I hate the tether footage for the simple fact that no intelligence is shown in the movement of the objects. Light can play tricks on the camera. You start dealing with charged particles and a charged tether, the tricks could be even more. There are simply to many possible answers. I have to agree with Edgar Mitchell on this one.
Now, Toxic, maybe you can help me out with this. Back in maybe the 90's ?, I don't remember when for sure, it was a long time ago, I was watching a live Nasa feed. There was an object traveling over the horizon of the earth and then out of the blue an object from earth heading at it at high speed. Right before, and I mean right before the object from earth was about to hit the object in orbit, the object in orbit shot off faster than hell and the object coming from earth just past through the spot it was just at. I wasn't the only person who saw it. I think I remember it being talked about on Art Bell. I've since tried to find the footage of that and can't. I found some video where they say a plasma weapon is being fired at a ufo, but that is not the same footage and not nearly as impressive and looks rather random. If you know of an upload of what I'm talking about, I would love to see that again. If I remember right, Nasa went to a delayed feed after that. things that show intelligence like that are way more impressive to me.
