This is a fish swimming. On the left, there's a cylinder with water rushing past it, creating turbulent eddies called vortices that the fish can't see, but they can feel. In nature, fish swim in turbulent flows, and they surf on these vortices. Now only if this fish were alive. But it's not. It's dead. How then is this fish swimming? The vortices generated from the cylinder provide the energy. The water swims the dead fish. I'm a professor at the University of Florida, a biomechanist and neuroscientist, and ...

Project Overview - The Galileo Project is a scientific endeavor aimed at exploring the possibility of extraterrestrial life, distinct from government investigations driven by national security concerns [5][30] - The project utilizes artificial intelligence to scan the sky for UAP, sharing all findings openly [1] - The project has established the first Galileo observatory, testing instruments with plans for hundreds of copies in multiple locations [7] Technology and Methodology - The project employs a network of cameras and specialized sensors recording the entire sky 24/7 [7] - AI software is built from scratch to filter out known objects and identify anomalies [8] - Instrumentation monitors the entire electromagnetic spectrum, focusing on objects within the atmosphere [18] - Over five months, approximately half a million objects were collected and reconstructed with a 95% confidence level [24] UAP and National Security - The US government released a report confirming over 140 sightings of unidentified aerial phenomena in 2021 [3] - Congress has elevated UAP to a top national security concern, with sightings being routine but under-reported [26] - The US Department of Defense announced the Gremlin Project, similar to The Galileo Project but closed source [28] Scientific and Academic Perspective - The Galileo Project seeks to bring scientific rigor to UAP research, challenging the stigma and promoting open investigation [14][25] - The project is open source, publishing all findings in peer-reviewed papers [29][30]
