The [[Office of Naval Research]] (ONR) is an agency within the [[U.S. Navy]] responsible for the science and technology programs of the [[U.S. Navy]] and Marine Corps. It funds basic and applied research to develop new technologies and capabilities for naval operations.[^1]
In the context of psychic research, the ONR funded the development of the superconducting-shielded magnetometer used by [[Arthur Hebard]] at [[Stanford University]], which was later used in [[Hal Puthoff]]'s experiments with [[Ingo Swann]]. The ONR also provided contracts to scientists like [[Allan H. Frey]] for research on the effects of microwave radiation on the human body.[^1]
