"Dark matter" refers to observed/inferred gravitational effects; a new particle is one unconfirmed explanation.
Yet nobody says dark matter particles are "Santa Claus" just because they have not been proved.

The US and Egypt have maintained a close but quiet military relationship for some time. US AFRICOM operates multiple aircraft types in the region and routinely transits Egyptian airspace in cooperation/coordination with the Egyptian government...
The analogy fails because studying UAPs does not mean assuming the conclusion.

The point of scientific study is precisely to determine whether any...

Scientists are interested in Mars. Mars exists.
Scientists are interested in faraway planets. Faraway planets exist.
Scientists are interested in people who believe in UFOs. People exist.

With the note that, before cameras were so ubiquitous, when it was not to be expected that a Very Close Encounter UFO report might have pictures, there were reports of UFOs getting very close. Sometimes even disgorging occupants to outer about...
