Astornut,

I would like your opinion regarding the coordinates we discussed yesterday. An individual claims that they used an IR capable camera and recorded an object at the coordinates RA: 6h 42m 8.44s, Dec: 41 40' 18.94" on 20 March 2010 from a location in southern Michigan. He later recorded an identical or similar object at 6h 41m 55.77s, 41 35'; 41 35' 19.45" on 9 April 2010.

I knew those coordinates looked oddly familiar. Yes, I'm familiar with Jcattera's lies... err, claims. When his video first came to light on GLP I immediately checked those coordinates and the surrounding area with my own IR camera and telescope. I later uploaded that rather uneventful video to youtube:

I also took a frame from his first video and performed astrometry on it and found that he was flat-out lying about the coordinates he was looking at. I had to photoshop out his "anomaly" since the astrometry software doesn't account for planets in an image and if they look star-like it rejects the image. Even if his anomaly were real it would have rejected it since that point of light would not fit when pattern matching to the background starfield:

The coordiantes for the image indicate that it WAS Mars in his field of view and that it was a huge distance from where he claimed to be pointing. A video much later on claimed to show that his anomaly had moved even farther, but astrometry of that video proved he was still lying about the coordinates and was now pointing at the star Dubhe:

The whole ordeal was played out in this thread:

I started broadcasting a live view of his coordinates starting on page 12.
