Quote from the article:
“I wrote that no astronaut has seen a UFO in
space. While Gordon Cooper thinks he saw
unexplained phenomena while flying in the 1950s, this obviously was not from space. Concerning claims that he has seen a UFO from
space, the 1999 Space.com article you refer to quotes Cooper saying ‘No, somebody
made a lot of money selling lies on that one… It was totally untrue, sorry to
say.’
Concerning Buzz Aldrin, he was misquoted, with the explanatory part
truncated from the interview as aired, as we explained in an earlier answer
here (use the search engine to find it).
Sorry, but there is no compelling evidence for space aliens, and
certainly not from NASA astronauts. Be
skeptical; there are a lot of false or misleading claims about UFOs
circulating.
