What hard evidence? And, once again it's not a matter of belief.

Where are the documented independent lab test results that demonstrate this claim?

Once again what are the results of physical and chemical analysis of these objects?

A poster here has as his signature (IIRC) "The sum of anecdotes is not equal to data."

Buzz openly admits that during his trip to the moon, they had a UFO follow them, and they have video of it. They showed the video on the special, but they said it was footage of a later Apollo mission, yet it was the same UFO. Then Buzz goes on to talk about his experience with cosmic rays as he tried to go to sleep. Finally Buzz, and the narrator concurs that nobody "cared" about the ufo following alongside them because they were so caught up with trying to figure out the cosmic rays.

You might want to check out
this thread where the facts of this matter are discussed in detail.

It's proof that things in space can be temporarily misidentified by even the best of us, but with investigation and objective evidence, a correct identification can be made.

Careful with the political content.

No, they finally figured it out. See the thread referenced above.

I anxiously await your replies.

What government interest? There's been little since Project Blue Book closed after demonstrating the various objects which had been mostly misidentified did not constitute a threat from the U.S.S.R. The reports continuing makes fine sense, since, as time goes by, new generations look at the sky and repeat the same mistakes.
