Edgar Mitchell, 77, the renowned former NASA astronaut who holds the record for the longest moonwalk of 9 hours, 17 minutes during the 1971 Apollo 14 mission, is a hero among alien-believers and claims they are already here. Mitchell claims he has unimpeachable sources that aliens have been visiting for some time and governments around the world are keeping quiet.

He suggests that there would be mass panic and people might lose confidence in such things as the security of oil supply and the global banking system.
 
Mitchell stated last week on a West Midlands radio station that the “Roswell Incident” of 1947, when a spaceship supposedly crashed in New Mexico, really occurred.

The U.S. military says the “craft” was an experimental weather balloon.  A vast conspiracy sub-culture has grown around Roswell, creating books, documentaries, movies and a disbelief in government explanations. 
Joe Firmage, a Silicon Valley software entrepreneur, has spent millions of dollars on UFO research notes, "Within six months of Roswell, the CIA was formed, the National Security Act was passed, Harry Truman launched an official investigation into the UFO phenomenon, and the air force was separated from the army."

"And then all these technological advances started spilling out of the military-industrial complex - semiconductors, microwaves, lasers, fibre optics, vertical take-off capability. Is that all coincidence?"
