Harold E. Puthoff

Template:Remote ViewingHarold E. Puthoff, Ph.D., is an American physicist.

He is most famous for his unusual research in parapsychological studies of Uri Geller with Russell Targ, remote viewing, the Church of Scientology, and lately his development of ideas on Zero point energy and stochastic electrodynamics.

He received his PhD from Stanford University in 1967. He has worked for General Electric, Sperry, the National Security Agency, Stanford University, SRI International, and, since 1985, as Director of the Institute for Advanced Studies at Austin, Texas, a private think-tank.

He has worked on tunable lasers, electron-beam devices, and "quantum zero-point-energy" effects, with several patents.

He is a CEO of EarthTech International.

Dr. Puthoff was a United States Navy officer assigned to the National Security Agency (NSA) before converting to civilian status (GS-13) at NSA where he met Ken Shoulders, a key gadgeteer of microelectronic equipment. Following receipt of his Ph.D. at Stanford University, Puthoff went to SRI where he founded the remote-viewing program, funded by the CIA and the Department of Defense. Dr. Puthoff has held the highest USG national security clearances.
