Aliens started frequenting Earth more often after the first atomic bomb went off due to concerns that humanity was close to destroying the planet, a ufologist claims.
Dr Steven Greer, who founded the Center for the Student of Extraterrestrial Intelligence in the US - and claims to have encountered otherworldly beings - says there are aliens out there who are "light years ahead of us in terms of technology".
But due to their advancement, this means they're often unconcerned with the everyday occurrences on earth, that was until Julius Robert Oppenheimer developed the first atomic bomb in 1945. Oppenheimer's efforts have recently been memorialised in Christopher Nolan's box office hit named after the director of the Manhattan Project.
During an interview with VLADTV, Dr Greer, who claims to have sighted his first UFO at eight years old, was asked what the extraterrestrials' "motive" for visiting our planet is.
Dr Julius Robert Oppenheimer, the creator of the atomic bomb (AP)He said there are "multiple issues" on Earth making aliens visit us but started by claiming the mysterious extraterrestrials have been sighted by humans for thousands of years, reports the Daily Star.

"I don't think it's anything new that this planet and humans have been observed by extraterrestrial civilisations," he said. "I mean there are cave drawings from 5,000 years ago that show a classic UFO with these life forms outside of it. There's artwork from the 1400s that demonstrate and show these objects in the sky with a beam of light coming down. There's a cave in India that has similar artwork."
But the first well-known UFO sighting wouldn't occur until 1947 when businessman Kenneth Arnold claimed to spot nine high-speed objects he described as "like saucers skipping on water" near Mount Rainier in Washington while flying his small plane. The sighting led to a flying saucer craze across the US, with more than 800 similar sightings reported throughout the same year.
In the years since there's been a huge boom in UFO sightings across the world, and while some have put it down to people jumping on the bandwagon of a thrilling mystery, optical illusions, or even secret government weapons programs, Dr Greer believes aliens have been coming to Earth to observe us. He claims the increase in UFO sightings can all be put down to one significant moment in human history.

According to Dr Greer, who also founded the Disclosure project — which seeks the disclosure of allegedly classified UFO information — the explosion "got the attention" of aliens from other solar systems.
He explained: "What we didn't know, what Oppenheimer and Teller, all the people who worked on the Manhattan Project didn't know, there's an electromagnetic pulse that goes out — everybody's heard of, knocks out your electronics, electric grid — but there's also this scalar.
"Now scalar pulse is multiples of the speed of light and it is in this entangled aspect of quantum physics and it disrupts extraterrestrial travel and communications. So that got everyone's attention out there, these other star systems."
He claimed this is the reason why "every single nuclear bomb squadron, processing facility, ICMB site etc and so on here, UK, France, Soviet Union, Russia, have had some sort of UFO surveillance." Dr Greer thinks the aliens have been watching us since the creation of atomic bombs because they're concerned about "us destroying the planet" but are also worried about the "risk they pose" to their own civilisations. "There's a certain amount of interest in protecting life on Earth but there's also enlightened self-interest," he said.
But he claimed the detonation of atomic bombs isn't the only reason the otherworldly beings have been paying us a visit. Revealing their second motive, he claimed governments have recovered alien spacecraft and the extraterrestrials are "concerned" about what we've learnt from the recoveries and how we might be using this information.
He said: "Secondly, I think they're concerned that the technologies we've gotten from studying these extraterrestrial vehicles that we have downed are now being turned into weapon systems targeting extraterrestrial vehicles out in space."
While Dr Greer said he is "quite convinced" the aliens visiting Earth are "fundamentally peaceful", he warned: "Where is the red line? How far can you push into this and create a threat where humans are a threat before they have to intervene?"
