Major Ed Dames of Psi Tech returns for an extended deep dive into remote viewing applications, delivering revelations that range from the mundane to the extraordinary. He begins by sharing his team's preliminary remote viewing results on Art Bell's mysterious Roswell material, concluding that the parts are not alien but originate from a prototype time-travel device built roughly a decade in the future that accidentally slipped backward through a temporal vortex and crashed in the desert around 1950.

Dames then pulls back the curtain on Area 51, asserting that the base houses America's ultimate defense against nuclear attack: hypersonic unmanned craft capable of reaching Mach 18, designed to intercept ICBMs in enemy airspace before they go ballistic. He explains that the extreme secrecy stems not from alien technology but from toxic fuel classifications and satellite intelligence protection. The Major also describes his membership in the Pentagon's secret UFO working group, disguised as the Advanced Theoretical Physics Working Group.

The conversation reaches its most profound territory when Dames confirms remote viewing evidence for the survival of consciousness after death, reiterates his grim environmental predictions of atmospheric collapse and dying babies, and cryptically advises listeners to watch Mars. Art presses him on the nature of the soul, the possibility of changing predicted futures, and the paradox of perceiving one's own death.

Key Moments

  1. Art's Parts RV result: time machine, not alien: Dames reports preliminary RV results on Art's Parts: trainees concluded the metallic pieces are earth-based prototype debris from a spinning test vehicle roughly 11-16 years in the future that slipped backward in time and crashed in the desert circa 1950 - not alien, not Roswell.

  2. Crop circles as time-travel registration marks: Dames claims SciTech knows crop circles are registration marks placed in perishable media so time travelers can confirm what day they have arrived in - not messages but a tactical-environment calendar.

  3. Dying babies prediction: bovine AIDS in cow's milk: Dames revisits a 10-year-old training session in which the team sketched dying babies worldwide and traced cause to cow's milk carrying a bovine-AIDS-like virus transmitted by shared dairyman needles - timeline now within several years.

  4. Jet stream on the deck and patchwork ozone holes: Dames forecasts the jet stream descending close to the deck, producing 150-300 mph microbursts within four-and-a-half to six years, plus a patchwork of small ozone holes (not just the polar one) that will darken mid-latitude skies and end open-air agriculture.

  5. Area 51 = Mach 18 ICBM-killer, not aliens: Dames says Area 51 tests an unmanned, diamond-coated Mach-18 vehicle developed by Ben Rich's Skunk Works alumni to reach a foreign launch site and disable an ICBM in boost phase before it leaves the adversary's airspace - the nation's Sunday punch, no aliens involved.
