Former NASA employee claims to have seen a real alien

Former NASA employee, Clark C. McClelland, claims that an alien standing 9 feet tall hitched a ride on a space shuttle.

McClelland, who claims to have worked for NASA for 35 years, said that he was monitoring a space shuttle mission and, to his surprise, saw a tall, slender looking creature with two astronauts in the payload bay of the space shuttle. He also claims that the "creature" appered to be having a conversation with the astronauts.

(not the alien McClelland saw)

Many people have questioned this story and have even called McClelland "nuts" and a "hoaxer" after they failed to find any infomation about his work for NASA and the fact that he's not listed on NASA's own website. Then, on the other hand, UFO believers claim that he's was probably removed from NASA's records due to his annoucement of the alien.

Still a very strange and bizarre story, what do you think? truth or hoax?
