OBJECTIVE
(U)
(S)
The objective
of
the Remote Viewing
(RV)
Reliability,
Enhance-
ment,
and Evaluation Task
is
to develop remote viewing techniques,
both
to
enhance
the potential
for
U.S.
applications,
and
to provide data
that may
be
useful
in assessing
the
threat potential
of corresponding Soviet
applications
.
(U)
RV
(remote viewing)
is
the acquisition
and description,
by mental
means
,
of
information
that has been blocked
from ordinary perception by
distance
or
by
shielding.

INTRODUCTION/DEFINITIONS
(U)
A.
(U)
DoD Psychoenergetics Program
(S/NF)
Project GRILL FLAME was
a
joint. DIA/Army effort;
DIA provided
overall project management and coordination.
The project’s primary goals
were
to evaluate
the threat
that foreign psychoenergetics achievements might
pose
to U.S.
national
security,
and
to explore
the potential
of psycho-
energetics
for use
in U.S.
intelligence collection.
B.
(U)
Psychoenergetics- -Def in it ion
(S/NF)
Psychoenergetics refers
to classes
of human capabilities
generally referred
to
as parapsychological
,
or
psi phenomena.
There
are
two main categories,
informational
and energetic, which can
be defined
as:
•
Remote Viewing
(RV ) /Extrasensory Perception
(ESP) --Ability
of
an
individual
to access
and describe remote geographic
areas
or
to access
and describe concealed data via undefined
transmission mechanisms.
Examples
include
The
(mental)
viewing
of
the contents
of
a
safe
or
a distant military
site.
’’Pickup”
of
the
thoughts
of
another.
Direct foreknowledge
of
a
future event,
such
as
the firing
of
a missile.
•
Psychokinesis
(PK)/ Remote Perturbation
(RP) - -Mental
ability
to
influence physical
systems
through
undefined physical mechanisms.
Examples
include
The physical movement
of
an
object by
a
(mental)
effort of
the will
alone.
Perturbation
of
an electronic
or mechanical
component,
such
as
a microchip
or
a gyro,
by
mental
effort.
Perturbation
of
a basic physical process,
such
as
the decay rate
of radioactive material,
by
mental
effort.
(S/NF)
Application
of psychoenergetic processes
to military/
intelligence objectives
includes
the use
of
the remote viewing process
in

Approved For Release 2003/09g^:^IJ^Ig)y96-00788R001 800150001 -7
(S/NF)
data collection
(verified),
and
the use
of
the remote perturbation processes
to,
for example,
influence weapons
systems
(potential).
In
this document
we concentrate
on
the former,
remote viewing.
