Elon Musk has addressed whether he has ever come across aliens during his extensive ventures in space exploration and satellite launches.
The question of whether we are alone in the universe has been a topic of intrigue for years.
Speculation abounds regarding the implications for humanity if extraterrestrial life is confirmed, and it’s likely to differ greatly from the alien encounters depicted in movies like Close Encounters of the Third Kind.
While numerous predictions have been made by scientists and psychics about when aliens might reveal themselves, Musk, for his part, claims he hasn’t seen any evidence of them.
His work with SpaceX keeps him deeply involved with space-related activities.
During an appearance on Peter Diamandis’ podcast, Moonshots, available on YouTube as of January 6, the conversation turned to the question of alien existence.
Musk disclosed that he frequently receives questions about alien existence and dismissed popular conspiracy theories suggesting that governments are hiding knowledge of aliens from the public.
He remarked, “I’m asked all the time… and I’m like, look, if I were aware of the slightest evidence of aliens, I would immediately post it on X.
“Because it would be the most viewed post of all time.”
Diamandis posed the question of whether Americans would pause their daily activities or return to their routines, such as watching sports, the day after such a revelation. Musk humorously responded: “I think everyone would want to see the alien, if you got one. Here it is.
“That is a fast way to increase the military budget, like, yeah, we found an alien, it seems dangerous.
“They don’t have an incentive to hide the aliens; they have an incentive to show the aliens because they would not have any more arguments about the military budget if they seem a little bit dangerous.
“We have got 9,000 satellites up there, we have never had to maneuver around an alien spaceship…yet.”
A segment of his remarks was shared on X, where Musk then quote-tweeted to confirm his position, stating simply: “Yup.”
This discussion follows recent reports that UK agents were allegedly tasked with securing UFO technology after an unknown aircraft caused concern, according to newly released documents.
Reports from 1997 describe sightings of ‘large, silent, low-flying black triangles’ that appeared to surpass the capabilities of known aircraft, including hovering for extended periods, rapid acceleration, and eluding military jets.
