Ross Coulthart Q&A: Whistleblowers, 'Manhattan Project 2.0' and China Lake
"My understanding is that the legacy program has made quite a number of breakthroughs. Particularly on propulsion and energy systems... what I'm hearing from people in the program is that there are insufficient scientists to do the kind of work that's needed, particularly to get breakthroughs on materials science."
Contradicting speculation by physicist Eric Weinstein that UAP reverse engineering has stalled due to lack of elite scientists, Coulthart reports sources inside the legacy program claim significant breakthroughs have occurred in propulsion and energy systems. However, materials science progress has been hampered by insufficient expertise and lack of collaboration with European scientists who lead in that field, with Americans allegedly hoarding program access from allies.
