Project Stargate: The Declassified Files
Remote Viewing, Psychic Spies, and the U.S. Government’s Search for the ImpossibleBy Michael HarringtonLength2h 30m
About this audiobook
What persuaded the U.S. government to investigate psychic spying?
Project Stargate: The Declassified Files explores one of the strangest chapters in American intelligence history: the attempt to obtain information through remote viewing.
Drawing on declassified documents and published evaluations, Michael Harrington follows the research, operational ambitions, and disagreements behind the programs commonly associated with Stargate. Scientists designed experiments. Viewers recorded impressions and sketches. Intelligence users had to decide whether the reports offered anything they could act on.
Through a documentary-style narrative, the book examines:
• The Cold War concerns that helped drive government interest.
• The people and procedures behind remote viewing sessions.
• The difference between a striking resemblance and useful intelligence.
• The extraordinary Mars transcript and the questions it raises.
• The Gateway report and its relationship to the wider story.
• The competing assessments surrounding the 1995 evaluation.
• Why the program ended—and what the surviving record can tell us.
At the center is a difficult question: when an impression appears to match a hidden target, what exactly has been demonstrated?
This investigation brings the reader close to the documents, separating contemporary records from later recollections and reported successes from independently supported outcomes.
For readers drawn to espionage history, declassified government files, and the disputed boundaries of human perception, Project Stargate offers a compelling journey through an intelligence experiment unlike any other.
