Wow. This is the big one! The darn US government covering stuff up again. This time those swines built a base on Mars and never told anyone!

Least now we know what the US have been spending their black budget on :) Darn swines!!

You tube videos were removed. My son did some checking today on this subject.
Bet NASA made him remove it. I smell a cover-up, big time.

It's this kind of conjecture that starts conspiracies.

Is it not equally as possible that someone contacted him and told him what it really was and he felt so stupid that he removed it?

Based on the guy's history on Above Top Secret (i contribute there often) I doubt he would have removed it based on that assumption.

Without a response from him, it's still a valid assumption.

That's the problem...he often posts his claims there, then just vanishes. On a side note, his account on YouTube was also deleted when the video was.

And of course it has to be the work of the government trying to shut him up. No other explanation at all.

LOL...I never said that, but it is a possibility, however remote. There are some weird things that images from the shuttles and other craft that cannot just be explained away. But is this one of them? Not likely. If anything its more than likely that he did this to create the look or appearance that the government or some government entity did it. I would not put it past him to fuel the fire.

Take this video for example: One that amazes me every time I see it. Hard to explain away, but the incident just happened to be caught by someone who had managed to get an uplink of the space shuttle satellite feed, something that NASA has stopped doing since the late 90s: UFO: NASA's unexplained tether overload incident

Sure seems like the more intelligent commenters in the postings have explained it away quite successfully. Those objects are indeed not behind the tether. I've seen similar objects when looking through a high powered lens in a microscope.

You can clearly see the objects pass behind the tether. it is quite clear in much of the footage. You can clearly see the tether, which is several miles away and I don't recall how many feet, but it is on Wikipedia. It is 100% inexplicable that it is behind the tether at some parts of the video. You can say it's not all you want, but watch it closely and you can see the tether VS the objects.




STS-75
Space Tether

From STS-75: STS-75 mission scientist hoped to deploy the tether to a distance of 20.7 kilometres (12.9 mi). Over 19 kilometers of the tether were deployed before the tether broke. It remained in orbit for a number of weeks and was easily visible from the ground, appearing something like a small but surprisingly bright fluorescent light traveling through the sky.

over 19 kilometers (11.8 miles roughly) of tether was deployed. How could some of those objects not be behind it when it was so long? That means at time the tether was a few kilometers away at least.

how exactly did that tether get so wide. That looks like someone cropped in a video of a hair and brownian movement on a microscope slide. notice the irratice movement and random direction change of the objects. Also not the light bleeding into the focus on the bottom of the image. If thats the earth its taken a shape completely inverted to its normal spherical shape.
Wheres the damned sphere. all I see is a straight line. and the fake overplay of supposed crew.
I really don't like the chopped section where the tether is quite obviously clear to see and the wire is coiled. then suddenly the video changes...hmmm suddenly you can see other objects in the suns glare that we obviously blanked out by that glare. this is once again a poor attempt at a UFO siting.

Did you even watch the video? This is from an official NASA TV video. The only thing that was cropped or taken out was screenshots of the footage itself. I doctored nothing in those images. Of course it would have straightend out. It was still being deployed when it broke. Gravity would have pulled it to full length if not close to it i would imagine. The astronauts even talk about the objects. At full deployment, the tether would have been just over 20km long (12 miles). As to how wide it is, there will need to be math done for that.

Uh...my mind says, and it also shows clearly that the objects pass both in front of and behind the tether. This thing is huge. At full length, about 12 miles long. So lets just say it is an illusion. These things, debris, UFOs or whatever you want to call them, are also quite large. The fact that the astronauts even discuss them is quite amazing in itself.

So lets talk about the objects? their shapes are quite clear. The number of them are also quite clear. So how big are they and what are they? Why do some of them appear to flash? If this is a trick, then its a very good one.

Yes I watched. The video stops at one point and begins again with the microscope slide look. Please explain how the NASA communication sounds like the moon landing audio when we clearly have better communications equipment now. I specifically recall hearing astronauts speak without the massive static. It seems to me someone did a crappy job of editting that video with a microscope slide video. Heck I bet I could do something similar with water and an out of focus lens. Lets not forget then individual couldnt focus on the " tether. When He focused everything went in and out of focus. that leads me to believe that isn't from space. Also the black bacground and small white light is just a microscope with the apeture closed to its smallest size and slightly off center to the lens. If anything the Apeture needs alignment. a very crappy hoax. Of course we haven't heard diddly from NASA but we have a video on youtube. I'd like to see NASA's uneditted video, please!

Do not underestimate the confusion from not having a recognisable frame of reference...

Is that showing objects many kilometres long or shards and threads of just a few millimetres?


There's lots of video snippets from the shuttle tether experiments. The damaged tether spread a lot of fine debris in the shuttle cargo bay that also spread onto the camera lens. In the weightless airlessness of space, a few minuscule out of focus fragments at the camera lens can look like anything you wish for, and at any size you can dream up.

Sorry, there's nothing but out of focus dust and dreams in your example.

BTW I spent an hour looking at information from NASA on the experiment and nothing was mentioned about UFO's or anything else. AND if that was the tether and satelite, which I doubt. those UFO's would have been huge considering that satelite was over 90 miles away. I'll stick with the bad microscope slide theory before I believe the thin tether was so thick as to obscure seeing the actual satelite attached to it.
