As NASA searches for life on Mars, a CIA document claims it was found 40 years ago.
The report, “Mars Exploration May 22, 1984,” describes how the agency used astral projection — the idea that a person’s mind can travel through the astral plane — to transport a “subject” to Mars about a million years B.C.
The research was part of Project Stargate, a secret US military unit founded in 1977 that focused on anomalous phenomena including remote viewing, telepathy and psychokinesis.
Participants were exposed to sounds such as binaural beats and hemi-sync audio to induce altered states of consciousness and promote psychic abilities.
The “subject” of the experiment was transported to the planet in the indicated year and reported an “oblique view of a pyramid” and a “very large road” with a monument similar to those known to the ancient Egyptians on Earth, the report said.
The vision then shifted to a population of “very large people” who were looking for “a new place to live because their environment was corrupt.”
Project Stargate was the US government’s new weapon against the Soviet Union, aimed at creating mind-reading spies who could infiltrate the minds of its enemies.
The secret project was conducted at Fort Meade in Maryland, recruiting men and women claiming to have extrasensory perception (ESP) to help reveal military and domestic intelligence secrets.

It closed in 1995, but during its decade-plus existence, psychics known as “remote viewers” took part in a wide range of operations, from locating hostages kidnapped by Islamic terrorist groups to tracking the trails of fugitive criminals in the US
Leading up to its closure was ‘Mars Exploration May 22, 1984’, a document released in 2017 and recently resurfaced online.
The document is sparse on details, starting with: “Location Acquisition Method: Sealed Envelope Linked to Geographic Coordinates.”
The envelope was handed to the subject before the interview, but was not opened until afterwards.
‘Inside the envelope was a 3×5 card with the following information: The Planet Mars. Time of interest approximately one million BC,” the document reads.
The experiment administrator verbally communicated the contents of the envelope and allowed the subject to make his observations. The start time was 10:09 am ET.
The subject was asked to focus his attention on ‘40.89 degrees north latitude, 9.55 degrees west’.
“It kind of looks like… I have a sort of slanted image of a uh… pyramid or pyramid shape,” the subject said.

They continued to describe the structure as okra-colored, a shade ranging from yellow to deep orange and brown.
The subject then observed shadows of “very tall, skinny” people wearing strange clothing.
The administrator asked the subject to stay during that period, but to move to another location in the room.
The landscape showed a very long road with what looked like the Washington Monument at the end.
“It’s like an… obelisk,” the subject said before being asked to move to different locations until he saw people again.
The subject moved to a place where a violent storm was raging through Mars, and people were using the gigantic pyramids as shelter.
‘Several rooms… but they’re almost stripped of any… furniture or anything. It’s like, um… strictly functional, a place to sleep – or that’s not a good word – hibernation, in some form or another,” the subject said.
I can’t… I’m getting real raw input, storms, raging storms, and sleeping through storms.”
The experiment suggested that a population of people on Mars perished after intense storms swept through the planet
The administrator asked the subject to describe who slept through the storms.
‘Again very… tall, very big… people, but they are thin. They look like that because of their height, and they dress like in, oh damn, it’s like a real light silk, but it’s not a flowing kind of clothing. It’s like tailor-made,” they explained.
The subject told the manager that these were old people who were dying.
“It’s past their time or age,” the subject said. ‘They are very philosophical about it. They’re looking for a way to survive, but they just can’t.’
The subject seemed concerned for the old people and said that they were looking for a way out or waiting for the return of something.
“It’s like I’m getting all kinds of overwhelming input from the…corruption of their environment,” the subject said.
“It fails very quickly and this group has gone somewhere, far away, looking for another place to live.”
The subject claimed to have spoken to one of these people, who told them that a group had left in what “looks like the inside of a larger boat.”
The administrator told the subject to come along on the trip and report what he saw.
‘Impression of a truly crazy place with volcanoes, gas bubbles and strange plants – a very volatile place. It’s a lot like going from the frying pan into the fire,” the subject said.
‘The difference is that there appears to be a lot of vegetation where it was not present at the other location. And a different kind of storm.”
The administrator then told the subject that it was time to come back.
“Now go back to the room, back to the sound of my voice, back even further to the sound of my voice on May 22, 1984,” they told the subject.
