Thomas Henry Moray (August 28, 1892 - May 18, 1974) was an inventor from Salt Lake City, Utah.
After hundreds of experiments designed to improve radio reception, Moray claimed to have discovered a source of energy transmission apparently available everywhere.
Using advanced ideas in solid state detectors, he developed a power source which he claimed to produce 50,000 watts.
By the early 1930s, dozens of people had reportedly witnessed demonstrations of this technology[citation needed].
In 1944 Moray was paid $25 a day by the rural electrification administration to perfect his system of drawing electrical energy out of the atmosphere.
