Hartleigh Trent was a former Navy petty officer and one of the original six remote viewers in the STARGATE PROJECT. He was recruited into the program, then codenamed STARGATE PROJECT, in 1977 by Frederick Atwater and Murray Watt.1
Trent was the oldest of the initial group of remote viewers, in his fifties, and had a background as a photo-interpreter. He was described as a "restless tinkerer and inventor," having built a large solar-powered hot-water heater at his home. He was also a close friend of Mel Riley and Joe McMoneagle.1
As a remote viewer, Trent was noted for his unusual ability to take directions at a target, even in confusing situations. In one instance, when asked to describe what was to his right, left, and front at a Soviet site, he accurately reported seeing a transmission, realizing he was lying under a truck.1
Trent was one of the six most promising members of the team selected to travel to Stanford Research Institute (SRI) for further evaluation of their talents. He participated in the intense, round-the-clock remote viewing sessions during the Iran hostage crisis, and was present when Jackie Keith suffered a fatal heart attack.1
