That UFO Podcast · Dr Matthew Szydagis: UFOs, Dark Matter & The Science of UAP · 12 May 2026 podcast

I definitely am.

I mean, that's why I became a scientist.

I became a scientist to have my worldview challenged, not to have it confirmed repeatedly.

So that's an excellent point.

But we can't paint everybody with one brush.

Remember, I mean, there's me here talking to, and also my colleagues like Kevin and Cecilia here at UAlbany, and lots of colleagues I've met through, you know, UAPIAT's SCU, you know, that is having this conference in Toronto in July.

Like, there are people...

Open-minded people out there, so we shouldn't paint all, you know, even academics or PhD scientists with the same brush.

But you are right that there's kind of like an old guard, a conservative old guard always.

But there's another reason, potentially, maybe patience.

Some discoveries take time.

So it took a long time, for example, to discover gravitational waves.

And dark matter has been taken a long time.

And I've been made fun of.

by dark matter skeptics.

They're like, oh, you told us it was supposed to be discovered 20 years ago.

Well, I didn't say that.

I was a kid.

You know what I mean?

Like I was in college.
