READ: Declassified CIA Records Detail “Project Stargate," Alien Outposts on Earth and Beyond
Between 1977 and 1995, the CIA embarked on a bold and secretive journey into the unknown, funding a series of experiments that pushed the boundaries of science, intelligence gathering, and even reality itself. Known collectively as Project Stargate, the initiative explored remote viewing—a controversial form of extrasensory perception said to allow individuals to "see" distant locations or events using only the power of their minds.
While the program was primarily intended for gathering military and domestic intelligence, its declassified files reveal a much stranger side. Some sessions veered into the realm of science fiction, with remote viewers describing extraterrestrial outposts on Earth and throughout the solar system.
One particularly provocative document, titled "Description of Personnel Associated 'ET' Bases", reads like something out of a Cold War-era sci-fi thriller. According to the record, remote viewers described alien installations not just on Earth, but also on distant worlds like Titan—the largest moon of Saturn.
“All personnel observed at this base on 20 November 1986 appeared to be no different than native Earthlings,” the viewer wrote about the Titan base.
The description paints a vivid scene: two male technicians seated at a control panel while a poised woman, described as attractive and wearing a pale green lab coat, stood behind them in a supervisory role. Strangely, there was nothing outwardly alien about them. They looked entirely human.
Closer to home, the document also referenced a base at or inside Mount Hayes, a remote peak in Alaska long associated with UFO folklore. The remote viewer claimed there were two types of entities connected with the site.
“The two entities located outside of the structure were accomplishing some sort of routine task—unable to make contact with them or gain information of any sort,” the viewer reported.
While the viewer was unable to establish communication, the implication was clear: something unusual was taking place beneath the Alaskan wilderness.
Another entry chronicled a site whose location was uncertain—possibly in South America or Africa. Here too, the viewer described two kinds of beings.
One was decidedly non-human, with a large, round-shaped head perched on a slender neck—almost robotic in appearance. No contact could be made.
The second being, however, was more approachable.
“His face was devoid of any hair, his complexion was very pale... features were very indistinct with the exception of a sharp, slender nose. This entity seemed friendly enough and appeared to be aware of my presence.”
While Project Stargate was officially shuttered in 1995 after being deemed unreliable by a CIA review, its archives continue to fascinate and perplex researchers, conspiracy theorists, and paranormal enthusiasts alike.
Despite the detailed and sometimes eerie descriptions, the fundamental problem remains: there is no physical evidence to verify any of these claims. The remote viewing data is anecdotal at best—impressions and visions without corroboration.
Yet, the fact that such accounts were considered worth documenting by a U.S. intelligence agency adds a layer of intrigue. Did the CIA simply cast a wide net in its quest for strategic advantage, or did it stumble upon something it couldn't explain?
You can explore the original declassified documents yourself through the CIA archives—but be warned: the rabbit hole runs deep.
