Project Meridian
Project Meridian is a 120-day Pentagon initiative announced on September 30, 2026, to study future warfare and identify critical technology needed for U.S. military dominance.
• Leadership: The project is overseen by Pentagon Chief Technology Officer Emil Michael. It is co-led by tech figures and policy experts Elon Musk, Palmer Luckey, and Newt Gingrich.
• Core Focus: The initiative examines future operational environments across a wide spectrum—from subterranean depths to cislunar space (the region between Earth and the Moon).
• Target Technologies: It evaluates advancements in artificial intelligence (AI), autonomous systems, robotics, directed energy, and biotechnology.
• Timeline: A final unclassified report (with a classified annex) is required within 120 days, setting a completion deadline of late January 2027.
