Before you think oh here we go another UFO nut, Im not, in fact, I am out to clarify some information up for a guy who has a large following on a youtube channel.
First, here is his channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCW4k9vXjgOSDcYq6Ge9hWWg
Mr Crow777 has many videos of objects flying in front of the moon. You cannot tell what they are, because his focus is on the moon and not on the object in question.
Current satellite mapping doesn't highlight what these are (most likely defense satellite/spy satellites i would assume) but Im trying to explain to him, that going to a bigger megapixel camera isn't going to solve his issue (he is getting money from supporters...) what I am telling him, is that he needs to focus on the object itself - unfortunately, you cant predict when these objects are going to pass in front of the moon because they're not listed, hence they are either what I have just said they are, which is defence satellites/spy satellites - or even what he believes they are, which are U.F.O.s (not necessarily alien, but unidentified).
So - crazy stuff out of the way and with so many great astrophotographers on here, would someone kindly do an experiment for me?
I know you are quite happy leaving up your equipment for many hours on end taking thousands of short/long exposures to build up the fantastic images that you produce, but I was wondering if you could humour me by pointing your equipment at the moon, recording it over a couple of nights and then seeing if you can spot any weird objects.
According to Mr.Crow777, he gets a line that shimmers up the screen over the moon (he has many videos on his channel), declaring it is some holographic
object in the sky. I'd like to disprove that by saying its his equipment, but explaining in such a way, he can understand it - and so can his supporters. We're talking tends of thousands of supporters, none of which have a clue about photography and like me, even more do not have a clue about astrophotography. I bet there are users here, who watch Crow777's videos but maybe are a little scared to post up what I am, because they dont want to be seen as a nut. Im not scared, Im just out to find out the truth, put an end to some conspiracy theory about a holographic moon (they think its hiding things on the moons surface...)
If you are able to find black spots that fly across the moons surface, and record it as video and/or if possible zoom in close enough to be able to identify its outline/shape that would be amazing.
Those of you who do know me, know Im not some UFO nut (although I'd be pretty arrogant to think we're the only species in the whole universe so I do believe in other lifeforms, whether or not they are here is a different subject),but I would like to be able to physically show him that there are people <always> watching space/always watching the stars and the items he sees are easily explained away with either a technical issue (in the case of the shimmering) or the black dots are indeed satellites, but are not listed because (1) they're dead debris or (2) defence/spy satellites.
I would really appreciate someone who can help here.
I'll wet my pants if you turn around and say theres nothing wrong with his equipment and that shimmering <should not> be happening and you record it also - its not a technical issue with your equipment and I'll brown pants myself if you say the objects flying past the moon are not debris or satellites.
Please humour me
