Proposed Downgrading of Classified Documents for Cognitive Sciences Laboratory, Volume 2 of 2
This CIA Reading Room document, marked 'Volume 2 of 2' and dated June 9, 1994, is a proposal to downgrade the classification of numerous documents associated with the Cognitive Sciences Laboratory. It was submitted by Edwin C. May, Ph.D., of Science Applications International Corporation (SAIC) in Menlo Park, California. The bulk of the file is a tabular index of research reports originated by SRI International, identified by project number, covering topics such as remote viewing experiments, geophysical effects studies, coordinate remote viewing (CRV) technology, computer-assisted search, precognition, photon-production replication experiments, bacterial mutation study, enhanced human performance investigations, neurophysiological correlates to remote viewing, and PSI communications experiments. These materials are part of the U.S. government's psychic research effort commonly known as the STAR GATE program. The document was approved for release on 2000/08/08. Listed report dates include studies from 1984.
Description
A June 1994 document submitted by Edwin C. May of Science Applications International Corporation's Cognitive Sciences Laboratory, listing classified SRI International remote viewing and psychoenergetics research reports proposed for declassification/downgrading. Part of the CIA STAR GATE program records.
Claims
Numerous SRI-originated classified reports on remote viewing and psychoenergetics were proposed for classification downgrading.
90%A range of these classified psychic research documents were proposed for downgrading/declassification in 1994.
90%SRI International conducted numerous classified studies on remote viewing, precognition, and psychoenergetics under specific project numbers.
85%Government-funded research explored possible photon production during remote viewing tasks and anomalistic behavior of photon detection systems.
60%Research programs investigated bacterial mutation, enhanced human performance, and neurophysiological correlates to remote viewing.
60%Research explored possible photon production and anomalous photon-detection-system behavior during remote viewing tasks.
