Nice try though :P Quoting: Anonymous Coward 594062prove it Prove that it's not. the dimensions... does it look like it has broken off.. maybe it's just a super sized washer.. maybe even plastic so as not to short out the pins on the underside of the pcb... you my friend are a donut. |

They are high-fiving and watching with glee as this spreads across the interwebs and discredits those of us who do actually believe in the possibility of extra-terrestrials but aren't so anxious to see them that we find them lurking in every corner. I wish I was a paid shill...It would probably be a raise. |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 602180 United States 03/17/2009 02:21 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I'm sure all the truthers will just bombard me with Shill replies, but for those actually interested, the view was from the docking bay. The camera that operates there is similar to a periscope, in that its off angle viewed using a spherical prism as both a lens and an angular modifier. The "object" you see is actually a lens flare as seen through that prism. If you look at the big screen view in beginning, the sun is off to the upper right and moving OUT of field. The lens flare moves in the opposite direction as would be expected. On the other recorded view of this I saw, you can clearly see the struts in the docking window impede but don't completely obstruct the struts, making them appear transparent as the "object passes over them. This is again very consistent with basic optics. If the object were simply illuminated, the struts would remain as clear obstructions. Because the flare is an artifact of the viewing prism, its diffraction is internal and thus the two images will be additive, leaving a faint image of the struts.

UNtypical USer User ID: 635889 United States 03/17/2009 02:28 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | That's not a "UFO"; that's a Living Sylph, a disembodied Soul of no-doubt great age and wisdom. And furthermore, the Looking Glass and the Orion Constellations methods for looking into the future do no and cannot ACCOUNT for the activity of Sylphs (and Rods). Ta da! |

Theteck User ID: 636939 Canada 03/17/2009 02:34 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | after see multiple time i see it too the same effect a flashlight do You can clearly see the object wrap around the strut as it passes the only thing that can do this is light therefore it is some sort of lens flare. Sorry to rain on everyones parade. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 585003 |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 636947I have no doubt it is real. But WHY NOW are they letting us see it? Why the revelation NOW? I smell a seriously putrid rat. uh. those discs have been showing up in nasa broadcasts for YEARS...they even stopped doing live feeds from the shuttle for a time due to all the ufo activity being caught on film. these nasa vids are ALL OVER youtube and here. YOU are only now noticing. |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 182970phew. Or maybe the 50's horror movies had their space crafts modeled after these. or maybe the laws of physics and aerodynamics are universal... |

antisoshal User ID: 420394 United States 03/17/2009 02:38 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | once again, rather basic optics. you are looking at an object who's distance from the observer is measured in nautical miles. The magnification on the camera is rather HUGE. now pass small debris and dust ( a small cloud of which follws the ISS in orbit) and sidelight that with the brightest light we know of ( the sun). The fuzzy patterns and size of the objects are cause by diffraction ( read up on it). You can duplicate this by holding you hand up to a light then making the gap between your fingers as small as possible. You will start to see multiple gaps and multiple lines. As the gap, or the object, approaches a multiple of the wavelength of the light present, it bends slightly when passing the object creating regular appearing fuzzy edges. You can demonstrate this with a microscope (almost everyone has. Put a dirty slide on and focus just beyond the plate: instead of fine particles you'll get HUGE elaborate designs that look astonishingly like what you see in this video. The camera is focused on the tether, not the dust in between. This is mostly child splay for anyone with some decent science knowledge. I'm amazed by how easily people will buy into ridiculous explanations for simple phenomenon. |
