Description

A transcript of communications between Apollo 17 operators released in the disclosure Friday details the operators' exchange over the unknown phenomenon.

"Now we've got a few very bright particles or fragments or something that go drifting by as we maneuver," an operator told the command center.

"Roger. Understand," the center replied.

"There's a whole bunch of big ones on my window down there - just bright. It looks like the Fourth of July out of Ron's window," another operator added.

"Yes. Now you can see some of them in shape. They're very jagged, angular fragments that are tumbling," the first operator said.
