  • I guess the question is, is this a controlled object or random piece of matter, the object appears to be falling without control, If you where an advanced alien race and wanted to observe wouldnt you just fly some nano tech object in the size of an atom and observe, its a big show just to observe an empty piece of tin falling to the ground, (im not eduacated, spelling is just a sub class under a chosen language of perception to speak that I pay no attention to lol)

  • When the tank is first released in space, the tank and ice fall at the same speed because there's no air resistance. The ice drifts eventually drifts away from the tank because the ice has considerably less mass than the tank and slows down more from air resistance as it enters the atmosphere.

    But if you see that and your most likely explanation is that it's a craft piloted by a little green man who wants to observe the tank, how do you expect anyone to ever take your judgment seriously?

  • Zankoku na Tenshi no teeze...

  • Most of the cameras mounted on external tank go off right after separation from the shuttle. Can anyone redirect me to the vids with cameras still on in an external tank showing the re-entry?

  • In addition to the obvious object seen at approx. 2:26 to 2:40 in this video, did anyone notice the small white object to the lower left of the tank at about 0:25 and something that seems to pass between the camera and the tank at approx. 1:06 ?

  • At 2.25 for a second there is a moving white irregular object below and to the right ??

  • when the camera dude focuses on the white thingy there are two other objects also if you pause it at 2:38 you can see a small circular object on the top right. and also a long dark think thingy poking out of the bottom right corner. very interesting!

  • That's some angry reply for a collage grad huh?

  • obviously you got me, wow how I am unable to live now.. Did you have to spell check everything you wrote a few times too? Least mine had a point like the top of your head... Go figure.. Some people live in pain and are up late smart ass.. Next time just simply say pass..

  • you obviously went to "collage", i can tell by your exceptional spelling
