> About 1966 or so, a NASA team doing work for the Apollo moon mission
> took the
> astronauts near Tuba City where the terrain of the Navajo Reservation
> looks
> very much like the Lunar surface. With all the trucks and large
> vehicles were
> two large figures dressed in full Lunar spacesuits.
> Nearby a Navajo sheep herder and his son were watching the strange
> creatures
> walk about, occasionally being tended by personnel. The two Navajo
> people
> were noticed and approached by the NASA personnel.
> Since the man did not know English, his son asked for him what the
> strange
> creatures were and the NASA people told them that they are just men that
> are
> getting ready to go to the moon. The man became very excited and asked
> if he
> could send a message to the moon with the astronauts.
> The NASA personnel thought this was a great idea so they rustled up a
> tape
> recorder. After the man gave them his message they asked his son to
> translate. His son would not.
> Later, they tried a few more people on the reservation to translate and
> every
> person they asked would chuckle and then refuse to translate.
> Finally, with cash in hand someone translated the message, "Watch out
> for
> these guys, they come to take your land."
