Gary McKinnon: Hacking NASA, UFO Theories, and the Case for a Secret Space Fleet

To the point

Gary McKinnon, a Scottish hacker known as Solo, hacked U.S. government and NASA systems in 2001–2002, claimed evidence of a secret space fleet and airbrushed NASA images, drew on Steven Greer’s Disclosure Project and Donna Hare’s account, faced extradition with up to 70 years’ imprisonment that Theresa May blocked in 2012 on human rights grounds, and says he sought the truth about UFOs rather than criminal gain, leaving the covert space program question unresolved.
