Consciousness & Remote Viewing

Researcher, author, and adventurer Stephan A. Schwartz discussed his work on non-locality, consciousness and remote viewing. Evidence shows that some part of our consciousness exists outside of time/space, he said, and all consciousness is interconnected and interdependent. This connectivity allows for morphogenic fields to be created, he added.

It was Edgar Cayce's "distant viewing" of the Dead Sea Scrolls (before their discovery) that first got Schwartz interested in remote viewing. As developed in the 1970s, remote viewing, which he described as a kind of "mental yoga," provides information that can be independently validated. Moments of religious ecstasy, genius, and remote viewing are all similar experiences, but they are modulated by their context and intention, he explained.

Schwartz also spoke about his work decades ago as the Special Assistant for Research and Analysis to the Chief of Naval Operations. While in this position, he took it upon himself to investigate whether the "Philadelphia Experiment" ever happened. Invisibility testing did not take place aboard the USS Eldridge, he said, though there was some testing of magnetic fields that caused minor disturbances-- but nothing like the claims that sailors were fused into the ship's bulkheads.

The Hottest Planet

The exoplanet known as HD 149026b is the hottest of all known worlds, with temperatures reaching 3,700 degrees Fahrenheit. It emits so much infrared heat that it glows. Located 279 light-years from Earth, the gas giant orbits very close to its sun. Hotter than some stars, it's "simply the most exotic, bizarre planet," said physics professor Joseph Harrington.
