Quoting: Anonymous Coward 75875398 ever considered looking for those space stations that he found? Didn't you see the above post then ya ignorant twat? lol Here's a selection of my best shots of ISS over the last year, tracked with my SatTraker software. [link to github.com (secure)] I'm also developing a stabilization program which I used on the footage to stabilize and select the best frames in a moving window of quality assessment. What is your take on 'John Lenard Walson' and the footage he has captured with his telescope? [link to www.youtube.com (secure)] *That aren't of the ISS, but of other 'objects' I hasten to add |

With that kind of bomb proof evidence anyone would run to NO to shove it in his face and make him squirm. But you don’t. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 75864923 That's a fucking lie. I agreed to debate him on the modern day debates channel where neither of us will control the mute button. You're a fucking liar, fuck off you worthless piece of shit. |

He stole his photo of ISS and the shuttle close to each other and claimed it was his own to the Pegasus research group. He's a hoaxer, but worse, he's an image thief and I have no respect for that.

(OP) Senior Forum Moderator 11/25/2019 11:34 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Astro, I don't mean to divert your thread, but speaking of telescopes, what do you think of Bruce Sees All? Quoting: Neil WeakLegs 77410917 He has relatively sophisticated equipment (for an amateur) and he takes his photographs from multiple angles. He reports anomalous features, and gets results that are consistent with those different angles so these features cannot be called artifacts of the JPEG compression, etc. I've seen him report an out of focus star as a UFO. Having sophisticated equipment like mine does not automatically make you a dedicated amateur astronomer, honest, or a trustworthy source. |

I have see Flat Earth-type people show out-of-focus stars, etc, especially with the Nikon P900 high-zoom camera and claim that's how they really look but I have never seen Bruce do that. Note that I only saw a few of his videos (and I skip around so I don't watch the whole thing) but I did not see any problem like that. |

I have only watched a bit of John Lenard's videos and did not listen to any of his interviews, but my first question would be, "How does he know where to look?" So my question to you Astro would be, have you ever tried to look for "unidentified" satellites? For example, set up your automatic software to sweep the sky and record anything that comes into the frame? |

He claims these objects are masquerading as regular, major stars. He described his "FAST" imaging technique for revealing what they really are, and it was just a paraphrasing of lucky imaging, a technique used by amateur astronomers all the time to select the best frames for stacking. It's never shown that major stars are secret space ships. So my question to you Astro would be, have you ever tried to look for "unidentified" satellites? For example, set up your automatic software to sweep the sky and record anything that comes into the frame? Quoting: NeilYes, I've done things like that. I even tracked the X-37B. Never seen anything like what JLW shows. |
