This article does not fully confirm the existence of aliens. All five people they asked have an education in astrobiology, astrophysics, planetary science, or space technology. I would have liked to see them ask more people, which would have gotten a better sample size. Each expert gave a detailed response to back up if they had answered yes or no.

So do you rate the claim as true? False? Other? I couldn't quite figure it out based on your fact-check and you didn't select a rating!
