Remote viewing is the ability of someone to describe the characteristics of a remote geographical location regardless their present location.

For example, a professionally trained remote viewer by the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) and academics at the Stanford Research Institute (SRI), where this type of activity took place for more than 25 years, would successfully and repeatedly be able to describe in-depth details of a distant location.

The viewer would only be given geographical coordinates and would be blind to all other aspects of the location. It worked, it was repeatable, and the distance to the target did not matter even if it wasn’t on planet Earth.

Concerned that a psychical (PSI) gap existed between U.S. and Soviet paranormal research efforts, the CIA sponsored discreet research into paranormal phenomena. The U.S. military and intelligence services were actively involved in paranormal research and operations involving remote viewing. Remote viewing, which produced specialized human intelligence support, served as part of overall military and government organizations’ intelligence collection efforts and most likely still does.

For example, in March 1979, a young Air Force enlisted woman named Rosemary Smith was handed a map of the entire continent of Africa. She was told only that sometime in the past few days a Soviet Tu-22 bomber outfitted as a spy plane had crashed somewhere on the continent.

The United States desperately wanted to recover the top secret Russian codes and equipment the Tu-22 carried. Using their remote viewing skills, she pinpointed the wreckage, even though it had been completely swallowed by the jungle canopy into which the jet had plunged nose first.

Dr. Hal Puthoff, one of the directors and co-founders of the program explained in a publication put out by the Journal of Scientific Exploration in 1995,

“To summarize, over the years, the back-and-forth criticism of protocols, refinement of methods, and successful replication of this type of remote viewing in independent laboratories has yielded considerable scientific evidence for the reality of the (remote viewing) phenomenon. Adding to the strength of these results was the discovery that a growing number of individuals could be found to demonstrate high-quality remote viewing, often to their own surprise...The development of this capability at SRI has evolved to the point where visiting CIA personnel with no previous exposure to such concepts have performed well under controlled laboratory conditions.”

A subject sometimes ridiculed by material scientists, it seems remote viewing is not only taken very seriously by government and military but is well documented and rigorously tested.
Saturns Rings

Prior to the flyby of Jupiter by Pioneer 10, a spacecraft launched into space in 1972 and the first to fly directly through the asteroid belt and make observations of Jupiter, a gentleman by the name of Ingo Swann was able to successfully describe and view a ring around Jupiter which scientists had no idea existed.

This took place precisely before the first-ever flyby of Jupiter by NASA’s Pioneer 10 spacecraft, which confirmed that the ring did actually exist.

Puthoff explains,

“To determine whether it was necessary to have a ‘beacon’ individual at the target site, Swann suggested carrying out an experiment to remote view the planet Jupiter before the upcoming NASA Pioneer 10 flyby. In that case, much to his chagrin (and ours) he found a ring around Jupiter, and wondered if per- haps he had remote viewed Saturn by mistake. Our colleagues in astronomy were quite unimpressed as well, until the flyby revealed that an unanticipated ring did in fact exist.”

Dr. Jessica Utts, a Professor Emeritus in the Department of Statistics at the University of California, Irvine further emphasizes the point I’m trying to make during an interview on the show Talking Points. She illustrates that these techniques are real and carry a great deal of validity and credibility,

“What convinced me was just the evidence, the accumulating evidence as I worked in this field and I got to see more and more of the evidence. I visited the laboratories, even beyond where I was working to see what they were doing and I could see that they had really tight controls… and so I got convinced by the good science that I saw being done. And in fact I will say as a statistician I’ve consulted in a lot of different areas of science; the methodology and the controls on these experiments are much tighter than any other area of science where I’ve worked.”

Extraterrestrials: A Common Theme Among Professional Remote Viewers

Despite the fact that the remote viewing program was officially declassified in 1995, it appears that this probably wasn’t true given the fact that many from within the program have ‘blown the whistle’ so to speak.

A common theme among some of the most successful viewers within the program is the idea that they were tasked with gathering information on ‘others’ that may have been and are visiting our planet.

Ingo Swann (mentioned above), who has often been described as the best in the business, published his experiences within the intelligence community. Some of these experiences were written about in his book Penetration.

One day, this man (Axelrod) entered the secured facility at Stanford, which was not an easy thing to do. He obviously had access and the security clearance to do so. You have to remember, at the time this was happening it was a very classified and sensitive U.S. government project. He found Swann and persuaded him to leave with him.

Axelrod was accompanied by two twins who were very tall and mysterious. They dressed in the typical ‘cloak and dagger’ intelligence agency outfit. This is not uncommon, "men in black" type figures have often been described in this manner, and twins are not unusual.

Swann described them as “two blond haired, blue eyed, military looking assistants.”

The four of them flew to the west coast where Swann believed it to be the Alaskan wilderness, although he wasn’t certain and was told that it was best he did not know.

They were flying in a Learjet and found an area deep in the forest which seemed to be for their own use. They trekked for a very long time.

Richard Dolan, one of the world’s foremost authorities on the topic of UFOs, describes the incident well in his book, UFOs & The National Security State, The Cover -Up Exposed 1973-1991, so I will quote it from here on starting on page 154:

“They came to a small lake, and Axelrod said that as dawn approached, Swann would be able to see “it” through the pines. ‘We now wait and hope we are lucky. Say nothing, do not make any noise…they detect heat, noise, motion like mad.”

“Dawn arrived, and Swann saw a fog developing over the lake. This went on for five minutes, until the fog developed a luminous neon-blue color. Then, according to Swann, the color changed to an “angry purple” Axelrod and one of the twins each placed a hand firmly on Swann’s shoulders while “a network of purple, red, and yellow lightning bolts shot in all crazy directions through the ‘cloud.’ Swann said he would have jumped if the two had not held him down. He saw an object, almost transparent at first, but then “solidly visible over the lake.” It was triangular or diamond-shaped, growing in size.”

“Swann, in terror and amazement, heard a strong wind moving past, rustling the pine trees so much that some cones and branches fell on them.  The object then began to shoot out ‘ruby red laster-like beams’ as it continued to grow even more in size while maintaining its position on the lake. Very quietly, one of the twins said, ‘Shit! They’re enveloping the area. They’re going to spot us.”

“As Swann later recalled the event, some of the red laser beams from the object were ‘blasting’ pine trees, and he could hear low frequency pulsations. Axelrod whispered to Swann that the beams were probably honing in on deer or other forest creatures, as they sense biological body heat. ‘They’re sure to hone in on us,’ he told Swann. Just then, one of the twins literally lifted and dragged Swann away, but not before Swann noticed the water of the lake surging upward, ‘like a waterfall going upward, as if being sucked into the ‘machine.'”

“The four ran quickly and at great length, sustaining minor cuts and bruises. Eventually they stopped, breathing hard, and waited for more than thirty minutes, until one of the twins said all was clear.”

“Axelrod then asked Swann whether he could ‘sense’ anything form the craft.”

At this point, it’s quite obvious why Swann was taken from his position and role at Stanford Research Institute and into this situation. It seemed that these ‘government’ agents believed Swann could provide some detail about what was happening here and help the government with their research and interest in UFOs.

“Swann burst out laughing. ‘You’re completely nuts, Axel! I have to be calm, cool, collected and in good shape to sense anything.’ But Swann offered the insight that the craft was ‘a drone of some kind, unmanned, controlled from somewhere else.” Axelrod asked him what it was doing there, to which Swann replied ‘Well, for chrissakes! It was thirsty! Taking on water, obviously. Someone, somewhere needs water…so I suppose they just come and get it. You don’t need to be a psychic to see that.’ Essentially, said Swann, ‘they’ treated Earth as the neighbourhood supermarket.’

“Before taking Swann back, Axelrod said, ‘I shouldn’t tell you, but our mission will be disbanded shortly and the work picked up by others, because of strategic security reasons involved…’ ‘Others,’ said Swann, ‘who will not mix in with psychics, I take it.’ ‘You got it,’ Axelrod replied. Swann last saw Axelrod at the San Jose Airport, and never heard from him again.”

Lyn Buchanan, a retired US Army intelligence officer who was part of the remote viewing program at SRI stated that after the military he was asked by a branch of the government to do a paper, a study paper to compare and contrast ET psychic ability to human psychic ability. According to him, he found out that we can take the ET’s of all different kinds and species and put them into four main categories. We’ve got those who are more psychic than us and those that are less psychic than us. In each of those two categories we’ve got friendly to us and unfriendly to us. The unfriendly non-psychic ones tend to not come here. They don’t like us, they don’t want to be around us. The non-psychic friendly ones come here for trade. The psychic friendly ones actually want to help us develop our abilities and become stronger at it and see us thrive and access our full potential. And the unfriendly psychic ones want us wiped off the planet, period, no questions asked.”

He has also mentioned extraterrestrial bases that are on Earth, and he says there are approximately five. He mentions that they are all inside of mountains and that at some of these bases humans are working with these extraterrestrials in various ways.

I found this interesting because it correlates with yet another remote viewer by the name of Pat Price. Along with Swann, Price was said to be one of SRI’s most successful and skilled remote viewers.

Among the declassified literature, he is best known for his sketches of gantries and cranes which matched CIA intelligence photographs he had never seen. This was during the cold war.

A well-known story about Price comes from Captain Frederick H. Atwater, a retired US Army officer who was involved in these remote viewing experiments. I have confirmed the validity of this story through my conversations with Paul H. Smith, Major, US Army, ret. It is also well documented by various researchers in the field.

The story is that Price had remotely viewed four extraterrestrial bases on Earth, one of which was located under Mount Ziel, which lies approximately 80 miles west-northwest of Pine Gap. The other bases were said to be under Mount Perdido in the Pyrenees, Mount Inyangani in Zimbabwe and under Mount Hayes in Alaska. He described the occupants as ‘looking like homo sapiens, except for the lungs, heart, blood and eyes.’

What’s also interesting is that I’ve come across a declassified document that shows the CIA conducted remote viewing sessions to peer into a possible “galactic federation” headquarters located on Earth. You can view that here.

It’s interesting that this remote viewing session was conducted in 1988. First of all, where would the CIA get the idea to even look for some sort of galactic federation? It raises many questions.

What’s also interesting to note is that remote viewing isn’t and wasn’t only used in the present tense. In my conversations with Paul Smith, he described to me how he was tasked several times to look into the past to describe events that had already occurred, as well as events that may occur in the future. This is also clear via the declassified literature.

There are documents from the files showing that the CIA) tasked remote viewers to view Mars. In this particular case the remote viewer was given coordinates and was completely unaware of the location these coordinates represented. The viewer was also asked to view these coordinates on Mars as it was one million years ago. You can read more about that, and the controversial anomalies that have been found on Mars in an article I published previously, here.

Joseph Mcmoneagle was another highly successful viewer from the program. He also had experiences remote viewing an extraterrestrial presence.
To Summarize

The point I am making, again, is that there is a common theme among these remote viewers, and that’s an extraterrestrial presence.

The topic of UFOs/extraterrestrials has become quite popular, but we must be cautious of perspectives provided to us by governments who have a long track record of deceptions and lies.

I’ve written about this topic for many years. If you’re interested in reading some of my other recent articles, a few of them are posted below. You can also browse through the site.

I can tell you from personal experience; if you can meditate, you can remote view. The deeper, the better. I have met many of the principles in the original SRI remote viewing program; the co-directors, Hal Putoff and Russell Targ, the original master, Ingo Swann, two of the Montauk Project test subjects, Duncan Cameron and Glenn Pruitt (they did crossover work with SRI, and both 'jumped' to Mars), and Richard Dolan (we went to same University and had the same history professor/mentor.). There is a direct connection from Philadelphia Experiment to the Montauk Project to Site 4 of Area 51, and Remote Viewing. It's such a large subject. My compliments to the author for diving down a few rabbit holes and bringing it all together back on the surface.
