Animal’s Looney Tuesday News

Derp BearThis came in over the transom today from an old friend who found the site, one Exopolitics.org, well, amusing.  The stories and excerpts are presented along with a series of images chosen by yr. obdt. to represent the intellectual depth and veracity of the stories very, very well.

First:  Did A UFO Doc With International Space Station for Alien Astronaut Meeting?  Excerpt:

On January 29, 2014 the live camera feed of the International Space Station (ISS) showed what appeared to be a strange yellow elliptical object docked with the hull of the ISS. The live camera feed was Jackassquickly recorded and uploaded to Youtube, and is generating much interest as possible evidence of a UFO interacting with the ISS. This has led to claims that the UFO was docked so that extraterrestrials could meet with NASA astronauts. The idea that alien ships could dock with the ISS and have meetings with its occupants is supported by the claims of a former NASA employee who during his 34 year service worked on numerous NASA missions and finally as a Space Craft Operator. He claims to have witnessed a similar alien rendezvous during a U.S. Space Shuttle mission just before his security clearance was revoked by NASA in 1992.

Froot LoopsOne hopes these visiting aliens have no ill intent.  Were they to prove hostile, though, we always have the option to send Will Smith and Jeff Goldblum to the ISS to hack the alien spaceship’s main computer with an old MacBook and make them self-destruct.

Right?

But wait!  There’s more!   More NASA Footage of UFO Docked At International Space Station.   Excerpt:

Yesterday the entire footage of what appears to be a UFO docked at the International Space State (ISS) was released and uploaded to Youtube. BoneheadThe video shows the sleek looking yellow UFO docked at the ISS for just over two minutes with the Earth slowly rotating in the background. The video ends with ISS live feed going into blue screen mode. This likely indicates that NASA cut the ISS live feed once it was realized that the video of the UFO docked at the ISS was going live to the world. The docking positioning of the UFO suggests that it is not the result of a camera anomaly but a genuine spacecraft of unknown origin.

The incident happened on January 29, 2014 and was transmitted by NASA’s live camera feed of the ISS which is made freely available on the internet to the general public on Ustream.

Well, it’s on the internet, and they have a video.  It must be true, right?

ScrewballRight?

It’s a wonder why so many people believe in weird things.  TV programming on things like ghosts, Bigfoot and UFOs are still popular.   And we live now in a time where almost everyone has a still and video camera instantly to hand, all the time, contained in their smart phone, and yet we still somehow seem to have no photos or videos of any of these oddities that are not obviously fake, blurry, barely recognizable as anything more than a lens flare or a dust bunny.

Smiling BearBut then, there are still people who believe in leprechauns, Bigfoot, fairies, and that Obamacare was a good idea.
