The then-reporter-turned-columnist called Carter and opened his eyes unrecorded conversation on this amazing topic that Simon is now sharing in light of the centenarian’s death.

“I don’t think there’s anything to be afraid of,” Carter said. “If there is life out there, we are still part of the same plan. God’s hands are big enough to hold both of us.”

Carter also shared his thoughts on the likelihood and possible behavior of visiting aliens.

“So based on what you’ve seen, you have no reason to believe there is life there?” Simon asked the peanut farmer.

“I don’t know,” Carter replied, “But if so, it has nothing to do with UFOs. If there was another civilization, I doubt they would send large, bulky airships. They’ll probably just keep watch and leave us alone.

The reporter said he was “struck by President Carter’s thoughtfulness” on this oft-debated issue.

Former Governor of Georgia I witnessed a UFO once and shared the story of his meeting with GQ Magazine in 2005.

“I saw an unidentified flying object,” he said of his 1969 experience.

Carter said that “about 25 people” at the Lions Club dinner where he was scheduled to speak saw the otherworldly sight.

“And suddenly one of the men looked up and said, ‘Look, there in the West!’ And a bright light appeared in the sky. We’ve all seen it. And then the light was getting closer to us. And then it stopped, I don’t know how far, but it stopped behind the pine trees. And suddenly it turned blue, then red, then back to white,” he told GQ.

Carter explained that he never believed the object came from “outer space.”

“As for hiding possible flights from distant satellites or distant celestial bodies, I don’t believe it and there is no evidence that it was ever covered up. Or extraterrestrials coming to Earth, I don’t think that’s ever happened,” Carter added.

Carter left an unprecedented and unparalleled legacy in UFO disclosure.

The Peach State son promised to release all information the federal government had on the subject during the 1976 presidential campaign.

“Jimmy Carter is responsible for releasing about half of the government’s UFO files to the public” – Grant Cameron, author of “Jimmy Carter: Paranormal and UFO Tales” he told The Post in 2023.

Legendary actress Shirley McClaine, a personal friend of Carter’s, said she had deeper thoughts on the matter than he let on publicly.

“When I first wrote (my book) Out on a Limb, he told me many times that he would support me, that it was true, that there were crafts, that he believed there were occupiers” – “Terms of Endearment” the star said on the “Larry King Show” in 1995.
