1 is less than 99
What if I told you that one particular man had a unique gift to see beyond the light spectrum that you and I view every day? To clarify, you and I only see a tiny slice of light. The color range is deep violet to red (about 380–750 nanometers). In other words, we can view just a speck of the whole electromagnetic spectrum (think on the order of a few-thousandths of a percent, like ~0.001%). See my blog for a complete idea of how much we are missing through sight.
So, why am I telling you that you are utterly devoid of seeing 99.999% (Think of it as seeing 1 out of 100,000 slices of an image) of everything available to you? Because I want you to consider that we can see things through our minds much better than we can with our eyes. If you're curious as to who else understands this insight, read on.
To begin, Project STARGATE was (or still is) a real U.S. intelligence effort exploring "remote viewing" during the Cold War, evolving through codenames like SCANATE, GRILL FLAME, CENTER LANE, SUN STREAK, and finally
STARGATE; moreover, the program's materials are now widely accessible in the CIA's FOIA reading room, which has fueled both scholarly debates and pop-culture fascination. CIA+1
H.A.L.
Subsequent, early research at Stanford Research Institute (SRI) with Hal Puthoff, Russell Targ, and subjects such as Ingo Swann attempted to systematize remote viewing—tasking a viewer with minimal cues and judging transcripts against concealed targets.
Consequently, the government supported lab work, training protocols, and even analytic scoring methods (e.g., fuzzy-set analysis) to squeeze signal from noise. CIA+2CIA+2
REAL TIME
Furthermore, names that recur in the record include Ingo Swann, Pat Price, Joe McMoneagle, and Army INSCOM leadership such as Skip Atwater. Additionally, declassified documents show repeated taskings and the use of a remote viewing (RV) product, although the unit remained small and some dispute its operational claims. WikipediaCIA
However, the 1995 CIA-commissioned evaluation by the American Institutes for Research paired two heavyweight assessments: statistician Jessica Utts argued that lab effects exceeded chance, while psychologist Ray Hyman emphasized methodological flaws and poor operational value. As a result, the CIA allegedly ended the program, stating it did not provide actionable, decision-grade intelligence. Intelligence Resource ProgramCIAUC Irvine, ICS
Out of sight
Additionally, the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) archive includes training memos, evaluation methods, and even exotic sessions (for example, a 1984 transcript in which a viewer describes "Mars… a million years B.C."), (my blog here), which illustrates both the breadth of experimentation and why critics and proponents still talk past each other.

To be clear, beyond SRI lab work, Ingo Swann later published Penetration and alleged that covert handlers tasked him to view the Moon's far side, where he saw artificial structures and non-human activity. Moreover, he recounted stranger-than-fiction episodes with a handler called "Mr. Axelrod," which admirers treat as testimony and skeptics treat as storytelling. Internet Archivespr.ac.uk
Consequently, these lunar claims sit mostly outside the declassified STARGATE ops logs, even as they circulate widely in podcasts, reviews, and reprints; meanwhile, they remain culturally magnetic precisely because they brush the boundary between consciousness research and high strangeness.
Oh, Donna
Likewise, I wrote a story about Donna Hare (my detailed blog) and her encounter with a NASA photo technician in early-1970s Houston. She said she spotted disk-shaped anomalies in Apollo imagery, heard colleagues admit that they'd seen similar oddities or structures on the Moon. Subsequently, after reporting their findings, they were told the information was classified and covered by an NDA.
Years later, disturbed by the secrecy, Donna went public, speaking at conferences, working with Dr. Steven Greer's (my detailed blog) Disclosure Project, and testifying at the National Press Club in 2001, while also describing subtle intimidation aimed at keeping witnesses quiet. She passed in 2021, but her advocacy framed the issue as a matter of public transparency about what images have been erased from our Moon and space photos.

Consequently, Hare's account echoes the same era and themes as Ingo Swann's: anomalous space observations, compartmentalization, and handlers who controlled what could be revealed. While her testimony isn't definitive proof, it does show that multiple insiders from the period reported unusually consistent patterns, suggesting Swann may have been circling something meaningful, even if the establishment dismissed it.
Moreover, if you enjoy a sanctioned-but-weird comparator, the CIA-released "Mars Exploration—May 22, 1984" transcript that shows a viewer describing ancient structures and tall beings, which demonstrates how tasking sometimes wandered into nonstandard targets. Additionally, the CIA records state the unnamed viewer (guided by a monitor) could see beyond the sealed envelope labeled "The planet Mars.
A Face in the Crowd
Further, the viewer noted a Time of interest approximately 1 million years B.C."—to describe specific Mars coordinates; moreover, as the monitor stepped through sites beginning with 40.89°N, 9.55°W, the viewer reported pyramid-like structures, an obelisk-style "marker," and very tall, thin beings sheltering and even hibernating as a planet-wide environmental crisis unfolded.
Consequently, whatever one believes about remote viewing, this vivid "ancient Mars" narrative sits inside the official STARGATE FOIA collection, complete with date/time stamps and the session method, which readers can examine directly.

So, was Project STARGATE real? Yes, it was a real, government-funded set of programs under multiple codenames, culminating in STARGATE and declassified in 1995. Also, accessible summaries and document portals (FAS and the CIA Reading Room) make the record easy to check. Intelligence Resource ProgramCIA
Notably, SRI researchers Hal Puthoff and Russell Targ helped frame protocols, while viewers like Ingo Swann, Pat Price, and Joe McMoneagle became synonymous with the work. Furthermore, mainstream writers and the curious consumer continue to recap this history for general audiences. Why? Because if we can only see less than one percent of what is in front of us, that leaves an awful lot unseen.
Right before your eyes
Ultimately, the declassified record proves one thing: the government funded remote-viewing research and associated operations for decades. Meanwhile, the government states that the results are operationally inadequate for their use. Nevertheless, Ingo's and other viewers' accounts and documents, such as the "Mars" session, keep the door open to a bigger conversation about the human mind, information, and the holographic feel of reality we all sense.
