So did mention of zero point energy, which its fans claim could be&nbsp;harnessed as an inexhaustible power supply.<\/p>\n<p><iframe title=\"ed mitchell\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/_uAd_EYEvU8?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen=\"\" data-ratio=\"0.75\" data-width=\"800\" data-height=\"600\" style=\"display: block; margin: 0px; width: 800px; height: 600px;\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHillary Clinton Leaked E-Mails Reveal Shocking Discussions on SPACE WARS, UFOs and ETs,\u201d one of the more breathless (and search-optimized) headlines read.<\/p>\n<p>But in fact, Mitchell never met with&nbsp;Clinton \u2013 or with Podesta, for that matter. \u201cThe meeting with Podesta, sadly, never took place,\u201d Carol Rosin, one of Mitchell\u2019s longtime collaborators, told GeekWire today in an email.<\/p>\n<p>Rosin and Mansfield confirmed that Mitchell was indeed the author of the two emails, even though they went out via Mansfield\u2019s email address, terribillionairs@aol.com. They said they worked with an aide to Podesta in hopes of arranging a meeting with him&nbsp;to discuss&nbsp;a treaty to ban weapons in outer space.<\/p>\n<p>Rosin noted that Mitchell and Podesta shared an interest in extraterrestrial lore.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAs you know, Dr. Mitchell was courageously educating people about the fact that \u2018we are not alone,\u2019 that there is no evidence of there being any hostile ETs here or coming to control, intervene or harm us, that we can have zero point energy, that there are no weapons based in space and that this is the unique time in history when our leaders can sign and ratify the \u2018Treaty on the Prevention of the Placement of Weapons in Outer Space\u2019 that has been introduced by the leaders of Russia and China,\u201d Rosin&nbsp;said.<\/p>\n<p>https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=rZy149hk4yg<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>So, what about Podesta? When he left the White House in February 2015, he said in a tweet that his biggest regret of the previous year was \u201conce again not securing the disclosure of the UFO files.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019ve talked to Hillary about that,\u201d Podesta told KLAS-TV this&nbsp;March during a campaign stop in Las Vegas. \u201cThere are still classified files that could be declassified.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Podesta hasn\u2019t discussed what might be in those files, but Clinton has vowed to \u201cget to the bottom\u201d of&nbsp;any mystery that still surrounds the&nbsp;UFO phenomenon.<\/p>\n<p>Two&nbsp;other emails in WikiLeaks\u2019 Podesta file were sent by Tom DeLonge, a veteran of the rock band Blink-182. Those emails&nbsp;refer&nbsp;to a UFO-related documentary project&nbsp;\u2013 perhaps the&nbsp;\u201cSekret Machines\u201d multimedia project that DeLonge&nbsp;kicked off&nbsp;this year.<\/p>\n<p><iframe title=\"Sekret Machines Q &amp; A with Tom DeLonge and AJ Hartley (Episode 1)\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/ko7GyLo5c2Q?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen=\"\" data-ratio=\"0.5625\" data-width=\"800\" data-height=\"450\" style=\"display: block; margin: 0px; width: 800px; height: 450px;\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>In an email from last October, DeLonge told Podesta that he\u2019s \u201cthe one who interviewed you for that special documentary,\u201d relating to \u201cour sensitive topic.\u201d In the other email,&nbsp;sent this January, DeLonge referred to Air Force Maj. Gen. William McCasland in connection with the 1947 Roswell UFO incident.<\/p>\n<p>Roswell was of interest to Mitchell as well.&nbsp;When I interviewed him in 2014, he acknowledged that he relied on the claims that others have made about Roswell and other UFO sightings. That secondhand perspective also&nbsp;probably applies to Mitchell\u2019s reference to the&nbsp;Vatican connection.<\/p>\n<p>Even if Clinton (or Trump) comes across new revelations, it\u2019ll be too late for Mitchell. He passed away this February at the age of 85. Nevertheless, there may yet be more to come from the late moonwalker. \u201cThe book Edgar and I wrote decades ago will soon be published,\u201d Rosin said in her email.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>NASA astronauts Edgar Mitchell (foreground) and Alan Shepard (background) work on the lunar surface during the Apollo 14 mission in 1971.
