 I was just hunting UFOs, says Pentagon's UK hacker
But Briton Gary McKinnon says he is just an ordinary computer nerd who wanted to find out whether aliens and UFOs exist.

Very interesting article about a man from the UK who hacked US government computers to find more about UFOs and Aliens.
"I can't talk about a lot of stuff that I found. It's just not the right time," he said with a smile.

I think it's kind of cool, though what he did was wrong, it'd be kind of cool to find out the TRUTH

Maybe, but I don't think the government are stupid enough to keep any information about UFOs (even if they had any proper information) on computers which hackers would target.
