Psi Tech was an American company founded by former U.S. Army officer Ed Dames to sell "remote viewing" services commercially, after his involvement with the military's psychic intelligence programs. It became widely known in the 1990s through Dames's predictions on the radio show Coast to Coast AM.[1][2]
Founding
After leaving the Army, Dames set up Psi Tech to offer remote viewing — the claimed ability to describe distant targets with the mind — to paying clients. The company later became involved in a lawsuit brought by a business associate, who said Dames had tried to cut him out of profits; Dames was ordered to pay $435,000 after a breach-of-contract judgment and stepped down as the company's president.[1]
The Hale-Bopp claims
In 1997 Dames appeared repeatedly on Art Bell's radio show discussing comet Hale-Bopp. He said remote viewers had found an artificial, cylindrical object that had separated from the comet and was heading for Earth, carrying a plant pathogen, and would enter the atmosphere between December 1997 and February 1998. Astronomers at the European Southern Observatory found no evidence of any companion to the comet; a widely circulated image of a supposed companion was shown to be a star. The predicted object never arrived.[2][3]
Legacy
Psi Tech's predictions became a standard example of the failure of remote viewing claims, and Dames continued to make predictions, including of a coming catastrophe he called the "Kill Shot".[1][4]
