From LZ to UAP: A Data-Driven, Collaborative Perspective on Experimental Physics

Can UFOs Bend Space-Time? Physicist Explains

Experimental physicist Dr Matthew Szydagis joins That UFO Podcast to bring a scientific lens to the UFO and UAP conversation. Matthew is an Associate Professor at the University at Albany, SUNY, working in particle astrophysics, dark matter detection and rare-event detector technology. He also works with UAPx and the Scientific Coalition for UAP Studies, helping bring a rigorous, data-led approach to the study of UAP. In this conversation, we discuss what dark matter research can teach us about investigating difficult-to-detect phenomena, what good UAP evidence should look like, why multiple camera angles and sensor data matter, and whether the current UFO files releases move the subject forward. We also get into anti-gravity, exotic propulsion, zero-point energy, time travel, missing time, interdimensional theories, Bob Lazar, scientific stigma, and the upcoming SCU Conference 2026. Can science separate the signal from the noise in the UFO conversation?
