What you are about to see is quite remarkable. It
seems that some of the stars above us are not stars at all...as you
shall see. A young man by the name of John Lenard Walson has
discovered a new way to extend the capabilities of small telescopes
and has been able to achieve optical resolutions - at almost the
diffraction limit - not commonly achievable. With this new-found
ability, he has proceeded to videotape, night and day, many strange
and heretofore unseen objects in earth orbit. The resulting
astrophotographic video footage has revealed a raft of machines,
hardware, satellites, spacecraft and possibly space ships which
otherwise appear as 'stars'...if they appear at all.
There are, indeed, hundreds of satellites in Earth
orbit as you will read in the summary which follows. However, the
iamges you will see are clearly of large and sizeable machines which
have not been seen before.
Let's start with one such object in orbit as
videotaped by John Lenard Walson. It is the International Space
Station...the ISS...take a look...
Keeping that image and it's relative size appearance
in mind, now ask yourself, what is THIS?...
And if you find that one intriguing, here are more
examples of the scores of space objects above us John Walson has
captured on tape...
Once again, here is what the ISS looks like through
the telescope and video camera lens of astrophotographer
Walson...
And here is the actual video footage from which the
above freeze frame is taken followed by some footage of something that
is NOT the ISS. What is it?
If you might be wondering what the Shuttle looks
like, here it is...
So, what are these other huge machines
and spacecraft?
Now let's take a look at some of Walson's remarkable
video footage showing satellites and spaceships (?) above our heads in
Earth orbit.
How Many Known Satellites Are In Orbit? How
Much 'Junk'?
Keeping the footage you've just seen in
mind, here is what the Union Of Concerned Scientists has to say
about orbiting spacecraft and satellites in Earth orbit...
There are more than 800 active satellites currently
in orbit. Amazingly, they represent four percent of the
total number of objects currently cataloged by the U.S. space
surveillance network; the rest includes abandoned satellites, spent
rocket boosters, and other debris.
The United States owns more than 400 active
satellites, just over 50 percent of all satellites. Russia and China
have the second and third highest number of space assets, owning 89
and 35 satellites, respectively.
Civilian satellites, which perform tasks for the
commercial, scientific, and government sectors, make up the majority
of U.S. satellites. Russia's space assets are split nearly evenly
between military and civil missions, though there are not separate
military and civilian space programs. Only a very small percentage of
other countries' satellites are military in nature.
.
Uses for Satellites Approximately two-thirds of all
active satellites are used for communications. Satellites for
navigation, military surveillance, Earth observation and remote
sensing, astrophysics and space physics, and Earth science and
meteorology missions each comprise about five to seven percent of
total satellites.
Satellite Orbits Satellites orbit Earth in several
distinct regions of space:
Low Earth orbits (LEO)-about 80 kilometers (km) to
2000 km above Earth Includes: military intelligence satellites,
weather satellites
Geosynchronous orbits (GEO)-36,000 km above Earth
Includes: commercial and military communications satellites,
satellites providing early warning of ballistic missile launch
Medium Earth orbits (MEO)-between LEO and GEO
Includes: navigation satellites (Navstar, Glonass)
Molniya orbit-a highly elliptical orbit with a
12-hour period Includes: communication satellites for regions near the
North Pole
Orbital Debris Orbital debris is any human-made
object in orbit that no longer serves a useful purpose, including
discarded equipment, abandoned satellites, bolts and other hardware
released during satellite deployment, and particles from explosions or
collisions.
The table below gives current estimates of orbital
debris in three size categories. As the table shows, approximately 40
percent of all orbital debris larger than one millimeter in size is in
LEO. Large numbers of naturally occurring particles ("meteoroids") add
to the total number of orbital objects less than one centimeter in
size, but are not included in this table.

So, what is John Lenard Walson videotaping with his
proprietary telescope videocam technique? Are these just satellites
and space junk? Or, are we seeing large and very sophisticated
spacecraft for the first time that we AREN'T supposed to see?
Next is another video freeze frame of a sunlit
spacecraft shown at the top of the picture. Below it is a SECOND
craft which happened to pass by at an extremely high rate
of speed. John pulled a single frame from his video (at
30 frames per second) and sent it to us for a closer
look.
Contrast broadening of this freeze frame below
reveals hidden visual data, including the enormity of the
spacecraft as well as what might be a third smaller craft at the
bottom of the frame....
Are We Supposed To Be Seeing These
Things?
Walson received the following comment about one of
the videos. Does it answer all the questions? No, but perhaps
some of them...
"Hello again. And, again, my congratulations on your
superb astrophotography.
MIT Lincoln Laboratory is the group which has built
some of the things you are seeing. Much of what they do is what used
to be the Star Wars project, which no doubt involves some of your
objects."
Maybe some of Walson's images ARE of sensitive,
secret US military Star Wars machines. Maybe even 'secret'
weapons platforms in space, which the US military has been rumored to
have for at least 20 years.
Remember, also, the young UK hacker, Gary McKinnon,
who got into the Pentagon database years ago and found a secret US
Navy file titled 'Non-Terrestrial Officers'. McKinnon now faces
LIFE in a US prison for hacking into those Pentagon files. Here is
more on McKinnon:
Judging by the following video footage taken by Walson
at his home, it is clear he has ventured into territory that is, shall
we say, 'disconcerting' to some government or military agencies who
don't like him videotaping these large, mysterious orbiting machines.
The result of Walson's 'impertinence' was the almost immediate
inauguration of routine visits from numerous unmarked large helicopters
which began regular day and night visits to his home. Here are some
still frames from video John recorded of his tormentors. Pay particular
attention to the huge, twin-rotor Chinook's pass right over the tree in
his backyard (top right, below) to give you an idea of how serious these
flights are. And how clear the message is intended to
be.
Here is a small sample of the video showing the
outrageous helicopter harassment, intimidation and threats Walson
endures...
In addition to discovering and refining his optical
telescope videotaping technique, John has also discovered how to
actually hear and record the sounds in real time coming from the
particular craft he is videotaping. By carefully aligning
a satellite dish receiver with his telescope, he has been
able to record some very unusual and intriguing sound from the
different spacecraft...
In summary, what you have seen are spacecraft, and
maybe even space ships, parked or stationed in orbit above the Earth.
It's clear the major space powers are far more heavily-invested in space
than they will admit. As a reflection of that reality, there has been a
lot of recent talk about 'anti-satellite' weapons 'needed' by competing
countries to 'protect themselves.' Most recently, China has been
discussing its anti-sat programs and even threatened to destroy or
disable all GPS satellites which overfly Chinese territory.
It's anyone's guess how many billions the US military
and government have poured into black ops NASA-facilitated programs
of 'secret' spying and surveillance programs, and military space
weapons systems over the decades. John Lenard Walson's video images and
sounds may well show some of these advanced machines. It is also within
the realm of possibility some of these items might be products of
non-human intelligence. Of course, the people who would know
aren't talking. There is much more to the John Lenard Walson
story... more images and videos will become available soon. In the
meantime, here are more current examples of Walson's mysteries to
consider... all of which he is making available for free...
