Marconi and the Italian Secret Space Program

A former U.S. Naval Intelligence operative, William Tompkins, shared his knowledge about the existence of an Italian secret space program.

He claims that U.S. Navy spies embedded in Nazi Germany’s top aerospace industries had learned about this Italian program, and briefed a covert Naval Intelligence group, including Tompkins, who was stationed at Naval Air Station, San Diego from 1942 to 1946.


According to documents released in the late 1990’s, Benito Mussolini came into the possession of a UFO on June 13, 1933, which had an unknown flying saucer design and origin. After extensive analysis, Italian researchers concluded the documents were authentic and confirmed the first UFO crash retrieval in recorded history – 14 years prior to the famed July 1947 Roswell Crash. One of the key Italian researchers involved in studying the documents is Alfredo Lissini.

Here is his description of the 1933 crash:

June 13, 1933. A circular craft resembling a pair of saucers joined at their outer rims crashes near the town of Maderno, in Lombardy, northern Italy. The object, made of thin, silvery-grey metal, is about fifty feet in diameter and less than seven feet thick…. No occupants in the object were found.

Regarding who headed the Italian space program, Tompkins confirmed that it was indeed Marconi, as stated in the flying saucer documents, which you can read Here.

Significantly, Marconi’s secret space program was completely separate to Mussolini’s more conventional advanced aerospace program being developed prior to the Second World War.

There have long been rumors of a civilian effort to build flying saucers in South America led by Marconi, whose death in 1937 was allegedly faked. According to independent archeology researcher, David Hatcher Childress, Marconi’s death was a cover for him moving to Venezuela to start a futuristic project away from the looming European war.

Ninety-eight scientists were said to have gone to South America where they built a city in an extinct volcanic crater in the southern jungles of Venezuela. In their secret city, financed by the great wealth they had created during their lives, they continued Marconi’s work on solar energy, cosmic energy, and anti-gravity. Working secretly and apart from the world’s nations, they built free-energy motors and ultimately discoid aircraft with a form of gyroscopic anti-gravity.

In addition, Tompkins provided further details about the secret Antarctica bases set up by Nazi Germany. The bases used slave labor recruited from a number of Nordic countries to solve their labor shortage as he explained.

The conclusion that emerges from Tompkins latest revelations is very significant. Not only did the two major Axis powers develop highly advanced flying saucer craft based on revolutionary antigravity technologies, but the civilian-led components of these programs were able to relocate their most advanced programs to remote locations.

In this interview extract, William Tompkins explains how the Nazis used slave labor in their large caverns in Antarctica.

Tompkins also explains how the U.S. Navy learned from spies embedded in Nazi Germany, that the Italians had also established a space program, which was under the leadership of Guigliemo Marconi in South America.
