Journalist Michael Shellenberger told the House Oversight Committee on Wednesday that Immaculate Constellations, a program run by the U.S. government, has collected decades of still images and video never seen by the public. He testified that there was.
“My understanding is that…this means the database is very large.” shellenberger He testified to Congressman Clay Higgins, Republican of Louisiana. hearing. “It includes not only images, videos, and still images, but also human intelligence, reports, and raw data from individuals who have had these experiences. To answer your question, yes, we have I think we’re looking at a huge amount of data that has been collected.”
Shellenberger said the program was run out of the Department of Defense (DOD) but was “held” at the White House.
Shellenberger too Published Whistleblower report revealing the existence of the program. According to the report, the U.S. government has documented numerous cases of unidentified anomalous phenomena (UAPs) of various anomalous forms unrelated to known human artifacts.

“On the USG network there is thermal footage and imagery of a group of vessels engaged in SIGINT. [signals intelligence] and MASINT [measurement and signature intelligence] “Collection occurs at night in certain areas of the Pacific Ocean,” the report said. “In this footage taken very close to the vessel, a large equilateral triangular UAP suddenly appears directly above the vessel. Three bright dots can be seen in each lower corner of the UAP, slowly rotating around a horizontal axis. It is observed that (Related: American aviator who leaked confidential Ukrainian documents sentenced to 15 years in prison)
Aircraft carrier flight crew spotted In another instance, a “spherical UAP” was seen floating around the ship, according to the report.
“The flight deck crew on duty observed a small orange-red sphere maneuvering at high altitude over the CVN,” the report said.
The report also notes that the crew’s perception of time was distorted when near the ship.
“The UAP maintained altitude for an uncertain period and matched speed with the ongoing CVN. Observers reported altered perception of time during the close encounter,” the report said. states. “The UAP appeared to be emitting a soft orange-red light, but strangely enough, despite visually appearing to be of strong brightness, It didn’t light up.”
Another hearing witness, former Pentagon official Luis Elizondo, said he had received reports of similar behavior by UAPs while at the Pentagon, which he described as “stalking.”
Elizondo told Republican Florida Rep. Anna Paulina Luna that “in a highly secure email between naval officers they were discussing that their ship was being tracked by drones. “I saw the word ‘stalking’ being used,” he testified.
Retired Navy Rear Admiral Tim Gallaudet described an incident in the 1980s in which an unknown surface craft pursued a nuclear-powered submarine.
“The only example that has been revealed to me is that in the 80s, with nuclear submarines and ballistic missile submarines, the objects showed characteristics of Russian torpedoes in terms of speed of movement and speed of approach with the submarine. fell,” Gallaudet reported. “We then slowly followed the submarine’s wake for several minutes, rapidly exciting the scene.”
A U.S. nuclear-powered attack submarine is seen moored alongside the salvage ship USS Conserver (ARS-39) off Stonecutters Island in Hong Kong’s Victoria Harbor on December 30, 1981.
Elizondo said the UAPs also showed signs of “communication” and intent, and in many cases the UAPs appeared to be hostile.
“We’re seeing these things over U.S. controlled airspace, and they’re not hiding very well,” Elizondo said. “They’ve made it pretty clear that they have the ability to interfere with our nuclear rights and even our nuclear preparedness.”
When asked, all four witnesses were unsure about the origins of these ships, and three were convinced that they were intelligent and non-human.
“Given the diversity of life on this planet and the vastness of this universe, it is not unreasonable to think that there may be a greater variety of higher-order non-human intelligences throughout the universe. Hmm, and that’s probably what it is.” He came to visit us,” Gallaudet said.
“The definition would be the ability to respond to stimuli in a way that requires an intelligent thought process,” Elizondo argued.
“Artificial intelligence, ML [machine learning]a machine,” said former NASA administrator Michael Gold.
“I have no idea,” Shellenberger said.
After UAP reports came to public attention in 2023, Congress added the Unidentified Anomalous Phenomenon Disclosure Act of 2023 to the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2024. Final version of the amendment Required The government called for establishing a UAP Records Collection and Review Office, but many of the bill’s original provisions were missing, such as requiring a government-wide independent review board and an independent disclosure process.
