Remote Viewing is the ability to perceive information nonlocally, or, from great distances, outside of what are considered normally accessible by the five senses.
The term was originally conceived by science researchers who were contracted by intelligence agencies to determine whether or not accurate psychic information access was viable for potential military applications. Those researchers, working along side skilled psychics Ingo Swann and Pat Price, determined that psychic, non-local information access was indeed verifiable.
