This is the opposite outcome of one of my friends advisors. We went to the Roswell UFO museum as a lark. And one of the info panels said “this is potential alien metal panels, analyzed by a scientist, Dr. So and So” and we told the professor, who got really angry. “I said that I would look at what they had and it was all flattened pieces of beer cans, I told them not to associate me with this nonsense!”
