Project Stargate — CIA Psychic Espionage Program

Declassified

The CIA ran a $20 million program investigating "remote viewing" — using psychics for intelligence gathering — from 1978 to 1995.

Official Narrative

The government would never fund psychic research. That sounds like science fiction, not intelligence operations.

Declassified Record

Declassified in 1995. The CIA, DIA, and Army all funded research into remote viewing at Stanford Research Institute. Project names included Gondola Wish, Grill Flame, Center Lane, Sun Streak, and finally Stargate. Over 20 years of documented operations with congressional oversight.

Significance

The program's existence is verified fact. 89,000+ pages declassified. The debate is over whether the results were actionable intelligence or statistical noise — but the program itself, its funding, and its operational use are documented government record.
