(S/NF/SK) In October 1988, and again from 4-5 January 1989, three remote viewers conducted a total of six sessions to collect intelligence information concerning a facility of interest. Site was portrayed in an overhead photograph, and bordered in yellow (TAB 1) . 2. (S/NF/SK) Source Of1 described a large complex consisting of numerous rectangular structures of various dimensions and oriented in various directions with respect to one another. These structures were interconnected both conceptually, and often literally (see Sketch 1 at TAB B). It reminded the source of a large industrial complex that was entirely self-sufficient and contained, with its own power supply, its own processing and refining facilities to execute all stages in production from raw material to finished tangible end product (see Sketches 2 and 3 at TAB B). Source further described a large, round object "made up of many angles," prismatic, reflective, that was hollow but "with something inside" (see Sketch 4 at TAB B) . When asked to explore the nature and/or purpose of this complex, source reported the concepts of production, fabrication, precision machining, and final assembly to produce an end product. He further described the "end product" as round and generally cylindrical in shape, though this was "somewhat misleading," since "the outer surface is composed of many flat angles, much like a mosaic." The object was "structurally metallic, " with a "thin skin or outer shell of a composite or other exotic material" (see Sketch 5 at TAB B). This object was slowly turning or spinning in a clockwise direction. The "geometric panes" the source described as being on the exterior of this object were reported to be smooth, glossy, reflective, shiny, silvery, and hard. The surfaces were required to be flat and geometric because the material was not malleable or machinable -- "it must be mosaic-ed to conform to a specific shape. " There was also a "flaming blast" coming from a nozzle- like device associated with this object. 3. (S/NF/SK) Source 018 originally reported "a group of buildings built in an arc around a central point. An individual was accessed at this location, through whom source described a possible grouping of long, low grey structures that had the sense of being associated with "factory" or "plant. " Subsequent sessions produced concepts of a "very tall, 'indented front' building that was then located in relation to a road, hill, and -- a distance away to the northeast -- a power plant. West of the building was a "huge complex of buildings," which was then furthered perceived. The complex reportedly involved a "rather large and old-appearing structure" to the west, while "the other buildings appeared much smaller, and arranged in a tight pattern" -- which pattern was disrupted haphazardly by buildings arranged in other patterns. Structures were significantly longer Approved For Release 2000/08/08 : CIA-RDP96-00789R000600250005-4

Inside of one of the smaller structures was a "two-story high single room," which had "work spaces among stacks of materiel, as though things are brought in, then the workers move among the things to do their work (as opposed to an assembly line, where the materials are brought to the individual workplaces) ." Source reported no incidence of "end-products" per se. There did occur "machining and tooling of partially or previously formed 'pieces', but do not handle the raw materials." Chemicals are involved, in "dry, powdery form, which source "found to be sticky solids, similar to solid rocket propellants," but these were brought into the site in bulk form and used as part of the production process. Source further reported an object formed from pieces of a large, round, "pipe"-shaped object, one of which, when completed, seemed intended for connection with some other object (Sketch 6, TAB B). A loading dock was then described, where objects of varying sizes were shipped on trucks. Source reported the complex's most important product as a "small , shiny, metallic 'box-frame like' unit (Sketch 7, TAB B)" with possible circuit boards inside it. One of these circuit boards had a large, black, metallic, "thing" on one end (Sketch 8, TAB B), the concave surface of which "radiates a constant signal which is fed to it from the chips on the board." This signal is "interrupted in regular time increments, giving the impression of a digital signal." Source also used the words "burst" and "interrupts" in referring to this signal . 4. (S/NF/SK) Source 079 described the site as a key industrial complex, a research and development center dedicated to advanced weaponry, SIGINT capabilities, and the assimilation of space modular systems. Specific facility (referred to as "yellow area" -- see TAB A) is an "industrial site" which specializes in R&D for "conceptual mathematical designs, advanced weaponry with space applications, development of advanced optics and laser systems." Further information provided by the source involved (phonetically reported) "Quasar/Qualar," reportedly some sort of laser system; "Brunizem" activity (NF1); "brucine," Cpossibly a poisonous alkaloid]; and "stoichiometry" [defined in dictionary as dealing with laws of proportion and conservation of energy]. Someone named "Stillman" (NFI) was mentioned as knowledgeable of this R&D effort. "DF" antennas were reported to be related to the "transmission and receipt of information from a Soviet space satellite. " A short distance away, in another potion of the facility (referred to as "red area" -- see TAB A) which is not directly connected with the compound in question ( "yellow area") , primary, if not exclusive emphasis is aimed at R&D efforts in optics and lasers. The focusing and direction of light beams was connected with something called the "Alman Ring." Source provided a conceptual representation of this "Alman RIng with light dots" (Sketch 9, TAB B) . The results of pure research conducted in this portion of the facility are further explored in the Approved For Release 2000/08/08 : CIA-RDP96-00789R000600250005-4
Approved For Release 2000/08/08 : CIA-RDP96-00789R000600250005-4 previously described "industrial" area to develop practical applications. A US military/government official known as "Putnam" has partial access to this facility, according to source. Approved For Release 2000/08/08 : CIA-RDP96-00789R000600250005-4
