A Short Biography of Henry Moray |

Moray graduated from The Latter Day Saint's Business College. Moray studied electrical engineering through an international correspondence school course. He received a PhD in electrical engineering from the University of Uppsala. At the turn of the century, Moray developed a reported inexhaustible environmental energy source (by means of radiant energy).
In the 1920s, Thomas Henry Moray demonstrated a "radiant energy device" to many people who were unable to find a hidden power supply. Moray called his device a solid state detector (known as the "Moray Valve") along with a large antenna connected to a complex series of high voltage capacitors, transformers, and semiconductors. By supposedly stimulating the existing oscillations of radiant energy from space the device supposedly ran for several days producing 50 kilowatts of power. The demonstrations attracted newspapers and scientists from Bell Laboratories and from the Department of Agriculture but none could attest to how the device actually operated nor could evidence of fraud be found. The device was eventually destroyed by his assistant Felix Pridgt, whom apparently was angered that Moray would not sell his device to corporate interests. In the 1930s Moray developed advanced semiconductors and transistors.
Moray refused to sell his technology to corporate interests, fearing its misuse. Moray reported that he and his family had been threatened and shot at on several occasions and his lab ransacked to stop his research and public demonstrations. Moray, as Nikola Tesla before him, was unsuccessful in introducing his devices working on this principle. Some report that his secret was forgotten. Moray tried for several patents to no avail. Today T. Henry Moray's sons John and Richard have continued research to rediscover their father's inventions
