A nervous NASA astronaut may have mistakenly revealed the secret code that the American space agency uses to address unidentified flying objects (UFO). This is evident from a recent recording all the way from the International Space Station (ISS).
According to RT, UFO blogger Scott Waring believes that in the ISS video, the astronaut makes some suspicious reference to the word "gospel." Waring says that the use of such a word is unusual and "out of ordinary" for a normal speech that an astronaut usually delivers.
In a video uploaded by Waring, the astronaut can be heard saying, "On a personal level I look forward to this partnership with the gospel, really around the world." Waring suspects that this astronaut could be none other than Commander Jeff Williams.

But if it's from Scott Waring, you can be sure it's not true.

Weren't 'fire' and 'Santa Claus' supposed to be 'code words' too?

Good point, Mr. Oberg... Please correct me if I am mistaken, but I seem to remember reading somewhere that the term "moon pigeon" was also used to describe "things" seen by the Apollo astronauts. Perhaps it only referenced lunar transit phenomenon, but what exactly are those?

Thanks for that info, klassless... you summed up the "official" definition quite well.
I suppose that the origin of the term could be determined by perusing the "official" NASA transcripts for the Apollo 10 mission, at least that's what the guy who wrote a brief article regarding the term states HERE
off topic:
while searching the web for further details I stumbled upon this video of a Mars pigeon:

The security services of the United states do indeed use code words for things classified, and UFO's and Alien information is classified, which is no secret, and during the Korean war and Vietnam they used "Enemy Helicopters" for disk craft.
Although I don't know if "gospel" is a true code word, I DO know that code words are used for all kinds of things "Classified"

What did they say when they actually spotted enemy helicopters? "Swamp gas"??
