I am sure NASA has been asked that a lot. They probably dont care about hypothetical questions that are less about the universe and more about 'conspiracy'.

Years ago, as part of a grammar school project, my son's class was encouraged to take NASA up on their open invitation to answer questions from children. His first question some years ago now was: If NASA discovered aliens, would they tell the public. No answer.
If and when life is discovered will NASA alert the public?
Yes, of course we would inform the public! Why not? So far NASA scientists have not found evidence of life anywhere outside Earth, but finding such life is the primary goal of astrobiologists. This would be perhaps the greatest scientific discovery of all time, and we would want to share...

your son should have just simplified it and asked "Are NASA a bunch of liars?"

First, I would ask why do they black out certain portions of the sky map in certain constellations? What's up with that? What has national security got to do with anything that would keep NASA from not showing and blacking out an area in space?

Is the International Space Station defenseless? Could someone actually take a shot at it or even take it over? How would the astronauts on board respond. Could they defend themselves?
