Borman commanded Gemini 7 and Apollo 8, the first crewed flight around the Moon, and died in 2023. During Gemini 7 he reported a 'bogey' to mission control, which NASA attributed to the spent booster. Guests on the channel read the exchange as an early astronaut UFO report and note that Borman himself never made more of it.
