Not advocacy. Not debunking. A straightforward account of what the evidence shows — based on the government's own declassified research.
Psionic Research is an independent archive documenting the science, history, and methodology of remote viewing — the anomalous cognitive ability studied by U.S. intelligence agencies from 1972 to 1995 under the classified programs known collectively as Project STARGATE.
The site exists because the primary source material is remarkable, underreported, and largely inaccessible to anyone who hasn't spent time in the CIA's CREST database or read the original Utts and Hyman review reports. This is an attempt to make that record legible.
"The existence of anomalous cognition has been established at a level of statistical significance that would be considered definitive in any other area of science." — Jessica Utts, UC Davis statistician, commissioned by the CIA, 1995
Every factual claim on this site is sourced to declassified government documents, peer-reviewed academic research, or first-hand accounts from program participants. Where the evidence is contested or ambiguous, that is noted explicitly.
We do not claim that remote viewing is fully understood, that every session was accurate, or that the science is settled. We claim that the evidence is sufficient to take seriously — and that the public record has not been well served by either credulous advocates or reflexive sceptics.
The articles here draw primarily from: the CIA CREST database (89,901 pages of declassified STARGATE documents), the 1995 American Institutes for Research independent review commissioned by Congress, the peer-reviewed Journal of Scientific Exploration, and recorded statements from program personnel including Hal Puthoff, Russell Targ, Ingo Swann, Joe McMoneagle, and Skip Atwater.
The declassified record establishes that remote viewing is trainable. The Fort Meade program produced functional viewers from military personnel with no prior history of anomalous experience, using a structured six-stage protocol developed by Ingo Swann.
Psionic Assist is an independent training application built on that same protocol. It uses AI scoring against a pool of blind targets to give trainees the objective feedback loop that is essential for developing and tracking CRV ability. It is the practical companion to the research documented here.
