“I wanted to do a similar, long-distance experiment,” remembers Puthoff. For over a year he had been tracking the work of international scientists who were on the tachyon hunt. “Physicists were doing all kinds of experiments in search of the tachyon,” says Puthoff. “Cosmic ray experiments, accelerator experiments, but they were all apparatus-based, inanimate physics experiments. The one place no one had looked was in biological organisms, in animate physics.” Which is how Cleve Backster fit in. “My idea was to grow an algae culture, split it, then separate the cultures by a distance of five miles. Then I’d zap one culture with a laser, burn it, see if the sister culture responded.” Puthoff’s experiment would attempt to answer two questions. “The first question was, Do living organisms really interact at a distance? If the answer was yes, then the second question was, Could the existence of tachyons provide the answer as to how the organisms communicate?”
