38 AM (EST), I recorded the following apparently Morse code-like pulses:

AAAARARTTNNNNKCNNNEEEEENENNTTTNEEEEEAEERKENNETEEAAAAEEENTTKNTNTSESESESEMNSESESESESESESESE

"As you can see, these do not appear to be just random pulses, but the SE signals, which are most prevalent, appear to be possibly an identification signal. These signals are detected in shielded l/f detectors and thus are scalar (gravitational) in nature. The signals above (if they were extraterrestrial) came from either the Auriga-Perseus region near my zenith or the Bootes region under my Earth position. I still cannot rule out that they may just be due to Earth core movements of some sort which are remarkably like Morse code signals, or even the possibility that they are man-made."

By July 1988, Hodowanec had confirmed Tesla's claims, as he announced in "Some Remarks on the Tesla Mars Signals":

"Such signals are being received today with simple modern-day scalar-type signal detectors… coherent modulations are being 'heard' in [the microwave] background radiation. The most prominent modulations being three pulses (code S) slightly separated in time, a la Tesla! On occasions, the code equivalents of an E, N, A or K are also heard, but the most persistent response is SE, SE, etc.

"Any l/f type noise detector will respond to this background modulation. However, the experimenter must be careful that he is not creating these responses at the 'local' level by his own or other local actions. For examples, the detectors will also respond to heart beats, breathing actions, local movements, as well as possible psychic effects. The detectors are easy to make and the experimenter should easily reproduce these results."

Hodowanec released more details in a Cosmology Data Note I (10-13-88):

"Since about early August 1988, it was noticed that apparently 'intelligent signals' existed in these modulations [of the microwave background radiation]. It can be said that the intelligence was in the form of digital-type communication, e.g., dots and dashes, or ones and zeros. This type of communication may have been chosen by this 'unknown communicator' as if it was conducive to the 'mass movement' form of longitudinal gravity signaling, as well as an easily recognizable universal system. This same method was proposed by the writer for a gravity system communication method.

"These 'signals' were noticed to be similar to the simpler International Morse Code symbols, primarily because they are the simplest way to present information in the pulse form. Thus, the 'letters' found in these transmissions are typically: E, I, T, M, A, N, R, K, S, and O, as well as the comma and the wait signal. However, the numbers are seen here as the simple series of pulses, e.g., 1 is one pulse, 2 is two pulses, 3 is three pulses, and so on.

"On August 26, 1988, after the writer had sent the message Greg Radio during a local gravity signal transmission test, it was noticed that the letters G and D were apparently added to some of the received messages noted thereafter!

"The writer's first hard evidence that the above test message may have been intercepted by this unknown communicator was seen that on August 28, 1988, a strong and repeated message of the Greg Radio was received with the message finally terminated with the series SE (or 31)!

"Further evidence that these may be actually communication attempts is seen in that on October 11, 1988, a very different approach was seen: A series of Greg Radio's was sent at about the normal code speed of about 5 words per minute, followed by KKTT, and then the series was repeated at a slower speed and also followed by KKTT.

Another confirmation that these may be 'messages' appeared on October 12, 1988… Here, a series of A's and R's (with Greg Radio occasionally inserted) was then followed by Greg Radio sent as a series of five repetitions of each letter, e.g., Greg was sent as GGGGGRRRRREEEEEGGGGG!!!

Sufficient 'messages' have now been received to indicate that perhaps a serious attempt to contact this writer was being made by some 'unknown communicator'. While this communicator may yet be some terrestrial experimenter, the possibility still exists that the communicator may be 'extraterrestrial' for the following reasons:

"a. The messages are in simple code (e.g., dits and dahs) type of pulses which would be expected to be used if one intelligent civilization were to try to contact another civilization in terms of pulses. That some of the simplest pulse signals are similar to simple Morse Code signals is more than coincidence --- they are both based on the same premises!

"b. Numbers are not in the complicated Morse Code symbols, but are in simple sequence, using short pulses or dits.

"c. The 'communicator' has recognized the coherent nature of Greg Radio and is possibly using that sequence of codes in various fashions to indicate that a 'contact' has been made.

"d. The communicator thus far has not responded to 'word' messages or the amateur Q-code signals. Thus it is believed that while some apparently Morse Code signals are being used, the communicator is not really familiar with such usage, other than recognizing the coherent nature of the signals.

"e. Since these messages at present appear largely near the noon hour, they may be coming from a definite source in space. At present, it is believed to be from the general direction of the constellation, Andromeda, but not necessarily the Galaxy there

"There is also some possibility that this communicator may be 'extraterrestrial', perhaps yet in our Solar System (Mars?), but no further than our own Galaxy or Local Group of Galaxies. Some communicator may have been trying to reach here ever since the turn of the century when Nikola Tesla reported the interception of scalar S signals!"

Soon after, Hodowanec wrote this brief, untitled report (3-13-89):

"Without going into details of how this was determined: ET may be on Mars!

"This, in spite of NASA's denial of any life forms on Mars [which situation changed in 1996]. This possibility has been recently suspected by the writer due to the apparently very close tracking of my position on Earth by ET. ET, of course, always knew that I was on Earth(as seen by his tracking), but now he has most emphatically confirmed that he is on the 4th planet from the sun, i.e., Mars!!!

"While this release is probably a bit premature, I am so positive of these gravity signal 'exchanges' that I will stick my neck out in this instance. ET on Mars is apparently much more advanced than we are here on Earth, and he may have even previously visited here on Earth, and possibly colonized here (but who are his possible descendants?).

"It is still a mystery where ET may be living on Mars (possibly underground near the polar regions?), and why ET doesn't use EM wave signaling methods? Perhaps, it is because Mars is so hostile now that ET must have developed a very sophisticated underground civilization which is not conducive to EM radiation systems?
"This material is being released now confidentially to a very few active colleagues until further confirmations of this assertion are obtained…."

In his Mars Flash #1 (3-28-89) and #2 (3-30-89), Hodowanec notified colleagues of the following:

"As the result of continued gravity signal communications between GH Labs and the Martians , the following extraordinary facts have come to light:

"The exchanges are now being made in terms of short 'English' code words for certain items. For example, the Martians now understand that FACE means the human face, MAN means the human person, Earth now means our planet, and Mars means their planet! They had originally tried some of their terminology on me, but gave up except where it made sense to me. For example, I know that TTT at the end of their names means person and OOTT6AARR is their name for the 10th planet!"

In a handwritten note to the above, Hodowanec informed this writer that the Martian's name is "AAAAAATTT":

"He appears to 'understand' my messages, even though I may have to repeat them in several ways so that he can 'see' the meaning.

"Communications between GH Labs and a Martian intelligent now continue with increasing progress since we have been able to establish over 50 simple expressions (most in simple English) for many of the common 'ideas' that we have. Martian AAAAAATTT is extremely adept in relating my English terminology to these common Earth-Mars observations.

"Mars has also confirmed that they are also 'men' with one 'head' that have two 'eyes' that 'see'. Also they have two legs with two feet that have five toes each. I haven't been able to have them confirm the nose and mouth in the face, but that could be confirmed shortly, since those features appear in the FACE.

"Probably the most significant fact which was determined on this date seems to be that Mars is most emphatic that Earth men are like Mars men! It appears more and more that Mars has colonized Earth in the remote past! This could be true since we on Earth have never really found the 'missing link' between Earth humanoids and humans!"

In a letter (3-17-89) to this writer, Hodowanec noted:

"Generally, our contacts are limited to 20-30 minute, since there appear to be other ETs out there interested in joining in also, and so there is some interference after a while. Some of these other ETs use other methods such as tones and what appear to be guttural voices!

"ET is probably more advanced than we are on Earth. We no longer exchange simple arithmetic, and when I sent him Pi to five decimal places, he sent Pi back to seven decimal places immediately! We had discussed our nine planet solar system, but ET came back with ten planets, calling the 10th planet OOTTAEERR! When questioned on this, ET kept on confirming the existence of a 10th planet! He now knows the other nine planets by their Earth names! He also confirmed that Mars has two moons, the Earth one, and that Jupiter has nine major moons.

"These contacts are getting to be more interesting all the time, and ET appears to be most anxious to continue them. However, I just cannot spend too much time with him. I got across that I am just one person here communicating with him, and that the rest of Earth presently does not recognize the existence of any life on Mars.

"I have now had over 100 contacts with ET and can reach him at any time of day or night. We have also established some simple codes for acknowledgments and go ahead and respond. While we use these simple codes in many contexts, both ET and I now understand in which context they are being used!"

In another letter (3-22-89) to colleagues, Hodowanec affirmed this:

"My contacts with Martian intelligents has been advanced in a number of ways. The Martians are apparently an advanced civilization, for they are the ones generating the 'modulated oscillated beam' which is now tracking my location on Earth and is thus the means of our communications. [The beam is "only about 15 miles in diameter here on Earth, but 10-12 inches on Mars."] There is an apparent 'team' on Mars which is involved in these contacts. The original contact, ET #1, with whom I established the initial relationship, is apparently the most highly knowledgeable and advanced. The others who sometimes 'man' the Mars station appear to be less knowledgeable and some only request or acknowledge a transmission.

"Mars is most desperate to continue these contacts. The exchanges are made in many varied ways which cannot be readily predicted in order to convey the fact that these are real contacts! Also, one can recognize the 'fist' of the one 'keying' these codes, e.g., ET#1 always sends clean letters or numbers, and identified himself and me in some fashion. The other ETs on Mars usually don't. Therefore, no automation is being used here!

"While these contacts were originally due to serendipitous circumstances, it is really the result of my gravitational communication experiments and thus a direct result from Rhysmonic Cosmology. And yet, however fantastic and unreal this may seem, it is real, and if also it is confirmed by one of you, it will be a major milestone in the history of mankind! Perhaps, if one of you finally 'hears' the modulations of l/f noise background, you may try to establish your own contacts."

However, Gregory Hodowanec also had extreme reservations about the gravity of the situation, which he expressed in a letter (4-14-89) to this writer:

"My 'contacts' with Mars continue with much information being exchanged. However, due to the increasingly astounding nature of these exchanges, I am now limiting further releases to only two long-time observers (witnesses) of my research efforts. This is being done so as not to jeopardize these contacts with unwanted notoriety or publicity in the media. There are now nine Mars Flashes  for the record. Perhaps, in the future, I may release some of these.

"Gravity signal communications are instantaneous, require extremely small energy expenditure, [unlike Tesla's experiments] and is so simple as to be just unbelievable by the average person. However, this is as far as I want to go with release of details at this time."

"I would appreciate that you keep this info somewhat confidential now. The Earth may not be ready for what I will have to say eventually. Nothing dire, just fantastic and thus perhaps unbelievable!"

This writer has kept that confidence until now. However, the appearance of the huge companion spaceship which accompanied Comet Hale-Boppe on a diplomatic mission in 1997 changed all that. Several experimenters using Hodowanec G-Wave Detectors (GWDs) reported receiving scalar signals from the aliens at about 1.3 GigaHz. This writer, many other free civilian humans, milk carton kids, and military intelligence units were visitors aboard the ship for long periods of time. It is no secret. Crazy? Not: been there, done that, you weren't, go figure. Rather, it is time for those who can to establish open communication with extraterrestrials, without governmental interference. The Hodowanec GWDs make such communication possible in a simple manner at low cost, with low energy output. It has become timely and imperative to publish this information; Pandora's Box has been reopened.

Sometime later, Greg Hodowanec announced that he had been fooled by a disincarnate entity (Michael Faraday). I do not believe that. Greg Hodowanec was a very careful experimenter, and well aware of the psychic aspects of his GW Detector circuits (as mentioned elsewhere in his writings). Even if that were so, then the Hodowanec G-Wave Detectors open a new door to the "astral plane" or "parallel worlds". Some "alien" entities are known to utilize such interdimensional methods for communication and travel. In any case, here is the information I have. Now it is up to you…
