In May 2018 the journalist Linda Moulton Howe reported on her Earthfiles website about "Area 29". She described it as a little-known area possibly linked to Area 51 and to UFOs. The report included a remote viewer's claims that targets were linked to "Omega" operations involving advanced propulsion. The full report is behind a paywall, and the claims rest on remote-viewing sessions, a method that a 1995 government-commissioned review concluded had never been useful for intelligence. There is no independent evidence for "Omega" operations or for the claims about Area 29.[1][3]
The report
The Earthfiles article, published on 30 May 2018 under the title "Mysterious Area 29 – Is It Linked to Area 51 and UFOs?", was illustrated with a photograph of White Sands National Park and Missile Range in New Mexico. Its public preview quotes a remote viewer called "Sky Arrow": "These targets make me nervous. They're all associated with a code word Omega Operations." The viewer said they were connected to "deep space propulsion vehicles, ground to space aircraft, Mach 10 plus vehicles, negative gravity vehicles". The list went on to "high energy output devices, high energy weapons systems, high altitude loitering surveillance systems, encrypted long-range instantaneous communication devices, UFOs, reverse engineering technology development from ET recovered materials". The rest of the report is available only to subscribers.[2][3]
Linda Moulton Howe
Howe, born in Idaho in 1942, began as a television producer focused on environmental issues and won a regional Emmy for her 1980 documentary A Strange Harvest. That film suggested that cattle mutilations were the work of extraterrestrials and that the U.S. government was complicit. She has long speculated that the government is working with aliens. The skeptic Joe Nickell called her a "credulous journalist". In 1983 the Air Force Office of Special Investigations agent Richard Doty fed her fabricated documents. Doty later said: "We gave Linda some good information, and some bad information. She chose the bad information." She has run Earthfiles since 1998, and was for years a regular guest on Coast to Coast AM.[1][2]
Remote viewing
Remote viewing, the claimed ability to describe distant or hidden targets by mental means, was studied by the U.S. government for two decades, latterly under the name Stargate. In 1995 Congress transferred the programme from the Defense Intelligence Agency to the CIA, which commissioned a review by the American Institutes for Research, with a panel including the statistician Jessica Utts and the psychologist Ray Hyman. It found that remote viewing had not been shown to work by a psychic mechanism and had never been used operationally. The information produced was vague and included irrelevant and erroneous data. The CIA cancelled and declassified the programme.[4]
Assessment
There is no independent evidence for "Omega" operations or for the claims about Area 29, and the source is an anonymous remote viewer. The item is included as part of the record of claims circulating in 2018.[1][3]
