• The legendary astronaut described three bizarre sightings during a post-mission crew debriefing, including a “sizeable” object near the moon that left the crew baffled.
• Aldrin told officials: “The first unusual thing that we saw I guess was one day out or something pretty close to the moon. It had a sizeable dimension to it, so we put the monocular on it.”
• The second man on the moon also reported seeing strange flashes inside the cabin, saying: “I observed what I thought were little flashes inside the cabin, spaced a couple of minutes apart.”
• The bombshell revelations are part of a massive data dump ordered by former US President Donald Trump, exposing top-secret government records on Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena (UAP).
