NASA, Indian Message To The Moon

[judykott]

When NASA was preparing for the Apollo project, they
did some astronaut training on a Navajo Indian reservation.

One day, a Navajo elder and his son were herding sheep and
came across the space crew. The old man, who spoke only
Navajo, asked a question which his son translated.
"What are these guys in the big suits doing?"


A member of the crew said they were practicing for
their trip to the moon. The old man got all excited and asked
if he could send a message to the moon with the astronauts.

Recognizing a promotional opportunity for the spin-doctors, the
NASA folks found a tape recorder. After the old man recorded his
message, they asked the son to translate it. He refused.


So the NASA reps brought the tape to the reservation
where the rest of the tribe listened and laughed but
refused to translate the elder's message to the moon.

Finally, the NASA crew called in an official government
translator. He reported that the moon message said,
"Watch out for these guys;
they have come to steal your land."
