University at Albany (SUNY)

The University at Albany (SUNY), founded in 1844 in the United States, is an academic institution leading UAP/UFO research. Key activities include UAlbany Project X (UAPx), launched in December 2025 with a major endowment from businessman Tony Gorman, focusing on rigorous scientific study using radar, radiation detectors, multispectral cameras, AI, and peer-reviewed analysis. Professors Kevin Knuth, Matthew Szydagis, and Cecilia Levy lead efforts, building on 2021 California expeditions documented in Progress in Aerospace Sciences (June 2025) and collaborations with Navy veterans. Notable achievements: field-tested methods explaining most anomalies, publications drawing congressional attention, and media features like Netflix’s Encounters. Currently active, it joins elite programs at Harvard and others worldwide.
