Is the Alien Galactic Federation Real? Viral Debate Explodes After Former Space Chief's Bold Disclosure Resurfaces
Eshed claimed Earth has been in contact with a galactic federation of aliens

Online debate has erupted once again after extraordinary claims made by a former Israeli space security chief resurfaced, prompting renewed questions such as whether this could be the closest the public has come to proof of alien existence.
Searches for terms like 'alien galactic federation' have surged as users revisit the statements of Haim Eshed, a retired general who led Israel's space security programme for nearly three decades.
His testimony, first published in 2020, has returned to prominence following a wave of social media interest and speculation.
What the Former Space Chief Actually Claimed
Eshed originally made headlines when he alleged that Earth has been in contact with a so-called galactic federation of extraterrestrials.
According to his account, these purported non-human beings maintain agreements with world governments but insist on secrecy, supposedly because humanity is not yet ready for direct disclosure.
Eshed also asserted that the extraterrestrials operate more like researchers than aggressors and that their interest lies in understanding the structure and rules of the universe.
Among his most controversial claims was the suggestion of an underground facility on Mars reportedly staffed by American astronauts and non-human representatives.
He further stated that US President Donald Trump had been briefed on the situation but was persuaded not to share the information publicly.
Eshed detailed these assertions in his book The Universe Beyond the Horizon, which blends personal testimony with speculative interpretation based on his decades-long involvement in Israel's aerospace sector.
Why the Claims Are Trending Again
The renewed attention comes at a time of heightened global curiosity surrounding unidentified aerial phenomena and government transparency on extraterrestrial life. Public interest has been amplified by recent international hearings, whistleblower allegations, and scientific missions searching for microbial life on Mars and exoplanets.
This broader environment appears to have revived Eshed's earlier statements, allowing them to circulate widely once more.

Social media users have been revisiting clips, interviews and summaries of his claims, often questioning whether any aspects align with other publicly known information about space research or defence activities.
The resurfacing has driven significant search volume related to alien contact and the possibility of a structured extraterrestrial alliance.
No Official Confirmation and NASA's Response
Although Eshed held a senior and respected position within Israel's space establishment, no government has confirmed any of his claims.
Agencies that were referenced in his statements have not provided official comment. NASA, when asked in earlier coverage of the claims, reiterated its longstanding position that while it actively searches for evidence of life in the universe, it has no verified proof of extraterrestrial contact.
Scientific communities have consistently treated Eshed's remarks as unverified assertions that fall outside established research findings.
No independent evidence has been presented to support the existence of a galactic federation, a Mars facility or government agreements with non-human entities.
How the Public Is Responding Online
The resurfacing has triggered wide discussion on social platforms, with users debating whether Eshed's credentials lend credibility to his claims or whether the statements reflect personal beliefs developed later in his career.
Some users frame the discussion around broader concerns about government secrecy, while others revisit past UFO reports and declassified files in an attempt to contextualise Eshed's comments.
Regardless of interpretation, the viral conversation demonstrates the continued public fascination with extraterrestrial life and the appetite for information about potential contact scenarios.
The resurgence of Eshed's disclosures highlights how dramatically interest can reignite when a high ranking official's past statements re-enter the public sphere.
