Reagan was the only president to ever speak publicly about the probability of alien invasion.

His obsession with aliens led him to mention the feasibility of alien contact in at least four different speeches. His most startling remark occurred on Sept. 21, 1987, while addressing a full session of the General Assembly of the United Nations.

"In our obsession with antagonisms of the moment, we often forget how much unites all the members of humanity. Perhaps we need some outside, universal threat to make us recognize this common bond," he said.

"I occasionally think how quickly our differences worldwide would vanish if we were facing an alien threat from outside this world. And yet, I ask: is not an alien force ALREADY among us?"
