NASA and UFOs

Personally, I suspect NASA know more about UFOs and ETs.

I found this from NASA's website.

www.nasa.gov...

When you read the article, you will see that staff at NASA had a debate regarding an alleged sighting of a UFO by the crew of Apollo 16 in 1972. This article was published on 19 April 2004. Its an interesting article and similar to debates of photos and videos we have here on this forum.

The crew of the Apollo 16 believed they saw a disc shaped UFO flying close to them. They took a photo which was later analysed by staff at NASA who concluded that the 'UFO' was actually the reflection of a part of their module.

However there are a couple of points that don't sit right with me.

Firstly, the first line of the article is 'UFOs aren't necessarily alien spacecraft. And some purported UFOs aren't UFOs at all.'

Now, we all debate that UFOs could be alien spacecraft, time travellers from the future, weather balloons, Chinese lanterns, camera faults, yachts, birds, CGI etc etc.

I don't know about you and I would like your thoughts on this but the line 'UFOs aren't necessarily alien spacecraft. And some purported UFOs aren't UFOs at all' is a strange thing to say. To me this sounds like an admission that they know some UFOs are alien spacecraft or, they're not too sure themselves whether UFOs are alien spacecraft.

As far as I'm aware (although I maybe wrong), NASA has claimed they have had no contact with ETs and that we are alone in the universe for now. But we know of ex-NASA personnel who claim otherwise.

Also, we know there have been numerous sightings and footages of UFOs by astronauts prior to 2004, some of which are better quality than the one debated in the article.

So what do NASA think of all the other sightings prior to and after 2004? I've checked their website and I can only find this article. They obviously analyse other footage taken by crew. If they can make public their conclusions for this sighting, what about the other sightings?

I apologise if I did not make sense but I would appreciate your thoughts.

What I think NASA means by "UFOs aren't necessarily alien spacecraft. And some purported UFOs aren't UFOs at all" is that our country and possibly others have orbital capabilities.

TR3B? I guess that's possible. Perhaps even the new private space tourism industry is using decades old technology developed by the MIC and sold out to individual contractors.

That's just speculation, but I think if one were to look at the military and now private tech we have that it is safe to assume somebody, somewhere has something better.

your thread is readable and does make sense to me atleast. there are lots of recordings (audio and video)that i have heard or seen from nasa of astronaughts spotting ufo's but i have never come across one where they are all crapping there pants from seeing an actual alien spacecraft, but i suppose evidence like that would never make it onto you tube.

i do believe that we will find something out within the next decade or so as secrets are getting more difficult to keep under wraps as every day goes by. we live in an exciting time if you crave knowledge and fortunatly the chinese are a lot more open on the subject than western governments.

N A S A means "Never A Straight Answer"

Several astronauts tell stories of mysterious objects seen in space. The sightings that interest me the most are the earliest ones throughout the Apollo missions, when there werent as many man-made structures in our orbit and in space. People forget that these astronauts were the best of the best, our most trusted test pilots and technicians. It makes no sense to me how people can so easily write-off what some of these men have to say... but it makes perfect sense to me why NASA would want to keep this a secret.

this could be what they saw from appollo 11

Old news. Moving on. We are farmers, ba ba bum bum ba ba bum!

There are a large number of photographs and sightings by astronauts, yet anything suggestive of identifying an alien spacecraft still falls under the Federal government's "plan" for dealing with such problems.

Someone ought to tell NASA.

More astronaut testimony.

what they're probably saying is a hint hint that they probably have ufo's of their own or something. i've heard claims of spaceship like objects that we humans actually have. but what is more interesting is that ufo's could be demons, you know like the things talked about in the bible and religion and what not. there's some videos on stuff like that on youtube. pretty interesting.

I see no evidence at all that the crew saw a 'UFO' and thought anything about it or took any photos of IT.

Let me suggest that you imagined all of these 'facts' out of total incomprehension of the verbal description and the image.

Please read more carefully -- English is your native language, right?

As far as I can tell the half-moon was found after the flight in cine film being taken of the moon as they departed on their way home. They never reported noticing anything unusual -- except, hey, the frigging MOON nearby out the window.

Please correct me with checkable documentation if I need it. I'd do the same for you -- and just did so.

These guys were around during Apollo, and make it quite clear there were NO such sightings on spaceflights during their years of duty -- they refer to events on the ground before they were astronauts, or to stories they were told by others.

Or am I missing something? Did Cooper or Mitchell ever claim to have seen a UFO on one of their space missions?

You're right, there is some covert technology knocking about.

Some aspects of the UFO/alien phenomenon are difficult to explain without resorting to other dimensions. Religion has links to this aspect.

IDH also holds that UFOs are a modern manifestation of a phenomenon that has occurred throughout recorded human history, which in prior ages were ascribed to mythological or supernatural creatures.[2]

This one is a cracker. It has astronauts faking a receding earth shot at the window of the Apollo 11 module to make it appear that they were further away than in Earth orbit. The bit about the Earth shot starts at about 1min.

Apologies for not being able to embed Disclose.TV footage.

No, but they were NASA personnel and knew about UFOs. It's a thread about NASA and UFOs, isn't it?

Jesbus did you watch the footage or not.?Thgist of the movies is to tell you ET is out there as far as they are concerned.They surely arent gonna be able to make it much plainer what they think.
Who hasent seen this stuff by now, and the disclosure testimony too.
I dont know why the witnesses arent called up to congress by now, but id say that alone is evidence that the Gov boys dont want you to know about it.

I am very interested in finding out more information about this particular sighting as recorded by NASA cameras and presented by Santiago Garza and Jaime Maussan in 2008.

Sorry, I was concentrating on the OP's theme of the Apollo-16 film, the circumstances of which I believe he grossly (if innocently) misrepresented.

Cooper's and Mitchell's opinions still, as far as I can tell, have nothing to do with their experiences at NASA. What am i missing?
