SpaceX CEO Elon Musk has said that the UFOs that are flying around the United States are likely not extraterrestrials, but the U.S. government's secret “new weapons program.” I'm thinking.
Musk, 53, revealed in an interview that he has “not seen any evidence of aliens” while heading a space exploration technology company. tucker carlson on monday.
Musk acknowledged that there are “a lot of things we don't know” about humanity and the existence of the universe. “Where did we come from? Where are the aliens?”
The billionaire said that although there are “over 6,000 satellites” in orbit, he has “never had to maneuver around an alien spacecraft.”
SpaceX has more than 6,300 active Starlink satellites in low Earth orbit as of September 2024, according to the nonprofit satellite tracking group. celes truck.
Carlson, 55, then asked why there were reports on the planet that the U.S. military had to do “a lot of maneuvering around unexplained objects.”
“Well, unidentified flying objects are a different story, but there are always a number of classified programs going on,” Musk said.
The technology mogul said the government is likely regularly testing “new aircraft, new missiles, etc.” at such a high level of secrecy that even those higher up the U.S. military chain of command are unaware. It is claimed that it has been done. Tested.
“Some pilots see something moving fast and say, 'Hey, I saw a UFO!'” It could be a weapons program.
But Musk has “guaranteed” that if he finds evidence of aliens, he won't share that information with the public.
“The moment we find any traces of aliens, we immediately post them on the X platform,” he said. “This will probably be our number one post of all time.”
In 2023, Musk hopes the green gnomes are real and, more importantly, friendly, but he doesn't believe the government is hiding the existence of extraterrestrial life from the public. He said he did not.
He argued that if governments knew about the existence of aliens, they would demonize them in order to easily greenlight military spending.
There have been no recent alien sightings by military personnel, but extraterrestrial life has been confirmed. government report Starting in 2023, Congress requires the Department of Defense to investigate UFO files dating back to the end of World War II.
The Office of the Director of National Intelligence investigated 366 newly confirmed military sightings of “unidentified aerial phenomena” (the Pentagon's term for UFOs).
Of those, 26 were determined to be drones, 163 were identified as “balloons or balloon-like objects,” and six were found to be “caused by scattering” in the air.
Last fall, the Department of Defense launched a new portal where current and former military personnel, government employees, and contractors can report UFO sightings.
The Department of Defense investigated nearly 300 UFO sightings between April 31, 2022 and April 30, 2023.
Some of these objects exhibited “performance characteristics” such as high speeds and “unusual maneuverability,” the report said.
However, the report states that “none of these UAP reports are actively attributable to foreign activity.”
Last month, New York State Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand said Congress would soon receive an update on UFOs from the Department of Defense.
Gillibrand, who chairs the U.S. Senate Armed Services Subcommittee on Emerging Threats and Capabilities, said this session is “a priority for me.”
The New York state senator is asking for a “progress report on the number of unidentified aerial phenomena we have evaluated and analyzed.”
The Pentagon's All-Domain Anomaly Resolution Office, which investigates UFOs, recently appointed John Kosloski, a national security official with a background in quantum optics and cryptographic mathematics, to head it.
Gillibrand said she expected Kosloski to testify at a hearing, possibly after the Nov. 5 election.
