Ezra Kelderman: Galileo Project | EXOQUEST Archives

Описание: EXOQUEST Archives: The science-based search for interstellar artifacts and the origins of the universe.

We sit down with Ezra Kelman, Project Manager for Project Galileo at the Harvard Center for Astrophysics. While mainstream SETI listens for signals, Project Galileo looks for physical objects and anomalous technosignatures within our solar system and atmosphere.

NOTE: This previously unreleased EXOQUEST interview was taped late 2024, prior to Project Galileo's new observatory in Las Vegas.

Ezra details the rigorous scientific pipeline built to differentiate between "known" human technology and truly anomalous phenomena. We go beyond the "what" and deep-dive into the HOW: from the constraints of infrared optics and the necessity of triangulation to the AI models being trained to filter out birds, balloons, and "leaf sightings."

KEY TOPICS COVERED:

The Foundation: Why Project Galileo was formed at Harvard following the 2021 Pentagon report.

The Targets: Interstellar objects (like 'Oumuamua), interstellar meteors, and Near-Earth UAP.

The Tech Stack: Multimodal detection using infrared, visible optics, passive radar, and acoustics.

The Methodology: How triangulation provides the kinematics (speed, size, altitude) needed to prove new physics.

Open Science: The drive to publish peer-reviewed data and invite global academic collaboration.

Curious. Rigorous. Unafraid.
