The Stargate Project

The Stargate Project was a U.S. government program from the 1970s to the 1990s that researched whether individuals could use extrasensory perception (ESP) or "remote viewing" to gather intelligence or locate missing persons and objects. Funded by agencies like the CIA and the Defense Intelligence Agency, it aimed to explore potential military applications of psychic phenomena. Despite some intriguing claims, scientific evaluations found the results unreliable and inconclusive, leading to the program's termination in the mid-1990s. The Stargate Project remains a notable example of government experiments into unconventional methods during the Cold War era.
