Explore the intriguing story of Project Stargate, a top-secret US government program launched during the Cold War to investigate the potential of psychic abilities for intelligence purposes. Delving into its roots in the intense geopolitical rivalry between the US and the Soviet Union, the episode uncovers how scientists, military personnel, and psychics collaborated to develop remote viewing—a purported ability to perceive distant locations using the mind. Key figures, notable experiments, and controversial outcomes are discussed, charting the program's journey from its inception at the Stanford Research Institute to its eventual cessation in 1995. Engage with the debate surrounding its legacy and its place in the history of intelligence.
