Apparently, if the full article is to be believed, going to the moon drove this guy over the edge.

In his book "The Way of the Explorer," Mitchell discusses his belief in
psychic powers, including those of Uri Geller (whom Mitchell calls "one
of the most accomplished psychics I have ever met"), whose claim to
fame is his alleged ability to bend spoons—a feat that magicians have
duplicated many times.</blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.livescience.com/strangenews/080728-bad-edgar-mitchell.html">According to Mitchell, the "impossible" is possible if
you don't know your limitations—sort of like how when Elmer Fudd walks
off a cliff onto thin air, he doesn't fall until Bugs Bunny points out
that it's impossible. 
</blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.livescience.com/strangenews/080728-bad-edgar-mitchell.html">Mitchell believes that dream experiences (or the
hallucinations of a person high on drugs) are just as useful in
understanding the world as the results of carefully-controlled
scientific experiments.
