If people want to know about UFO sightings in Wales, they better speak Klingon.

When Shadow Health Minister Darren Millar submitted questions about UFO sightings at Cardiff Airport, a Welsh government spokesperson responded in Klingon, the fictional language from "Star Trek," according to the BBC.

Millar also asked if any research was being funded to look into the reported sightings, the BBC reported.

"Jang vIDa je due luq," the spokesperson replied, according to BBC. "'Ach ghotvam'e' QI'yaH devolve qaS.”
