And was that original video in daytime or nighttime?
That's a joke? Who here doesn't know "day" or "night" is strictly an earth thing?
*for your reference*
(The earth goes around the sun to make day and night. So if you're not on earth you won't see day or night.... ) :/

More like clearly proof that crappy videos were you cant really see, or tell anything, do exists in both low light and high light situations.
But I suppose you can only get so far using current video capture technology. Its why Hollywood pays to extra bucks to redo scenes over and over, else they be mundane.
So which ones are the aliens, the squiggly lines, or the donuts?

They are not ice cristals and they are not moving as reacting to any mechanical force, such as the turbines of the ISS.
Turbines?
is there air in space now?
Whatever propulsion system was in use, sorry not to be technical there. But I guess you understood what I meant.
I understand it that you are saying that there is air in space so the turbine can work.

….Thank you for noticing that I am not a space engineer. My point is clear, the objects .. are self illuminated, if you don't see that, then too bad, life carries on.

So you are clueless about simple spaceflight-operations stuff such as whether the objects were in sunlight or shadow. This explains a lot.

Oh, and do you REALLY BELIEVE, that I expect to convince you of anything? Not even if the Mother Theresa of the UFOs appeared in NY Times Square or anywhere for that matter, gray aliens, the annunaki and ashtar abductiong people and dogs, as they seem to like it, and drinking blood from a cow, all that presented with a rock band playing loud, you would say it was the reflection of the sun on the lenses and you are not seeing what we are seeing because of reasons.
So no thank you, I don't really take lightgasing people seriously.

Illumination in space is really unearthly [by definition] and has confused lots of rational, mature observers of NASA imagery. A dark sky does NOT mean nighttime, for example -- you have to judge that from sunlit structural elements or the ground below, or from running orbital programs to determine exactly where a spacecraft was located when a video was made, or from crew/PAO comments. Even weirder is the observational experiment begun on shuttle flights about 1990, after the full TDRSS constellation was operational and essentially full-time video links were possible. During periods when internal crew video or other operational needs were absent, a cargo bay camera was pointed towards the receding horizon and just run open-loop opportunistically hunting for the puzzling sprites lightning phenomena. The crew was usual asleep or working other activities, so the cameras were remotely operated by the INCO console in Mission Control. The experiment was called 'Mesoscale Lightning Experiment', run by Dr. Otha ['Skeet'] Vaughan at NASA-MSC in Huntsville. It was a spectacular scientific success in documenting the distribution and morphology of this new type of atmospheric electrical activity. But it also caught the very common nearby drifting stuff emitted from various shuttle equipment [within a year, the first 'shuttle UFO fleet' videos were being captured by excited observers such as Martyn Stubbs], most spectacularly at sunrise when the particles rose into sunlight [takes about 6-7 seconds to reach full bright] while Earth's surface in the lower field-of-view remained dark except for lightning activity [which is exactly the reason the camera was pointed in that direction]. Since the camera's line of sight was nearly opposite to the shuttle-sun vector, the shuttle's OWN shadow was splayed out in front of the camera [invisibly, of course, with nothing to shine ON and create an image]. The routine small stuff drifting away from the shuttle would on occasion randomly drift out of the shadow and suddenly appear, often against a Earth surface background, giving a very convincing impression of an object 'materializing' or 'coming from behind a cloud'. This situation lasted only a few minutes, until the shuttle passed over the 'terminator' [day/night line on the surface] and bright sunlit ground/clouds moved into the field-of-view, which made the camera's automatic gain control circuit decrease sensitivity, making most of the small dots too dim to register on the camera optics [the fact that most famous 'shuttle UFO videos' occurred in precisely this narrow visibility opportunity window is strong evidence this explanation is correct]. This prosaic explanation can also be verified in several other ways. First, the crew routinely observed such 'stuff' and with two eyes had depth perception adequate to identify the objects as within a few tens of feet. Second, as such particles generally move away from the shuttle, they were only observed coming out of the shadow, never going back in ['dematerializing'?]. Third, their nearby-ness was verified by their instant reaction to steering thruster pulses triggered periodically by the autopilot to maintain desired pointing, as they moved away from whichever thruster had fired [the shuttle has both nose and tail thrusters so the pulses and the induced movement could be in nearly any direction], if the particle wasn't so close over the payload bay that it was in the shadow of whichever jet was firing [in a vacuum the ejected gases spread out very widely, half of the plume lies farther than 30deg from plume centerline].
There is no reason anybody accustomed to earthside rules of motion and illumination would have any idea how/why this happens. It surprises everybody.

I'd watch THAT movie!

What? Do you mean "gaslighting"?
If so, how is Jim trying to make you doubt your own sanity? He is simply pointing out your ignorance (in the polite sense of the word).
Nowt wrong with that; I've learned a helluvalot from 'ole Jim. We ALL have.

That was supposed to be humorous, if you don't understand that, that is toooo bad.
