(C/NF) The second part of the research program sought to improve remote-viewing data by examining specific aspects of the remote-viewing process. Some of the areas examined were (1) selection of the best can- didates for training, (2) experimentation with various forms of targeting (coordinates, abstract, beacon), (3) the use of audio amalysis, and (4) investigation into the effects of geophysical variableai such as geomagnetic and ELF activity. The results of these investigations: and other aspects of the phenomenon are summarized in year-end project reports for FY¥s 1981, 1982, and 1983. (S/NF) Phase II consists of the authentication and verification of the data derived by remote viewing. After three years researching remote viewing and its training, it was decided that an additional year would be taken to conduct a series of remote-viewing sessions with trainees and with controls. These data would show whether or not subjects could be trained to do remote viewing, and whether or not remote viewing could be applied in gathering useful information. If a strong positive relation- ship existed, the program would proceed to the next phase. (S/NF) In Phase IIL efforts, we would establish an in-house DoD remote- viewing capability, apply it to intelligence needs, and then evaluate the data over a two-year period. During Phase III, research would continue at a variety of laboratories in order to refine, explain, and improve the usability of psi phenomena. It is the intent of this program to establish and maintain an in-house DoD capability for remote viewing that would provide the intelligence analyst with yet one more sourde of information. It would be one more tool, not an end in itself. The contributions to this program would be continually evaluated in the same ‘manner as other sources of intelligence, and its continuance or abolishment would be based on its own merit. Its unique characteristic would be the ability to collect data from sources that are inaccessible to other data-céllection systems (see Figure 1). This would include describing the inside of buildings and underground installations, locating individuals, finding weapon systems, 2 SERS Approved For Release 2002/05/17 : CIA-RDP96-00788R001800210001-0 a
