SUBJECT: MESSAGE THREAD ON APOLLO 11 AND UFO SIGHTING FILE: UFO728 I decided to have a little fun recently by irrevently tossing this snippet from the FIDO UFO echo onto Usenet and seeing just what kind of bite I would get.. :-)) Lookee what happenned :^_) ---begin included text-------------------------------------------------- Maybe NASA would like to explain this?? -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Date: 01-05-92 17:53 From: Sidney Csoke To: All Subj: Apollo 11 encounter UFO's DID APOLLO 11 ENCOUNTER UFO's ON THE MOON? I received secret documents on such an event. I am taking a risk by making this public, but I figure it's worth it. . According to hitherto reports, both Neil Armstrong and Edwin "Buzz" Aldrin saw UFO's shortly after the historic landing on the moon in Apollo 11 on July 21/1969. One of the astronauts referred to a "light" in or on a crater during a televised transmission, folllowed by a request from mission control for further information. Nothing more was heard. According to former NASA employee Otto Binder, radio hams with their own VHF receiving facilities that bypassed NASA's broadcasting outlets picked up the following exchange in the next letter. This is a transmission received from Apollo 11 after the lunar landing. . MISSION CONTROL: What's there? Mission control calling Apollo 11. APOLLO 11: These babies are huge, sir...enormous....Oh, God, you wouldn't believe it! I'm telling you there are other spacecraft out there...lined up on the far side of the crater edge...they're on the moon watching us... . This is now a classified interview between an anonymous professor and Neil Armstrong referring to the above event. . PROFESSOR: What really happened out there with Apollo 11? ARMSTRONG: It was incredible...of course, we had always known there was a possibility ...the fact is, we were warned off. There was never any question then of a space station or moon city. PROFESSOR: How do you mean "warned off"? ARMSTRONG: I can't go into details, except to say that their ships were far superior to ours both in size and technology-Boy, were they big!....and menacing....No, there is no question of a space station. PROFESSOR: But NASA had other missions after Apollo 11? ARMSTRONG: Naturally - NASA was committed at that time, and couldn't risk a panic on earth....But it really was a quick scoop and back again... ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Don -- -* Don Allen *- // Only | Are you ready for SETI?

That is, a statement which is not true. After a while, one gets to be pretty good at recognizing them. The activities described did not occur. I'm pretty sure the Apollo project didn't generate *any* SECRET documents. But you won't find any "official" declarations about UFO's other than those on spacelink.msfc.nasa.gov. Here's what I downloaded from MSFC: > >UFO INFORMATION > >SPACELINK NOTE: This statement is excerpted from QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS About >Aeronautics and Space, which can be found under main menu 7, item 10. >---------------------------------------------------------------------- > >Q: DO UFO's REALLY EXIST? > >A: NASA has no factual knowledge about UFO's, nor any data > on possible life-forms on other planets.
