Alien invasion theories have recently taken a firm foundation as two airborne objects were shot down in the U.S. and Canada within a span of 48 hours. As it happens, people on the internet are voicing their own concerns and opinions regarding the events.On Friday, February 10, 2023, the Pentagon shot down a high-altitude airborne object in Alaska airspace at President Biden’s direction. While the object remained unidentified, the next day, NORAD performed another shutdown of a similar object that was located over Canadian airspace.As news of the two operations spread across the web, several netizens commented on how the leaders were staging a fake alien invasion to bring changes to the economy and other things. One user, @TexasAustyn, sarcastically tweeted on February 12 asking netizens to prepare themselves for a fake alien invasion that is on its way:"Brace yourselves for the incoming fake alien invasion. 3,2,1"Austyn_Texas@TexasAustynBrace yourselves for the incoming fake alien invasion. 3, 2, 136020Brace yourselves for the incoming fake alien invasion. 3, 2, 1In February, the two consecutive aircraft operations marked the third event of spotting mysterious objects in U.S. airspace. Last Saturday, a spy balloon sent by China was spotted over the Atlantic Ocean, which was then taken down off the North Carolina coast after it floated across the country for several days.Netizens flocked to Twitter with their alien invasion theories, as some users think it is a staged scenario devised by political leadersThe objects seen across airspace in the U.S. and Canada are thought to be spy balloons by authorities. In the meantime, people on Twitter cannot help but conjure up theories about the objects being UFOs, hinting at the possibility of a looming alien invasion.However, they are only talking about alien discourse as a joke since they are all convinced about one thing - the whole situation being a staged scenario devised by political leaders. People are saying that just like the coronavirus and the war between Russia and Ukraine, the possible alien invasion narrative is another conspiracy theory to keep people in some sort of fear and anticipation.David Leavitt@David_LeavittMultiple UFOS 🛸 being tracked by #NORAD45351128Multiple UFOS 🛸 being tracked by #NORAD https://t.co/eOueQtwRMoJermaine@JermaineWatkinsAnother UFO, this time in Northern Canada.1708327Another UFO, this time in Northern Canada. https://t.co/kVEsVlJHrwAreCowsRacist🇺🇸🚜@cchevy65Another UFO but....26955Another UFO but.... https://t.co/U4bf9Mx3seBecky Hammer@beckyhammerMe getting yet another UFO news alert53121304Me getting yet another UFO news alert https://t.co/3fpXEAzDMuIsaac Hayes III@IsaacHayes3So let me get this straight,…U.S. shoots down Chinese balloon over the East coast 6 days ago,Yesterday U.S. shoots down a UFO over Alaska.

This prompted a Michigan Republican, Peter Meijer, to question whether the object could be a UFO or not.On Saturday, February 11, he tweeted that he hoped the unidentified flying object shot down over Alaska was a spy balloon and not a real UFO. Meijer stated that the irony of mistaking an alien spacecraft for a spy balloon would be amusing to all. However, it is not worth declaring an interstellar war or conflict.Peter Meijer@RepMeijerReally hoping this ‘unidentified [flying] object’ was another spy balloon and not a legit UFO; the irony of confusing an alien spacecraft for a weather balloon would be amazing but not worth starting an interstellar conflict. twitter.com/natashabertran…Natasha Bertrand@NatashaBertrandBreaking: John Kirby confirms that another unidentified object was shot down last night near Alaska. Unclear what the object was but it posed a threat to aircraft, he said.57494Breaking: John Kirby confirms that another unidentified object was shot down last night near Alaska.

Kirby said that while it was unclear what the high-altitude object was, it posed a considerable threat to the safety of civilian aircraft since it was flying at an approximate height of 40,000 feet.Natasha Bertrand@NatashaBertrandThe “high altitude object” was flying at around 40,000 feet, Kirby says, and “posed a reasonable threat to the safety of civilian flight.” President Biden ordered the military to down the object within the last hour at the recommendation of the Pentagon, Kirby says.28855The “high altitude object” was flying at around 40,000 feet, Kirby says, and “posed a reasonable threat to the safety of civilian flight.” President Biden ordered the military to down the object within the last hour at the recommendation of the Pentagon, Kirby says.Kirby stated that after receiving a recommendation from the Pentagon, the President of the United States, Joe Biden, ordered military jets to take down the object in an abundance of caution.The object landed within American territorial waters, which are currently frozen. Kirby also noted that they were calling the airborne thing an object for now because it is the best description they have.
