    This is some old footage i remember seein it a few years back and at the time i didnt know what to think,im still a little skeptical about it..

    Some of the objects change speeds and direction and at 1 point the an astronaut says "dont film that",and for it to be space debris then how is it all the same shape and how do they have 2 mile wide pieces of space debris flying around up there,why wasnt it broken up before they abandoned it to orbit

    I think it's dust or something in front of the lens, demonstrating Brownian motion. Rather more likely than mile-long UFOs that can't be seen from the ground for some reason... :)

    6 minutes 54 second video of the tethered satellite that broke its tether, followed by a debris cloud floating around the shuttle, which they do.

    UFO's? Where's that facepalm button.......

    Hey i said i was skeptical about it lol

    but theres alot of people who tke this footage as prrof that there is thousands of ufos flying around in our orbit..


    if it is just dust and debris then why is it all passing behind the tether and not in front of it too?

    Optical illusion. They probably disappear when backgrounded against a stronger light source.

    Looks like sp€rm. Astronauts probably just fling it out the window when they're done.

    A tethered satellite? Isn't that just a concept? Have any actually been put into commission using this bulsh!t technique?

    They don't use the tether to put the thing into space. They use them once they are there.

    They were able to generate electricity from it. The cable moving through the earths magnetosphere did it. pretty cool tech if you ask me! It's a pity the cable snagged on a bolt. :(
