Space itself is a distortion; intergalactic travel must be accomplished through mental and psychological mobility.

空间本身是一种扭曲,星系间旅行需以精神与心理机动性完成。

This program treats the Seth Material as a source of hypotheses, not as doctrine to be validated. Lead dossiers are AI-compiled from the corpus with a book-and-session citation after every statement; literature reviews are AI web-search summaries whose references were all DOI-verified against Crossref; the agenda draft is an AI synthesis. None of it is Seth's original text, and none of it represents scientific consensus. English fields are machine-translated; the Chinese text is authoritative.

Adjudicating experiment
At present, intergalactic psychical travel cannot be directly tested: one must clarify whether travel means physical displacement, information acquisition, or subjective experience. A preliminary test could involve 100 participants, 100 trials each, double-blind hidden-target identification, randomized targets, no feedback, independent scoring, replicated by a second laboratory, duration 12-18 months; this only tests information acquisition under controlled conditions. Physical travel must provide independent positioning, mass, and time records; subjective far-travel reports cannot substitute.
Suggested paper title
A Preregistered Multisite Test of Information Acquisition from Spatially Separated Hidden Targets
What it would overturn
If controlled information transmission across space-like separated events is confirmed, it would challenge the assumption that controlled information propagation is constrained by relativistic causal structure.

Specificity of Seth's formulation
Specifies mental ability and galactic scale, but lacks target, time, speed, or information criteria; superluminal prediction cannot be necessarily derived from the original text.
Note
Whether space is emergent is not equivalent to psychical travel being valid; if one additionally explicitly claims that physical or signal can travel arbitrarily faster than light, that version conflicts with established relativistic constraints, but the original sentence is not sufficient for such a direct characterization.
