## Resource

Adam and Connor discuss one of the strangest conspiracy theories of all-time. In 1943, the Navy conducted a strange experiment in a naval shipyard in Philadelphia, and the results became the subject of wild claims and speculation that have persisted ever since. Did a strange man named Carlos Allende really witness an entire ship disappear into thin air or is the mysterious Mr. Dudgeon telling the truth when he says there was nothing weird about it?
