Faking first contact

+0
−0

I am super-rich person with a net worth of 32 billion US dollars. Part of my business is being contractor for NASA and SpaceX (so I have knowledge about space technology).

I already own my island and have people working for me, willing to fulfill any of my wishes. After I realized that killing everyone would be too pricy I decided to convince everyone about my truth about the aliens.

How much does it cost to fake alien contact?

I have the technology to put a space station of Skylab size into standard Earth orbit for 62 days, and I can keep three people there.
(Nothing is in orbit yet).

The goal: Convince people that aliens are real and make as many people as possible believe it.

Plus points: Make powerful governments publicly confess that aliens are real (In this trope, I am convinced that powerful states are already in contact with aliens).

By "powerful" I mean USA, Russia, China, France and the United Kingdom - i.e. the United Nations Security Council

Do I have enough money to do it?

What steps should I make to convince people about the aliens?

I want to start with it "tomorrow" (Earth current day technology)
