NASA's GEMINI "VTR" Transcripts - Astronaut UFO sightings from the days before Apollo

here is the latest video project from lunacognita..... which casts some fresh light on nasa's ever elusive methods for handling of ufo sightings.... the details which you will be observing are from nasa's official unclassified 'black box' transcripts which reflects in detail the discussions held between the astronauts.... which were recorded via the onboard 'voice tape recorder' during the gemini missions.... i had already posted these details in the NASA's Apollo DSE "Black Box" Transcripts thread.... but i guess its being missed.... and thought of starting this new thread..... cheers...

Before the Apollo program would ever be able to make the journey across the cis-lunar void to the Moon, NASA's astronauts first needed to learn how to fly, work, and live in space. Between 1965 and 1966, NASA flew an aggressive series of two-man missions into low-Earth orbit, where they practiced and tested many of the flying techniques, spacecraft systems, science and living skills that would be required to ensure that the voyage to and from the Moon was conducted as safely as possible. The flight program that NASA implemented in order to accomplish these lofty goals was known as Project GEMINI. In a mere 20 months time, 16 NASA astronauts flew a total of 10 missions aboard the GEMINI spacecraft, orbiting the Earth over 600 times while acquiring a wealth of space experience that in the following years would serve to help make the upcoming Apollo lunar program such a resounding success. The GEMINI astronauts were some of the first men to explore this new ocean over our heads that is known as 'space', and they did indeed see some amazing sights up there during their flights. Aboard each GEMINI spacecraft was a piece of equipment known as the "Voice Tape Recorder" (VTR). The purpose of the VTR was to give the astronauts the ability to verbally record any thoughts, comments, or observations throughout the course of each flight, primarily during the periods when they were not in radio contact with one of the MSFN (Manned Space Flight Network) ground stations spread out at various locations around the Earth. After radio contact was re-established, the VTR recordings made during the black out periods could then be "dumped" (down-linked) to the MSFN ground station below. Although originally classified, the transcripts of these VTR recordings from all 10 GEMINI missions can today be found in the NASA archives. These documents contain some very intriguing and revealing astronaut conversations that relate to various anomalies they were observing outside their spacecraft during the flights. This presentation highlights just a few of the many comments from various GEMINI missions that I found interesting. Cheers, LC

affirmative..... roger over

That's pure gold!

It's a wonder how our leaders can say there's nothing up there and say it with a straight face.

no debunking attempts?

This isn't even a job for me, I leave it to the real astronauts.

Astronauts Cordon Cooper and Edgar Mitchell, with NASA in those days, seemed monumentally unimpressed with these events. By the way, they served on an Apollo backup crew together in 1969, see www.spacefacts.de...

Gordon Cooper: "To my knowledge, the only thing that was ever seen on any of our space flights -- and believe me, all of us would like to have seen something -- was on Jim McDivitt's Gemini-7 mission where they saw this glint of something metallic off in the distance” -- FOX TV "Paranormal Borderlands" (hosted by Jonathan Frakes),interview with astronaut Gordon Cooper conducted by Yolanda Gaskins

Hey Kiuhy! ... i was wondering what happened to you,
and I'm glad to see your still active as well.


Incase you hadn't seen it here's an interesting video clip,
with McDivitt answering a question about seeing the UFO ...

If I ever see a good attempt,
i'll be sure to let everyone know about it


Since I have your attention Jim, I was wondering if you were aware of the video footage shown in one of the UFO hunters episodes, and also I was wanting to ask you if you could shed some light on it and maybe help to identify it or at least comment on it, and tell us what you think it might be?.


Here's a screen capture showing the object ...



It's only about 5 seconds worth of video footage and you can see it at the 00:16 to 00:22 mark in the video.

Here's the link to the video ...

McDivitt said the object he saw had two arm like things sticking out, so I'm wondering is this the actual video footage from the movie camera ??


What do you think?, please let us know.

Cheers

In your assessment, have I ever shed a new light on ANY of your favorite space UFO stories, that made you modify your views on anything?

I'll take a look anyway. Have you started any normal documentation searches on your own. Got the mission 'Scene List'? Got the Flight Plan and daily update for the time interval in question? You know, the basic context information that anyone seriously interested in seeking a real explanation would start with.

I just want to save time avoiding duplication.

I think McDivitt addresses it in this NASA oral history project.

It took me awhile to get the role of the 16-mm movie camera straightened out, too.

Just save me the download and tell me it doesnt say "Giant Space Robot" or "Alien Mining Drone"
