The case for UAP science | Reality Check

<p>In this episode of &quot;Reality Check,&quot; Ross Coulthart sits down with professor Matthew Szydagis, an astroparticle physicist at the University at Albany SUNY, who was recently appointed to the UAP Science Advisory Council for the White House and federal agencies. Szydagis describes what the council can and cannot do without security clearances, including the more than 50 declassification requests its members have already filed and names the Varginha UFO case as the one he most wants disclosed.</p><p><br></p><p>He walks Coulthart through the energy a Tic Tac maneuver would demand, and why he treats the claim that interstellar distances are too great as a misreading of relativity rather than a limit on visitation. He also gives a detailed account of his ongoing testing of one of the Art&#39;s Parts samples entrusted to him by Tom DeLonge and Hal Puthoff, including the millimeter-scale holes that point toward a human origin. The harassment that followed came not from debunkers but from people who want the sample to be alien, and he says it has been worse than anything skeptics have sent him. </p><p><br></p><p>#UAP #science #declassification </p><p><br></p><p>CREDITS:</p><p>Host: Ross Coulthart</p><p>Executive Producer: Andy Gipson</p><p>Editorial Producer: Meagan Medick</p><p>Associate Producer: Will Tomasi</p><p>Research Producer: Rob Jones</p><p>Editor: Kanyon Lyons</p><p><br></p><p>On &quot;Reality Check,&quot; NewsNation Special Correspondent Ross Coulthart takes a fact-based approach to tackle everything from unidentified aerial phenomena (UAPs) to mysteries often missing from the headlines. </p><p><br></p><p>More Reality Check: https://www.newsnationnow.com/podcasts-newsnation/reality-check-with-ross-coulthart/ </p><p><br></p><p>Email your questions to RealityCheck@NewsNationNow.com </p><p><br></p><p>NewsNation is your source for fact-based, unbiased news for all Americans. </p><p>More from NewsNation: https://www.newsnationnow.com/ </p><p>Get our app: https://trib.al/TBXgYpp </p><p>Find us on your screen: https://www.joinnn.com/</p><p><br></p><p>CHAPTER SUMMARY:</p><p>0:00 Intro</p><p>2:18 Funding UAP Science at Albany</p><p>5:22 Why One Camera Is Never Enough</p><p>17:08 Disclosure From the Bottom Up</p><p>19:17 Inside the Science Advisory Council</p><p>27:17 Stigma and Threats Against Researchers</p><p>30:26 What Catastrophic Disclosure Means</p><p>38:46 Energy From the Quantum Vacuum</p><p>44:54 Evidence Versus Proof</p><p>48:38 Time Dilati
