(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 15 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: REPRODUCTION REQUIRES APPROVAL OF ORIGINATOR OR HIGHER DOD AUTHORITY LIMITED DISTRIBUTION FURTHER DISSEMINATION ONLY AS DIRECTED BY DIA/PAG CLASSIFIED BY MULTIPLE SOURCES OR HIGHER DOD AUTHORITY DECLASSIFY ON OADR Approved Fat Fela BOO RIAU EGR REN?

In the experiment on remote observation, it was Petsnike-denonstrated 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.
