Wormhole Emitter

Picture showing the Tachyon field generator on the DeLorean

The tachyon field generator was a part of the DeLorean time machine that was positioned on the roof of the car. It was involved in creating the field necessary to open a wormhole for temporal displacement.

Behind the scenes[]

  • This part was named by Bob Gale (as mentioned by the Time Machine Restoration team on the back of this card from the TMR Trading Cards ). It had previously been called the "wormhole emitter" by fans before Gale gave a list of the parts on the DeLorean.
  • Either way, "Wormhole Emitter" is still the preferred pronunciation by most fans.
