In the interview he mentions it, and also in other reports on the web...the whole reason he did it was to prove that aliens exist.
But tbh, I don't see how he could have caused damage, I mean if you're hacking into a system for data, you're just going to be downloading data, not causing damage. Apart from a bit of bandwidth on the system, I don't see how he did enough damage to result in a possible sentence of 70 years. And let's be honest, if one man can get into the US government's systems with the cause of downloading top secret data, what could an organised group who want to cause damage and steal really important data do?
