Elon Musk, the visionary behind Tesla and SpaceX, has expressed skepticism regarding the existence of aliens residing on Earth. Despite accessing a network of satellites orbiting the planet, Musk has yet to encounter any evidence supporting such claims.
Responding to former Fox News host Tucker Carlson’s statement that extraterrestrial beings have been present for centuries as spiritual or supernatural entities, Musk asserted, “I have seen no evidence for aliens and, with ~6000 satellites orbiting Earth, I think I would know.”
Carlson, during an appearance on The Joe Rogan Experience, shared his belief that aliens reside beneath oceans and underground. However, Musk’s dismissal of such notions contradicts popular theories and could spark discussions on the subject.
notably, this disagreement marks one of the rare instances where Musk has differed from Carlson’s views. The Tesla CEO has previously commended Carlson’s interviews with Russian President Vladimir Putin and controversial figure Tristan Tate.
Despite his skepticism about aliens, Musk clarified that his disagreement is specific to Carlson’s views on the topic and not indicative of any broader issues with the host. Musk’s skepticism underscores the ongoing debates surrounding the existence of extraterrestrial life, while his access to advanced technology provides a unique perspective on the subject.
