Default Is it Space threads only this weekend?

Well i saw on the news a few days ago of a Russian Astronaut claiming Aliens are out there hes seen them and the governments have been covering it up for decades.

This one is of a former NASA astronaut.
Astronaut Claims Alien Cover-Up

Quote:
(July 25) - Former NASA astronaut Dr. Edgar Mitchell told a British radio host this week that governments have been covering up contact with aliens for more than six decades, The Daily Telegraph reported.
The 77-year-old veteran of the Apollo 14 mission said, "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."
"It's been well covered up by all our governments for the last 60 years or so," he said, "but slowly it's leaked out and some of us have been privileged to have been briefed on some of it."
Mitchell claimed the infamous 1947 incident in Roswell, N.M., where several people saw an alien spacecraft crash, did in fact happen. The military has said the so-called spacecraft was actually a weather balloon.
NASA quickly downplayed Mitchell’s comments. "Dr. Mitchell is a great American, but we do not share his opinions on this issue," a statement from the space agency read. "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."

Interesting! I heard this on the news as well. I do not know what to think of it. But this I know, if an alien ever tries to probe me, they better buy me dinner first!
