Yeah, I gotta agree. I think it's a bit "Odd" that so many legit tracking facilities (the USAF, the USN, the Venezuelan Communications Ministry, the Smithsonian Observatory at Harvard, the Grumman Aircraft Corp in NY, the French Space Commision, the Australian Space Command, and others) and even a visual observation by a NASA astronaut all saw this "object" (or possibly, TWO!) in a ->POLAR <- orbit back in the 50s and 60s(!!!), yet we're supposed to believe it was a sheet of insulation lost in 1998(!!!) by the STS???? --- I'm sure the STS lost a "space blanket" and that is what's in all those photos popping up on the net, but unless that thing found John Crichton's wormhole (Farscape) and traveled Back In Time, . . . these just ain't the same critters.?
Personally, I don't give much credence to those radio messages from Mars, or Epsilon Bootis, or wherever that some folks like to have lumped into this "conspiracy". I think their inclusion is just a further attempt to cloud the issue and shove it hard over into the Pure Nutter Files. (Thank You MJ-12/13 and your host of loyal minions. LOL)
IMO, ~ something ~ was, and possibly still is, out there, and WE of planet Earth sure as heck did not put it there! === It would sure be a nice change of pace to get some REAL answers to yet another Amazing Space Mystery rather than just more Humbug & Hogwash!?
Keep It FUN!
