CIA STAR GATE Fax: Sketch of URDF-3, Semipalatinsk

This three-page document from the CIA CREST/Reading Room archive is a classified fax cover sheet originating from CIA/ORD/EPG at the 846 Ames Building. It transmits a sketch (annotated '30 grad') of URDF-3 at Semipalatinsk — the Unidentified Research and Development Facility long used as a target in the agency's remote viewing / psychoenergetics (psychic functioning) research. Handwritten remarks note that the enclosed sketch was discussed and intended for release, and that it would be the subject of a review and part of a related psychology/parapsychology study. Sender and recipient fields carry SG1B/SG1I source-protection redactions. A page marked 'FIGURE 3' is included but its imagery is not extractable. The file was approved for release on 2003/04/18. The underlying remote-viewing activity date is not stated in the extracted text.
