CIA Files Reveal Alleged Alien Civilization and Human-Like Beings on Moon’s Dark Side

CIA’s Secret Moon Mission: Psychic’s Alien Encounter Resurfaces Amid NASA’s Lunar Plans

A declassified CIA file has reignited speculation about extraterrestrial life on the moon, just as the U.S. prepares to send astronauts back after decades. The document details Cold War-era experiments with “remote viewing”—a psychic practice to gather intel from afar—and one participant’s alleged discovery of alien structures on the lunar far side.

Project Stargate and a Psychic’s Lunar Vision
In the 1970s, the CIA recruited individuals claiming psychic abilities for Project Stargate, a covert program to spy on global rivals. Among them was Ingo Swann, a renowned remote viewer. In 1998, Swann’s book Penetration revealed a chilling 1975 assignment: he was blindfolded, flown to an underground facility, and tasked with psychically “visiting” the moon’s hidden side.

Swann described seeing massive towers, domed buildings, and humanoid beings mining craters. “They looked exactly like us,” he wrote, noting the aliens wore no clothing and seemed aware of his presence. One structure rivaled the size of the UN headquarters. Disturbingly, he claimed the entities detected his consciousness, prompting his handler, “Mr. Axelrod,” to abruptly end the session.

Government Secrets and the Moon’s “Dark Side”
Swann’s account raised questions about why the U.S. abandoned crewed moon missions after 1972. He speculated that officials knew of the lunar inhabitants and their hostility. When he asked Axelrod if aliens had warned humans away, the agent replied, “approximately correct… but not completely.”

Despite decades of probes by the U.S., Russia, China, and others, no proof of alien life has emerged. Yet Swann’s story persists, fueled by ongoing fascination with the moon’s unexplored regions.

Modern Missions and Lunar Mysteries
NASA’s Artemis program aims to return astronauts to the moon by 2026, while China plans a crewed landing by 2030. This urgency coincides with recent U.S. budget shifts: the Trump administration redirected $6 billion from Mars research and the International Space Station to prioritize lunar and Mars crewed missions. Over $1 billion now supports NASA’s goal to “outpace” China and reach Mars—a vision shared by SpaceX’s Elon Musk.

Congress has also held hearings on UFOs and extraterrestrial activity, reflecting growing public and governmental curiosity. Swann’s account, though unproven, underscores enduring questions: What lies on the moon’s far side? And could upcoming missions finally uncover its secrets—alien or otherwise?

Legacy of a Cosmic Mystery
While skeptics dismiss remote viewing as pseudoscience, Swann’s tale endures as a eerie footnote in space exploration history. As humanity eyes the moon anew, his claims remind us that the cosmos may still hold surprises—whether ancient craters, hidden bases, or truths beyond our imagination.

Whether fact or fiction, Swann’s story challenges us to look beyond the stars—and question what might be watching back.
