Russell Targ (born April 11, 1934) is an American physicist, parapsychologist, and author. Targ joined Stanford Research Institute (SRI) in 1972, where he and Harold E. Puthoff coined the term "remote viewing" for the practice of seeking impressions about a distant or unseen target using parapsychological means. Later, he worked with Puthoff on the US Defense Intelligence Agency's Stargate Project. Targ's work on remote viewing has been characterized as pseudoscience and has also been criticized for lack of rigor.
