In this episode of the Joe Rogan Experience, Joe Rogan interviews Jacques Vallee, a ufologist, computer scientist, and venture capitalist. They discuss Vallee's early work with the ARPANET, his involvement in parapsychology research at SRI, and his investigations into UFO phenomena, including remote viewing and historical accounts of strange aerial objects. The conversation explores the challenges of studying these topics scientifically and the potential for advanced technology and perception beyond our current understanding.

Jacques Vallee was part of one of the very early internet research teams at Stanford Research Institute (SRI) when it was called the ARPANET. He mentions that SRI had engine number three on the internet at that time. He joined when there were about 30 machines already.

According to Jacques Vallee, Dr. POF and Dr. Targ conducted parapsychology research at SRI with scientific controls, looking at it from a physics point of view, not just from a psychology point of view. They designed tests tied to physical quantities. This included experiments like trying to move objects with the mind, sending messages psychically, and guessing what's written in a closed envelope.
