The Extraterrestrial Exposure Law

Did anyone else know about this? Or am I just late?

On 16 July 1969, a United States law was passed called the
"Extra-Terrestrial Exposure Law" that made it illegal for the public
to come in contact with extra-terrestrials or their vehicles. (Title
14, Section 1211 of the Code of Federal Regulations). Anyone found
guilty of such contact could face up to one year imprisonment as well
as a fine of $5000. Also, any individual who had been "exposed" could
be quarantined under armed guard by the NASA administrator without a
hearing.

I haven't heard of that but I do think you might be a little late.

Mostly because it was in 1969.

That doesn't mean the law isn't still in effect.

Finding things like this takes quite some time. Sometimes 40 years pass before anyone discovers such laws are actually there.

nice....

that law shows how civilised the US government is...lol



i wonder how many laws one governemnt can come up with?

Also completely irrelevant since most accounts are abductions in North America, since this is grey territory. And even with those who have positive, they sure havn't made an issue. Imagine, a year in jail for contact or abduction, going to court. Of course, with the thousands or even higher involved, that would be major disclosure wouldn't it.

You posted the link to a text of this law, however you apparently didn't read it:

This part establishes:
1. NASA policy, responsibility and authority to guard the Earth against any harmful contamination or adverse changes in its environment resulting from personnel, spacecraft and other property returning to the Earth after landing on or coming within the atmospheric envelope of a celestial body;
2. and security requirements, restrictions and safeguards that are necessary in the interest of national security.

1211.101 - Applicability
The provisions of this part to all NASA manned and unmanned space missions which land or come within the atmospheric envelope of a celestial body and return to the Earth.

Extraterrestrial:
Originating, located, or occurring outside Earth or its atmosphere

Basically it says you are not to touch anything or anyone that NASA has launched to the moon or any other planet/moon/etc. otherwise you will be fined and quarantined.

There is absolutely NOTHING in there about aliens or UFO's
