Strange music heared from the dark side of the moon

A recording of strange music heard by astronauts aboard Apollo 10 from the dark side of the moon has been recently revealed by NASA.
The recordings show the surprised and confused reactions of the astronauts as they hear a strange musical howling noise. The “weird space music” was heard through the radio as Apollo 10 orbited around the dark side of the moon.
Apollo 10 travelled 2 months prior to the well-known moon landing of Neil Armstrong in 1969, when they heard unexplainable music on the far side of the moon.
In a new documentary published on the science channel the strange recording has been uncovered. The astronauts aboard were shocked, and so confused as to what the noises was that they had to reconsider reporting the incident to NASA back home.

While orbiting around the far side of the moon, there is neither visual nor radio with Earth due to limited signal for +-60 minutes.
At one point the baffled astronauts can be heard discussing whether they should tell NASA command or not.
“You hear that? That whistling sound? Whooooo” one of them is heard saying.
Another astronaut says: “it sounds like, you know, outer space-type music.’"
“Well, that sure is weird music,” his companion agrees.
The records consisted of "strange, otherworldly music coming through the Apollo module's radio," were uncovered by America’s Science Channel series NASA's Unexplained Files.
The 'music' lasted almost an hour and just before they regained contact with Mission Control.
The tapes also recorded the crew discussing whether to keep it a secret from NASA.
One astronaut is heard saying: “It’s unbelievable. You know? Shall we tell them about it?”
His colleague’s replies: "I don't know. We ought to think about it."
Until about 8 years ago, these transcripts of the Apollo 10 mission were classified and untouched in NASA's files
On the show, Apollo 15 astronaut Al Worden says: “The Apollo 10 crew was very used to the kind of noise that they should be hearing.
"Logic tells me that if there was something recorded on there, then there was something there.”
The programme discusses some of the possible reasons for the sound, which include a magnetic field or atmosphere interfering with the radio.
However, the moon has no magnetic field and not enough atmospheres to create such sounds, so their source of the “music” remains unknown, according to experts on the programme.
