Govt covering existence of alien life, ex-NASA scientists claims

Former NASA scientist has published an article calling for the scientific community to thoroughly examine evidence of UFOs on Earth.

The article was published just a few days before July 2, which is World UFO Day.

Kevin Knuth, a physics professor at the State University of New York (SUNY) at Albany, describes two personal stories about the speculation of extraterrestrials.

The first came at a 2002 NASA conference when a participant said, “You have absolutely no idea what is out there!”

The second story occurred when Knuth was a grad student in 1988. When his physics professor said that UFOs were shooting down nuclear missiles from the Air Force, Knuth didn’t believe it. Years later, he saw a recording of a press conference with Air Force officials describing occurrences just like that.

Knuth believes that there is a good chance that there are aliens and there is some evidence to support that theory.

He estimates that there could potentially be as many as tens of thousands of intelligent civilizations in the galaxy.

Despite the age of the galaxy, there is largely no disputed evidence of an encounter with UFOs. Knuth believes that this information has been covered up by many governments and that there are enough pieces of evidence that should open a scientific study.

He also believes that the topic of UFOs is considered to be taboo in the scientific community, with many organizations finding excuses for various UFO sightings. For example, there are times when the weather or human activities are excuses for aliens sightings.

The result is that UFOs are largely not included as a possibility for scientific study and discussions.
