APOLLO 71-AF NEWS UPDATE. . . . .
This is an investigative follow-up to the story we broke on April 1, 2025. That is when, 53 years after it was launched, the Apollo 71-AF capsule mysteriously re-appeared on St. Joe’s front lawn near the school sign.
School faculty, students, and staff were totally amazed at what they found coming to school that morning. Many had no idea what it was, as the Apollo program had ended long before most of them were even born.
As no one in the school had any clue as what to do with the capsule or how to handle it, NASA was contacted to retrieve the spacecraft.
What happened during all these years? Since the spacecraft never showed up on any radar, initial speculations are that maybe the capsule hit some form of rift in the space time continuum or hit an intersecting dimension and phased, or upon reaching a speed of 86 mph - it time warped. In any case it may have moved through time in the same location and just ended up here today. There is also a theory that this was a secret NASA mission to Mars and the capsule just returned home. Of course, conspiracy theorists are claiming an alien abduction and are asking for the government to release all of its X-Files on the matter.
So, what has transpired since April 1, 2025? Both the Department of Homeland Security and the U.S. Space Force arrived and took the capsule to an unknown location. Presumably, for it to be studied and to determine what happened during those 53 years. However, no official reports have been filed on the matter. It was rumored to have been taken to the secret Area 51 base in Nevada.
Recently some unconfirmed sources have leaked information about the fate of Apollo 71-AF. It appears the spacecraft was indeed taken to Area 51 and is stored in the large Hangar 51 there along with thousands of other items, including the Ark of the Covenant. It has supposedly remained untouched the whole time.

Numerous attempts to contact NASA, Homeland Security, and Space Force have remained unanswered. One government official who remains anonymous, stated that "top men" were working on it.
Mr. Patton, St. Joe’s Space Science teacher at the time, was contacted and asked if he had any information or comments, to which he responded that he was unprepared to discuss the subject at this time, but did say that “anyone believing any of that stuff today is just crazy”.
So, what has really happened with Apollo 71-AF? We may never really know. But as of today, April 1, 2026, it seems foolhardy that we ever will.
