Integratron is a hidden gem in the Yucca Valley desert of California. Although unremarkable from the outside, it offers an otherworldly experience that leaves visitors feeling spaced out.
Integratron, the only all-wood, acoustically perfect sound chamber in the United States, was constructed by NASA physicist George Van Tassel, who claimed to have received instructions from aliens to build it.
Located just outside the town of Landers in the Mojave Desert, there is a unique building that rises 38 feet high from a powerful vortex. It resembles a small observatory and blends Moses’ Tabernacle and the science of Nikola Tesla. This one-of-a-kind building is an intriguing sight to behold.
The dome is 55 feet in diameter and took 18 years to build. Its creator claims that it is situated where important geomagnetic forces intersect. The unique design of the building focuses on these forces, which amplifies the energy needed for restoring and healing living cells.
Integratron still lives up to its architect’s claim, offering visitors the experience of physical and spiritual healing.
With a reservation, you can take a sound bath — a 60-minute sonic healing session with a series of quartz crystal bowls played live in the Integratron’s highly resonant, multi-wave sound chamber. It is an experience that is said to leave those who try it refreshed and “buzzed.”
Giant Rock Landers
An associated attraction, but not visible from the Integratron, is “Giant Rock,” a seven-story high, freestanding boulder where Van Tassel lived for many years, ran a small restaurant and airport, and held UFO conventions for two decades to raise money for his Integration project.
In 1959, nearly 11,000 people attended one of his spacecraft conventions, and Van Tassel continued to work on the Integratron while writing several books on time travel and rejuvenation.
The Giant Rock area, which includes Crystal Hill and Van Tassel’s airstrip, is located about 10 minutes away from the dome by car. However, given that all the roads are sandy dirt, it is recommended that adventurers either have a four-wheel-drive vehicle or take an air-conditioned ride in a comfortable Suburban with a guided tour of the entire region.
