Since Pandolfi claims to be married to ***cough*** an extra-terrestrial wife,
Firmage expected Kiviat not only to plan a six month public roll-out of the device which Firmage was supposedly inventing, leading to a live demonstration; but Kiviat was also expected to develop and sell the network television series that would tell the Joe Firmage anti-gravity story, and also the story of the Aviary UFO history as seen through the eyes of Pandolfi. But it gets even better! Pandolfi, through his closest operative, also wanted Kiviat to tell the incredibly bizarre story of how his Pakistani wife allegedly from Kashmir, purportedly arrived on Earth via a “inter-dimensional portal,” and other tall tales which would be hard for even Hollywood to make up.
“Presentations made by me to executives at a major TV network, involving both the entertainment and news divisions, did lead to some interest,” Kiviat revealed. “But the outrageous nature of the claims being made eventually were too much to build around, especially since Pandolfi was not willing to state his claims publicly.”

If you believe Grant Cameron then Jim Semivan had a bizarre experience in his bedroom with some kind of entity appearing to him. He allegedly went to his higher ups in the CIA (and maybe even Pandolfi) to find out more about what it could be and they told him to leave it alone and forget about it.
Once he retired he joined TTSA so I guess he wasn't ready to leave it alone.
While they're doing a pretty good job of that, Will, I believe it to be accidental. Here's my guess on what we're going to see play out within the next two years. If I'm on the general target it could happen faster than that but I'm thinking 2-3 years tops. It's all subjective, of course, and I have no ego invested in being wrong but I'm feeling it rather strongly so I'm gonna throw it out there. I think TTSA is just a middle-stage of the overall "plan" and they will drop mostly out of the picture before too long. They'll be somewhere tinkering with folks heads and antennas and selling the woo and "downloading" plans for anti-grav doo-dahs but they won't be MSM front and center anymore. George will keep us advised if we keep up with him.

I think we'll be hearing more about exotic technologies in the near future from the likes of CERN and others. Some quantum things suggesting the possibility of "other dimensions." Probably even some bite-size proofs. We're all going to be introduced to the woo one way or the other and whether we like it or not.
It's possible, of course, that what we're seeing with TTSA isn't a government-sponsored psy-op/social engineering operation of some sort, but like I've said previously I can't get around thinking this has official approval. If you believe that to be true then the evidentiary items suggest some paradigm-shifting things on the horizon.

Don't forget the living laboratory that is ATS - frankly, they'd be a fool to NOT to use us for some useful social engineering equations. Wouldn't ANY of us in their position do the same? Hardly illegal and infinitely fascinating despite a slight wobble on the morality compass.
I think they already have tbh.

Emerging Cognitive Neuroscience and Related Technologies, from the National Research Council, identifies and explores several specific research areas that have implications for U.S. national security, and should therefore be monitored consistently by the intelligence community. These areas include:
1. neurophysiological advances in detecting and measuring indicators of psychological states and intentions of individuals
2. the development of drugs or technologies that can alter human physical or cognitive abilities
3. advances in real-time brain imaging
4. breakthroughs in high-performance computing and neuronal modeling that could allow researchers to develop systems which mimic functions of the human brain, particularly the ability to organize disparate forms of data.
As these fields continue to grow, it will be imperative that the intelligence community be able to identify scientific advances relevant to national security when they occur. To do so will require adequate funding, intelligence analysts with advanced training in science and technology, and increased collaboration with the scientific community, particularly academia.
A key tool for the intelligence community, this book will also be a useful resource for the health industry, the military, and others with a vested interest in technologies such as brain imaging and cognitive or physical enhancers.
True and False Memories as an Illustrative Case of the Difficulty of Developing Accurate and Practical Neurophysiological Indexes of Psychological States
An important issue for cognitive neuroscientists concerns efforts to determine whether a person is reporting a true experience or one that is false but believed. In the last decade, there have been innumerable research efforts designed to distinguish true from false memories. Earlier work examining behavioral differences between true and false memories revealed that group differences were sometimes found (for example, more sensory details in true-memory reports) (Schooler et al., 1986). However, the statistical group differences did not enable reliable classification of any particular memory report as to its authenticity...
The military application of neuroscience research - Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists
Several of the cognitive science applications that have the most enormous ethical implication (as described by Huang and Kosal) contain advances that are being made even faster than publicly thought. These advances do not include lie detection technology, whose potential to invade the privacy of individuals is an unrealistic scientific possibility (I'm waiting for a theory of mind to be developed first!). They do include an approach to near-real-time, multimodal cognitive measurements to "watch people think" while under stress (an achievable goal scientifically) not under duress (an unachievable goal scientifically).
Not all of the "good" research will be done exclusively in the West--at least not before 2015. The results of this work will make sick people well and soldiers safer, but the technologies will not exclusively follow Western views on ethical questions, such as human stem-cell research, research on willing prisoners, and work on human-animal chimeras…
Then there is Jim, whose professional history in the subject goes back to his personal involvement in the Stargate project in the 1970’s and as a participant in the legendary “Working Group” meetings in the eighties. As one of the intel community’s most senior medical analysts, Jim frequently communicates with UFOlogists.
Chris Iverson believes that Tom and Jim clearly have differing agendas, noting, “Jim is the person I have had the most contact with over the last several months and he seems to be interested in the spreading of viral memes over the internet, particularly in relation to this subject.”…
“The whole subject,” Jim says in wonderfully measured speech, “is composed of three components: delusion, sociological groupthink, and a kernel of truth.” Jim then reminds that he is first and foremost a medical scientist. “My interest in this subject is much, much more professional than it is personal. That is, 90 to 95% of all persons who are engaged fully with this [UFO] subject are psychiatrically ill, and by that I mean that they are on medication or should be.”
Jim elaborates that “viral memes,”[see below] in which disturbed people seek validation in numbers on the web, is, or should be, a growing public health concern. That said, Jim nonetheless has a real interest in UFO’s, and seemingly with good reason.
Both Tom and Jim seem to share at least one rationale for their internet excursions: studying the frightening potential of “viral internet memes.”
Coined by evolutionary theorist Richard Dawkins in 1976 (The Selfish Gene), a meme is a unit of cultural information that evolves the way a gene propagates from one organism to another, and subject to all the analogous unintended mutations. In the view of many, computers and blogs could function as powerful meme “replicators.”
Richard Brodie, the creator of Microsoft Word, notes, “Most of these viruses of the mind are spread because they are intriguing or frightening or inspiring, and not necessarily because they're true. That's the problem.” It doesn’t take much intuition to envision an enemy creating memes that can be used to destabilize a society, or a freelance predator utilizing them to cozy up to potential victims.
“Jim” (pseudo.), a physician and former CIA officer in the Directorate of Science and Technology, maintains his security clearance, and travels back to Washington often to work on classified psychological studies.

The amazing thing is that its pulling in interest/investment from silicon valley per the recent articles. The so called techno-financial elite isn't any better at not falling for this stuff then anyone else it seems.
“Although there might be private companies that are working on new technologies, it’s really difficult to get access unless you’re an extremely affluent investor,” Chanin said. That’s why Chanin partnered with Space Investment Services, run by former Space Foundation director of research Micah Walter-Range, to develop the Procure Space ETF, ticker UFO.
The exchange-traded fund of 30 companies gives everyday investors a way to own a stake in the growing space economy. UFO also focuses as much as possible on “pure play” space companies, Chanin said, as roughly 80% derive the majority of revenue from space businesses. “UFO provides, compared to other types of investment vehicles, a relatively low cost and diversified away to invest in this specific theme,” Chanin said.
