Contact With Space: Oranur Second Report 1951-1956
Wilhelm Reich's final scientific publication documents six years of intensive research into Cosmic Orgone Engineering and the Oranur Experiment. This comprehensive report covers the period from 1951 to 1956, presenting Reich's findings on combating the DOR (Deadly Orgone) emergency through practical field applications.
Scientific Expedition and Field Research
The volume documents Reich's scientific expedition to southern Arizona during 1954-1955, where Cosmic Orgone Engineering techniques transformed desert land into prairie grass. The research introduces the "Spacegun," an advanced extension of the cloudbuster technology made possible through the discovery of ORUR. These field experiments provided tangible evidence of Life Energy metabolism and its effects on vegetation and desert environments.
Comprehensive Scientific Coverage
Contact With Space examines new energetic principles discovered during the Oranur Experiment across multiple scientific disciplines. The text addresses biophysics, Oranur medicine, astrophysics, meteorology, chemistry, pre-atomic chemistry, and space technology. Reich presents a natural scientific explanation of Life Energy metabolism, investigating primal vegetation development and desert formation processes.
Research Context and Historical Significance
Written during a period of intense opposition from commercial interests, this publication provides insight into the challenging social and physical conditions under which Reich conducted his research. The book conveys the scientific adventures that marked the beginning of what Reich termed the cosmic or "atomic" age, while documenting the methods employed by functional scientists in their investigative approach.
Published by Haverhill House Publishing
This paperback edition from Haverhill House Publishing preserves Reich's final scientific work, making this historically significant research accessible to readers interested in alternative energy theories, 1950s scientific exploration, and controversial scientific research. The volume includes Reich's observations on human reactions to these energetic phenomena and the broader implications for understanding natural processes.
The six-year research period covered in this second Oranur report represents the culmination of Reich's work in orgone energy research, cloudbuster technology, and cosmic engineering applications. The Arizona expedition findings and the development of advanced equipment like the Spacegun demonstrate the practical applications of theoretical principles developed throughout Reich's career.
