The
fascinating history of the
World
Wide Web. It's less than 20 years old! How
interesting to live during the emergence of a technology
which has forever altered human interaction. I feel
particularly privileged to have lived until adulthood
without access to anything like the internet, I'm part of a
rare transitional generation.

Hmm... Aliens have contacted humans several times
but governments have hidden the truth for 60 years, the
sixth man to walk on the moon has claimed. Apollo 14
astronaut
Dr
Edgar Mitchell, said he was aware of many UFO visits to
Earth during his career with NASA but each one was covered
up. Dr Mitchell, 77, said during a radio interview that
sources at the space agency who had had contact with aliens
described the beings as 'little people who look strange to
us.' He said supposedly real-life ET's were similar to the
traditional image of a small frame, large eyes and head.
Chillingly, he claimed our technology is 'not nearly as
sophisticated' as theirs and "had they been hostile", he
warned 'we would be been gone by now'. Dr Mitchell, along
with with Apollo 14 commander Alan Shepard, holds the record
for the longest ever moon walk, at nine hours and 17 minutes
following their 1971 mission. 'I happen to have been
privileged enough to be in on the fact that we've been
visited on this planet and the UFO phenomena is real,' Dr
Mitchell said. 'It's been well covered up by all our
governments for the last 60 years or so, but slowly it's
leaked out and some of us have been privileged to have been
briefed on some of it. 'I've been in military and
intelligence circles, who know that beneath the surface of
what has been public knowledge, yes - we have been visited.
Reading the papers recently, it's been happening quite a
bit.' Dr Mitchell, who has a Bachelor of Science degree in
aeronautical engineering and a Doctor of Science degree in
Aeronautics and Astronautics claimed Roswell was real and
similar alien visits continue to be investigated. He told
the astonished Kerrang! radio host Nick Margerrison: 'This
is really starting to open up. I think we're headed for real
disclosure and some serious organisations are moving in that
direction.' Mr Margerrison said: 'I thought I'd stumbled on
some sort of astronaut humour but he was absolutely serious
that aliens are definitely out there and there's no debating
it.' Officials from NASA, however, were quick to play the
comments down. In a statement, a spokesman said: "NASA does
not track UFOs. NASA is not involved in any sort of cover up
about alien life on this planet or anywhere in the universe.
'Dr Mitchell is a great American, but we do not share his
opinions on this issue.'
