DARPA called it “theoretical.” But the patents, labs, and missing files tell a different story.
They told us teleportation was impossible. That time travel was science fiction. That kids never vanished into classified military experiments. But what if that was a cover story?
In the 1970s, DARPA greenlit real research into exotic physics, quantum displacement, and “non-local entanglement.” Declassified documents speak of chrononauts. Patents reference teleportation devices. And one man — Andrew Basiago — claimed he was the proof. From Mars missions with Barack Obama to Gettysburg jump rooms, his story sounds insane... until you realize how much of it lines up with official records.
In this episode of Divergent Files, we don’t tell you what to believe. We reopen the case. Backed by real research, verified patents, black-budget documents, and years of psychological ops strategy — this is not just a conspiracy theory. It’s a forensic investigation into how truth is buried in noise.
Forget what they told you about time travel. The scariest part isn’t that it was fiction — it’s that it might have been real.
