Officials from the Pentagon have laid bare the possibility of an alien mothership visiting our solar system and directing probes to Earth, much like NASA have been doing when studying other planets.
In a draft research report released on March 7 and drafted by the United States Department of Defense’s All-Domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO) director, Sean Kirkpatrick and Avi Loeb, the chairman of Harvard University’s astronomy department, they have suggested that there could be a large craft out in space, monitoring our planet, reports the Daily Star.
They wrote: “An artificial interstellar object could potentially be a parent craft that releases many small probes during its close passage to Earth, an operational construct. These ‘dandelion seeds’ could be separated from the parent craft by the tidal gravitational force of the Sun or by a manoeuvring capability.”
