Tony Gorman

Tony Gorman is a longtime businessman from New York's Capital Region, founder of The Gorman Group. Inspired by a local news story on University at Albany (UAlbany) physicists investigating unidentified aerial phenomena (UAPs) using scientific methods like weather radar, radiation detectors, and AI, he made a substantial endowment gift to fund their research. This donation supports professors Kevin Knuth, Matthew Szydagis, and Cecilia Levy, who have published UAP studies from California experiments attracting congressional and scientific attention. Gorman's funding launches UAlbany Project X (UAPx), a new academic initiative for rigorous UAP research, partnering with a federal nonprofit by Navy veterans. It positions UAlbany among elite universities like Harvard in legitimate UAP science, aiming for data-driven answers on aerial and underwater anomalies.
