  • as an aviation major, i can confidently say that the notion of chemtrails has the same odds of being realistic as JFK was shot by a alien zombie Elvis.

    while the whole chemtrail thing is possible, the logistics behind such an operation would be too extensive and too obvious to go unnoticed. sorry, but your theory fails.

  • NLC's are a dusty plasma phenomenon.

    so btw, without all the conspiracy theory crank, chemtrail works generically. whatever.

  • interesting footage but whats the flash at 2.07 on the dark limb of the earth? lightning?

  • it definitely looks like lightning viewed from the ISS.. [btw I saw it around 2:11, anyway..]

  • Amazing footage! Thanks!!!

  • THX! (NASA)!

see all

  • [abs. continued] ...Because of the intrinsic low pass filtering of the slant view observation geometry preferential enhancement of the higher frequencies was needed to bring out waves in the wavelength range of < 200 km... imaging of the airglow on a long duration flight would produce a global set much needed for the understanding of the [MLT] dynamics.

    Abs. During the STS-75 shuttle mission a special purpose electronic imager viewed the atmosphere below the shuttle orbiter in the wake direction with the objective of imaging gravity wave induced airglow modulation...A narrow band (3 nm) filter was used to select the O2 atmospheric 0,0 band at 762 nm...

    {~ the title is a little misleading since these clouds have been spotted since only(!) 1883}

  • watch agenda 21

    put it in your search bar

  • Some people amaze me.....indeed they do.

  • may i suggest a nice sunset or a sunrise perhaps to easily view all the toxic particulate injected into your atmosphere... its really quite a sight
