In November 1969, three astronauts from Apollo 12 set foot on the Moon, from left to right: Charles “Pete” Conrad, Richard Gordon, and Alan Bean.
Alan Bean, at the age of 85, is one of the twelve individuals who have walked on the Moon, as reported by the New York Post.
He was one of the three crew members of the Apollo 12 spacecraft that landed on the Moon in November 1969. Bean spent 1,671 hours and 45 minutes in space, including 10 hours and 26 minutes on the Moon and in eагtһ’s orbit.
Bean’s experiences in space led him to develop some intriguing hypotheses about extraterrestrial life.
“I don’t believe anyone from outer space has ever visited eагtһ,” Bean told News.com.au from his home in Houston, Texas, USA.
“One of the reasons I think that is because their civilizations are more advanced, forgiving, and friendly.
One of the three astronauts from Apollo 12 on the Moon believes that extraterrestrials may have already solved many problems, such as curing cancer. ‘They could land on eагtһ and say, “We know you have this cancer that’s kіɩɩіпɡ people. We solved that problem 50 years ago. Here’s the device we put on someone’s сһeѕt to cure cancer. We’ll show you how to use it,”‘ Bean said.
“Just like someday, for example, a thousand years from now when we might go to another planet, that’s what we would say because we know how to cure cancer, congenital defects. So we would teach them.”
Bean has no doᴜЬtѕ about the existence of extraterrestrial life, as reported by the New York Post.
Astronaut Bean Believes in Extraterrestrial Life
He says, “There are billions of stars and many planets orbiting them. So, statistically, there must be many planets among them with life.
“Among them, some planets may have life like ours 100,000 years ago, some planets might have life like us now, and surely some of them could have life like us 10,000 years from now.”
Bean гetігed from NASA in 1981 to become an artist. In his paintings, he depicts the experiences of astronauts. He says, “Even if I live to be 185 years old, I’ll never run oᴜt of ideas to paint on this subject.
