UFOs are ‘likely more advanced’ than we are: Avi Loeb blasts Stephen Hawking fearmongering on extra-terrestrial life

Extraterrestrial life is likely “more advanced” than mankind but this is not something we should fear, a leading Harvard astrophysicist has claimed.

Speaking on GB News America, Avi Loeb hit out at “fear mongering” from the likes of Stephen Hawking on the matter.

Loeb joined Patrick Christys to reflect on his personal research as the hunt for extraterrestrial life continues.

He told GB News that mankind could learn from other lifeforms should they ever come to light.

“They are likely more advanced than we are and we could learn from them”, he said.

“I see it in a positive way. I see it as an opportunity for us to get better, to appreciate that there is so much real estate out there.

“Some smarter kids may be on our cosmic block that we can learn from.”

The Harvard expert went on to hit out at doom mongers who suggest any form of alien are likely to pose a significant threat to the human race.

“I completely disagree with the view that introduces fear into this context”, he said.

“Stephen Hawking was advocating that we should be very careful of any contact or transmitting signals. I don’t see it that way.

“I don’t think we pose a threat to them because we are so early in our technological evolution, just a century worth of modern science.

“That’s a tiny amount of time compared to the age of the Earth, for example.”

Conspiracy theories regarding the whereabouts or existence of extraterrestrial lifeforms have long circulated, and Loeb believes the US Government may be aware of more than it lets on.

“The government monitors the sky for national security purposes”, he said.

“Whereas scientists, astronomers for example, look at small regions of the sky at very distant sources of light.

“If something flies overhead, astronomers ignore it. If there is something over there, it’s the government that would be the first to notice it.”
