U.S. reveals clandestine extraterrestrial facilities.
In 2023, the UFO debate reignited, sending shockwaves through the nation during congressional hearings. Allegations of government cover-ups involving extraterrestrial life stirred controversy once more, as declassified CIA documents and testimonies resurfaced in the Daily Mail.
Stargate: A Scenarios of Imagination, Hysteria, or Inspiration? Undoubtedly Not Scientifically Based
The CIA's "Stargate" project served as the foundation for the hoopla, launched in the early ’70s to delve into the idea of "remote viewing" or "distant sight" - a technique that supposedly permits individuals to envision remote objects using the power of thought. The unconventional notions of "remote viewing" and telepathy have consistently intrigued the public, but the CIA's project focused on espionage during the Cold War against the USSR. The scientific community remains skeptical about unidentified sightings, despite individual experiments lacking consistent evidence of reliability.

However, declassified documents from 2000 continue to fuel the desire for the extraordinary.
One such document, authored in 1987 and named "Description of Personnel Associated with 'Alien' Bases," outlines sessions where "observers" supposedly visualized and described unknown-origin bases across Alaska, Titan (a moon of Saturn), and Africa or South America.
The report paints "residents" with "extraordinarily large heads" and undeniably non-human appearances. Witnesses reported viewing beings in lab coats, including an attractive woman, on Titan.
Mount Hayes: Myths and Facts
Mount Hayes in Alaska is back in the limelight - a place referenced in a CIA document in relation to UFOs. Supposedly, an "observer" claimed there was a base there where certain entities "carried out routine tasks." The origin of this idea remains unclear, possibly stemming from confusing received "remote viewing" tasks with observed luminosities and lights, potentially caused by atmospheric phenomena or ionized gases.
Congressional Hearings: Questions and Speculations without Answers
Tension surrounding UFOs peaked in 2023, with former intelligence officer David Grusch testifying about "non-human biological materials" found at extraterrestrial craft crash sites during Congressional hearings. However, like the CIA documents, no proof was ever made public.
- We don't deny an interest in UAP (unidentified aerial phenomena), but linking them to aliens without evidence is reckless, - asserted a Pentagon representative during the hearing.
Aliens in our Minds
The CIA's "aliens" likely reside in the minds of those who attempted "remote viewing." A healthy dose of skepticism is more than warranted.
First and foremost, the "Stargate" program was deemed unproductive for intelligence. "From hundreds of sessions, only a few offered useful information," reveals a 1995 CIA report.
Secondly, there are evident inconsistencies even in the supposedly obtained visualizations through "remote viewing." For instance, the notion that a base on Titan, where people worked, would be impossible given the lack of technology capable of enduring -179°C temperatures and a methane atmosphere.
Thirdly, most so-called UFO sightings, including those at Mount Hayes, have earthly explanations - from potential drones to optical illusions.
People are predisposed to believe in miracles when faced with the unknown, believes Professor of Astrophysics Michael Garrett.
According to a declassified report, "remote viewing is a tool of imagination, not espionage." Perhaps imagination is the primary "alien" in this story.
The CIA's "Stargate" project, aimed at exploring remote viewing, has been a subject of controversy, with its declassified documents fueling continued interest in the extraordinary. (space-and-astronomy, politics)
Despite the controversy surrounding UFO sightings and extraterrestrial life, the scientific community remains skeptical, often attributing such sightings to natural phenomena or human-made objects. (science)
