Aliens Helped The United States Win The Space Race

To be fair, we’ve clearly seen stranger theories on this list. Yet we needed to include this because it has been one of the most common conspiracy theories related to the Space Race. Did aliens help the United States win the Space Race? The quick answer is clearly no. The U.S. worked hard to make going to the Moon a reality, getting there before the Russians on their own. If aliens were part of NASA, for instance, one would assume that the technology would have been much better. Today, we have more useful technology in the iPhone than the entire Space Shuttle that went to the Moon. To look past man’s accomplishments here is crazy and, honestly, a slap in the face to the human species.
