He bases his belief in intelligent life solely on probability and does not claim to have seen aliens during his missions.

Jesse Watters opens with allegations from UFO files and reported sightings, then turns to the race to return to the Moon and competition among space companies. The segment includes footage and discussion of rocket launches and NASA’s plans for a lunar base, including robotic vehicles and a search for water near the lunar south pole.
In an interview, retired NASA astronaut Winston Scott is asked whether he believes in aliens and whether war in space is likely. Scott says that, given the billions of planets, he believes intelligent life exists somewhere else in the universe. Whether it is visiting Earth, he says, remains open to discussion. Asked about combat in space, Scott says he hopes it will not happen but would not rule it out. He points to tensions with Russia despite cooperation on the International Space Station, and to a more militarily oriented space race with China. Scott also welcomes competition among private space companies, saying it is making access to space more affordable and efficient.
0:09>> Jesse: PRESIDENT TRUMP JUST DROPPED THE SEVENTH BATCH OF UFO FILES AND IT'S GETTING FREAKY. THE DOCS SAY BRAZILIAN OFFICIALS CLAIM ALIENS WERE SHOOTING AT THEM WITH LASER BEAMS. THIS HAPPENED IN 1977. THEY SAID 10 PEOPLE DIED FROM THE AMBUSH. AND 30 MORE REPORTED BEING LEVITATED IN THE AIR. THE BRAZILIAN AIR FORCE LOGGED SIGHTINGS OF THREE TO FOUR-FOOT ALIENS AND THEY WERE GRAY. THAT'S NOT ALL. HERE AT HOME A WITNESS CLAIMED TO SEE A SKIN WALKER RUNNING THROUGH HIS BACKYARD IN UTAH. THE WITNESS DREW THIS. LOOK AT THAT. HE SAID THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT THE SKIN WALKERS LOOK LIKE, DESCRIBING IT AS SIX TO EIGHT FEET TALL WITH GLOWING RED EYES, AND CLAIMED IT CAN EVEN SHAPE
0:54SHIFT. INVESTIGATORS EVEN PULLED HAIR OFF A BARB WIRE FENCE ALLEGEDLY LEFT BEHIND BY THE SKIN WALKER. THIS PAST YEAR MORE UFO ALLEGATIONS WERE SPOTTED IN OUR SKY. WITNESSES REPORTED SEEING A TRIANGLE ZIPPING OVER A MILITARY BASE IN UTAH. ACCORDING TO THE REPORT IT MADE NO SOUND AND STRETCHED UP TO 15 FEET WIDE. WE DON'T KNOW WHAT'S GOING ON. SOME OF THE STUFF IS A LITTLE COOKIE BUT SOME OF IT IS VERY SERIOUS AND WE'RE FOLLOWING IT. BECAUSE ONE OF NASA'S TOP OFFICIALS IS GEARING UP FOR STAR WARS. YES, HEGSETH. HE THINKS SPACE IS GOING TO BE THE NEXT BATTLEFIELD. SPACE FORCE WILL NEED ALL L THE FIREPOWER THEY CAN GET SO NASA, PUTTING THEIR GEAR TO THE TEST.
1:40[EXPLOSIONS] >> Jesse: THESE ENGINES ARE GOING ON THE NEXT ROCKET HEADED TO THE MOON. AND ANOTHER ONE JUST JOINED THE PARTY, NOT FROM SPACEX OR NASA, A COMPANY CALLED ROCKET LAB IS GETTING IN ON THE ACTION. >> 3-2-1. LIFT-OFF. >> Jesse: THAT'S THE ELECTRON. IT DELIVERED THREE HAWKEYE SATELLITES BUILT TO TRACK DOWN GHOST SHIPS AT SEA. THE MISSION NAME -- WE'RE NOT
2:26HAWKING AROUND. ON THE WAY UP IT LIT UP THE SKY WITH A SPACE JELLYFISH BUT UNLIKE SPACE S THIS ONE ISN'T REUSABLE. ELON'S FALCON ONE ROCKET BLASTED OFF TODAY AND LANDED ON A DRONE SHIP IN THE PACIFIC. CHECK THIS OUT. >> 3-2-1. ADMISSION. >> THE VEHICICLE IS PITCHING DOWNRANGE. >> LANDING -- DEPLOYED. >> Jesse: WOW! ELON IS GETTING READY TO TAKE US TO THE STARS.
3:12HE'S IN THE LAB TESTING OUT THE STARSHIP ROCKET THAT COULD CARRY US TO THE MOON. [ENGINE SOUNDS] >> Jesse: WE'RE ON A MAD DASH TO THE MOON. TWO OF OUR BIGGEST BILLIONAIRES ARE GOING HEAD-TO-HEAD, MUSK AND BEZOS. IT WILL HAVE SIX ROCKETS, GENERATOR MORE THAN HALF A MILLION POUNDS OF THRUST. THIS IS BEZOS'S. IT'S SMALLER THAN MUSK'S, TRAPPED WITH THREE MOON ENGINES,
4:00TRIPPING THE AMOUNT OF POWER THAT LANDED NEIL ARMSTRONG ON THE ROCK. BEZOS WILL LAUNCH HIS INTO SPACE AND DOCK IT LETTING ASTRONAUTS CLIMB INSIDE AND MUSK WILL SEND UP HIS STARSHIP AND SHOW NASA THEY CAN REFUEL THEIR ROCKET IN ZERO-G. BY THE END OF 2027, THEY WILL SEND THEM TO THE MOON FOR THE FINAL SHOWDOWN. NASA ALSO JUST GAVE US THEIR MOST AMBITIOUS MOON BASE PLANS YET. BEFORE ANY ASTRONAUTS MOVE IN THEY WILL BE PUTTING UP SELF--DRIVING MOON BUGGIES, A VIPER ROVER, DRILLING FOR WATER, AND HOPPING ROBOT DRONES. THEY CALL THEM MOON FALL, SCOUTING OUT THE LAND, BUT THIS IS ALL TO BUILD UP THE NEIGHBORHOOD. >> IN FACT, IN DECEMBER OF THIS YEAR, WEEKS AWAY, WE'LL LAUNCH
4:46THE FIRST MOON BASE MISSION UNDER PRESIDENT TRUMP'S NATIONAL SPACE POLICY. IT WILL LAY THE FIRST FIGURE ACTIVE BRICK ON THE LUNAR SOUTH POLE. >> Trace: WINSTON SCOTT, A RETIRED NASA ASTRONAUT, ALL RIGHT, WINSTON, LET'S JUST GET YOU ON THE RECORD, DO YOU BELIEVE IN ALIENS? >> JESSE, I GET THAT QUESTION A LOT WHEN I TALK TO MY AUDIENCE AND I ALWAYS TURN THE QUESTION AROUND AND ASK THEM, HOW MANY OF YOU BELIEVE THERE IS LIFE SOMEPLACE ELSE IN THE UNIVERSE? I'M A NUMBERS PERSON AND WITH ALL THE BILLIONS AN BILLIONS OF PLANETS WE CAN'T BE THE ONLY ONE THAT HAS INTELLIGENT LIFE SO I DO BELIEVE THERE IS LIFE SOMEPLACE ELSE OUT THERE IN THE UNIVERSE. NOW, WHETHER OR NOT IT'S VISITING US HERE ON EARTH OR NOT IS A TOPIC OF DISCUSSION.
5:32I THINK E.T. IS OUT THERE SOME PLACE. >> Jesse: I WOULD AGREE WITH YOU ON THAT BUT YOU WOULD KNOW A LOT MORE THAN I DO. THE BATTLEFIELD, SPAPACE, DO YO THINK WE WILL SEE WAR IN THE STARS? >> I SURE HOPE NOT BUT I TELL YOU, WE LIVE IN A WORLD WHERE THERE IS A STRONG DISAGREEMENT, I MEAN, RUSSIA IS OUR PARTNER IN TERMS OF THE INTERNATIONAL SPACE PROGRAM. SPACE STATION. BUT THEY ARE NOT OUR ALLY. WE'RE IN A SPACE RACE WITH CHINA AND THAT RACE IS MORE MILITARY-ORIENTED. WE JUST HAD THE CHAIRMAN OF THE SPACE FORCE SAY WE HAVE KINETIC WEAPONS IN SPACE. WE LIVE IN A WORLD WHERE WE HAVE TO BE PREPARED TO DEFEND
6:17OUOURSELVES MILITARILY. WE HOPE WE CONTINUE SEE CONFLICT AND COMBAT IN SPACE BUT I WOULD NOT RULE IT OUT. I CERTAINLY HOPE THAT SPACE CAN BE A UNIFYING PLACE THAT BRINGS PEOPLE TOGETHER. BUT, WE WILL SEE WHAT HAPPENS. THE PROOF IS IN THE PUDDING. >> Jesse: THAT'S RIGHT. AND IF WE DO, WE HAVE TO WIN. NOW, THE, I GUESS, I'M NOT GOING TO SAY WHAT IT REALLY IS BUT WHOSE ROCKET IS BIGGER? YOU'VE GOT BEZOS, YOU'VE GOT MUSK, I LIKE A LITTLE HEALTHY COMPETITION. IS THIS WHAT MAKES US BETTER? >> ABSOLUTELY. COMPETITION IS THE AMERICAN WAY. IF YOU THINK BACK TO MAYBE 50 YEARS AGO WHEN NASA WAS THE ONLY GAME IN TOWN, NASA DID ALL THE GOOD ESOTERIC CUTTING EDGE
7:03THINGS BUT NOW WE'RE TO THE POINT WHERE WE HAVE HEALTHY COMPETITION BETWEEN COMPANIES AND WHAT IT'S DOING IS PRODUCING SPACE PROGRAMS, ACCESS TO SPACE, THAT'S COST-EFFECTIVE, MORE AFFORDABLE, EFFICIENT, OUR DOLLARS ARE GOING A LOT FURTHER, WE HAVE MORE AND MORE PEOPLE GOING INTO SPACE, WE'RE PRODUCING MORE PRODUCTS, WE'RE -- THE BENEFITS ARE TREMENDOUS. THE THING THAT'S MADE AMERICA GREAT IS GOOD OLD COMPETITION. I LOVE IT. >> Jesse: I LOVE IT, TOO. BUY THE STOCK. I'M NOT A FINANC
