Govt consultant Ingo Swann's tale of covert et activity on the moon takes on a new twist, now that the CIA STAR GATE documents support many of his claims.

 

 

This is the bizarre true tale of Ingo Swann's psychic work for the U.S Govt, at various agencies including the CIA and the DIA (now substantiated by the CIA release of roughly two thirds of the existing STAR GATE documents) and his personal allegations of a mysterious black operation that first contacted him during the peak of CIA sponsored testing at the Stanford Research Institute.

 

To the Moon and Back, With Love

Government consultant Ingo Swann's tale of covert extraterrestrial activity on the moon takes on a new twist, now that the CIA STAR GATE documents support many of his claims.

 

 

This is the bizarre true tale of Ingo Swann's psychic work for the U.S Government, at various agencies including the CIA and the DIA (now substantiated by the CIA release of roughly two thirds of the existing STAR GATE documents) and his personal allegations of a mysterious black operation that first contacted him during the peak of CIA sponsored testing at the Stanford Research Institute.

 

 

If Ingo Swann is to be believed, and this coming from a man with top secret clearance that in his day briefed and trained officers from the USAF, the Defense Intelligence Agency, INSCOM, and many others too numerous to mention, then there is some truth to the rumors of an otherworldly intelligence working behind the scenes here on Earth. Not only are they already here, according to Swann's testimony from a rare out-of-print book, self-published in 1998, but they are building something on the far side of the moon.

 

 

 

And they are not friendly.

 

The truth is stranger than fiction, and this story is guaranteed to stretch the imagination right back into reality. For Ingo Swann, the turning point leading into the cloak and dagger world of deep black ops and weird requests for psychic surveillance of the moon and beyond began in early 1975. When Swann published his tale in 1998, most of the CIA and DIA classified documents from the secret STAR GATE program were still unavailable to the general public. As this story goes to press, in the summer of 2006, more than 80,000 pages of documents are close at hand here at Starstream Research, including the results of medical and psychological tests conducted on Mr. Swann as a result of his CIA sponsored testing while working with SRI: The Stanford Research Institute, in the 1970's.

 

 

The CIA STAR GATE Program

 

In the early 1970's concerns began to float about the various intelligence agencies over a psychic war gap with the Soviet Union. Unknown to the general public, the Soviets were busy exploring fringe science:

 

application of the dark shadow of the paranormal world for espionage.

 

 

Swann's abilities had been tracked for some time, but they really attracted the powers that be in Langley with the recording of an apparent perturbation of delicate test equipment by Swann's mental perception. In addition to disturbing the output of this sensitive instrument, Swann was able to produce a rough description of the device, which he had never seen previously.

 

 

In a letter dated June 27, 1972, Dr. Hal Puthoff of SRI wrote, "At the suggestion of Russell Targ I am writing you about an observation in the laboratory involving one Ingo Swann, a New York artist ...

 

An interesting side light of the experiment was that Ingo was able to describe rather well what the interior of the device looked like, apparently with some form of direct observation." Although redacted, it is likely that the recipient of this letter was at the CIA. Apparently sponsorship of Dr. Puthoff's interest in Swann's mental interaction with the test equipment followed quickly.

 

 

 

Among the STAR GATE files is a Stanford Research Institute (SRI) Technical Memorandum dated 22 February, 1973, prepared by Dr. Hal Puthoff and Russell Targ, Contract Number 1471(S)73 and tagged by CIA/ORD # 1416-73:

 

 

"A program in biofield measurements was initiated in July, 1972 with a preliminary experiment with Mr. [ingo] Swann. In this work using a shielded magnetometer, Mr. Swann apparently demonstrated an ability to increase and decrease at will the magnetic field within a superconducting magnetic shield. This experiment made use of an existing facility and we have confidence that Mr. Swann had no prior knowledge of either the apparatus or of our intended experiment."

An August, 1972 memo to the Chief of TSD/BAB at the CIA notes that,

 

" ... [name redacted] and somebody named [redacted] from [CIA] Life Sciences are planning a trip to the West Coast on 11 August, when they will meet Ingo Swann and have a chance to watch him flex his sphincter ... Life Sciences is planning on forming a coordinating committee to work on ESP and the data that is coming in ..."

 

 

When we contacted the unnamed former officer from CIA Life Sciences, he confirmed the authenticity of the document, but denied any knowledge of Swann's tale.

 

 

An undated draft memorandum from Deputy Director for Operations William Colby, addressed to the "Director of Central Intelligence," reveals the clandestine nature of CIA involvement in research using human subjects:

 

"Recently, two individuals, Mr. Uri Geller and Mr. Ingo Swann, appear to have demonstrated certain of these abilities [paraphysical effects] under controlled laboratory conditions. The abilities of these individuals (unwitting of Agency [CIA] sponsorship) are being submitted to a serious scientific investigation, part of which is being supported by the above mentioned project."

 

 

 

An anonymous source, working in the alternative energy and transportation industry recently commented that "Actually, they became interested in Swann when he RV'ed [psychically remote viewed] some of their well-hidden deep underground vaults, and the contents thereof. This was when they approached SRI because they were finally truly scared about the reality of RV [psychic remote viewing] as a tool in the hands of the Soviets."

 

 

Based upon the available records in STAR GATE, no one seems to have seriously considered that all of these manifestations of the impossible were strong indications of interference in human affairs by higher intelligence with more powerful technologies at their disposal. Or did they? Swann's account in his book suggests that someone lurking in the shadows was paying very close attention; someone whose reach included the often super-secret work done at SRI.

 

 

 

Starstream Research was able to uncover Swann's medical and psychological test results from SRI documents, even though the test subjects were referred to only as S1 through S6. One of the CIA memos failed to redact the names of the participants, and it was simple enough to use the process of elimination of sex and age to determine the identity of Ingo Swann and Pat Price, two of SRI's early star performers.

 

 

 

According to the official record, Swann was in almost every way perfectly normal. He certainly wasn't delusional, as the tests confirmed.

During the early days the CIA funded SRI research team harbored concerns that the Soviet KGB would be interested in the work they were doing, and always held in the back of their minds that they might someday be kidnapped, or worse. Cold war paranoia was still in full bloom during the early days of psychic-spy research.

 

 

 

MR. AXELROD

 

Swann's departure from psychic experiments funded by the CIA, into the mysterious black unknown, began with his recruitment by a man who called himself "Mr. Axelrod."

 

 

A CIA memorandum for the record dated 21 January, 1975, documents the status of the SRI program just prior to Axelrod's appearance:

 

"In 1972 reports of paranormal activities being documented at SRI by Dr. H. Puthoff and Mr. R. Targ reached the Agency. The original contracts were [redacted] OTS/APB and [redacted] ORD/TC. A small work order type contract (approximately $10,000) was initiated by [redacted] with the permission of Dr. S. Gottlieb, D/OTS. This contract arranged for SRI to administer controlled laboratory testing of Mr. Ingo Swann, a New York City artist, with claimed paranormal abilities. Mr. Swann was tested and produced significant data under controlled conditions."

 

 

 

We will only mention that Dr. Sidney Gottlieb, D/OTS was heavily involved in the notorious CIA experimentation on human subjects using LSD, under a project called MKULTRA.

 

 

In late February, 1975, Swann's affair with the mysterious operation interested in extraterrestrial activity was initiated by a phone call from a well placed acquaintance, who alerted Swann to a forthcoming contact with a real-life man in the black.

 

 

 

Weeks later the call came in at 3AM, requesting Swann's presence in Washington, D.C.

 

 

The mysterious contact from Mr. Axelrod directed Swann through a series of covert meetings at various locations. In the first meeting Swann was instructed to wait at the Museum of Natural History at the Smithsonian, until he was contacted by Axelrod's operatives. In a scene worthy of a Hollywood movie, Swann was subjected to a full body search while en-route to the clandestine meeting. To prevent Swann from knowing the location of Axelrod's secret underground lair, a black hood was placed over his head.

 

 

 

Needless to say, by this point Swann's mind was spinning, wondering what on Earth he had gotten himself into.

 

 

The strange twists and turns of Swann's recruitment into black ops psychic spying would eventually culminate in a close physical encounter with what appeared to be an alien machine.

 

 

 

Who was this Mr. Axelrod? One legendary group of alleged deep black government insiders, brought into the limelight by a series of 'leaked' papers (unlike the STAR GATE files, which were officially released by the CIA) is known as MAJESTIC. Our anonymous source questioned the likelihood of Swann's mysterious Mr. Axelrod being involved with the so-called MJ-12 MAJESTIC group, which the FBI has declared as originating from bogus UFO documents. Although the FBI has stated that the various MAJESTIC documents are fakes, one of our other intelligence sources recently suggested that the bogus documents may have been used to pass real intelligence to the Russians.

 

 

 

Mr. Axelrod's mission statement to recruit Swann was purely verbal: there was to be no paper trail; no secrecy statement; lending some evidence that Axelrod's people might have been working under non-official-cover (NOC) -- they would be denied by those in charge if their activities were ever revealed.

 

 

Swann soon learned Axelrod's primary interests were less than Earthly. In addition to the potential of remote viewing the lunar surface, Axelrod also had a fascination with the concept of telepathy, the sharing of thoughts in a conscious interface.

 

 

Confirmation that the human race had fallen under the finger of higher intelligence with advanced technology was also a strong indication of the correctness of the simulation argument: Any interaction between a 'natural' reality and a much more developed intelligence automatically meant that simulation had entered the picture. The interface of human-mind with alien-mind as a complex simulation scenario had not yet been fully evaluated in the available CIA-sponsored research literature of the time.

 

 

 

The personal mental environment is largely an assembled experience or simulation based upon millions of years of development. The idea of 'telepathy' or the mind-to-mind interface is an artifice introduced to bridge many individual simulations, each with their unique point of view of the same natural environment: The world 'out there' in a telepathic network merges the individual with an undivided whole.

 

 

Perhaps there was a general subconscious discomfort level and fear induced by the knowledge that a higher intelligence appeared to have developed a means of interacting directly with the human brain and higher conscious mind functions as a form of communication, or worse, as mind-control. Once a form of direct to brain communication was accepted, a network of minds linked in a cosmic internet was the next logical assumption.

 

 

Recent research using functional MRI technology to read the state of a human brain and correlate that state with behavior is an example of a primitive means of interfacing mind and machine. The idea floating around in government circles today is to use the fMRI to spot terrorists intending to cause mayhem and destruction, by detecting their thoughts. In a related story, the American Civil Liberties Union has raised concerns that such devices are an invasion of privacy and may have been used to interrogate suspected terrorists.

 

 

Given a few million or more years to advance their technology, one might ask what kind of device might be evolved into the brain-mind of an alien civilization?

 

 

 

Axelrod debriefed Swann about his work at SRI, in particular the psychic method that later came to be known as coordinate remote viewing. How did it work? At first Axelrod limited discussions to the power of the group mind, and discussion of 'memory' addressing. Were remote viewers accessing the universal mind-computer? Thirty years prior to recent serious discussions that humanity might exist in a simulation of reality, Axelrod was probing Swann about a stored memory of all possible worlds and outcomes, and a means of accessing this potential database underlying reality. Dinner conversation also included discussion of telepathy: mind-to-mind communication, something that the DIA would become very interested in later, as shown by the STAR GATE files.

 

 

 

Soon the discussion turned to Swann's experimental remote viewing of the planet Jupiter which had yielded apparent hits, like the existence of rings around the planet. Axelrod was interested in Swann's 'trip' to Jupiter, an attempt to see if he could psychically discover unknown details about the gas giant that might later be confirmed by the NASA Pioneer spacecraft.

 

 

 

And then he asked, "Ingo, what do you know about the moon?"

 

 

MOON BASE: OCULAR LUNA

 

Swann had quickly agreed to accept $1000-a-day compensation to remote view the moon.

 

 

Axelrod tasked Ingo with a series of moon coordinates. Unknown to Swann, the targeted moon coordinates, about ten different locations, would bring him mind-to-mind with what he soon realized was an unearthly extraterrestrial presence.

 

 

Swann 'saw' with his mind's eye craters in darkness, and decided that he must be seeing the hidden side of the moon, the side that always faces away from the Earth. Upon achieving psychic 'contact' with the lunar surface, Swann first came upon what looked like trails of tractor-tread marks. Confusion set in until Swann realized that he was 'seeing' intelligent activity and structures on the moon.

 

 

 

In the depths of a crater he viewed a green, dusty haze lit by banks of artificial lights mounted on very large, tall towers. Swann was stunned by the realization that 'someone' or 'something' appeared, under the aegis of his mind's eye, to be building a base on the moon. He had been inducted into an interplanetary operation and brought to Mr. Axelrod's underground facility by the need to monitor extraterrestrial activities in an unconventional way. Swann decided that Axelrod and company had been given the task of psychically spying on the alien moon base because the extraterrestrials had been less than friendly about conventional human curiosity.

 

 

 

When Ingo sensed that he had been psychically 'spotted' by two of the humanoid-looking inhabitants of the moon base, he questioned whether or not he was at risk.

 

 

Axelrod was less than forthcoming.

 

 

"I spent the next few months wondering if the ET's were going to find me and zap my brains out of existence."

 

 

 

After being released from his work at the underground facility, Swann returned home and sketched what he could recall of the Axelrod sessions, and locked them away until the late 1990's. They are reproduced in his book. The sketch is dated March 14, 1975.

 

 

 

A recent TV documentary, "Apollo 11: The Untold Story," may have added additional support to Swann's moon-base tale. Apollo 11 astronaut Buzz Aldrin reported they had seen a UFO during their historic flight to land the first man on the moon. "There was something out there, close enough to be observed, and what could it be? Now, obviously the three of us weren't going to blurt out, Hey, Houston, we've got something moving alongside of us and we don't know what it is, you know? Can you tell us what it is?"

 

 

Mr. Axelrod's reach even extended within SRI. At the time of first contact, STAR GATE records prove that Swann was still officially unaware that the experiments and tests at SRI were being conducted under the auspices of the CIA. Taken at face value Swann's account could be interpreted as the passing of information about CIA sponsored research to a organization of unknown origin for an extended period of at least a couple of years.

 

 

At one point Swann was instructed to relay to Axelrod the status of the SRI psychic results. In a classic example of the spy art, Swann was instructed to write the number 65 on a piece of paper to alert Axelrod when they had achieved a 65 percent hit rate using remote viewing. One might wonder if this was an indication of a security breach at SRI, or merely a means of checking Swann's loyalty.
