Video shows UFO watching Apollo 15: were astronauts warned to leave the moon?

Written by Dr Michael Salla on April 19, 2015

Historic Apollo 15 video footage shows a saucer shaped UFO hovering over a crater apparently observing two moon walking astronauts. The Apollo 15 video was uploaded to YouTube on April 5, and raised the possibility that it is an advanced spacecraft monitoring the Apollo mission. Whistleblower and astronaut testimonies have revealed the Apollo 11 mission was monitored by two spacecraft hovering over a crater, allegedly giving a warning to NASA. The spacecraft may have been extraterrestrial in origin. Another more intriguing possibility is that the Apollo 15 UFO belonged to a highly classified space program, again warning Apollo astronauts and NASA from future moon missions.

In the video, astronauts Jim Irwin and David Scott are on the moon’s surface. Scott is heard giving commentary as he films Irwin and the surrounding terrain. Scott sweeps through an area showing a white floating saucer shaped object apparently hovering over a crater’s rim. His first comment when seeing the object is to say “whoops” (2:02 mins) and to then pan away. Scott focuses the camera on the ground which is curious given the strange hovering object near a crater. His “whoops” comment and immediate panning away suggests that he is deliberately trying not to focus in on UFO. Nevertheless, the camera sweeps past the object several times without stopping or focusing on it. This leaves the viewer wondering why he ignored the strange white object.

Scott’s behavior raises the possibility that he was under orders to ignore the UFO and instead film more innocuous features of the moonscape. Was his curious filming behavior a result of some warning NASA had received concerning the Apollo program?

Modern People magazine published what they claim to be Buzz Aldrin’s photographs of two UFOs watching Apollo 11 on the moon in their June 1975 issue. Click image for more photos.

A possible answer emerges from events associated with the 1969 Apollo 11 moon landing. After the arrival of the Apollo 11 lunar module on the moon’s surface, there was an alleged radio transmission from Neil Armstrong during a mysterious two minutes of radio silence. In the transmission, Armstrong said that there were giant UFOs hovering over the horizon watching the moonwalking astronauts.

According to Timothy Good, author of Above Top Secret (1988) HAM radio operators receiving VHF signals transmitted from Apollo 11 to NASA’s Houston headquarters, intercepted the following message which NASA screened from the public:

Mission Control:

What’s there? Mission Control calling Apollo 11.

Apollo 11:

These babies are huge, sir … enormous….Oh, God, you wouldn’t believe it! I’m telling you there are other space craft out there… lined up on the far side of the crater edge… they’re on the moon watching us. (Above Top Secret, p. 384.)

Maurice Chatelain, a retired NASA communications engineer who helped develop the communications system used in the Apollo moon missions, said in 1979 that Armstrong’s sighting of two UFOs over a lunar crater was being deliberately kept from the media and public by NASA: “The encounter was common knowledge in NASA, but nobody has talked about it until now.”

According to Timothy Good, Dr Vladimir Azhazha, a physicist and Professor of Mathematics at Moscow University at the time, also was aware of the secret Armstrong radio transmission:

Neil Armstrong relayed the message to Mission Control that two large, mysterious objects were watching them after having landed near the moon module. But his message was never head by the public – because NASA censored it. (Above Top Secret, p. 384)

So why did NASA eventually terminate the Apollo program if advanced spacecraft were already there and watching the landings? The answer according to Armstrong, as relayed by an unnamed Professor at a NASA symposium, is as follows:

Professor: What really happened out there with Apollo 11?

Armstrong: It was incredible … of course, we had always known there was a possibility … the fact is, we were warned off. There was never any questions then of a space station or a moon city.

Professor: How do you mean “warned off”?

Armstrong: I can’t go into details, except to say that their ships were far superior to ours both in size and technology – Boy, where they big! … and menacing …. No, there is no question of a space station.

Professor: But NASA had other missions after Apollo 11?

Armstrong: Naturally – NASA was committed at that time, and couldn’t risk a panic on earth…. But it really was a quick scoop and back again. (Above Top Secret, p. 186)

If NASA was indeed warned off the moon, then subsequent missions such as Apollo 15 only went forward as a public relations exercise to avoid a “panic on earth” over the early termination of manned moon missions.

The saucer shaped UFO filmed by Apollo 15 may well be an advanced spacecraft there to monitor the Apollo mission, and to give a firm warning to NASA to put an end to the program. If so, was the UFO extraterrestrial in origin, or is there another more conventional explanation?
 
Recently, two whistleblowers have publicly emerged revealing the existence of secret space programs with bases on the moon. Randy Cramer and ‘Corey’ (aka GoodETxSG), both claim that they were first taken to a secret base on the moon in 1987 as 17 year olds where they separately began 20 year tours of duty with their respective space programs. They called the secret moon base, Lunar Operations Command, and claimed it is used by personnel belonging to secret space programs, and visiting extraterrestrial spacecraft. In an email, “Corey” claims that Lunar Operations Command began to be built in the late 1950’s over an abandoned moon base. If Corey’s and Randy’s testimonies are accurate, Lunar Operations Command was already in operation during the Apollo moon landings from 1969 to 1972.

According to Cramer, in early 2014 he received orders from his military superiors in a covert branch of the US Marine Corps to reveal the existence of secret space programs taking place on the Moon, Mars and elsewhere in our solar system. In Sept 2014, Corey publicly emerged claiming that he has been contacted by a relatively new group of extraterrestrial visitors that are facilitating public disclosure of secret space programs and visiting extraterrestrial life. Corey claims that one of the secret space programs, “Solar Warden,” is part of an alliance of secret space programs and visiting extraterrestrials to disclose the truth to the world public. Most startling is his claim that among this space alliance are members of between five to seven ancient human civilizations that have their own ongoing space programs.

The Apollo 15 video of a saucer shaped UFO on the moon may be hard evidence of an advanced spacecraft monitoring the moon landings. Scott’s strange filming behavior was likely due to orders he received as a result of a warning delivered to Apollo 11 astronauts.The craft associated with the Apollo 15 video and the original Apollo 11 radio transmission by Armstrong, may not have been extraterrestrial in origin, but instead belonged to a secret space program that did not want NASA to establish a permanent presence on the moon. As a primarily civilian agency, NASA’s presence threatened to expose the activities of one or more secret space programs and/or extraterrestrial civilizations on the moon. This is especially plausible if a facility such as Lunar Operations Command was already in operation.

NASA was warned against continuing the Apollo program in 1969, and astronauts from subsequent landings were told not to film anything that might reveal artificial structures on the moon or advanced spacecraft monitoring the final Apollo missions. One thing is clear from the Apollo 15 video, a UFO appears to be monitoring the moon walking astronauts – the key question is: “does the UFO belong to extraterrestrials, a highly classified space program, or an ancient human civilization?”
