Anyone know anything about this? I tried searching for more information but that quickly turned up pages related to "alien bases on the dark side of the moon," so I gave that up.

The Apollo 11 UFO encounter refers to an incident during the Apollo 11 mission to the moon in 1969, where the astronauts reported seeing a strange object in space. According to the astronauts, they saw a white, glowing object moving alongside their spacecraft. It appeared to be rotating and had a long, thin shape.
The UFO seen during the Apollo 11 mission was never officially identified or explained. NASA has stated that the object was likely a piece of debris or ice, but this explanation has been met with skepticism by some. However, there is no concrete evidence to suggest that the object was of extraterrestrial origin.
Yes, the Apollo 11 astronauts did report the UFO encounter to NASA. Their conversation about the object was recorded and can be heard in the mission audio recordings. However, NASA did not investigate the incident further and it was not included in the official mission report.
There have been several reported UFO sightings during space missions, including the Apollo 11 mission. In 1996, astronaut Story Musgrave reported seeing a strange object while on a spacewalk during the STS-80 mission. However, none of these sightings have been officially confirmed or explained.
The Apollo 11 UFO encounter did not have any significant impact on the mission or subsequent space exploration efforts. It was not mentioned in the official mission report and has not been officially confirmed or investigated. However, it has sparked speculation and interest in the possibility of extraterrestrial life and the existence of UFOs in space.
