Enhancing the Stargate Project: Creating a Superpowered Team
Since the 1950s, as people began to gain a basic understanding of "extrasensory perception," the CIA has invested significantly in research, spending over $20 million over 20 years to explore this mysterious domain of super abilities.
The Stargate Project
In recent years, with some documents being declassified by U.S. authorities, the public has gained a glimpse into research on "extrasensory perception." Among these declassified documents is a research program known as the "Stargate Project." The CIA has publicly released detailed information about this program, consisting of 73,000 pages, with over 17,000 pages still classified due to sensitive issues. These documents reveal the research conducted by U.S. intelligence agencies into the supernatural.
Even Richard Helms, the sixth CIA director known for pragmatic decision-making, had a positive stance towards this research program. He served as the deputy director of the initiative in 1963.
The Technical Services Division organized a specialized team to investigate whether telepathy and hypnosis could be utilized in covert operations. When "remote viewing" became part of the research agenda in 1972, the CIA showed particular interest in the experimental reports by parapsychologist Harold Puthoff at the Stanford Research Institute, subsequently allocating $50,000 for further study.

Two years later, the Stanford Research Institute obtained coordinates for a significant Soviet facility under construction, marking a pivotal moment in Kazakhstan. A test subject with "remote viewing" abilities used his skills to "see" certain objects, including buildings and large cranes, and learned that this large underground facility was intended for missile storage. This was later confirmed by satellite imagery, establishing the report's accuracy.
At the Fort Meade base in Maryland, another test subject "saw" a low, windowless building in China. Inside, he "saw" heavy metal equipment and pipes circulating hot air and detected a foul odor akin to a mix of natural gas and sulfur. During this process, he sensed a kind of "energy" and sketched the scenes, which later matched intelligence about a nuclear facility in China.
The former Soviet Union ran similar programs, and it's reported that the U.S. military hoped these psychics could use their abilities to disrupt enemy computer systems and data, incapacitating Soviet weapon systems. The specifics of these missions remain classified. The "Stargate Project" was employed by President Carter, who utilized their abilities to locate a downed aircraft. Participants entered a soundproof room, were blindfolded, and wore earplugs, ultimately reporting precise details and locations.
The identities of the participants in these programs are confidential due to national security concerns surrounding their abilities. These experiments represent just a small fraction of research conducted by the U.S. from 1971 to 1996, aiming primarily to verify various forms of "extrasensory perception," with "remote viewing" phenomena considered the most significant.
