• Kicking off ‘UFO Week’, BLAZE pay television did a survey of 2,000 UK adults on matters concerning extraterrestrials and UFOs. According to the results, 15% of the Brits think the Earth may be ruled by a species from another world by 2040.
• Former Ministry of Defence UFO investigator Nick Pope called it ‘the single-most astounding figure’ in the study. Said Pope, “This is not just the latest probe on Mars finding microbial life, this is full on alien invasion – that’s big.”
• Philip Mantle, director of investigations for the British UFO Research Association, said that contrary to sci fi movies and pop culture, he couldn’t find any information which would supporting an impending alien invasion. Mantle mused philosophically as to why another species would travel all that way to dominate our lowly planet. Or perhaps life on Earth evolved from ancient bacteria brought here from Mars via a meteorite, and the we humans are in fact the aliens from Mars dominating this planet.
• As such, Mantle believes that we would be better served looking at potential meteorite impacts on earth, such as the Tunguska meteor of 1908 in Siberia more than studying NASA’s database of Mars images. “It’s not if we’ll get struck again, it’s when,” says Mantle. “[I]t may be a long time coming, but that’s the kind of thing we should be looking for.”
Earth will be invaded and dominated by aliens in the next 20 years, according to 15%
of Brits.
Ahead of UFO Week kicking off today on BLAZE, the channel carried surveyed 2,000 UK adults on matters concerning extraterrestrials and unidentified aerial phenomena (UAP).
There’s no evidence to suggest the White House will be blown up by aliens anytime soon, nor will we be visited by the shells like those in Arrival. However, come 2040, a large portion of Brits believe we may be ruled by a species from another world.
According to the results, 15% think aliens will dominate the Earth over the next 20 years. Nick Pope, a former Ministry of Defence UFO investigator called it ‘the single-most astounding figure’ in the study.
He told UNILAD: ‘This is not just the latest probe on Mars finding microbial life, this is full on alien invasion – that’s big.’
While accepting the rising interest in UFOs and the surrounding theories could be indebted to pop culture, Pope urged: ‘Let’s get beyond the idea that this is just sci-fi, let’s realise and acknowledge [UAP] for the serious defence issue that it is.’
This was echoed by Philip Mantle, director of investigations for the British UFO Research Association, who said: ‘It does reflect the interest in this thing in popular culture,’ with countless action sci-fi movies, whether it’s Alien, Life, Predator, Cloverfield, Edge of Tomorrow or even the Marvel Cinematic Universe and beyond. ‘There’s not very many nice ones like E.T. and things like that,’ he said.
