Too bad I missed that one while I was scanning NASA T.V.
I disagree with the idea that the object is emerging from underneath the clouds however. It seems that the object was invisible and became visible like the object seen on STS - 37 and STS - 51.

jritzmann,
This time the Phenomena was recorded from one of the Shuttles exterior mounted Cameras. So the "Water Droplet" theory championed by Jim Olberg is not going to fly this time as there are no sources of water droplets outside the Shuttle.
The Shuttle Crew preformed a water dump on Flight day 5 , but it was 5 and a half hours earlier at around 3:15 pm. So there would be no source for water at the time the Video was taken.

That, is a water droplet, no question about it.
Also, do you actually believe that water dumped 5 hours earlier might not still be present? There's no air, and therefore no evaporation...it's called space, and it's cold. I dont by any means say the video shows a water droplet, I personally dont know what it shows, but there's a myriad of other things it could be other then a flying saucer.

I disagree , I do not feel it's unquestionably a water droplet.

Sorry jritzmann , but you've got that wrong. In space water boils off rapidly until the remaining water reaches 32 degrees F ( 0 degrees C ) at which point the remaining water freezes it then Sublimates ( evaporates directly from a solid to gas ) in space. Think of Space as being like a giant Freeze Drier.

Well thats telling of how critically your eyes view what they want to see past what is obivous.
I see. So you'd then explain all the ice particles seen in many hours of NASA footage to be non-existent then. Oh, I forgot, those are UFOs.
I think it's truly, horribly misleading and irresponsible to present it as anything else.
OBERG SEES STS-37 UFO
by Donald Ratsch
On April 5, 1991, space shuttle mission STS-37 was launched from the Cape in Florida and landed on April 11, 1991. During the mission, as the Orbiter was approaching the west coast of South America, a dramatic event occurred. As the video camera was rolling and aimed at the viewing window recording the daylight side of the colored earth below, suddenly the orbiter rocked and wobbled as a round UFO appeared outside the viewing window. When the slightly ovoid object first came into view, it traveled from the left to right very fast, changed course to the left and then stopped and hovered.
In September 1994, a gentleman named Marc Whiteford from Arlington, Virginia was attending and speaking at the Wyoming UFO Conference where certain scientists were giving presentations. Mr. Whiteford knew I had in my possession the original video recording from NASA Select of the Starwars UFO event known as STS-48, previously shown on TV shows such as Hard Copy, Encounters, The Larry King Show, etc. Upon his request I agreed to send him a good copy of the STS-48 event, as well as video recordings of other events from other missions. I included the STS-37 UFO footage.
In the audience was Paul Davids, Executive Producer of the Showtime movie, "Roswell". He seemed impressed so the NASA footage was turned over to him. The STS-48 and STS-37 footage was included at the very end of his two videos called, "The UFO Coverup Continues...Volume 1 & 2. When Mr. Davids was making his movie, "Roswell", he already had poorer copies of STS-48 and STS-37, which he included in his "Roswell" movie at the very beginning of the film.
The STS-37 UFO is seen moving dramatically into view from left to right as (former Air Force Intelligence head) General John Samford is video dubbed in on the right side of the screen stating, "We can say that the recent sightings are in no way connected with any secret developments by any agencies of the United States." Then as the closeup is shown of the STS-37's movements, another military man on the right side of the screen is heard saying "...there is nothing to hide at all". Unfortunately the close-up STS-37 UFO is seen traveling from the other direction through technological manipulation. At any rate, the viewer can see the round ovoid shape when watching the film.
Where does Mr. Oberg fit into this? Remember that the STS-37 UFO comes into view as the shuttle is on the daylight side of the earth. Well, believe it or not, Mr. Oberg, while in the Mission Control Center, had watched that UFO make its appearance yet another time, when the shuttle was on the night side of the earth. In 1992, Mr. Oberg and I exchanged snail mail and in one of his snail mails dated July 14, 1992 he states:
"Last but not least is a page from my personal log written during the STS-37 mission last April, when I was in the Mission Control Center for the deploy of the GRO science satellite. While watching a long stretch of NIGHTSIDE video I saw a bright ovoid image cross the screen from left to right. Although I was sure there was a rational explanation, it was an impressive apparition. I personally never thought it was an alien spacecraft but you are welcome to follow up on it. And I'm presuming you have been taping the NASA Select video since STS-48."
I put the above article in the newsgroup alt.paranet.ufo, and it wasn't long before Mr. Oberg replied. It was apparent that he was beginning to back pedal and now said that what he saw on the big screen at Mission Control was a lighted city passing by the screen. Well, that explanation doesn't wash! During a typical shuttle, Mr. Oberg sees hundreds of lights from cities as they slowly appear to move across the screen due to the rotation of the Earth and the orbiting of the shuttle, nothing out of the ordinary, just routine. But he obviously observed something that startled him, for he used the words, "...While watching a long stretch of nightside video I saw a bright ovoid image cross the screen from left to right"..."it was an impressive apparition."
To prove his case, Mr. Oberg ought to tell me which city on Earth, when lit up at night, looks egg shaped as seen from an orbiting shuttle and moves across the screen faster than the revolving Earth. Mr. Oberg really does not want anyone to be left with the impression that the STS-37 was twice visited by a UFO.
