While orbiting the moon in 1969, the Apollo 10 team heard 'weird music' Apollo astronauts who orbited the moon two months before Neil Armstrong's famous 1969 landing heard mysterious and unexplainable 'music' on its far side, out of the range of Earthly radio transmissions, it has emerged. Recently unearthed recordings made by NASA of the journey, which took the Apollo 10 capsule around the far side of the moon, show the astronauts reacting with surprise and confusion to an unearthly howling noise in their headsets. The sound began once the capsule was on an hour-long trip around the far side of the moon, out of the range of any Earth broadcast. At one point the baffled astronauts can be heard discussing whether they should tell NASA command or not.

They were on the far side of the moon, so it couldn't have come from Earth
The team debated whether to tell NASA command back home
Recordings of the event were declassified in 2008, and will be played on Science Channel's NASA's Unexplained Files this month

Keeping it "secret" was the dumb part. Most often there are explanations for such when so much electronic gear is involved.
It was probably Also sprach Zarathustra.
Too much. Somewhere out there is a Pink Floyd fan that has gotten lost in space. ;) "When bad men combine, the good must associate; else they will fall, one by one." Edmund Burke

Maurice Chatelain Maurice Chatelain in 1979 Chief of NASA Communications Maurice Chatelain In 1979 Maurice Chatelain, former Chief of NASA Communications Systems, confirmed that Neil Armstrong had reported seeing two alien spacecraft on the rim of a crater when he was walking on the moon. Chatelain was a respected scientist and engineer. He had received 11 patents and was formerly the head of Engineering Radar and Communications Systems for Ryan Electronics. Says Chatelain: "The encounter was common knowledge in NASA, but nobody talked about it until now. I think that Wally Schirra, aboard Mercury 8, was the first of the astronauts to use the code name "Santa Claus" to indicate the presence of flying saucers next to space capsules." James Lovell When James Lovell was on Apollo 8 he stated over his radio: "Please be informed that there is a Santa Claus," as he came around from the backside of the moon. Santa Claus was the code word used by NASA for alien spacecraft. Donald B. Ratsch Donald B. Ratsch is an investigator and researcher. His specialty is collecting film footage from NASA space flights that show UFOs being present during the space flights. In November 1997 a personal friend of his arranged for him to meet with a man who said he had worked for NASA during the Apollo space missions. The man has requested anonymity, but here is what he told Ratsch: During the Apollo missions he was one of the people who sat in front of the consoles monitoring information. The man was not exactly sure of which mission, but he figures it was most likely Apollo 12. He knew it did not happen during Apollo 11, because he was clear of the events surrounding the first landing on the moon, which was Apollo 11. He also knows it was not Apollo 13 because he distinctly remembers the problems surrounding the Apollo 13 flight. He recalls that one evening during one of the flights, things got rather slow and there were not a lot of people around. So the man tuned into the transmissions being broadcast from the spacecraft on the air-to-ground/ground-to-air communications system. Things were rather mundane until about 8:30 p.m. when he heard the following exchange: APOLLO: We have company. HOUSTON: Say again? APOLLO: I say we have company. (Short period of silence) HOUSTON: (Emphatically) You were told not to make transmissions such as that! Put it on the flight recorder and we'll discuss it when you get back! (Long period of silence)

There are a great many stories about US presidents seeing UFOs. Only a couple of the stories actually have strong enough evidence to back up the fact a sighting took place. One case with a lot of supporting evidence involves Ronald Reagan who had two sightings that we are aware of. Both of Reagan’s UFO sightings occurred when he was the 33rd Governor of California (1967 – 1975). The first occurred on the night that Reagan was invited to a party that actor William Holden was having in Hollywood. A number of key personalities were invited. Two of them, comedian Steve Allen, and actress Lucy Ball both told the story of Reagan’s UFO encounter.[1] Reagan was missing when the party began and the party was held up until he and Nancy arrived nearly an hour late. According to both Allen’s and Ball’s version of events Reagan was very excited. He described the fact that he and Nancy had seen a UFO while coming down the coast highway to Los Angeles and stopped to watch the event. Some unconfirmed stories of the event stated that the object actually landed. Lucy in her account of the event stated, “After he elected President, I kept thinking about that event, and wondered if he still would have won if he told everyone that he saw a flying saucer.” The other Reagan sighting occurred in 1974 just before Reagan ended his second term as governor. The story was told by Air Force Colonel Bill Paynter who became the pilot of Reagan’s Cessna Citation jet plane following his retirement from the Air Force. It a story Ronald Reagan told to Norman Miller, Washington Bureau Chief for the Wall Street Journal, the governor’s plane was making an approach to land in Bakersfield California. It was during the descent that Reagan noticed a strange light behind the plane. "We followed it for several minutes, Reagan told Miler. “ It was a bright white light. We followed it to Bakersfield and all of a sudden to our utter amazement it went straight up into the heavens." Paynter, the pilot stated, “"it appeared to be several hundred yards away" and it was "a fairly steady light until it begun to accelerate. Then it appeared to elongate. Then the light took off. It went up a 45 degrees angle at a high rate of speed. Everyone on the plane was surprised." Paynter added: "The UFO went from normal speed cruise to a fantastic speed instantly. If you give an airplane power, it will accelerate, but not like a "hot rod", and that's what this was like. Governor Reagan expressed amazement. I told the others I didn’t know what it was. The UFO went from a normal cruise speed to a fantastic speed instantly. If you give an airplane power it will accelerate - but not like a hotrod, and that is what this was like. We didn’t file a report on the object because for a long time they considered you a nut if you saw a UFO. "[2][3] Reagan, in his discussion of the sighting with Norman C. Miller added that he had told Nancy about the UFO, and they had done personal research on UFOs. This research had uncovered the facts that there were references to UFOs in Egyptian hieroglyphics. Reagan was telling his story in a very animated way. This led Millar to conclude that Reagan seriously believed in UFOs. He asked him, "Governor, are you telling me that you saw a UFO?" Suddenly, according to Millar, Reagan realized that he was talking to a reporter. "This look crossed his face," recalled Millar, "and he said let’s just say that I’m an agnostic." [1] The best account was written up in Lucy Ball’s book “Lucy in the Afternoon: An intimate Memoir of Lucille Ball” written by Jim Brochu, William Morrows and Company New York 1990, page 125 [2] Alan Braham Smith and Ken Potter, “”Reagan Saw UFO While Flying – And Ordered his Pilot to Follow It,” National Enquirer, October 11, 1988 [3] UFO Researcher Stanton Friedman interviewed Paynter years later. “I spoke with the pilot of his plane when Reagan was California Governor. I can't recall his name now, but Don Berliner, very up on aviation matters, immediately recognized the name. The pilot had 30,000 hours which is a very high number. He confirmed that the sighting occurred and that the quotes in the National Enquirer were accurate. (Subject: Re: Reagan And The Aliens – Friedman Sept. 16, 2003 “UFO Updates” List.)
