Open AI Summary

Summary: The document, dated June 8, 1987, discusses the research being conducted at the Institute of the USSR Academy of Sciences on extraordinary human capabilities, popularly known as ESP. The laboratory at the Institute focuses on studying the physical fields generated by biological objects, including humans, and the valuable information that can be derived from them. The researchers have found that every human generates various physical fields, such as infrared, thermal, low-frequency electric, magnetic, acoustic, and bioluminescent. The next stage of the research is to investigate how these external physical fields can be received and processed by the human body, which involves collaboration between physicists, psychophysiologists, and other scientists. These studies may shed light on aspects of extrasensory perception.

 Excerpt from ''Science and Engineering'' feature with Boris Belitskiy's
 response to a Vermont listener's question
 BODY:
 EBelitskiy] . . . It's generally accepted among the scientists interested in
 the subject that what is popularly known as ESP is a group of phenomena whose
 existence- hinges in the Final analysis on the physical fields that are

 believed to be generated by biological objects. To study such fields a special
 laboratory has been set up at the~lns "Ate-of Radio Enaineerina and Electronic
 of the USSR Academy of Sciences. The lab is headed by f     uar              and
 overall supervision of research in this area is in the hands -o     _ url
 _yev+  a corresponding member of the academy. Some of the   n  ngs at this
 a    appear to be of definite promise. Most important of all, they have been
 ?Q tamed. 7y u frtq highly advanced physical instruments and thus meet the need
 which has so often in the past been
 flooded with data that could hardly be said to be reliable.
 [Woman announcer] What sort of Findings are you referring to at this lab?
 EBelitskiy] In the-      ears that the lab has been in existence its staff of
 physicists, engineers,   ys o ogists, and other specialists have established
 that,   ry living biological object gives rise to a complex pattern of physical
 fields. Their distribution in space and variation with the passage arkime
 yields valuable Information which can be used, for example, for purposes of
 medical diagnosis.

 [Woman] What is the nature of this physical field generated by a biological
 object, say a human being?
 (c) 1987 The British Broadcasting Corporation, June 8, 1987
 [Belltskly] Every human being generates quite a number of physical fields:
 infra-red., thermal-radio, low-frequency electric, magnetic, acoustic,
 bioluminescent and others. What the scientists at the lab are concentrating on
 Is "en-tlLyingthe type of information about the body that can be derived from
 [Woman] Such studies can, of course, provide medicine with valuable new
 diagnostic tools, but what about the problem of human beings receiving
 information via such external physical fields?
 [Belitskiy] Well, that will clearly be the-next stage of the research
 conducted at the lab. Obviously, it's even more complicated than the first
 stage, since the body in this case acts as a very complicated receiving system.
 This will involve studies of an entirely new dimension involving  ophysicists
 and psychophysiologists as well as the scientists I mentioned earlier. Such
 studies, too, are definitely planned, and it's quite possible they'll shed light
 on some aspects of what is known to the layman as ESP, extra-sensory perception.
