Description: These extremely rare dicyanin-a glass coated goggles are authentic military/industrial goggles from the Soviet Union. The lenses are coated with dicyanin-a which is a rare blue dye originally used for infrared sensitization of photographic plates (source: SAO/ NASA). It was originally patented by Walter John Kilner to be used for astronomy as it allows the user to see a wider range of ultraviolet light that’s normally invisible to the naked eye. However while studying dicyanin, Walter Kilner noticed that humans, animals and plants emitted a glowing outline around their figure leading him to write a book named “The Human Atmosphere” which is where he describes the ability to see an aura that emanates from people, plants or animals. An aura is basically an energy field that surrounds all living beings, reportedly. Glasses such as these are able to train the eyes to view auras. During WWII and the Vietnam War the military began buying and using dicyanin glasses as experimental early night vision for machine gunners and copilots however soldiers reported seeing paranormal things and people that weren’t there. The glasses were quickly pulled from service and companies that produced dicyanin stopped producing it. Because of this these glasses are extremely rare and hard to find. A lot of professional ghost hunters buy all of the remaining glasses in the world so this was truly a rare find. These glasses are in fact authentic dicyanin glasses and are coated with blue dicyanin-a. This is truly a rare item and impossible to find today because production of the dye is uncommon.
