The first moon landing played a vital role in the history of modern human space exploration. What the Apollo 11 astronauts experienced on the moon gave rise to many conspiracies, such as UFOs on the moon, ancient alien cities, the Hollow Moon theory, etc. These theories were widely supported by many credible experts, but the astronauts themselves never confirmed them, at least not officially.
Al Worden, the Command Module Pilot of the Apollo 15 lunar mission in 1971, once said in an interview that Earth was visited by a spacefaring civilization, then they settled here and now we know them as humans. Also, the late Italian journalist Sergio Zavoli claimed that Neil Armstrong confirmed to him that they had been observed by someone else on the Moon.
A recently published article in Avvenire, an Italian daily newspaper titled “Cose dell’altro mondo (Non noi soltanto)”, claims that Apollo 11 astronaut and the first man to set foot on the Moon Mr. Armstrong saw something mysterious on the Moon that he kept watching the astronauts. The article is written by Alessandra Zavoli, wife of the great Italian politician and journalist Sergio Zavoli. He passed away on August 4, 2020.
“I [Sergio] interviewed Neil Armstrong. The astronaut confided in me that during the final phase of the approach to the satellite, he had seen a group of mysterious objects nearby. At 4:05 a.m. on July 21, 1969, in Houston – when [Mission Control Center] asked him about the interference in radio transmissions – he replied: ‘I see huge objects, they look like spaceships and, what’s worse, they are looking at us insistently.’”
On October 15, 1969, the three Apollo 11 astronauts Neil Armstrong, Michael Collins and Buzz Aldrin arrived at the Rai studios for a press conference hosted by Sergio Zavoli.
NASA officials have denied any reports of UFOs on the Moon or simply refused to comment on such claims, but evidence has recently been released that the Apollo 11 astronauts witnessed a mysterious phenomenon during their trip to the Moon. It took seven years to digitize old files and they are now available here .
In the audio files, one can hear the astronauts’ alarm when they spoke about a radiant object that had an oblong shape. The speed of the unidentified object was very significant and the object itself left the moon’s orbit, which can be understood from these recordings.
In 1987, British UFO researcher Timothy Good wrote a book titled “Above Top Secret: The Worldwide UFO Cover-Up,” in which he claimed that Neil Armstrong saw “other” spacecraft. It was the most bizarre claim ever made. Is there any truth to Mr. Good’s book?
Timothy Good was once called “Britain’s leading UFO researcher” by the British weekly newspaper the Observer. After releasing his book, he was involved in the initial publication of the alleged Majestic 12 documents. Later, according to skeptic Phil Klass, Good questioned the authenticity of at least some of the documents. In 2007, the CIA cited Above Top Secret as one of the sources that contributed to “the idea that the CIA secretly hid its UFO research.” Additionally, in May 2019, Blink-182’s Tom DeLonge credited Good’s book with “opening his eyes” to UFOs, leading to DeLonge’s development of To The Stars.
According to Good, a former MI6 agent told him that Neil Armstrong suggested to her that there were “other” spacecraft on the Moon when Apollo 11 landed in 1969. In his book “Above Top Secret,” Good wrote that there are certain people (whose identities are still questionable) who have claimed that Armstrong did indeed encounter UFOs on the Moon.
Otto Binder, Maurice Chatelain and Dr. Vladimir Azhazha are some of the names Mr. Good mentioned in his book who worked for NASA during Apollo 11. According to Mr. Good, they all claimed that some radio amateurs received the message from NASA, in which Armstrong said he had seen other spacecraft. But there is more to the story.

In addition to Armstrong, the second man on the Moon named Buzz Aldrin may shed some light on the alleged Apollo 11 UFO encounter on the Moon. Documentary filmmaker James Fox claimed in a podcast that he met with Fay Ann Aldrin, the sister of the second man on the Moon, Buzz Aldrin. According to Ann, Buzz Aldrin said that “something followed them to the Moon.”
Fox stated that Aldrin was ready to tell his story, before backing out of an interview at the last minute for fear of being labeled a “UFO nutcase.” Although he did not tell his story to James Fox, Aldrin spoke publicly to the Science Channel, claiming that the objects were following Apollo 11, to which NASA responded by issuing a statement, claiming that Aldrin had been taken out of context and that the objects seen by the crew were “spacecraft upper stage separation panels.”
Aldrin has previously claimed that there is a monolith on Mars’ moon Phobos. He said: “We should visit Mars’ moon, there’s a monolith there, a very unusual structure on this little potato-shaped object that orbits Mars once every seven hours. When people find it, they’ll say, ‘Who put that there? Who put that there?’ Well, the universe put it there, or if you choose, God put it there.”
Buzz’s involvement in the Phobos monolith mystery has encouraged UFO hunters and other researchers to look for signs of alien life on Mars. NASA has been exploring the universe for decades and has plausibly encountered UAPs on many occasions, otherwise they would never turn off a live feed when strange objects enter the screen.
Mr. Armstrong has never publicly discussed his thoughts on UFOs and aliens. However, that hasn’t stopped him from continuing to search for answers. Did you know that he once set out to uncover the truth behind a giant cave in the Andes that is linked to the extraterrestrial hypothesis?
Still no one knows why Mr. Armstrong agreed to go on the quest with Stan Hall. But he was hailed as a hero by the Shuar people when he got there. The people who watched him climb down the ladder into the cave witnessed another great step for humanity. He was intrigued by his scientific exploration of the lunar surface and was eager to know what was left behind in our galaxy. Armstrong said the expedition was as big as the moon.
