Weird star spotted. Any thoughts?

self-contained power supply perhaps similar to a radioisotopic thermoelectric jenny or a dirac field capture thingemebob?

what shape is the receiver/business end of the contraption and am I right in typing that the rig is an image intensifier?

I'll flip though the documentation again. I was mostly looking at pictures last time.

a reply to: fakedirt

It honestly does look like a large CRT tube from a television, resting on a gimbal. The wiring and magnets look like the tuning bits. There is a large ring of wiring around the receiver end, the documentation says it for intensifying the energy of photons.

you operated this at ground level but this was designed for orbital use.

can you detail the operation and perceived results in detail?

cheers f

It's in the back of a Pepsi truck, And takes up most of the trailer. I don't have a space ship to get it into orbit. I just wanted to try to see a UFO. I did not if anyone was wondering. Apparantly I seen a streetlight....

the owners of said contraption seem pretty nonchalant about security and packaging. is this correct?

They're weird about, but I'm retiring soon.

Check with Elon Musk.

If he can get a Tesla Roadster in a heliocentric orbit out towards Mars then he might be able to get a Pepsi Truck into Earth orbit.

This is what you can see from the door.

So you also happened to be transporting this thing back on October 6th of 2017? And you just happened to be parked in the middle of the Neff Packaging Solutions building in Simpsonville, Kentucky (38°13'7.02" N, 85°20'37.61" W)? And that picture isn't just the inside of something like an automated stretch wrapper machine?

You might want to strip out the EXIF data from your photos if you're going to post hoaxes.

no, I have location spoofing on my phone. runs through random computers. look it up in the apple app store.

huh, that looks similar if you don't know what your looking at? or are you saying I'm just downloading pictures from all over the world to pass them off as a telescope? why would I do that?

That's what dishonest people do.

I assume you're doing it for some kind of laugh. But those are clearly the same pictures. To be fair, the Indian site stole the photo, too. Looks like the original came from "Phil's Old Radios" site. It's from an RCA CTC-11 TV: www.antiqueradio.org...

The picture on Phil's site (appears cropped because ATS limits the width of external images):

Nice work!

Although, I’m a little disappointed it took ATS five thread pages (got the day off and too much time...read all 5 pages...smh) to catch the liar red-handed.

How do you know my real name? I never told anyone my name is Adam Sheppard on here.

The first picture you posted has a bank of solenoids which appear to be controlling a compressed air manifold,
Whats the purpose of a compressed air system in such a high tech telescope?
