A friend was telling me that the astronauts on the Apollo 17 mission saw a dead human body, in some unrecognized suit, floating in space.

I've done some google searches on it, and saw several things on Yahoo answers and a few other places. A lot of people seem to be talking about it, but no one seems to know for sure. Also, some people are saying there is a pic or two floating around the internet, but I can't find them either.

Have you guys heard about this? Do you know anything? It's pretty crazy.

Thanks,

i have not heard about this,maybe an astronaut jokingly remarked seeing some sort of flying debris, and over time turned into a story fabricated by some disgruntled employee and now is being blown way out of proportion

Most people haven't heard about this and, even if they did, they would most probably dismiss it as I have.

The Soviets lost quite a few cosmonauts, I suppose its possible one of their bodies is out there.

there is not one shred of proof that a human was seen flying around in space and you are guessing it may be a cosmonaut

I am just saying that there is a slight possibility of it, given the fact that the Russians lost so many people up there.

How bizarre! Apollo 17 was nearly 40 years ago, and I've never ever heard of them discovering a body. What's going on? Was there a story about it somewhere on the internet (or elsewhere) within the last few hours?

Anyway, it's total nonsense. If anything like this had actually happened, it would have been widely known decades ago.
