Analysis of allegations about secret UAP-related programs, their strategic impact, and the scientific and geopolitical stakes in 2024.
Recent testimony to the US Congress claims that secret programs such as “Immaculate Constellation” have been accumulating data on unidentified aerial phenomena (UAPs) for decades. These programs reportedly include the recovery of debris and the analysis of non-human technologies. Experts criticize the lack of hard evidence and transparency, while scientists conduct independent research to unravel these mysteries.
UAP allegations: between advanced technologies and lack of evidence
Congressional testimony in November 2024 highlighted the alleged existence of the “Immaculate Constellation” program, whose role would be to collect data and artifacts linked to UAPs. The objects analyzed were said to display extraordinary characteristics: speeds in excess of 72,000 km/h and accelerations in excess of 2,000 G, well beyond human capabilities.
However, no material evidence has been presented to corroborate these claims. The Pentagon and AARO have denied the existence of this program, or any evidence of extraterrestrial origin. This controversy raises a crucial question: did these alleged technologies originate from other civilizations, or simply from adversary military programs?
Strategic consequences of such a “technology race”
If these assertions are correct, they imply a multi-decade technological race between great powers. The United States and its adversaries would seek to recover, analyze and reproduce these advanced technologies. The military implications are obvious: such an advantage could transform the geopolitical balance of power.
By way of example, the US defense budget is set to exceed 800 billion euros by 2024, a growing share of which is allocated to research into new technologies. China, with an estimated budget of €200 billion, is also investing in advanced intelligence systems. If such programs exist, they could justify this astronomical expenditure.
The limits of scientific evidence
Scientists like Avi Loeb, director of the Galileo Project at Harvard, call for greater rigor. According to him, testimonies are not enough without tangible proof. Loeb’s team recently collected data on 500,000 aerial objects and recovered debris from an interstellar meteor in the Pacific Ocean, without confirming an extraterrestrial origin.
The scientific method contrasts with governmental approaches: data transparency, public analysis and independent validation are essential to distinguish fact from speculation.
Economic and scientific stakes of recovered technologies
If advanced technologies are indeed recovered, their impact would extend beyond the military domain. The aeronautics, energy and communications sectors could see major advances. For example, propulsion systems capable of hypersonic speeds could revolutionize transportation, drastically reducing journey times.
The global aeronautics market, valued at 360 billion euros in 2024, could be turned upside down by breakthroughs inspired by UAPs. Innovations in materials and energy systems could also have civilian applications.
Transparency is the key to progress
The debates in Congress highlight a growing demand for transparency. Citizens and researchers alike are demanding answers to the mysteries surrounding UAPs. Yet governments are reluctant to reveal sensitive information, citing reasons of national security.
In this context, independent initiatives such as the Galileo Project play a crucial role. By openly sharing their results, these projects enhance scientific credibility and provide the public with a better understanding of these phenomena.
Allegations surrounding UAPs and secret programs such as “Immaculate Constellation” raise complex questions. While some information remains speculative, they highlight the importance of rigorous research and increased transparency. Whether these phenomena are extraterrestrial or terrestrial in origin, their study could transform our understanding of current technologies and geopolitical dynamics.
