A top investigative journalist is sounding the alarm over what he calls an “absurd” amount of UFO-related evidence allegedly being hidden by the Pentagon. Michael Shellenberger, a well-known reporter and whistleblower advocate, claims that a classified U.S. defense initiative—reportedly known as “Immaculate Constellation”—has been systematically collecting and concealing significant photographic, video, and sensor-based data on Unidentified Aerial Phenomena (UAPs) for years.
In a recent interview on Elizabeth Vargas Reports, Shellenberger revealed that multiple government insiders and whistleblowers, including former intelligence contractor Matthew Brown, have come forward with details about the secret program. According to their testimonies, the data held by this initiative is far more extensive than the limited clips the public has seen released by the Department of Defense in recent years.
“We’re not talking about a few shaky videos,” said Shellenberger. “This program allegedly has access to a massive archive of high-quality photos, videos, radar data, and infrared sensor readings. The scale of what’s being hidden is staggering.”
Less Than 1% of the Data Made Public
Shellenberger estimates that less than one percent of the total information gathered by the Pentagon on UFOs has been released to the public. The vast majority remains classified, hidden behind heavily redacted documents and opaque bureaucratic channels.
He described a pattern of excessive secrecy, even pointing to declassified files where potential explanations for UAP incidents are redacted entirely—leaving only vague references and blacked-out blocks of text.
“We, the taxpayers, funded this research,” Shellenberger emphasized. “And yet, even Congress has been blocked from seeing the full picture. That’s not only wrong—it’s a potential violation of the Constitution.”
Bipartisan Push for Transparency
What makes this case especially notable is the rare bipartisan unity among U.S. lawmakers demanding answers. Congressional hearings on UAPs have drawn packed audiences and growing support from both Democrats and Republicans who are pressing for more transparency.
Shellenberger, who has testified before Congress, noted that lawmakers are increasingly frustrated by the Pentagon’s reluctance to share information—even with oversight committees.
“This isn’t a fringe issue anymore,” he said. “When rooms are filled for UAP hearings and members of both parties are united in calling for answers, it’s clear that the public sentiment has shifted.”
A Turning Point in the Disclosure Movement?
The revelations about “Immaculate Constellation” and the sheer scale of the alleged hidden data may represent a turning point in the ongoing push for UFO disclosure. The call for transparency is no longer limited to civilian researchers and enthusiasts—it’s now a serious matter being debated at the highest levels of government.
Shellenberger believes it’s time for executive leadership to respond to public and congressional pressure.
“This is about trust, transparency, and accountability. People are no longer content with scraps. They want—and deserve—the full story.”
Whether the Pentagon will yield to that pressure remains to be seen. But with mounting evidence and growing political interest, the mystery surrounding UAPs may be closer to unraveling than ever before.
