The famous Russian cosmonaut Georgy Grechko gave a frank interview, in which he admitted that he had been looking for traces of ancient aliens from space on Earth for a long time. According to a person who has repeatedly been in space, he has not met aliens there, but he is sure that they have been on our planet and will return.
Buckwheat has been studying the problem of paleocontact for a long time - visiting the Earth in the distant past by intelligent beings of extraterrestrial origin. According to him, with age, the riddles in this topic for him only become more. “Over the years, you begin to understand that everything is ambiguous, you learn to separate fairy tales and myths from facts. Life's experience also helps. Although I was drawn to the secrets of the sky since childhood. I have always tried to look beyond the horizon, so to speak,”Grechko notes.
“I sincerely tried to find traces of the visit of guests from space, although at first I did not believe in flying saucers. But nevertheless, I saw a certain paradox in the Universe: thousands of people watched the "saucers" fly across the sky, but no one has "caught" them so far. Why? There is clearly something wrong here … Therefore, if ufologists say that they have found and are ready to show me at least the wreckage of a UFO, I will go to make sure, "Rosbalt quotes Grechko.
“I think aliens came to us, but for a very long time. Perhaps they helped people live, appearing on Earth once every several thousand years. And also - I hope they come back. The Chinese and Indian annals give different dates for the "return of the gods". I think all these calendars were given to them by aliens. For example, the Mayan calendar ended in December 2013. The Maya believed that this was the end of our era - the fifth in a row - civilization on Earth. It means that something completely new will begin soon … But what? It’s just interesting to me - just like in childhood,”Grechko notes.
At the same time, as Grechka assures, he is interested "not in UFOs, but in paleocosmonautics." “Have I seen anything unusual in space? I have not seen "little green men" or flying saucers in orbit. But we observed from our ship luminous points of unknown origin. They moved among the stars and even, as it seemed to us then, made some kind of maneuvers …”Grechko smiles.
“The same lights are seen through telescopes from Earth. But what was it? Alien starships? Motes that have lagged behind the skin of our ship? Waste tank discarded from the ISS that has not yet burned out in the atmosphere? The last stage from a rocket launched from Earth? A satellite that has served its time and turned into a piece of metal? Of course, the easiest way would be to say: “These are aliens!” But, unfortunately, it is not yet possible to prove it…”- assures the famous astronaut.
