For decades, stories about hidden extraterrestrial installations on Earth have remained confined to conspiracy theories, classified rumors, and fringe investigations. Now, a former participant in one of the most controversial intelligence programs in American history has reignited the debate with astonishing new claims.
Speaking during a recent appearance on the popular podcast American Alchemy, former CIA remote viewer Lyn Buchanan alleged that the government-funded Stargate Project identified four secret alien bases located in remote mountainous regions around the world. According to Buchanan, these locations were not random anomalies but active sites allegedly connected to extraterrestrial operations occurring on Earth.

The sites he identified include Mount Hayes in Alaska, Mount Zeil in Australia, Mount Nyangani in Zimbabwe, and a location hidden somewhere within the Pyrenees Mountains that separate Spain and France. Buchanan stated that remote viewing data collected over the years suggested each facility served a distinct purpose within what appeared to be a larger extraterrestrial network.
According to his account, one of the locations was allegedly involved in intelligence-gathering activities, while another reportedly functioned as an arrival point for unidentified craft entering Earth’s atmosphere. He further claimed that at least one site appeared to be dedicated to the maintenance and repair of advanced vehicles believed to originate from beyond our planet.

Perhaps the most startling claim concerned Mount Hayes in Alaska. Buchanan described reports from earlier remote viewers indicating that the alleged installation was concealed deep within the mountain itself. Rather than being staffed in a conventional sense, he said the facility appeared to operate largely through automated systems and advanced technologies beyond current human understanding.
The Stargate Project, which operated during the Cold War era, investigated whether psychic phenomena such as remote viewing could be used for intelligence gathering. Participants claimed they could mentally perceive distant locations, events, or objects without physically being present. Although the program attracted significant government interest for years, mainstream scientific evaluations later questioned the reliability of its findings.
Buchanan also referenced the work of fellow remote viewers Pat Price and Joe McMoneagle, both of whom became well-known figures within the Stargate program. According to Buchanan, reports generated by these individuals described encounters that went even further than hidden alien facilities. He claimed they observed situations in which humans and extraterrestrial beings appeared to be working together inside some of the alleged installations.
Such statements have fueled speculation among UFO researchers who believe secret cooperation between governments and non-human intelligences may have been occurring behind closed doors for decades. Skeptics, however, point out that extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence and note that none of the allegations presented by Buchanan have been independently verified.

Researchers examining the claims emphasize that no publicly available photographs, documents, satellite imagery, or physical evidence have been produced to confirm the existence of the alleged bases. While the stories continue to fascinate audiences interested in UFO mysteries, experts caution that remote viewing remains a highly controversial subject lacking widespread scientific acceptance.
Nevertheless, Buchanan’s comments have sparked renewed discussion across social media platforms and UFO communities worldwide. Supporters argue that the consistency of reports emerging from multiple remote viewers over several decades deserves further investigation. Critics counter that anecdotal accounts alone are insufficient to establish the existence of hidden extraterrestrial installations.
As interest in unidentified anomalous phenomena continues to grow, claims such as these ensure that the mystery surrounding possible alien activity on Earth remains very much alive. Whether the mountains named by Buchanan conceal extraordinary secrets or simply represent another chapter in the long history of UFO lore remains unanswered. For now, the alleged alien bases of Alaska, Australia, Zimbabwe, and the Pyrenees continue to exist in the realm of speculation—captivating believers while challenging skeptics to separate possibility from proof.
