The Lost Cosmonauts2024 Jun 5
In the height of the Cold War, two Italian amateur radio operators claimed to have intercepted secret Soviet space communications where they overheard, among other things a cosmonaut being lost to the depths of the abyss. At the time, people believed them, after all, the Soviet Union was known to keep quiet about their follies. Now-declassified Soviet records have no mention of this, and while absence cannot prove a negative, it's a strong case that this supposed recording of a "lost cosmonaut" was a hoax. Although, any skeptic could point out that the manner in which some of the most dramatic records were made – at press events, in front of journalists – is perhaps a bit too theatric to have been taken seriously in the first place.
