Moon UFO Footage Captured by Astronaut Edgar Mitchell

It definitely doesn't appear to be dust. It could however be some glare on the LM window or camera lens.

I see no evidence of it casting a shadow on the lunar surface, as some have pointed out.

Here's another source for the video. The frames in question start around the 12:01 point.

I see a shadow here:

Instead of dancing with shadows and dust, why not rely on the description by Edgar Mitchell. He never saw anything he would call a 'UFO' on his spaceflight, or any other time in his life, and he doesn't know of any other astronauts who did on spaceflights while he was with NASA.

What is so difficult to understand about that?

The dark spot at the bottom of the blip doesn't seem consistent with how a shadow would behave with the low sunlight angles seen in the craters.

I was just pointing out something I found. That is all. If he says he never saw anything, then I believe him.

Because it's possible that some evidence exists out there somewhere that the astronauts didn't notice. After all, their primary mission was not to look for UFO's. That's why it's OK to examine shadows and dust.

Not sure if photobucket img link will work - if it does, here's a gif:



If it doesn't work, here's the link: i1322.photobucket.com...

It looks like a fleck of dust, but a moving one.

I made this point a few posts back, Jim:

"I did, however just have a quick look at Mitchell's entry on Wiki and it states that in May, 1996, in a 3-hour interview with Art Bell on the Coast to Coast radio program he stated that "there were no anomalies seen on Apollo 14 suggesting extra-terrestrial life." This would suggest to me that whatever is shown in that video Mitchell knew it wasn't a UFO."

Nobody listens!

If you watch it in fullscreen, it becomes a slightly less ridiculous claim. The first several seconds it appears, it's not moving exactly with the lunar module, so I don't think it's a spec on the glass...at least not a stationary spec. Also, it looks to be casting a shadow on the terrain in some parts of the video. Could be an illusion...I don't know.

very slightly. less than 1 tenth of 1 percent or less. no shadow although I can imagine one.

So I watched it in full screen and can only come to one conclusion,

It's a speck on the camera.

Let me bully you into reading this 1970 NASA report, in case you are assuming nobody before you thought to examine Apollo external video. The report might provide some insights into how seriously they were taken, and what they probably were showing.

Anybody else ever show you this? Maybe you ought to keep company with bullies more often.

It can be mind-opening.

I did not assume that. My comment was meant to be more general than specific, but I think you knew that.

No thanks. I prefer not only to open my mind, but rather to keep it open for more than brief periods of time.
