The second closest habitable exoplanet, Ross 128b, resides in the constellation of Virgo—or the “immaculate constellation.” In 2017 the Arecibo Observatory detected strange radio signals likely originating from the Ross 128 star system.

This tweet by wlcm2int_times presents one hypothesis as to the naming of the much-discussed “Immaculate Constellation” UAP program: that the term could refer to the constellation of Virgo (virgin, immaculate), especially since there is a close habitable exo-planet in that constellation and the Arecibo Observatory has detected strange radio signals coming from its system in 2017.
