Question

Answer 1

He's fingered us, guys. The game's up. He knows that every other answerer on Astronomy and Space is a NASA stooge determined to cover up the existence of aliens.

Let's all go to YouTube and see if we can disparage the videos there, instead.

EDIT: Serves me right for thinking people understand irony.

Answer 2

Buzz believed that it was not part of the spacecraft - but he was wrong. And maybe still is, I don't know if he got briefed about this, as he correctly decided not to be too specific on radio.

It was a SLA panel from the launch vehicle. Telescope sightings of these huge panels had been common from Earth. While the S-IVB was 6000 miles away, because it did a propulsive propellant dump (forcing the remaining propellant out through the nozzle of the engine without combustion, creating a small impulse)  a few minutes after the separation from the CSM/LM-stack, the SLA panels did not have rocket engines or other means to change their course. As long as the astronauts did no major course correction, these panels stayed close to the spacecraft, first moving slowly away, and later even came closer to the initial trajectory of the spacecraft. But because the  course corrections and the lunar orbit insertion, there was never a collision risk with these panels.

Of course it was an Unidentified Flying Object until this was confirmed.

Buzz Aldrin also experienced typical space problems: You can't trust your eyes on distances in space. If you don't have any indication, how large a object is, you have no indication how far it really is in space or how fast it is moving relative to you.  

Astronauts had the same problems on the moon, as a distant huge boulder and a close small boulder look almost exactly the same. On Earth, the distant boulder would become blurry and gray or blueish by the atmosphere and you get used to this optical phenomena your whole life long - but in space is no atmosphere.

That is also the cause of one collision in space, when a progress freighter hit Mir at high speed - the astronauts lost sight of it and when they found it again, they had not been able to estimate it's speed and distance correctly. Instead of far away and slow, it was close and fast.

Of course, it would now be easier to invite you all to make a trip into space and experiment there. But there is a small problem...

The change in shape just comes from the optics. When you don't know the range, you need a sextant. The sextant on-board the Apollo spacecraft required maneuvers to see the object.

Buzz also suspected it might have been the Russian probe launched around Apollo 11, but this followed a completely different trajectory.

Answer 3

i saw on the discovery channel that he saw sumfin outside and none of them said nethinv bout it coz the media n stuff were listning 2 their radio comunications and didnt wana say nething. think its benn unclasified now . so my answers yes :)

and i sure it had video of aldrin saying it

not too many months ago

Answer 4

I guess that will come as news to Mr Aldrin, too!

Answer 5

Dude, you used to actually seem like you were trying to figure stuff out, you were just gullible.  Now you're just being ignorant on purpose.

I just watched the whole video.  He _NEVER_ said he saw an "alien space ship".  He said he saw a UFO.  Do you know what a UFO is?  _Unidentified_ flying object.  An alien space ship is necessarily NOT a UFO because it's IDENTIFIED as an alien space ship.

The video never showed, and no one ever described, the UFO performing any kind of maneuver that would indicate it had intelligent guidance or some kind of on board propulsion.  It was drifting next to the ship.  Guess what the millions of tons of space debris does up there?  It drifts, and reflects sunlight so it looks lit up.

YES there are UFO's in earth orbit.  There's millions of tons of debris, both natural and manmade, floating around the planet.  This is not big news.

The ignorance of the people in that video is astounding.  One guy said something along the lines of 'This is proof that UFO's exist.'  Well yeah, no S**t, Sherlock.  The only people who think UFO's don't exist are as ignorant as the people who think UFO means 'alien space ship.'

If this is your idea of good evidence, you've got a looong way to go before anyone's going to take you seriously.  That is, anyone beside other gullible people.

Here's a tip:  Quit trying to prove yourself right.  When you try to prove yourself right, you start from the *assumption* that you're right to begin with and ignore everything that says otherwise.  And then you make yourself look like a fool.  You're doing the exact same thing the religious folks do when they try to prove the earth is only 6000 years old.

Answer 6

No I didn't, but that might have something to do with him not having seen an alien spaceship.

Answer 7

Hello Dr. Moonfaker you may have noticed that I answered a question you answered talking about the moon landing. I am here to tell you that you are utterly wrong and utterly ignorant. The moon landing was real and you can through whatever conspiracy theories you want at me, including the Van Allen radiation belts and I will single handedly shoot them down one by one.

And yes, we all know that Apollo astronauts supposedly say "ufo's". No they are not alien space ships. Like I said, I could go into detail, but after reading some of your answers I am not sure if you would be able to comprehend.

Supposedly, you say you are a self taught scientist when you are anything but. Sure you may be self taught, but it is obvious you either didn't pay attention to yourself or you relied on YouTube and the History Channel to teach you which are two of the worst sources of information.

Keeping in mind that this man is in his late 70's, I would personally take anything this man says with a grain of salt. Don't get me wrong, he is an asset to American history, but it is obvious his mental health is deteriorating.

And I am a NASA fan, and I am here to say that I obviously know more than you so if I don't know jack, you just degraded yourself even further than you have already done so with your absurd answers. Why do you even come around here if first off you have nothing correct and supportive to say, and second obviously couldn't care less about the study of astronomy.

Talk to me once you start using real sources for information, and actually study the lunar module and the radiation belts in detail, and then we will have this discussion but I refuse to argue with a person who is obviously too ignorant, and not smart enough to listen and understand.

Do you believe that aliens are abducting people? Because if so it is obvious that you know nothing about astronomy and have the cerebral capacity of an ant.

EDIT: Excuse the childish language but, OMG you actually think that the mars rovers are fake?! Wow. Just wow. How utterly stupid can you be?

Oh look you gave me a thumbs down... WILL MY LIFE EVER BE THE SAME?!

Never mind now I'm over it.

I would give Tom A and nysenutz a thumbs up but I think you have to be level 2 or greater for that...

Answer 8

Thats a fil clip from "when good astronauts go bad 3".

What a load of rubbish!!! Dont you think a bigger deal would have been made of this. My god that was 40 years ago!!

Make some sense plz

Answer 9

Did you know that you are talking b.s.?
