Princeton Engineering Anomalies Research (PEAR)
Princeton Engineering Anomalies Research (PEAR) was a program at Princeton University that studied whether human consciousness could influence physical systems, such as random number generators or other devices, in ways that seemed to defy conventional science. They explored phenomena like mind-matter interactions through experiments involving volunteers attempting to affect outcomes. While their findings were debated and not widely accepted by the scientific community, PEAR aimed to understand the potential connections between consciousness and the physical world, suggesting possible avenues for understanding unexplained influences beyond traditional scientific explanations.
