In the past Mitchell said he never saw any UFO personally.

Hi everyone,
On the Wednesday night YouTube program, Earthfiles, Linda Moulton Howe played a recording of astronaut Edgar Mitchell spilling all the beans on the reality of the UFO / UAP phenomenon. Absolutely incredible if you ask me. The way he describes the whole thing is just amazing to me.
I knew they were real years ago, I’m 62 and it’s great to hear an American hero telling the truth for once. Give it a listen.
Edgar Mitchell starts at the 27:17 time stamp on the transcript of the show.
Enjoy
I heard Buzz Aldrin tell a story about a "UFO" he saw on his way to the moon, but what the storyteller left out was that Buzz also said he was 99.99% sure he knew exactly what it was (on the Larry King show), so was it really a "UFO"?

Yes sir, him and Buzz and many, many others have testified as such.
Have you seen the documentary "Unacknowledged" (2017) yet..?
You would enjoy hearing and seeing these UFO revelations in their very own words.
Here is a link to those people featured in this "expose' ":

Yes it was explained rationally, by Scott Carpenter who saw the same thing, he was able to identify the source.

That doesn't help much in this thread, since you didn't link to what you shared before.

I met John Glenn and asked him personally about what he saw.
I’ve shared it here before.
What were these fireflies? In the movie “The Right Stuff” the fireflies were given the illusion of being mystical or perhaps alien — or maybe part of Glenn’s imagination. People in mission control were worried the heat shield on his spacecraft could be falling apart.
The answer wasn’t confirmed until the next Mercury mission, Aurora 7, with astronaut Scott Carpenter on board in May 1962. Carpenter also saw the fireflies, or snowflakes, as he called them, and quickly could identify the source. They were tiny white pieces of frost from the side of the spacecraft. Condensation gathered on the outside of the spacecraft as the capsule passed from the cold orbital darkness and warm sunlight, and then froze again, creating a layer of frost. As the spacecraft again came into sunlight, the frost flakes would come off and float around the capsule. The sunlight also illuminated them, making them “luminescent.” When Carpenter banged on the side of the capsule, more flakes came off and were visible.

Buzz has made it clear that the UFO stories associated with his name are bull$hit.
Mitchell has made it clear he has NEVER had a personal UFO experience and knew of NONE by other astronauts while at NASA.
Why do you guys insist they're lying?
