Responses to SSCI Questions
Questions
15 a
&
b:
(S)
"Is this research and development project cost
effective"?
(S)
"What are the performance criteria for STAR GATE"?
Answer
(S/NF/SG/LIMDIS)
In response to a January 1994
Congressionally Directed Action
(CDA)
,
Defense Authorization
Classified Annex Joint Explanatory Statement,
Enclosure
13,
the
Defense Intelligence Agency has prepared a draft multi-year
research and peer review plan to focus on these issues
Specifically,
the draft plan addresses the issue as to whether
Project STAR GATE can show results that are both cost-effective
and can also satisfy reasonable performance criteria.
In that
regard,
the Defense Intelligence Agency will convene a Scientific
Advisory Group consisting of chief scientists from the Services
and from DDR&E to validate the program's research and development
objectives and make recommendations as to which objectives should
be pursued and the program scope required to achieve those
objectives.
If the Scientific Advisory Group determines
objectives
in the plan are viable and executable,
the General
Defense Intelligence Program Manage will compete this initiative
with others for limited available resources remaining in the
program
Question
c:
(S)
What examples of STAR GATE can be cited as contributing
to the intelligence functional areas of collection and
production?
Answer
(S)
During FY93 Project STAR GATE contributed to the
intelligence functional areas of collection and production in the
following areas:

land reported on the work done by the contractor in
research which provided data on significant experimental results
that could be considered of a breakthrough nature.
Experiments
were in the areas of entropy which demonstrated a significant
degree of correlation between anomalous cognition
(AC)
and
dynamic changes
in a target's entropy.
The value added is that
it should provide an objective method for assessing the AC skills

In the experiment on remote observation,
it was
/g^S^/t/e^demonstrated that changes in the electrical properties of
a
person's skin could be effected according to the intent of the
isolated operator.
The value added
is that anomalous mental
phenomena
(AMP)
could be used to remotely influence biological
systems.
As a result of the experiment regarding alpha
desynchronization it may be possible to train JWJUUJ&aa
in a manner
similar to biofeedback.
