To coincide with the release of a movie involving aliens, 20th Century Fox polled 1000 kids aged five to 16. According to the results, 75% believe aliens exist - and 1/3 believe their teacher's body is being controlled by alien forces! 72% believe that, should aliens ever invade, it would be peaceful and the aliens would be friendly.
90% of the 16 year olds were unable to name all eight planets in the solar system.
