The moon is commonly described as 1/4 the size of Earth. So if the car cameras did capture the moon, we'd expect it to look about 1/4 the size of the images of Earth.

The moon is known to be 1/4th the size of Earth, so if the moon is captured by the car's cameras, then we'd expect it to look about one-fourth the size of the Earth, as it appears.
Please think about this again.

ALSO around 3:30, there is a sequence of 3 separate UFO's, flashing their lights, in a shared sequence of flashing:

there are over 20,000 objects circling the earth in all shapes and sizes, some spinning, some close some father out, speeds are different, etc......my point is.....white dots don't do anything to prove anything...it's like the moving white dots on so many nighttime clips....you can CALL them anything you want, it doesn't mean they actually are...

Take a look at the second video you posted in the OP.
1:10 bottom right. Put that in perspective
Also, Jim asked you to think about your statements regarding the size of the moon compared to the earth.
The moon is commonly described as 1/4 the size of Earth. So if the car cameras did capture the moon, we'd expect it to look about 1/4 the size of the images of Earth.
So going by this logic the sun can fit 1.3 million earths. So why isn't the sun filling up the entire sky?
Could it be.... relative size and distance?? Nah can't be
Look at how huge the Earth still is, at the end of 4 hours. That alone suggests that the moon would appear much bigger than that small UFO.

…. If we can believe NASA enough, then there is always a constant activity of rocks and small ice chunks floating by, all the time.

I must have missed where NASA said that, can you direct me to a NASA link that makes such claims, please?

you wrote: All I was referring to is the common idea that space is full of rocks and chunks of ice that are always flying around.
What are you finding objectionable there?
How do you figure this is a 'common idea' and what did NASA ever say to give you that impression? You attribute it to them, please show us you didn't just imagine or misunderstand it. If you misspoke, admit it and we can move on.
I don't recall anybody ever saying that these 'mysterious' [to you] dots seen in space videos were rocks or chunks of ice. Ice flakes, or 'ice crystals', yeah.
OK, once there WAS a chunk of frozen urine -- the famous 'pissicle' -- hanging on a dump valve of an early shuttle flight, and ice was often seen coming off the Orbiter/ET interface right after the tank was dumped in space, was that what you were referring to? They weren't just dots, they were big enough to be immediately recognized. If so, what's the controversy?

That alone suggests.........?
How so?
have far away from the earth is the car and how far away is the car from the moon?
Think hard, its a tough one.

Think hard, it's a tough one why you don't watch the LIVE FOOTAGE I just posted, and see how the Earth fills the whole frame, which suggests the moon would appear much bigger than the tiny object pointed out in the OP.
It doesn't require calculating exact miles. The moon would be proportionate to the Earth, which appears huge.

WOW
thanks for the edumecation
The Earth is bigger than the frame; therefore the moon would also look huge.
Did you even look at the live footage that I just posted?
The problem is that the Earth is huge all throughout the 4-hour footage, which does not suggest that the moon would appear as a tiny, brownish rock with a glowing red spot lol.

Yeah if the moon was as close as the earth is to the car but its not unless the moon has moved to a few 1000 km away from us instead of few 100,000 kms.

why?

Why?
because when you see the moon from inside the atmosphere its looks big?
The live footage shows the Earth, bigger than the frame, and from there, we can conclude that the moon would appear as proportional to the huge Earth image. It's really as simple as that.
The object you're calling the moon, is way too small, in relation to the huge image of the Earth, throughout all 4 hours of live footage.

If you say so.

I haven't called any object the moon.
I am replying to things you are saying that don't make sense.
Rather, "if your eyes say so." Look at the live video from SpaceX, and you can SEE the huge image of the Earth, which obviously suggests that the moon would also appear large, to be proportionate.
And I thought your whole point was that the small UFO was the moon.
Is your point that you don't think the moon would appear as proportionate to the Earth? Without even looking at the video that we're discussing?
Let's face it, you don't have a point, do you?

If the Moon was the same distance,
But its not.
You even said you understand what perspective is but everything you say suggests you don't.
And I thought your whole point was that the small UFO was the moon.
I think that was someone else point, try following who and what you are replying too, saves you any confusion.
You just quoted why I am posting, about things you have said in this thread, not the video.

I haven't watched it.
But to ask what the moon would appear like,
If you were in near earth orbit like the car and you looked at the moon it would look like a small glowing circle in the distance not like it does when viewing through the atmosphere.
Let's face it, you don't have a point, do you?
NO,
for the 3rd time
If you read whats posted I was asking about points you make that don't make sense.
