Hmmnnn...
So far as Gordo Cooper goes, he has often, publicly, spoken about about the UFO subject, so i believe what this ite says about him...
But, I'm having hard time believing this stuff about the other astronauts. Yes, I believe they may have seen something, but I don't believe they
would talk about it, even in private, with an outsider.
However... I remember something Buzz Aldrin said on the Letterman show once: David asked him, pointedly, about UFOs, to which Buzz went into this
detailed story about two that Armstrong, collins, and himself tracked from the CSM Columbia's radar for awhile. Just as Letterman (and the audience)
were getting all excited, he smiled and said, to effect, that they were determined, later, to just be the side covers from the Saturn V's upper stage
(I believe the upper stage is called the "little Joe").
Now, he said this like a punchline... But, argueably, the way he delivered the punch was flat... as when someone says "Oh, I didn't mean that" but
you know that they DID. That is, he dropped the emphasis in his voice when he gave the real explanation. He, also, looked right into the camera at
that moment. It was weird... I've wondered, for years, if he was trying to say something without saying it.
