Apollo 16 (UFO) Video

Does anyone know if this video was proven to be fake? a planet? a reflection? a meteor?

I read that the movement of the camera is supposedly the astronaut pulling the camera away for a brief moment to take a better look with his own eyes.

Some other information regarding this video:

Date: 1975
From: NASA

Good find, but for some reason the other videos on www.chez.com aren't working for me

Think it is a cool thing to look at, doesn't seem to be a meteor..wouldn't that be moving? I'm not sure if it could be a planet - unless its earth, which I highly doubt - because it looks to close to me. Only problem I have with this video is that the moon looks a little too 'dull' or something to me...but maybes that is just me. Nice find.

wow nice site...even reveals other missions...

it's more than likely real, as there are some reports on this site about that...and other various locations, people, and 'wackos'......

and i see what u mean by the moon...it almost looks, i dont know, plastic or something.....

I've seen this footage before, I believe it's fake although sometimes it does spook me. There's something about it, I don't know what it is, that makes me wonder about it.

I have the same problem, I can't download any of the other files on the site.

Could it be that the moon looks like 1000 times smaller than in real life? Just a thought.

Here is what appears to be the story which goes along with this video.

--begin quoted text:

An important event occurred in the history of science space in the year
1972. An exciting event that will have far-reaching ramifications for
the global society. Thanks to a "Freedom Of Information Act" request,
the F.O.I.A. has yielded NASA Apollo 16 UFO footage that has been kept
hidden from the general public for 25 years. The F.O.I.A. request was
filed by a gentleman by the name of Samuel Sherman, President of
Independent International Pictures Corporation, Old Bridge, New Jersey.
The footage, shot by one of the Apollo 16 crewmembers using a 16mm
cameral just prior to lunar orbit confirms what former NASA Chief of
Communications, Maurice Chatelain of the 70's is now admitting. He is
now admitting that all Apollo and Gemini flights were followed, both at
a distance and sometime also quite closely, by space vehicles of
extraterestrial origin. He says, "Everytime the astronauts informed
Mission Control, who then ordered absolute silence." The 16mm Apollo 16
footage, about 25 seconds shows a disc shaped object with a dome on top
(out in the blackness of outer space) fairly close to the Apollo
scacecraft. The moon is at the right of the screen. At the end of the
footage the saucer has receded into the far distance. For anyone
interested in ordering this important video from NASA, just ask for
Apollo 16 File Roll 9361. A few frames from the footage and the video
itself can be viewed at
personal.netwrx.net... The
saucer in the Apollo 16 film has a startling similarity and resemblence
to a saucer captured on video moving over Mexico City very recently.
This recent video, August 6, 1997 is touted to be the clearest, sharpest
and most important UFO video in history, of all time, bar none. Some
stills and the movie (about 22 seconds) of the saucer as it moves behind
a building in Mexico City can be viewed at:
personal.netwrx.net... Note
the striking similarity between the Mexico saucer and the Apollo 16
saucer of 1972.

The post is followed by a long debate over the video.

i don't know about this footage at all. it's bairly on any other sites. if this really was officialy revealed by the gov't through the FOIA, then wouldn't have more sites and space related news sites picked up on this? it also doesn't make sence to me that the US gov't would release footage of UFO's that were classified.

and that mexico city ufo is a fake. it was done by some video effects studio down in mexico (if i remember correctly). i mean when you think about it. imagine the hundreds of thousands of people that would have seen that. that would have made headlines all over the world. there should be tons of pictures of it from all angles taken by people in that area. there should have been a large panic in the city with with a ufo flying that low and slow above the city. something like that would not be ignored by the media. there should have been a big buzz about it back when it supposedly happened, but did any of that stuff happen? no.

i can't find any links at the moment that explain it being a fake. too many other sites showing how "amazing" and "rare" this footage is that i need to go through. here's one that has a few pics and a quicktime vid of it though www.jman5.com...

I agree with you jra, on the mexico video except for one thing - The media DID infact catch and it WAS on the Mexican news stations across the country of Mexico. I saw a program on this a while back. That is all I know about the Mexico UFO though

A few years ago my sister borrowed a VHS tape from a professor in some college class she was taking. It was a mix of news and amature footage about one of the most active UFO events in Mexico City. I forget most of the details, maybe someone can help me out. It would have been in the 1990's and it was in time with some other astonomical event. The video was extremely convincing because her professor was either there or got it from someone who lived there while visiting. Anyway, it showed shots of UFO's that I've never seen anywhere else, and I've looked. I have found some sites that have small portions of a few of them though but never the full clips. The point of him having it and showing it to the class was to point out how the news coverage here in the US covers up events like this. Even the similar footage I've seen always seems to be cut short compared to the video. Like someone wanted to let out just enough to make it impossible to verify, but not hide it completely. In comparison the video with raw video, from multiple people and locations was long clips, with no cuts, just watching the UFO's for minutes at a time, poking in and out of clouds, drifting behind buildings and back out again, almost like playing or trying to show examples or proof of themselves. I wish to god that I had snagged a copy but at the time I figured it would make it public eventually anyway, stupid me!

The link you posted with the Mexico City clip may be from the same time period, but the difference is these shots I saw were like a minute or two long, solid and didn't look all cheesy edited and stuff like the ones you find on web sites. I'm starting to think even the so called UFOligist's who are supposed to be exposing this evidence is editing out anything that would prove 100% valid.

"UFO No Longer Unidentified"

The video link isnt working for me .. ?

Also, NASA is obviously going to go to all extents not to reveal anything about ETs or possible ETs even if there was a clear example of one.

Very curious. All five links to the original video are down, leaving only the NASA explanation page functioning.

That said, the explanation does seem entirely plausible, but of course you can't go and check it out for yourself...

I just read the nasa link that was posted above

nasa

UFOs aren't necessarily alien spacecraft. And some purported UFOs aren't UFOs at all. Take the example from Apollo 16.

So is nasa saying that since all UFO's aren't necessarily alien spacecraft then some of them are?

I agree, what a vague answer to give. "Necessarily" geez, next theyll be announcing aliens are real

personally i dont believe any astronauts walked on the moon.(dont go mad now chaps please) it was all staged to make the united states look better than the russians. thats my opinion..

also try and get a hold off someting funny happend on the way to the moon when neil armstrong buzz (the yawner aldrin) and michael colllins)were in low earth orbit when the faked it they let on to be loads of miles away from earth. they darkend out the lunar module windows and stuck a dumy earth like sticker on the window to make it look like they were away from earth.when they werent....if you can get this video look @ how you can see one of the astronauts arms covering the same window with the earth impression making it like like a terminator on the earth. aslo look for if you are into to this sorta of thing called the dark side of the moon...its a documentry.coming back to buzz aldrin this guy interviewing him in the street gets in his face about him lieing about walking on the moon he really gets on his nerves and buzz clocks him one exellent why would you lose your cool. like that if it wasnt real...
i no you guys on here might think im talking crap but ive seen these videos.buzz aldrin is full of it i think and why did all the ppl that made the fake moon landings die 1 year or 2 years after it was shot (so that they couldnt tell anyone......
