From time to time I come across fun / interesting archival documents. I have decided to start collecting them.
Superpowers: Telekinesis.
This document describes a CIA-led experiment that verifies one man has paranormal abilities of telekinesis. In particular he could heat objects by touching them.
​
Superpowers: Remote viewing
The linked document below is a review by the Federation of American Scientists on programs that verify humans can see objects far away. Sort of like Dr. X in X-men. The report suggests that the estimates of some subjects were accurate beyond what could be determined through random chance. https://irp.fas.org/program/collect/air1995.pdf

UFOs
The linked document is a comprehensive review of classified CIA programs into UFOs. Interestingly, the Soviets and PRC also had dedicated UFO programs and the CIA worked hard to spy on those programs.
