Too much Tang?

FORMER NASA astronaut and moon-walker Dr Edgar Mitchell - a veteran of the Apollo 14 mission - has stunningly claimed aliens exist.

And he says extra-terrestrials have visited Earth on several occasions - but the alien contact has been repeatedly covered up by governments for six decades.

Dr Mitchell, 77, said during a radio interview that sources at the space agency who had had contact with aliens described the beings as 'little people who look strange to us.'

He said supposedly real-life ET's were similar to the traditional image of a small frame, large eyes and head.

Chillingly, he claimed our technology is "not nearly as sophisticated" as theirs and "had they been hostile", he warned "we would be been gone by now".

Dr Mitchell, along with with Apollo 14 commander Alan Shepard, holds the record for the longest ever moon walk, at nine hours and 17 minutes following their 1971 mission.

"I happen to have been privileged enough to be in on the fact that we've been visited on this planet and the UFO phenomena is real," Dr Mitchell said.

"It's been well covered up by all our governments for the last 60 years or so, but slowly it's leaked out and some of us have been privileged to have been briefed on some of it.


Officials from NASA, however, were quick to play the comments down.

In a statement, a spokesman said: "NASA does not track UFOs. NASA is not involved in any sort of cover up about alien life on this planet or anywhere in the universe.

'Dr Mitchell is a great American, but we do not share his opinions on this issue.'

That bit is quite funny. How were they supposed to get here? Fired out of a giant cannon or dropped off by a large, interstellar yo-yo?

This also makes me think about the psychology behind technology. We advance to prevent another from killing us quicker, rather than to live better.

That's not the psychology this story makes me think about.

You're going to try to convince me that the moon isn't hollow, aren't you?

Too obvious?

Hey - I was interested enough to click the link!

You have to admit the source is funny though... come on RR - you know it is.

My girlfrien and I play a game. Each day we find the stoopidest daily mail artcle - it's not much of a challenge. But it's fun.

hoax.

I knew it.



Aliens knocked down WTC7.



It's all so clear now.

If you personally haven't seen certain things, it must mean that they do not exist. Like atoms.
