Astronauts on Apollo 12 reported seeing flashes of light and streaks in their vision during space missions, which NASA scientists explain as a known phenomenon caused by cosmic rays and heavy particles striking individual cells in the retina, producing brief flashes that astronauts can perceive even with their eyes closed in the dark.

NEW: Declassified What Apollo 12 Witnessed In Space #disclosure追加:
Uh, listen, we read this paragraph in here about these quotes coronal discharges that you guys were seeing and and that that completely stops us. Tell tell us what how this came about and who who talked to you about it and what it and what you saw. reported it on or somebody reported on one of the earlier flights that uh some guy up I got the letter paper somewhere and he kept it down to me at the cape about two things where the VH radio noises which could be discharged from some place in space and the other one were being planted at night with their eyes closed they noticed them when they were awake at night the spacecraft was dark and they thought they were in a spacecraft.
>> Yeah.
>> But whoever this guy was said no that's a perfectly known phenomena. You can get this guard across your eye from gamma rays or something. So they they had a bunch of things. Would we close our eyes and face the moon? You know when we were orbiting it because it would be more you get less discharges facing the moon than away from it. But you don't have to be anywhere near the moon or anywhere.
first night out. Bing bing. And if you if you keep your eye closed and you're awake down there and it's dark and you think about it, but it happens. You can cut your hat. You can you can pin down and it's one eye. It's kind of discharges. You see in both eyes and really see it with one eye or the other eye and you can see what kind it is. We had two kinds. I guess the particle either strike the eyeball perpendicular or or it discharges parallel. And we get either a a plant like that or we get a tree. And uh I'm trying to get on the left side of the space.
I caught all the right.
>> Yeah.
They should have protected you, Dick.
They should have all They should have picked them all up.
>> I'm surprised you didn't hear about this because we were asked to specifically experiment with this thing.
There's two pages in the We didn't bother. We were seeing every town on it came out of a letter buzzing.
>> I I remember their their conversation about it.
>> They thought it was something, you know, penetrating the spacecraft.
>> What Peter described is the exact phenomen of saw. you see a light hit the flag out there or sometimes it be a a street >> and I saw them in both eye and I can't remember if there was one more predominant than the other but I agree with Peton that you're not seeing but both eyes it's not something external to something >> inside coming across that one is a completely known known phenomena >> well we've been looking for cosmic rays, you know, cosmic ray strikes and uh heavy heavy particles, heavy nuclei that that go through. You know, we started at clear back of Mercury taking photographs of the retina to see if you could see streaks across the retina and stuff. We never could find any in there. And so we stopped that up early in well by the end of the eye is what a fast healer on your body.
And if it's doing anything, you're never going to see it by the time you get a guy bang. only way you're ever going to see it is if you right after a particle by >> well probably what what it's doing anyway it's probably hitting just a single cell and uh yeah that's all it' have to do particularly make this flash you know you hit a single cell >> I saw one night I was looking at the MVP a handrail up above and one right right along I don't know where it went right along that hand for about that that distance and I just had to be looking at that and I could almost see will.
>> That's right.
>> Close your eyes. I want to see you open my eye.
>> You know what we see?
They said the mission. You wake up at night and say when I take out a seat close about one minute.
>> Uh let me ask you one more question about heart. Uh oh. Here >> were these random distribution of these or or did they seem to be apparently horizontal or >> Okay. Uh were these were these things random or did they all seem to be in one direction? Like were they always horizontal or were they at random? They could be at any kind of angle.
>> I saw I saw horizontal.
>> I was going to say that's interesting.
mine. It seemed to me I had the impression that they were always roughly in the same place and mine were horizontal. The horizontal streaks were always, if I knew where I was looking, it always seemed like the horizontal streak was a little bit above the center. And it always seemed to me it went from right to left. No matter what it was in the uh the discharges were more and more center and it would be just it was just like a pin of light would explode again >> like somebody was flashing a light at you Yeah. Yeah.
>> Is that about the same for both of you?
>> Is that the same uh reaction you had Dick and Al the way Pete described it?
>> Yeah.
But they were kind of I didn't know from the right or left.
>> That's pretty but about the same. They seem to appear about the same place.
No, >> the ones the horizontal ones that I saw were generally above I don't know I can't I can't remember I just don't remember any >> down you see that telling you that with his eyes open and and other things that he centered his eye the life of the instrument. But I used to notice in the boat when I was down there in that sleeping bag, it was pitch black down there in the hole. It wouldn't make any difference when the vines were open or sold. I lay there for you fine that way for a half an hour and either open them or fold them and wait and sure enough after a while I get one and then I sit there for a while and say, "Okay, was it in the left eye or the right eye?" It takes you a while to sort it out. And but you can usually figure out which eye goes in. Now you know what you're doing.
>> Yeah.
Hey. Hey. Hey.
