It's not a new phenomenon. Heck, this story even has some of the same players: Hal Puthoff is mentioned in the article because he's still a part of the government research scene. (He's the crackpot who did remote viewing experiments for the CIA in the 70s. He helped promote the fradulent spoon-bending "psychic" Uri Geller.) He was involved in the AATIP, a pet project of Senator Harry Reid, and the source of the Navy UFO videos.
- ncmncm 6y agoThe CIA "remote viewing experiments" were part of a PSY-OPS against the American public, and, incidentally, anybody spying. If he was involved there, that ties it all together. I.e., there were not ever, actually, any such experiments, or any of the other obvious BS. There was, instead, an operation to convince people that there had been such experiments. The operation was a success: people do believe it, to this day. "Men Who Stare at Goats" is a terrifying book by Jon Ronson exploring the program. You have to read between the lines to pick up the full consequence. This stuff has all the hallmarks of such an operation. It is hard to imagine what point it could have. What we know that we don't know is what they are up to, or why. The patent language is spume blown off the top of the wave. The wave itself we have no information about. Talking about "intergalactic flight" is fundamentally the kookiest bit. What galaxy would you fly to, and why? There are a trillion solar systems a thousand times closer, in our own galaxy. Surely one or two of those would be of some interest? Or a planet, a trillion times closer than that?
