Things In Spaaaaaaaace!

[Ke1t]

I'm a big fan of crazy conspiracy shit, but sometimes you get linked from the crazy shit to genuinely reliable sources, like NASA and the JPL for example.

 

During Shuttle mission STS-88, they took pictures of some pretty weird stuff all floating around in Earth orbit.... some of it could be junk, could be rocks, could be experimental military X-planes... who knows. Some of it NASA hasn't even tried to explain. When questioned they shrugged their collective shoulders and went, "Fuck if we know."

 

This one, to me, looks like a giant angry dog's head. Chances are it's not, though

 

From the NASA site.... Follow link for Hi-res shot.

 

Tha fuck?

If you zoom in close enough you can see Ripley

Space Vikings would be awesome. That could be either a rock or a Borg cube. Hard to tell... probably a Borg cube.

Bit sad sack but got a telescope outta argos to see that supernova thing. Didn't see that (nails to use). So far seen the moon... check... but also next brightest thing I pointed at turned out to be jupiter and 3 of the moons(just wee dots really). But was pretty crazy could see the bands of clouds(?) on jupiter and that.

Hud on, I just noticed the "smuge"....

[phoenix]

The boy that started PayPal , whose name escapes for now , is a billionaire.

 

He is now into rockets and plans to colonise Mars for starters.

 

He thinks it's the future.

 

I think he's right.

But first he devised a cunning online payment system designed to stop neds ripping each other off for second hand/stolen goods.

Humans are preprogrammed to look for patterns....especially faces, which is why we see things that arent actually there....

[RUL]

I must have been pre-programmed by Stevey Wonder as I can't see shit in that photo.

Ghosties = Nae real

Harry Potter = Nae real

Soaps = NAE FUCKIN' REAL!

 

Aliens = Mathematically probably real. Drake's equation is something like 10 planets capable of interstellar communication at any 1 time in our galaxy...assuming things like 1% of life planets develop intelligent life, and like 1% of them are able to communicate and last for x amount of years.

Aye, Drake's equation if fascinating. Completely made up on the spur of the moment is my interpretation of it, Far to much guesswork going on.

Aye, the accuracy of the equation is dodge itself. But the premise I think you can argue for. Even if the odds are amazingly high... there are an amazingly high number of planets in our galaxy.

 

Still, its nae happening in my lifetime anyways.

Ask and ye shall receive....

 

 

However, I'm utterly fuct if I ken fit that "object" in the photo is, it does look like a dog's heid. Probably some random bit o space junk or rubbish floating aboot.

Why are aliens called aliens?

 

What if we are the aliens, and they are the normal ones?

 

Racists.
