Apollo astronaut Edgar Mitchell is no stranger to the world of UFOs and government conspiracies. One of only 12 men to walk on the Moon, Mitchell has never had a problem putting forward his views on UFOs, extraterrestrial visitation and potential government cover-ups. In particular he believes that the events at Roswell, New Mexico in 1947 did indeed involve a crashed alien spacecraft and that the government has gone to great lengths to conceal the truth of the matter from the public. In a recent interview with author James M. Clash, Mitchell described his personal experiences with those who were at Roswell when the incident took place.



"After my space flight, I was contacted by descendants of the original Roswell observers, including the person who delivered the child-sized coffins to the Air Force to contain alien bodies," he said. "Another was one of the children of the deputy sheriff who was patrolling traffic around the site. " On Feb. 5, 1971, Edgar Mitchell became the sixth of only 12 men to step on the moon. Of that elite dozen, which included Buzz Aldrin and the late Neil Armstrong 44 years ago this week, Mitchell is the only one to go on record about his controversial belief in extraterrestrial UFOs -- and of a possible government cover-up.
