Joining us this week on The Micah Hanks Program to discuss the exciting news are two of the project's lead scientists, Dr. Kevin Knuth and Dr. Matthew Szydagis, who discuss the \"rebirth\" of the original UAPx initiative as a fully funded UAP investigation backed by the University of Albany. Where will the team's future studies of anomalous phenomena in our skies take us in the years ahead? Have you had a UFO/UAP sighting? Please consider reporting your sighting to the UAP Sightings Reporting System, a public resource for information about sightings of aerial phenomena.
