I understand that but on the picture it could be anything. There is always people that love to sensationalize things like that. That is why they called the Lockness monster. So in the end why was the article posted here?
Because the topic is about pictures and video being deemed credible or not. We all don't perceive things to be the same no matter how much shouting and screaming is done with each person saying, "but surely you can see it's fake." The fact is, it all depends on the person and how they are basically set up in life.
You can see things as being real, because that's what your mind accepts, because you probably haven't really had to be put in any situations that's gave you any reason to question.
You said you talked to astronauts on the ISS and you firmly believe that without question. So anyone coming along and saying that the ISS is fake or the pictures are fake, or video is...it will be met with scorn from you. Even when video evidence shows anomalies , you will argue that they are legit, with no problems that you can see.
It's like being at the pub with a good friend who is the kindest most giving person in there, plus the most placid.
If someone took you aside and said, " ahh, you know him do you?" and you say, " yeah, he's a top bloke, what you see is what you get and kind hearted with it all."
If you were then to be told that your good friend beats the crap out of his wife on a regular basis...you are going to go into defensive mode and maybe tell the person to politely piss off as you are not listening to idle gossip.
If over time, other people kept mentioning the wife beater, you would then have two choices. You can plug your ears and close your eyes, not believing a word, or you can start to wonder if the person you're sitting with, is not the person you thought he was.
10 years down the line since seeing your friend, (due to moving into ausGeoffs, maybe), you see a write up about your pub chum on charges of wife battery, spanning decades. Only then would you loosen your mankini and look at ausGeoff and say, " oh my goodness, Geoffrey' you know that mate I used to drink with before I decided to stay with you in sunny Australia?" And Geoffrey would say, " yeah, what about it cobber?" And you would say, "the people were right, he was a wife beater and I just didn't bloody listen, sport." Then Geoffrey would say, "ok, cobber, but stop acting all Australian with this sport nonsense; you're Canadian and it should teach you a lesson to start listening."
From this point on, you could then decide that your conversations with your anti gravity acrobatic astronaut friends, may not be what you thought and they could be talking to you whilst sitting in a tea room at NASA, filling you full of any old guff.
Do you see what I mean, starman?
Of course; the opposite could happen and the whispers could be idle gossip. The point is; you will never know, unless you actually start to really take a good look. Take a different approach to things, even if it's just for your own peace of mind.
After all; who's going to be the most infuriated if it turns out we have been fed a load of clap trap? Me or you?
You see; I will simply say, "ah well, there you go, we found out it was bull crap.2
You will think, " you sly, duping, lying, acting buggers. You had me talking on my ham radio, thinking you were up there. I feel so let down that I'm inclined to run in front of ausGeoff and scream, then pull my mankini to one side and shout, WIGGLE WIGGLE, COBBER, WE'VE BEEN DONE UP LIKE A PAIR OF KIPPERS, COBBER."
Do you see what I'm saying, starman?
