Ingo Swann and 'Mr. Axelrod': Covert Agency Tasks Remote Viewer to See Moon Bases
In February 1975, SRI remote viewer Ingo Swann receives a call about a mysterious 'Mr. Axelrod.' A month later, Axelrod calls at 3 a.m. and summons Swann to Washington. Two military-looking men with blue eyes and blonde crewcuts pick him up at the Smithsonian, blindfold him, fly him by helicopter, and take him to an underground facility. Axelrod (from an agency that 'exists without leaving a paper trail') offers $1,000/day and asks Swann to remote view Moon coordinates. Swann perceives green haze, lights, towers (100+ feet tall on narrow struts), roads, machinery, and humanoid beings 'busy at work.' When the beings apparently detect Swann's presence, Axelrod says 'Please quickly come away from that place.' Over several days Swann produces sketches and writes 15 pages on psi and interdimensional communication. Star Gate manager Major General Albert Stubblebine later confirms: 'there are structures underneath the surface of Mars... there are machines under the surface of Mars.'

Significance
The source text details Ingo Swann's involvement with psi research at SRI, beginning in 1972. The CIA approached Dr. Harold Puthoff of SRI to initiate a psi research program. The text highlights Swann's abilities, such as perturbing a magnetometer and correctly identifying a moth inside a box. In April 1973, Swann successfully remote viewed Jupiter, identifying 12 specific factors that had not been scientifically anticipated. This background information establishes Swann's credibility as a remote viewer and suggests the potential significance of his involvement with 'Mr. Axelrod' and the covert agency. The program could be related to espionage or gathering information through unconventional means.
