BIOGRAPHY

CREDIBILITY ASSESSMENT

Tenured physics professor with peer-reviewed UAP publications and prior NASA experience. His estimates have been challenged on parallax and sensor-interpretation grounds, but the work is the kind of quantitative analysis the field has long lacked.

NOTABLE CONTRIBUTIONS (2)

'Estimating Flight Characteristics of Anomalous Unidentified Aerial Vehicles'

Co-authored 2019 paper in Entropy applying Bayesian inference to publicly available UAP sensor data, calculating accelerations on the order of thousands of g for several Navy-recorded incidents.

2019foundational

UAP physics conference advocacy

Has presented UAP work at the AIAA and SCU annual conferences, normalizing peer-reviewed engagement with the topic.

TIMELINE (3)

1996-2001career

NASA Ames research scientist

Works on intelligent data analysis and signal processing.

2005career

Joins SUNY Albany faculty

Begins academic career in physics, focusing on information theory and Bayesian inference.

2019media

Publishes UAP flight-characteristics paper

First peer-reviewed quantitative analysis of military UAP sensor data.

KEY QUOTES (1)

If we accept the publicly available data at face value, we are looking at flight characteristics that violate everything we know about aerospace engineering.
