hanso and his scientist found a time rift. they found that as in space they could run test and get results here on this islande. sponsorde by many companys they began testing of various projects.the rift is an anomily that reacures spuraticly. once tthey figure the timeline of the rift, they begin recruting scientist,workers,and such. certain times they can come and go, get info and get with there sponsers. also randomly they get food drops when the window of time is open. during an experiment we believe THE INCIEDENT happend [enter smokie] they cant contain him so little by little they have to abort the dharma project. desmon sails into this rift and trys to leave but cant. he doesnt have the time line to get back when he tries the rift is always closed so he goes in circles. the same with the black rock ship got in on the rift couldnt get out. now russo's expidition,we realy dont know if they were sent there but there they end up thanks to the rift. the baloonast,adam and eve in the cave, all this can suport my theroy. so last but not least enters flight 815 BOOM!!!!!!! right into the rift. they build a raft but once again the rift is closed so they get no where. that can explaine why no one can find them. seems like that would be a hard place to find. somewhere OUT OF TIME!!!!
