Not a UFO
Hi All,
Noticed the General Chat thread on the old TV show UFO and thought I might drag out this very early attempt with a kit CCD from Oatley Electronics, from about 2001.
This was a monochrome CCD that had a video output at 22 frames per second, I was trying it out on the Moon and something flashed through the centre of the field of view, it is on 10 frames. I printed out the individual frames and took them to the 2001 SPSP and showed the first two frames to Ed Stone, Ed was the director of JPL and was accompanying Dr Mirriam Baltuck the then NASA rep in Australia.
Ed looked at them and said that he thought I had doctored them on my computer, that is until he saw the other 8 frames.
These are the first two frames, reminds me of the shadow of the alien space craft crossing the Moon in "Independence Day".
Regards
Trevor
