Lens Flare

A video has been posted showing a shuttle astronaut, very brightly lit by the Sun, moving about and an alleged 'ufo'. Even the most cursory glance at the movement of the 'ufo' shows it is moving synchronously to the brightest area of light on the astronaut and is obviously a lens flare.

This video shows that sort of lens flare (albeit on a worse lens!), and mimics (roughly) the movements in the Nasa video. So the lens flare also mimics the movements of the UFO.

Funny about that.

No UFO.

Just lens flare.

@spymak7

I'm just DAZZLED by your expertise - you ripped me to shreds there with that in-depth expose of your photographic knowledge.... Do drop by again.

Oh and did ya spot any sarcasm in the previous paragraph?

[spymak7]

@chrlz904 Aww, poor kid's feelings are hurt.

Good.

@spymak7

Unfortunately, spymak, I like to leave uninformed, uneducated comments. That way folks can see who knows the topic, and who just posts garbage, without understanding the first thing about what they are seeing. Yes, spymak, the sky IS falling. And every bright thing you see in any image is an alien, and there is no such thing as lens flare. Enjoy your ignorance.

Again, spot the sarcasm? Feel free to think it's my feelings hurt.. :o) but then why wouldn't I block you..?

@chrlz904

Never said anything about aliens, nor the sky falling, you ill-informed twat.

Your comparison of lens flare to UFOs, as I and the rest of the intelligent people have confirmed, is completely ridiculous, as are your replies.

I'd pat you on your little helmet covered head and give you a little red ball to play with, but I avoid being drooled on and I'm sure all those backhanded slaps to your chest you give yourself repeatedly are more enough reward for you.

@spymak7

Now that you have completely blown it, READ THE COMMENTS. IT'S IS A DEMO THAT SHOWS *EXACTLY* HOW A LENS FLARE MOVES IN A NASA SHUTTLE VIDEO.

Perhaps if you had done that at the start, you would have avoided the embarrassment. Why don't ya now go off and see if you can *find* that NASA video, there's a good little pretend investigator. Then you might get it. (But I doubt it, given your record.)

And do keep up the insults. But at some point you should *try* to grow up.

@chrlz904

Yawn.

That's your response? (laugh)

Keep playing with that little red ball, child.

Take up a new hobby kid, such as chuteless skydiving, you're no bloody good at this one.

Thanx, Kross! It's nice that some folks get it.. Yes, sadly there will always be the type like 'skeptic'. What concerns me is that young and/or naive folk may stumble upon these claims and get scared (or scammed, in the case of those who are clearly just out there to promote CT websites, videos and books).

Naturally I can't stem the tide, but I help occasionally... If just a few folk listen and do their own research, I feel vindicated.

Cheers!

CHRLZ, I don't know how you are so patient on the ATS boards. I stumbled across it, and from what I was able to gather after about 4 pages, is that the boards are full of arrogant people who see what they want to see, and hear what they want to hear. It's nice of you to spend so much time explaining why odd things happen for obvious reasons, but sadly, what it comes down to is folks like skepticantiseptic disregarding all sense of logic, and only wanting to hear things that validate their ideas
