While on a mission in April 1979, Afanasyev left Star City, the USSR’s equivalent of NASA, to dock with the Salyut 6 space station. While the trip was underway, a metallic object turned towards them and followed them closely.
Afanasyev was able to get several pictures of it and estimated that the craft was 26-28 meters away. While he still had it within visual range, he continually communicated with the surface about what he was seeing.
When he returned from the mission, his film and cameras were confiscated. Finally, he was sworn to secrecy. It was only after the Soviet Union fell that he felt safe enough to share
.
Viktor Kovalenok and Viktor Savinykh
On May 5th, 1981, these two men were stationed on Salyut station. One day, Kovalenok caught sight of a finger shaped object in orbit with them. When he couldn’t figure out what it was, he called Savinkh over for help in determining the object’s size and distance. While Savinkh was preparing to capture a picture, it abruptly exploded. Once the cloud had cleared, a dumbbell shaped object was revealed. Interestingly, specialists on the surface recorded higher than usual radioactivity levels that day.
Gennadi Manakov and Gennadi Strekalov
The month was September and the year was 1990. Manakov and Strekalov were stationed on the Soyuz station. That day, they sky over the ocean they were passing was perfectly clear, but when they looked down, they were startled to find a large, silver disk hovering in the atmosphere. It was iridescent, and they judged it to be about 20-30 kilometers above the surface. When asked if it could have been an ice-berg, they firmly stated that it couldn’t have been one. The shape was that of a sphere, and it was entirely too large to be one.
My problem is what some UFO nuts CLAIM that astronauts have said -- that's mostly what you've been reading on the Internet. And much of that is bogus, or at least seriously misrepresented. I've checked directly with the quoted people whenever I could.
Your advice is good, and back at you -- let the ASTRONAUTS speak for themselves, NOT some intermediary who wants to use their honor and status for their OWN very different purposes.
Years ago..there was a TV documentary on NASA and UFO's, well anyway I am sure one of the astronauts said he saw a "winged entity" outside the space shuttle flying in the vacuum of space, and how ever he described it, it sounded like mothman or some demon type thing. I also remembered one of them saying they saw a multi colored ring like object..and I remember seeing footage of this object, but it was really far away from the camera ..I believe Gordon Cooper was the astronaut who saw this ring thing..

Outstanding post! I am not sure how much skeptics need to hear or see to be convinced.
On that point, I have an adversary on another board who has told me anything short of "alien blood" would be less than convincing to him. Meaning photos, testimonies, landing marks, and implants are less than convincing.
There is some extreme skepticism at work. The divide between believes and skeptics seems to be widening every day.

Jim, either you are being intellectually dishonest or these men are all liars.

US, before you even try to judge what an astronaut says he/she has seen, check to be sure it isn't some UFO nut making up a fictitious comment, for fun, ego, or profit. What the astronauts really say is interesting enough, but that often isn't good enough for people who want make-believe evidence for fun self-delusions.
No ! Not some UFO NUT but Astronaughts. So what astronaughts say "isnt good enough ", speak for yourself.
Please do show and tell,
The stage is yours

We're back to dimensions now?
Have we entered the 4'th density already?
Man, I don't notice a great deficit of people on the planet. I guess rapture felt that as a species, we're not ready yet.
But back to dimensions. 5'th dimension next year eh? I hope my tesseract doesn't break. It only works in the 4'th dimension.
It's an interesting mind exercise, wondering about space faring winged giants, did they come down to earth and mate with human women, are they sinister creatures masquerading as angels and gods.. god only knows.
It will never go much more than this however, like a kettle always ready to boil, but never ever capable of doing so.

Why do some people say the Astronauts are lying about aliens or UFO's, but telling the truth about going to the moon. If they lie, they are not credible.
Who's doing that? I believe what the astronauts say about their experiences in space. It's the people CLAIMING the astronauts said they saw UFOs, who are the liars. What's so hard to understand about that?
