Are we earthlings really alone in this universe?
Captain Kirk himself sets out to find the answer to this burning question in his new show, “Aliens Among Us,” now airing on Fox Nation.
“I spent decades pretending to explore space, and then I got the chance to go there,” “Star Trek” actor William Shatner said in a sneak peek of the show.
“I want to know: Is there anybody out there? We've asked pilots, space psychologists and government officials the big question: Are there aliens among us?”
Harvard UFO study that claims there could be aliens on Earth disguised as humans is a 'thought experiment,' expert says
Shatner's new show challenges skepticism about UFOs, incorporates shocking testimonies and examines interesting studies that defend the existence of something sentient beyond the world we know.
“We don't say, 'Look, here's a piece of a spaceship,'” he said during a guest appearance on “Fox & Friends” on Wednesday.
“But there are rumours that the US government has done some reverse engineering. They've found debris that they think is from spacecraft, but the mystery is why they haven't landed on the White House grounds and said, 'Here we are, and we need to stop the wars and the fighting, and there are bigger things than that out there. ' Why haven't they come forward? I don't know.”

Recently, airline pilots reported alleged UFOs “dancing in the sky” during a flight from Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, to Abuja, Nigeria and captured footage of three bright spots in the sky.
Van Pangemanan, who was responsible for capturing the images, said he saw as many as four spots, each aligned in a way reminiscent of the Phoenix Lights phenomenon that occurred in Arizona 27 years ago, according to the New York Post.
“They're seeing something, aren't they? But what are they seeing?” Shatner said of the phenomenon. “And that's the problem. What are they? What are they doing? Why are they there? We don't know. Part of the mystery of life is that we're surrounded by mystery…”

“Strange things are happening, and beyond the strange things they're seeing in the sky, they're finding debris on the ground,” he added. “They're seeing things going into the ocean, and what are they? Where are they? Where are they coming from? Do they really exist or are they crazy?” [a mirage]”which is a bit like seeing water in the desert?”
UFO mysteries have captivated even Americans at the federal level, prompting lawmakers to launch historic congressional hearings on alleged sightings last year. Earlier this year, Harvard academics drew attention after publishing a speculative paper labeled a “thought experiment” suggesting that aliens could already be here.
