This document explores the concept of remote viewing, highlighting its historical context, particularly its interest from the government for military applications. It discusses notable figures such as Ingo Swann, who demonstrated remote viewing abilities, including accurately predicting a ring around Jupiter before scientific confirmation. Additionally, studies indicated that remote viewing skills can be exhibited by average individuals, suggesting that desire and intensity may enhance the experience.

Viewing Experiences
A great many remote viewing studies occurred in the past. One reason is the government's interest
in its use as a defense or weapon in wartime. Some say Swann coined the phrase remote viewing,
others contribute that to Russell Targ and Harold Puthoff, but Swann brought it to the forefront of
scientific examination, regardless of who gave it the name.
Swann had written Puthoff about another experiment and to test him, Targ arranged a meeting
above a well-hidden and shielded magnetometer. Not only did Swann disturb the functioning of the
meter, he also went on to describe and draw the inner workings of the machine. This was long
before any published works displayed its construction.
Puthoff wrote about Swann in an informal draft and suddenly within a few weeks, the CIA came
knocking on his door. It seemed that there might be a use for this type of ability and the government
wanted to test it.
Some of the study teams included Targ, Tart and Puthoff and, of course, Swann. Swann at one time
said he could remotely view Jupiter. The experiment took place after the launching of Pioneer 10 but
still too early for the spacecraft to reach Jupiter. Swan saw a ring around the planet and immediately
received scoffing remarks from the scientific community. Two years later, the results from the
spacecraft revealed a ring around Jupiter.

2. While the government sponsored many studies in an effort to "keep up with the Soviet Union,"
including Stargate, other studies continued outside the auspices of the government. One double
blind study used average people. Some of these were right brained, artistic people often thought to
be more psychic and others were as left brained and logical as you could get. Amazingly, it made no
difference. In the study, the subjects were to draw a picture of the location of an object. The
researchers in the room had no idea where their colleague had gone or where he hid the object. In
90 percent of the cases, the drawing matched the location. Even more incredible, it often showed
what the location looked like from an aerial view.
This last study showed that anyone is capable of remote viewing. Some may be better than others
are, however. In addition, sometimes intensity of desire increases the picture the viewer sees. One
teen wanted to go to a ballgame on the fan bus, but her parents grounded her due to her bad
behavior the week earlier. After pouting, stomping and making life miserable for everyone, she
finally went to bed. While asleep, she dreamt a vivid dream of being on the bus on the way home.
She heard the score of the game, noted who sat together and even heard people talking about her,
right in front of her.
The dream was so vivid; she didn't forget a single detail. The first thing she found was that the score
she heard was correct. Next, she confirmed that people sat together and even confronted the person
that made a discouraging remark about her. Of course, that person immediately asked if the person
he said it to had told her, confirming she heard the remark. These cases are not unusual and prove
that desire also plays a role in remote viewing.
