L'UFO della Gemini VII: il “bogey” di Frank Borman

di Paolo Attivissimo. Questo articolo è apparso inizialmente nel blog Nufologia .

Un lettore, Luca, mi segnala il caso di uno dei presunti avvistamenti di UFO da parte degli astronauti citati spesso dai siti ufologici : quello di Frank Borman e James Lovell durante la missione Gemini VII, nel dicembre del 1965. L'episodio viene raccontato attribuendo agli astronauti delle comunicazioni radio che parlano inequivocabilmente di un veicolo non identificato e la narrazione è spesso accompagnata dalla fotografia mostrata qui accanto.

La versione di Misteriufo :

Durante la seconda orbita Borman indicates a bright object in front of the capsule, which can not be the rocket, as the latter is also visible through the door. Later are photographed strange bluish light, equipped with vaporous appendices, which pass under the Gemini. For the first sighting, NASA speaks of an unknown vector fragment into orbit, perhaps the remains of a Titan, but the NORAD (the body which follows the routes of every satellite) states: 'and' impossible that remains of a Titan or any other missile can be found in that position ". For the second sighting was talk of lightning in the upper atmosphere.

version of CUN (National UFO Center) italiano :

Nel Dicembre del 1965, anche gli astronauti Gemini James Lovell e Frank Borman videro un UFO nel corso della seconda orbita del loro volo record di 14 giorni.
Borman riportò di aver visto un'astronave sconosciuta poco distante dalla loro capsula. Il Controllo Gemini a Cape Kennedy gli disse che stava osservando
I'ultimo stadio del loro stesso razzo Titan. Borman confermò di poter vedere perfettamente il razzo, ma che poteva vedere anche qualcosa di completamente diverso. Questa comunicazione fu riportata durante il volo di James Lovell sulla Gemini 7:
Lovell: "Oggetto non identificato a ore 10 in alto".
Controllo: "Qui Houston. Ripetete, Sette"
Lovell: "Ho detto che we have an unidentified object at 10 o'clock high "
Control:" Gemini 7, is the actual sighting or a rocket? "
Lovell:" We have several actual sightings. "
Control:" Distance or estimated size? "
Lovell: "We have also seen the rocket."

Aliens Mysteries and also a piece of audio .

Going to check the facts published Nasa.gov , the Gemini VII mission took place from 4 to 18 December 1965 and was aboard Frank Borman (commander pilot) and James Lovell (pilot), both in their first spaceflight. The two astronauts established an endurance record that stood for five years.

The archives of NASA provide the ' original audio and the transcript of radio communications the mission, which contains this exchange when it comes to "bogey" , military aviation jargon indicating an airplane enemy or unidentified. It is the only reference to a "bogey" entire transcript of communications to and from Earth. "C" is the commander Borman; "CC" is the Capcom, or the employee to communicate with the astronauts is on the ground, in the control center in Houston.


C Gemini VII here. Houston, how do you read?
CC Loud and clear, VII. Go ahead.
C I have a bogey at 10:00 o'clock high.
CC This is Houston. Say again, VII.
C Said we have a bogey at l0:00 o'clock high.
CC Roger.
CC Gemini VII, is that the booster or is that an actual sighting?
C ...
CC Say again, VII.
C Said ... we have several - looks like ... actual sighting.
CC Do you have any more information, estimated dis- tance, or size?
C We also have the booster in sight.
CC Understand you also have the booster in sight. Roger.
C ... there are very many - looks like hundreds of little particles going by from the left out about 3 or 4 miles.
CC Understand you have many small particles going by on the left. At what distance?
C ... looks like ...
CC Roger. Understand they're about 3 or 4 miles away?
C They're past now; they're in a polar orbit.
CC Roger. And understand they were about 3 to 4 miles away?
C That's what it appeared like, or farther.
CC Roger.
CC Gemini VII, Houston. Were these particles in addition to the booster and the bogey at 10:OO o'clock high?
C ...
CC Roger.

Il confronto fra la trascrizione che include anche il PAO (l'addetto alle comunicazioni al public) and the piece of audio by and Mysteries Aliens indicates a replacement: the words of the PAO, which are on page 79 of PAO Mission Commentary Transcript are given after that there were several other message exchanges with the astronauts.

The most important thing is that the extrapolation of the phrases out of context makes it seem like a mysterious communication that is not really when you read the entire transcript of communications and you know the mission. He explains it very clearly in the history of astronautics James Oberg Gemini-7: Lessons and Legends - A 30th Anniversary revisit "Formation Flying, "" Lessons Learned "Later, and one" Bogey " (September 15, 1995): One of the aims of the Gemini VII mission was a rendezvous with the second stage of the Titan-2 missile, also arrived in orbit around the Earth.

For a simple need to celestial mechanics, the Gemini VII found himself mixed several times through the cloud of fragments of all sizes spontaneously broken away from the stadium. In orbital space and speed, the absence of air and weight mean that these fragments continue along its trajectory traveling in tandem. What the astronauts saw was simply one more fragment of light coming from its missile. Not for nothing The sighting comes just in conjunction with one of the passages through the cloud of fragments.

Moreover, the tone absolutely relaxed and calm with which the astronauts interact with the control center in Houston indicates that the sighting has nothing extraordinary. If you really had been an alien vehicle, presumably verbal reactions were quite different.

remains to clarify the picture. The first thing you notice is a recurring phenomenon in UFO images: the poor quality and lack of a precise source. Here, too, comes to the rescue James Oberg, who points out in his above-mentioned image analysis, dated 1976 and published in Search Magazine .

This is an altered version, grainy photo S65-63722, taken during the mission. According to the document Earth Photographs From Gemini VI Through XII, is the first frame of a film 24 taken during the seventy-seventh revolution around the Earth, December 9, 1965 at 21:51 GMT, and then several days after the alleged sighting, above the 'Western Pacific Ocean.

The original version of this image, presented above, shows realtà il muso (scuro e in ombra) della capsula, sul quale si vede il riflesso metallico sfuocato degli ugelli dei piccoli razzi di regolazione d'assetto del veicolo spaziale. La forma del muso e la posizione degli ugelli è chiarita da questa fotografia di un rendezvous fra le capsule Gemini 6 e 7.

La fotografia ufologica è stata insomma alterata, in modo che il muso scuro si confonda con la Terra altrettanto scura che si vede sullo sfondo, e poi capovolta e ritagliata.



The reflection of the nozzles can be seen in other photographs of the Gemini missions, like the one shown below, the S65-45753, referring to the Gemini V.


An even clearer example of how the nozzles of the engines operating shine when the nose of the Gemini capsule is in shadow or penumbra is given by S66-63 060 photos, taken from the Gemini XII mission and dated November 14 1966:
