UFO Expert Claims Aliens Monitored US Nuclear Bases for Decades

Speculation about extraterrestrial spacecraft visiting Earth has circulated for decades. During the 1960s and 70s, UFOs were reportedly seen over military bases across the United States, sparking concerns of a potential alien invasion.

Though these sightings were largely dismissed, some individuals continue to assert their credibility. Recently, UFO expert Robert Hastings claimed that alien spacecraft visited “every major nuclear missile base” during that period and continue to do so. Hastings’s claim stems from interviews with former military personnel, as he shares in his book UFOs and Nukes, according to The Daily Mail. He asserts that “the ones currently operational have been visited repeatedly, year after year.”

Hastings previously revealed that over 120 former military personnel reported seeing UFOs near sites that stored or tested nuclear weapons. In his book, he suggests these extraterrestrial beings show a particular interest in nuclear technology. He speculates they might be monitoring Earth to ensure global nuclear conflicts don’t interfere with their own research or data collection.

Hastings also argues that these sightings remain unexamined due to complex and unclear classification systems.

These assertions follow recent government records indicating UFO sightings near U.S. military sites, including a series of sightings over Joint Base Langley-Eustis last December. Despite the involvement of various agencies, including the Pentagon and NASA’s WB-57F research aircraft, there has been no official disclosure about these sightings.

In June, a study on UFO sightings suggested that “this intelligence understands atomic weaponry.” Led by a former U.S. Air Force staff sergeant and a data analyst connected to Harvard’s UFO research group, the Galileo Project, the study examined over 500 well-supported UFO reports from the Cold War era, relying only on credible accounts backed by witness testimonies or signals, while excluding ambiguous cases.

The study indicated that from 1948 to 1975, UFOs appeared particularly attentive to the development of the U.S. nuclear arsenal.
