 From what I can see it relates primarily to Earthlings rather than
little green people...

 --------------------

Section 1211 was added in 1969 when the U.S. would be bringing a space
vehicle and astronauts back to earth from a mission to the moon. The
section was designed to protect the earth from any contamination that
may have been picked up during the trip and did not specifically
describe contact with alien beings or UFO's. The wording from Section
1211 part 100 says, " NASA policy, responsibility and authority to
guard the Earth against any harmful contamination or adverse changes
in its environment resulting from personnel, spacecraft and other
property returning to the [earth] after landing on or coming within
the atmospheric envelope of a celestial body..." There is no mention
of alien beings or vehicles.

1211.100 Title 14 - Aeronautics and Space

Part 1211 - Extra-terrestrial Exposure

1211.100 - Scope

This part establishes: (a) NASA policy, responsibility and authority
to guard the Earth against any harmful contamination or adverse
changes in its environment resulting from personnel, spacecraft and
other property returning to the Earth after landing on or coming
within the atmospheric envelope of a celestial body; and (b) security
requirements, restrictions and safeguards that are necessary in the
interest of national security.

1211.101 - Applicability

The provisions of this part to all NASA manned and unmanned space
missions which land or come within the atmospheric envelope of a
celestial body and return to the Earth.

1211.102 - Definitions

(a) "NASA" and the "Administrator" mean, respectively the National
Aeronautics and Space Administration and the administrator of the
National Aeronautics and Space Administration or his authorized
representative.

(b) "Extra-terrestrially exposed" means the state of condition of any
person, property, animal or other form of life or matter whatever, who
or which has:

(1) Touched directly or come within the atmospheric envelope or any
other celestial body; or

(2) Touched directly or been in close proximity to (or been exposed
indirectly to) any person, property, animal or other form of life or
matter who or which has been extra-terrestrially exposed by virtue of
paragraph (b)(1) of this section.

For example, if person or thing "A" touches the surface of the Moon,
and on "A's" return to Earth, "B" touches "A" and, subsequently, "C"
touches "B", all of these - "A" through "C" inclusive - would be
extra- terrestrially exposed ("A" and "B" directly; "C" indirectly).
