Remote Viewer No. 1, Stargate program veteran · US · b. 1946
Sourcing status: Sourced and not flagged as disputed (see Sources section below for the 4 citations this entry is based on).

Retired U.S. Army Chief Warrant Officer and one of the best-known participants in the U.S. military's remote-viewing programs, later grouped under the name Stargate Project. His relevance to the Atlas is UAP-adjacent: consciousness, anomalous cognition, and claimed non-local perception are recurring themes in high-strangeness UAP research. He has written books on remote viewing, intelligence work, time, and UFO-adjacent perception claims.

Background

McMoneagle served in U.S. Army intelligence and became one of the first operational remote viewers in the Fort Meade program, earning the nickname 'Remote Viewer No. 1.' After retiring from the Army in 1984, he continued consulting and writing on remote viewing, consciousness, time, and anomalous perception. His claims remain scientifically disputed, but the declassified existence of the government program makes him important to UAP studies that overlap with parapsychology, human performance, and intelligence-community experiments.
