Imagine a scientist who spends their career studying human perception and memory, then turns their attention to UFOs and alien abductions. That's what Don Donderi, a psychology professor from McGill University, did. He's been curious about UFOs since he was a kid and has even consulted on high-profile UFO cases.

Donderi isn't just any scientist; he's got a PhD and a long list of research papers to his name. He started getting serious about UFOs in the late 1960s when he worked with a U. S. group called NICAP. They were looking into cases where people claimed to have seen aliens. In the 1990s, when stories of alien abductions were all the rage, Donderi helped design a poll to find out how common these experiences might be. He also worked on a test to tell real abduction stories from made-up ones.

But why does this matter? Well, Donderi brings a unique perspective to the UFO debate. He's not just a believer or a skeptic; he's a scientist who wants to understand what's really going on. He's not afraid to ask tough questions and look at the evidence with a critical eye. So, the next time you hear a story about aliens, remember that there are people like Donderi who are trying to make sense of it all.
