aliens.gov is Sparking Mass Panic as Internet Users Realize the Government Pre-Registered a Domain for Alien Contact
The internet is losing its collective mind over aliens.gov, a dormant U.S. government domain that suddenly feels less like a sci-fi plot and more like a “we parked this just in case” confession. Meme historians are having a field day: the irony is that we’ve been begging for UFO transparency for decades, but now that a literal .gov link exists, everyone’s terrified to click it. The funny side? It’s just an empty 404 page—so either the aliens haven’t filled out their paperwork yet, or the government is trolling us with the most bureaucratic first contact ever. Viral speculation is already calling it “the most expensive landing page in history.”
