Edgar Mitchell stunned British radio listeners by saying that Aliens have contacted Earth. What is most surprising about his revelations are his credentials. Edgar Mitchell is a former NASA scientist and astronaut.

Mitchell says that the aliens mean no harm and are not hostile to man's interests.

"If they were, we'd be gone by now," Dr Mitchell said. "Our technology is not nearly as sophisticated".

Later on the show, he said he was sure we had been visited, up to as many as 60 years ago.

"I've been in military and intelligence circles who know we have been visited," said Mitchell.

Edgar Mitchell was the lunar module pilot of Apollo 14. Mitchell spent 9 hours moonwalking on February 9th. 1971.

NASA issued a statement saying they did not agree with Dr. Mitchell's comments.
