UFOs and NASA
By Rob Simone
FATE :: August 2005

One of the primary goals of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) is to discover new life in the universe. From the many images captured by their cameras and the growing testimony of their astronauts, it seems intelligent life has been discovered and is trying to discover us.

Dr. Edgar Mitchell, Apollo 14 astronaut, was the sixth man to walk on the Moon. He has spoken out on the subject of UFOs and how the extraterrestrial issue is handled in some circles of the military and government:

I have met with credible professionals within two governments who have testified to their own firsthand experiences with close encounters. They include members of military intelligence and government whose official duties involved the extraterrestrial presence. As is expected, they were all bound by strict security oath agreements which prevented them from disclosing any of this.

Mitchell has also stated that military personnel with whom he has spoken have seen actual alien bodies in the the course of their duties.

Dr. Mitchell appeared as a guest on my talk show recently and I asked him about the continuing coverup, conspiracy, and truth embargo related to the UFO phenomenon. He had this to say: There has been, as we both know, considerable effort within most governments to suppress this information and to limit what is being said about it. Let's hope that it's coming to an end.

In 1965 Gordon Cooper orbited the planet 22 times on the last single-manned space mission.

In 1955 Cooper was stationed at Edwards Air Force Base. While supervising the filming of a new landing facility for F-86 fighter jets, he and his crew observed a disc-shaped craft that hovered close to the ground, extended three retractable landing gear, and set down near the runway. The film crew approached and continued filming. Cooper states that the craft then lifted off the ground, retracted its gear, and soared off into the sky. When he developed the film it clearly showed the event he had witnessed. The film was then sent to Washington where it was classified and remains so to this day.

When asked about the current location of this film and other evidence of UFOs captured by the Air Force, Cooper said that within the government and the military, it was impossible to learn where such documents were sent unless you were directly involved, and he was not.

I was speaking recently at a conference on the subject of comparative UFO mythology of Asian and Middle Eastern traditions. After the talk an older gentleman approached me and told of his involvement with the Apollo missions as a communications engineer. His duties were to repair and maintain the two-way radios in the spacesuits used by the astronauts on the lunar surface. During a training exercise at NASA he overheard a conversation between two astronauts on their in-helmet transmitters. They were talking about a briefing they had the day before about the reality of UFOs.

NASA told all the Apollo astronauts about unknown craft that had been seen in space on previous missions and that they were not ours. This briefing was done about two weeks before blast-off so they would have time to adjust to this new reality and prevent any panic if and when they saw alien spacecraft during their mission. NASA most likely gave them instructions on how to handle their radio communications and photography in the event of a sighting.

It would seem NASA secretly briefed most if not all of the Apollo astronauts. To this day some will only talk about it off the record ...
