What the heck is this incoming????

isvisible i am

hmmm what is this?

let me check the latest images

N.A.S.A. say's

It's a Glitch, pay no attention to it.

It's a sundog. Move along, nothing to c here!

Tic Tac invasion!

yep probably a glitch

this is the previous one

John Bigboote?

These "are caused by micrometeorite impacts knocking off small pieces of the multi-layer insulation blankets which are wrapped around the spacecraft."

Is it a minor glitch, or more like a Mass Extinction Event doom glitch?

EAT's ego and failed predictions?

WOO WHOO - HELP IS ON THE WAY!!

swamp gas reflected from ground water

Sorry... but that type of image is normal. If you look at the pictures and video through out the years will see the same thing.

It is usually caused by solar particles solar particles hitting the lens.

Cat hair on the lens.

It's a slow one of these:

So that's where i parked my ship.
I was sooooodrunk, sorryyyy.

Maybe it is something like this:

The Oh-My-God particle was an ultra-high-energy cosmic ray (most likely a proton) detected on the evening of 15 October 1991 over Dugway Proving Ground, Utah. Its observation was a shock to astrophysicists, who estimated its energy to be approximately 3×1020 eV (50 J)[1]—in other words, a subatomic particle with kinetic energy equal to that of a 5-ounce (142 g) baseball traveling at about 100 kilometers per hour (60 mph).

The particle was traveling very close to the speed of light - assuming the particle was a proton, its speed was only about 1.5 femtometers (quadrillionths of a meter) per second less than the speed of light, translating to a speed of approximately 0.9999999999999999999999951c. At that speed, in a year-long race between an object at the speed of light and the particle, the particle would fall behind only 46 nanometers, or 0.15 femtoseconds (1.5×10−16 s); or one centimeter every 220,000 years.[2]

The energy of this particle is some 40 million times that of the highest energy protons that have been produced in any terrestrial particle accelerator. However, only a small fraction of this energy would be available for an interaction with a proton or neutron on Earth, with most of the energy remaining in the form of kinetic energy of the products of the interaction. The effective energy available for such a collision is the square root of double the product of the particle's energy and the mass energy of the proton, which for this particle gives 7.5×1014 eV, roughly 50 times the collision energy of the Large Hadron Collider.

Since the first observation, by the University of Utah's Fly's Eye Cosmic Ray Detector, at least fifteen similar events have been recorded, confirming the phenomenon. These very high energy cosmic ray particles are very rare; the energy of most cosmic ray particles is between 10 MeV and 10 GeV.

I guess everyone know what it is but me and you OP. Seems very straight for a piece of space junk

It's a Popsicle. On a serious note, it is a glitch or solar particles hitting the camera. Sorry doom off

Am i the only one who gets the glitch image when i zoom on the new one?
