Tagalongs and a Hidden Intelligence Network: Unresolved Anomalies in the 1962 Space Mission Era

To the point

An account of early 1960s space missions describes mysterious “tagalong” objects seen near reentry capsules, captured on RC-135 footage and linked to a wider covert network, with a Washington attorney tied to the CIA and OSS-era Paperclip circle who stayed close, and observers like Wally Schirra, John Glenn, and Scott Carpenter left to interpret what was really there, while some footage is missing or redacted.

Dr. Harald Malmgren and Wally Schirra's "Tag-along" from Mercury 8 mission 3 OCT 1962 - DoW release

In this interview from November 2024, Dr. Harald Malmgren and I discuss the "tag-along" observed by astronaut Walter M. Schirra Jr. during the Mercury-Atlas 8 mission in a spacecraft nicknamed "Sigma 7" on October 3, 1962. This event occurred just 2 weeks after a tag-along was filmed following the re-entry vehicle of the Atlas 8F ICBM test - footage which is now in the National Archives in the "UFO" category. Schirra's encounter with the tag-along occurred just a little over 3 weeks before another tag-along was shot down during the Bluegill Triple Prime high altitude nuclear weapons test on October 26, 1962 - an event that was also captured by 3 independent high-speed cameras operated by the U.S. government. This footage has also been either fully or partially declassified. The official NASA audio of Schirra's encounter with the tag-alongs was released on May 22, 2026 as part of the PURSUE UFO files.
