In response to the threats during the Cold War, the CIA took cautious first steps to determine whether the claims of psychics could be verified under laboratory conditions, and to see if the obvious intelligence value could be realized. Thus began a program now known as Star Gate—the largest funded research program in the history of psi research. Supported mainly by the DIA and USAMRDC, this formerly classified, $20M program proved successful enough to outlive the Cold War and beyond (1972–1995). The Archives include all available documents generated by SRI International and Science Applications International Corporation and the activity provided by Government officials. Remote viewing (RV) is an atypical ability that allows some individuals to gain non-inferential information that is blocked from the usual sensory systems by shielding, distance and/or time. During the final decade of Star Gate, the emphasis shifted to a support role of a Government in-house psychic spying unit at Ft. Meade, MD, and to engage a number of full-time scientists to investigate the physical, and biological properties of RV, which proved successful. Results included how to identify the RV–gifted, what constitutes an RV target, some correlations with parts of the nervous system and an indication of a potential 6th sense. This volume includes numerous examples as well as operational simulations.
