swamp gas reflecting off Venus.
joking aside, I haven't a clue but the UFO conspiracy nutters are having a field day with it.
my guess is it's debris or junk

I've also been told to watch - black night satellite on YouTube, apparently - It's about a satellite that has been in space orbiting us since the 60s sending out radio messages into space. No country is claiming the satellite as there own.

I don't know either but a quick Google shows its happened more than once according to some people.
Very strange.

Did anyone uncover what those dull thuds were that were heard around the northern hemisphere a few months back?

[johnxjsc1985]

IS...Intergalactic Soldiers it all makes sense now.
I love all of this stuff I love how passionate people are about it.

Any excuse to get Scully on the case.

I'm sure it's nonsense, and yet here I am thinking: "I really ought to watch that".

This has also been posted in the Lounge. However, I would be interested to hear read the opinions of the 'Science!' enthusiasts.

Assume this is a undoctored genuine feed.

What do you chaps reckon? Any obvious or stand out explanations?

I'm a scientist by trade, however grew up being a big X Files fan. As the poster on Mulder's office wall states: "I want to Believe".

Ah I remember the thread on that, was interesting. My money is on a large meteorite blowing up in the atmosphere somewhere over the Atlantic, as watching videos of the big one in Russia had several similarities. Would also explain why it was heard in the USA and the UK. There was also rumours of the USA's experimental aircraft flying around that time as well, so could have been that.

As for this video, well there's been a few just like this floating about, and the general consensus is that they are small particles, probably ice, floating about.

Ah, the Black Knight satellite, better known as a piece of space junk, likely a section of a rocket shroud, although its not clear who's rocket it came from.

She looks less than pleased with the idea.

[RegMolehusband]

Oh no, EricMc will be most dissatisfied at you posting this in "Science!"! I would like to get the first woo-woo in if I may. However, it's an interesting video.

[HD Adam]

[Eric Mc]

Absolutely. Interesting to those in whom the "woo" is big.

[Einion Yrth]

Given footage of unexplained specks, which appear to be about 6 pixels across on the CCD and thus effectively amorphous; why is the answer always "aliens"?

[jmorgan]

Earthly solution very probably Debris around the station perhaps or aliens........

Funny how they always let the cat out the bag then cut the feed.


Where is that picture when you need it.
