    • that couldn't possibly be a tiny dust mote, not at all.detritus
    • Yea, but an UNIDENTIFIED FLYING DUST MOTE!dopepope
    • swamp gasutopian
    • interesting footage I suppose. shame all these videos come with the annoying narratives and sub-x-files branding etcFax_Benson
    • I take it you didn't watch the whole video Detritus...set
    • Are they all dust? lolset
    • hehe... fax touched on something that drives me nuts. YT channels w/their stupid DYI branding... kills my desire to give this any credence... but I shall watch!PonyBoy
    • I'm going with dust... even w/the one that angles hard and changes direction... especially that one. Why u-turn like that? Alien forget to close the garage?PonyBoy
    • i want to believested
    • that boomerang towards the end was obviously a pigeon.Gnash
    • Why would you have the camera on at all then? This is stupid.cannonball1978
    • Aye, dust. Particles that small in that sort of ionized environment are going to move, esp. with respect to macro-scale objects.detritus
    • The ISS is travelling through a cloud of particles and generating static build up - it's really not surprising that dust motes exhibit seemingly odd behaviour.detritus
    • Sadly, it's less surprising that people would rather jump at the extraordinary than consider things a little more. Any real aliens around are smirking at us.detritus
    • when I saw the first mote move I actually [mutedly-] joyously exclaimed my surprise, wonder and enjoyment of it. It's beautiful, amazing, awe-inspiring! ...detritus
    • ... it's just not some fucking alien and his moving his glove around isn't evidence of some conspiracy. sorry. i kind of wish it were too, but this here is not.detritus
    • imho, obv. what the fuck do i know?detritus
    • Fuck all apparently. Some might be dust sure... but all? lol to that.set
    • You really don't do yourself any favours 'loling' at stuff as you do, it comes across as hollow condescension and, ultimately, a little bit stupid.detritus
    • Sorry old chap, I just can't help but lol at the assertion that every single one is dust. That's what's ultimately a bit stupid.set
    • Are these dust as well?

    • I just think the whole 'it's all dust (swamp gas, ball lightening, whatever) is just as stupid as 'it's all aliens'.set
    • I thought we were discussing < this video? in this video, Yes, it's pretty evident to me that ALL the moving specks there are simply motes of dust.detritus
    • You always maintain the same assertion, set, but here's the thing — so do I. I consider each example on a case by case basis.detritus
    • eg—I've still no good explanation about that Chilean thing, despite reading a few 'FLIR Experts' right off anything other than mundane solutions like planes, &cdetritus
    • 'LOLing' at someone about something that you can't possibly know or confirm yourself in any absolute sense is, intellectually and pragmatically, foolish.detritus
    • and as much as I completely think < these are just dust.. I still couch my absolutism and admit that perhaps I can't know.
      Do you do the same? No. Odd.
      detritus
    • Of course I do. I've always said it's just as bad to outright say aliens 100% don't exist as it is to say they 100% do.set
    • To say it's all dust is far more absolute and pragmatically foolish than me saying I don't know what they are...set
    • ?set
    • Do you really think the one at 8:00 is dust?set
    • I'm really not watching it again—I already gave the cunt two views yesterday— but there were no entities in that video that I didn't think simply dust motes.detritus
    • And it's not foolish to see dust and proclaim it as such — unfortunately here, Occam's razor asks that you rationalise your position, as it is the unlikelier.detritus
    • IT'S JUST FUCKING DUST, WHAT'S WRONG WITH YOU PEOPLE? FUCKING HELL! *breathes* There, better now.detritus
    • Click on 8:00 and tell me that's dust you raging shit

    • k I win then. They're all aliens. Told you.set

    • I'm sorry, i still see dust. beautiful motes of electrically and — perhaps! — gravitationally looping dust. Not sure if ISS is massy enough to sway specks?detritus
    • @set - I'd love to believe, I really would.
      @detritus - solid line of argument - respect.
      Q: Why would an astronaut conceal alien life? What's the end game?
      BuddhaHat
    • And if he's out there performing an installation or maintenance or something, why would he be focusing on anything other than his work?BuddhaHat
    • Live feed gets cuts, camera moves out of the way, hands in front of camera, etc... NASAutopian
    • I'm with Set on this one. No way is all that dust. I am not saying it is aliens though. But you only have to spend half an hour researching this stuff to knowfadein11
    • NASA has a long history of this kind of thing - particularly stopping live feeds when shit appears they cannot explain. Too many reliable witnesses and mindfadein11
    • blowing cases (mass sightings, airline pilot sightings, military sightings etc.) to say there is not something v.strange going on. Not to mention numerous coverfadein11
    • ups, lifelong death threats, deathbed confessions from people who nothing to gain but ridicule. Yep - it's an interesting subject for sure.fadein11
    • who have*fadein11
    • For sureset
    • Just because you don't understand why NASA would hide alien life, doesn't mean it must not be true. Odd argument, really.
      @Buddha
      set
    • Not that odd @set, it goes back to Occam's razor (courtesy of @detritus), there's no current alternative explanation based on evidence. All that's on camera..BuddhaHat
    • are moving objects; to draw any further conclusions, especially without a keen understanding of the contents space that aren't based on speculation...BuddhaHat
    • could be seen as drawing a fairly long bow, no? OR.... Aliens.BuddhaHat
    • I never said it was aliens, apart from when being sarcastic. I said they're not all dust.set
    • You're assuming based on what... Me suggesting we don't know what some of it is?set
    • Respectfully I'd say those of us without advanced degrees in aerospace engineering or experience in outer space can't intelligently speculate on the objects.BuddhaHat
    • And until such time those objects are definitively identified with evidence, yes, we don't know what a LOT of it is. It's a big place out there.BuddhaHat
    • Addition: unless someone wants to post a pdf of their thesis on the behaviour of objects in space relative to the gravity of a space station, & how this affectsBuddhaHat
    • visual perception on NASA's camera feeds, lenses and signal transmissions. That's what I'm getting at. Without being a cunt, of course.BuddhaHat
    • Right after you post a thesis explaining how relativistic-busting FTL travel could possibly work ;)detritus
    • Human-created dust in low orbit is a knowm problem, as is static build up in low orbit, as is gravity, perhaps making paint flecks and dust motes small moons..detritus
    • CCDs on the ISS are set to pick out hard to discern light, which makes close objects look bright and weird. The footage in <that video isn't IR, it's just lightdetritus
    • but, more bluntly - we see what we want to see, and when it's placed in a OMG UFO context, our interpretation comes prepped.detritus
    • lol detritus, I have written no such thesis sorry old chum, not exactly in my wheelhouse... hence my repeated uncertainty :)BuddhaHat
    • I'm not much of a viewer of these kind of videos, I was really surprised at the conclusions drawn from glove & camera movements on the feed. Seems strange to meBuddhaHat
    • I respect the intelligent input, and agree that some of it can certainly be explained away by dust etc. I'm just saying that to pass it all off...set
    • ... as space dust as if you know it to be true is just as bonkers, or at least almost as bonkers, as saying it's all aliens.set
    • lolmonospaced
    • Mono is part of the small brain crew that can't debate but instead ridicule.... Embarrassingset
    • that is simply not true ... do you like being wrong SO much that you have to make up shit about someone you don't know?monospaced
    • I make one "lol" at your 70-comment discussion with Buddha, and you insult me? Get a grip.monospaced
    • "the small brain crew that can't debate but instead ridicule" set, this is the first thing you do when someone doesn't join you in upvoting your posts.scarabin
    • +1 despite all your unnecessary personal attacksscarabin
    • Again you confuse insulting someone with ridiculing an idea worth discussing...set
    • and again you confuse not discussing with not sharing your viewpoint.scarabin
    • Eh?set
    • if he is in fact attempting to cover it up i'm guessing it may be some secret military thing. dunno why they'd be filming knowing that shit is around thoughscarabin
