NASA scientist says aliens exist!
This Kerrang! radio interview (no, hold on, stay with me!) with Edgar Mitchell, Astronaught and scientist (6th Man on the moon) works wonders on about a hundred levels!
The real joy though, is not that a man with 'apparently' high-level clearance to NASA intelligence is telling us with 'authority' that aliens not only definitely exist, but also that we have been visited on numerous occasions, but the reactions of the Kerrang! DJ Nick Margerrison - check out about 25 seconds in when Edgar Mitchell drops his insider bombshell - the next 30 seconds are gold; then at 2mins 45 - again "I just want to check I've not stumbled upon astronaught humour and you're going to tell me later you're pulling my leg!"
NASA have been pretty clear in their response that they do not share Dr Mitchell's views but, by crikey, this is still an amazing scoop. the Kerrang! team must have soiled their pants every-which-way when this was happening! Radio GOLD!!!
The interviewer Nick keeps it together quite well after his initial plunge into flabbergasted incredulity, and even draws towards the conclusion that the world is perhaps being gradually readied for the big disclosure that we are, indeed, not alone in the galaxy. He sites the recent release from the Vatican that it is not heresy for Catholics to believe in aliens
.
But then, read about Edgar Mitchell and you'll start to see that his views and scientific studies are kinda left-field fruity, and always have been; apparently he conducted private (non-NASA) ESP experiments while he was on space missions.
Personally, I believe there simply must be alien life out there in the universe; after all every star is a sun setting somewhere. However, I'm not sure I believe in the whole Roswell / Area 51 conspiracy thing either. Seems all too unlikely. Plus, NASA's budget would be enormous if we had had contact with other 'alien' races, but then again - maybe these figures tell us that they've quietly been busy all along...?
