Ex-NASA Astronaut Reckons Aliens Do Exist And Humans Are Fucked

Ex-NASA Astronaut Reckons Aliens Do Exist And Humans Are Fucked

ALIENS ARE COMING AND LIFE ON EARTH IS GOING TO DIE OUT!

Now, I know what you're thinking, we get these sort of warnings all the time. But this time the information doesn't come from some sweaty nerd who still lives in his mum's box room and has a special sock to wank into. No, this warning comes from a legit astronaut. He used to work for NASA, for fuck's sake.

Leroy Chiao spent 230 days in space, so he knows what he's talking about. He told space.com that it'd be the 'height of arrogance to believe that we are alone'. Could this video be what he is talking about...?

He reckons that in the whole vast universe there must be some other planets out there that support life, which I think seems fair enough. Leroy believes that there's a strong possibility of life on Promixa b, which is apparently the most Earth-like planet we've come across so far.

He also warned that life on Earth is quite likely to die out at some point, 'either from natural causes, or from our own doing' and that technology isn't going to save us, like we thought it might.

Leroy said: "Indeed, there are strong arguments that after enabling life to thrive, technology is now hastening our collective demise."

Alright, Captain Bringdown, we get it, humans are shit.
