The war against cold fusion

Each episode of Phenomenon: The Lost Archives offers an in-depth exploration of an event that defies explication, or examines the untold secrets behind the stories you thought you knew. Hosted by Dean Stockwell, each tape investigates the facts behind the legends. In Phenomenon: The Lost Archives -- Heavywatergate, the War Against Cold Fusion, viewers investigate the idea of cold fusion. If viable, cold fusion offers the possibility of limitless cheap energy. Some have suggested that the quashing of cold fusion projects in the late '80s was due to certain agencies not wishing to undermine the position of U.S. energy corporations.

Governments, multinational corporations and religious organizations have secretly wielded tremendous power by holding back critical data or spreading misinformation to further their own aims. Phenomenon: The Lost Archives exposes the almost inconceivable stories of deceit, conspiracy, sanctioned piracy and scientific knowledge hidden from the world for far too long! Episodes: "Up For Sale"--In 1998, the Russian Federation launches the first stage of space station Freedom with billions of American dollars to secure Russia's participation in the space station partnership. Described as a foreign aid project, the principal purpose of the program may be to abate the mass exodus of Russian rocket scientists to unfriendly nations interested in developing weapons of mass destruction. "Heavy-Watergate: The War Against Cold Fusion"--In 1989, there is an announcement that rocks the world of science: heavy water, readily available in the ocean, is used in experiments that yield enormous amounts of heat energy. Named "Cold Fusion," this purported breakthrough is challenged by a powerful group of scientists who are working on government funded hot fusion research. Their unprecedented smear campaign against the entire field of cold fusion science questions whether their discovery was too good to be true or the discovery of the millennium. Hosted by Dean Stockwell.

The so-called "Powers that Be" have quite often maintained a stranglehold on information which they do not believe should be available to the general public. These corporate, religious, or governmental organizations have their own best interests in mind, and use their considerable power to maintain the status quo. This series of investigations reveals some of the hidden secrets. "Up for Sale" - When the International Space Station was first considered, it was intended as a cooperative project amongst a number of participating nations. However, the United States heavily funded the Russian Federations participation, ostensibly as a foreign aid project but it is now coming to light that perhaps the funding was intended to keep Russian scientists from finding paychecks in unfriendly nations as weapons developers. "Heavywatergate: The War Against Cold Fusion" - The viability of cheap energy, particularly free energy controlled by the individual, has long been a matter of debate. So when the possibility of unlimited energy was hinted at in 1989 with a cold fusion experiment, it was immediately squashed. Is it possible that these scientists were at the center of a smear campaign by those whose interests would be threatened by the discovery?
