In the 1930s, Royal Raymond Rife developed special microscopes he claimed he could visualize living microorganisms, including viruses too small to be seen with any other existing technology, via the color of auras emitted as they vibrated. He also claimed to have developed a machine that used radio waves to kill these organisms. While the use of radio waves to treat disease (a field called "radionics") has been debunked by scientists, it turns out that tiny organisms called retroviruses may actually play a role in causing some cases of ALS.
