INTRODUCTION

Brookhaven National Laboratory (BNL) is located in the quiet suburban community of Upton, New York. To the general public, BNL is the preeminent multidisciplinary research laboratory of the United States. It is the site for high profile television documentaries on neutrons, neutrinos, charged-particle and photonuclear reactions, and the latest developments in particle physics. In addition, Brookhaven National Laboratory Public Affairs office provide grade-school children and the general public guided tours of the laboratory. All this exposure should lead one to believe that at Brookhaven there is nothing to hide. However, beneath the photogenic labs and the carefully orchestrated images of white mocked clinical researchers with identification badgescarefully following security procedures, there is a maze of subbasement where the real research takes place: exploring hyperspace and time travel.

This is the story of how an 8-year-old-boy discovered what was really going on at Brookhaven. It is my own highly personal account of finding bits and pieces of a puzzle that have come to be known as "Project Rainbow" and reveals the drama of a military-industrial-collaboration so astounding that I was told by adults that dire consequences would ensue if I should ever reveal what I saw or heard. This became the greatest source of my emotional distress for the last 32 years until now. Because now, as an adult, I have found the courage and the evidence I did not possess as a frightened child when I was intrigued by the description of green gog and a disappearing naval ship. This is an eyewitness account of facts frozen in time and memory for 32 years that are now coming to light.
