we have managed to put eyes in space that allow us to observe what is happening outside in real
time despite the fact that we cannot survive in space for very long even the most experienced
astronomers have trouble explaining some of the weird things that these camera eyes have captured
in the past NASA's top scientists recently made a significant Revelation following the
discovery of unusual activity above the Earth by a satellite let's find out more about this
as the tech billionaire Elon Musk will update us all hello everyone welcome back to Elon
Musk Evolution where we bring you the most recent news about Elon Musk and his multi-billion dollar
companies space news and the latest science and technology but before we begin make sure

according to musk the International Space Station or ISS is one of Humanity's most significant
accomplishments although it performs many essential tasks the cameras because of what they
frequently photographed are some of the building's most intriguing aspects the majority of these will
stun you the ISS which took years to build is the biggest single structure that humans have
ever launched into space between 1998 and 2011 the primary building was completed yet brand new parts
are always being introduced to provide room for fresh missions and research since November 2000 it
has always been occupied then who owns the ISS the ISS is not owned by NASA despite the fact that it
is the most well-known space agency in the world it is a joint initiative by the five countries of
Europe the U.S Russia Canada and Japan NASA spends roughly three billion dollars yearly operating
the ISS which accounts for nearly one-third of its total budget for human space flight
in comparison to the 158 Personnel the U.S has set 54 people from Russia another important partner
have been deployed as it is so prominent in the night sky you can actually view the ISS without
any special equipment its brightness Rivals that of the dazzling planet Venus and is visible as a
bright moving point of light musk explained the ISS is composed of what the station systems are
housed in the first Russian modules which also Supply crew members with living quarters nodes
which connect the station's many components to one another extend out along the Space Station's sides
these solar panels which are clearly visible in the station's images use the sun's energy
to generate electricity using a lengthy truss the Eraser joined to the station the temperature of
the space station is managed using radiators on the truss robotic arms that are positioned
outside the space station can be used to transfer astronauts when they are on spacewalks outside
they were utilized to create the space station science experiments are conducted by other arms
via airlocks that open to the outside astronauts can do spacewalks and images of them floating in
space are very popular because they appear surreal other spacecraft can dock with the space station
using docking ports these ports serve as entry points for new Crews and guests Russian soyuz
spacecraft carry astronauts to the space station while robotic spacecraft delivers supplies through
the docking ports even if you haven't given it much attention the ISS has a significant impact on
your daily life because much of the research done there has led to items that we use on Earth every
day and due to their requirements some scientific study can only be done in the station there are a
total of four external cameras on the ISS which SpaceX supplied as part of the manned mission
the four cameras that make up the Columbus eye are high definition video or hdev cameras that
are placed on the Columbus lab of the ISS the University of Bonn in Germany which collaborated
with the German space agency to create the Columbus eye program runs a live streaming
website although cots or commercial off-the-shelf cameras were given an official sounding term by
NASA they essentially accomplished the same thing as all other cameras they catch live feed
they're connected through an ethernet cable to the computer on the space station and beam down
to earth with one video camera facing forward two facing backward one facing down and one facing
above NASA is Dependable for turning everything into an experiment when the cameras are exposed
to Cosmic radiation researchers monitored the rate at which the quality of the image is degraded they
also tested how durable the camera housing was under the harsh conditions an airtight temperature
controlled enclosure contains the cameras for their protection Engineers May pick which camera
kinds are the best utilize on next missions after analyzing how they are holding up musk remarked
these cameras produce some fascinating broadcasts and many people especially amateur astronomers
follow the feed online yet occasionally something that stirs up a lot of excitement is captured by
the cameras people occasionally see objects that strikingly resemble unexplained flying objects
as things get dramatic NASA frequently cuts the live feed and changes to pre-recorded
content confusing viewers and giving rise to the popular belief that the space agency is
concealing information from the General Public but precisely what is NASA hiding from us consider a
recent incident when there were expert theories of alien sightings in an effort to hide the truth
Street cap 1 a YouTube user uploaded a video of a live stream that NASA
unexpectedly stopped just before a bright object from the Clipper telescope slowly came into view
the feed is having technical issues because the screen flashes at that precise moment extremely
convenient but viewers weren't blind to the fact that pausing the feed was quite odd and they made
that observation what made it intriguing was the camera Switched Off when the UFOs appeared
to Halt this might very well be a meteor or as Street cap one suggests in the caption
in order to clarify that the live broadcast was not cut intentionally NASA spokesman Daniel
Hewitt attempted to State the agency's official perspective according to Musk
Hewitt who was present claimed that the International Space Station's cameras
are automatically operated and that the station frequently flies outside the range of the tracking
and data relay satellites used to transmit and receive video voice and Telemetry from the station
the cameras will display a pre-selected video slate or a blue screen whenever we
lose signal others however turn to social media to dispute NASA's assertion insisting
that things did not add up and that NASA might be concealing evidence of aliens
yet this is not the only instance in which UFOs have been photographed by ISS cameras
nevertheless this time the footage was captured and posted on a YouTube channel run by well-known
UFO Watcher Scott C Waring before NASA could stop the transmission according to Waring NASA is the
one zooming in on the UFO in the video they are as perplexed by it as I am and have no idea what it
is or why it is there the thing didn't resemble anything he had ever seen before anybody who
has followed the ISS knows that the facility is not unfamiliar with mysterious objects because
to this day no adequate explanation that is not UFO linked has been offered according to musk it
makes sense since extraterrestrial life that has seen the ISS due to its enormous size may wish
to consider sending down probes Ivan Wagner a Russian cosmonaut who orbited the Earth on
the ISS released footage of suspected UFOs he was filming the southern light when he happened to be
in the right place at the right moment the Aurora Australis is seen for one minute as it moves close
to Australia and Antarctica however Wagner noted that there is more to be seen in the video and
in the 9 to 12 second segment five objects appear and are visible flying nearby at the same distance
as this was happening Wagner saw the UFOs for 52 seconds but the feed was cut short since it
was time lapsed while analyzing the video Ross Cosmos the Russian space agency also posted it
on its Twitter account Wagner posted the video on his account when Wagner captured the video he
was a first-time crew member of the ISS it should come as no surprise that NASA never
acknowledged Wagner's video the agency's blog only stated that Wagner worked on the station's
orbital Plumbing before looking into ways to improve Earth photography techniques even
the American astronaut Wagner collaborated and completely disregarded Wagner's video
although it is within NASA's authority to look into such claims there is a well-established
theory of the agency disregarding reports of UFO encounters but as interest in UFOs has
grown recently in the U.S and around the world it is becoming more difficult to ignore the subject
government-funded study on UFOs for instance has been conducted and is still being conducted
also the Pentagon has documented encounters with uaps sometimes known as flying objects
the Last Frontier has seen the discovery of several asteroids and other space debris but
now researchers have spotted an Interstellar visitor this visitor seems unusual because it
has never been observed before in the annals of space exploration musk says our understanding
of the universe will change as a result of the finding of this extraterrestrial visitor thus
experts are perplexed by this development and have continued to learn more about it on October 14
2017 a weird Cosmic object passed by our planet without anyone recognizing it five days later
while the spacecraft was leaving the solar system it was unintentionally discovered Robert Warwick
a postdoctoral researcher at the University of Hawaii Institute of astrophysics discovered it
during the National Aeronautics and Space administrations nightly searched for near-earth
objects he detected the interstellar object using a panoramic survey telescope and Rapid
reaction system pan Stars when it finally located the moving object it looked up the location in
the pan star's image database and discovered it there despite the fact that the location
of the information Hub and the place where the images were sent to the minor planet center were
previously unknown as soon as the interstellar object was discovered it was noted that it had
peculiar characteristics including a cigar-like shape unusual speed an odd orbit and peculiar
features a comet's orbit or data from asteroids in the conventional solar system could not be used to
understand the object's movements a graduate of the Hawaii Institute of astronomy Marco Michelli
was approached by him after the data were combined Marco also requested that some follow-up photos be
taken at the telescope operated by the European Space Agency in the Canary Islands on Tenerife
everything pointed to the fact that it was an odd spacecraft that originated from outside the solar
system a statement was made on this discovery by a scientist from the NASA Center for near-earth
object studies in California we can declare with certainty that this object is leaving the solar
system and will not be returning because of its incredibly rapid speed and trajectory he claimed
that even the object's orbit was unfounded since it appeared as though a second force was pulling
from behind another important factor was the force of gravity which its discovers called
umuamua the scientists at the center for near-earth object studies observed umuamua as the
first extra solar object to reach our solar system their research revealed the events that led to the
object entering our solar system as well as its trajectory and where it was likely to go according
to their findings the objects entered our solar system from a location that was practically
straight above the ecliptic the plane in space known as the ecliptic is where the planets and
some asteroids orbit the Sun the object which originated in this region did not run into any
of the eight major planets on its way to the sun on September 2 or later before coming the closest
to the Sun Mercury passed through the elliptic plane of its orbit the object made a hairpin
turn under our solar system seven days later when it was being pushed by the gravity of the earth
umuamua traveled under Earth's orbit at a distance of around 15 million miles before rebounding again
it moved 44 kilometers per second above the planets as it headed in the direction of the
Pegasus constellation umuamua was orbiting the Sun three times as quickly as the Earth was
at this speed according to Musk it wasn't just that the scientists had a small window of time
to analyze the item due to its speed as it had already passed past our planet umuamua likewise
appears too small and dull to be seen there were speculations concerning space objects like these
around the time it was found before umuumua was discovered such hypotheses were validated
by Thomas zerbuchin assistant administrator for NASA's science mission directorate in Washington
he claimed that since the finding of umuamua there has been no more conjecture regarding Interstellar
objects telescopes all around the world were activated to examine the color brightness and
orbit which not only proved their existence but also indicated that there was a limited
amount of time remaining to research umuamua to follow umuamua's observations from ground-based
telescopes which were crucial for obtaining the best data an interferometer was used even
though the European Southern observatories have very large telescopes of Their Own
images from the European Southern observatory's telescope were combined with those from other
large telescopes using four different filters from there a team of astronomers led by Karen
Jean meech at The Institute of astronomy in Hawaii found that as it rotates on its axis
every 7.3 hours its brightness varies by a factor of 10. they observed that umuamua had a brightness
difference that was comparable to none of the asteroids or comets in our solar system
meech added to his earlier remarks on its brightness by stating that the object's enormous
brightness difference indicates both its length and width it is 10 times longer than it is wide
and has a complicated shape they discovered that it has a reddish Hue with a few objects in the
outer solar system the telescope's findings also show that it had no detectable dust surrounding
it and was chemically inactive scientists theories about umuumua being a comet kept growing for those
of you curious enormous fuzzy comet-like tails are a Hallmark of comets nevertheless the telescopic
observations did not show it to produce such a large fuzzy tail musk says after being burned
by the sun this was not the case even though umuamua following these observations had been
made in scientific journals and Global headlines internationally everyone was curious about
umuumua but what is it exactly was it a block of solid hydrogen a novel class of interstellar
object or was it perhaps a man-made structure built by a highly developed extraterrestrial
civilization as Harvard University astronomy Professor Avi Loeb had suggested the possibility
of an umuamua being made by a highly developed civilization was discussed in the study that
Avi lobe and his colleagues undertook at the time these possibilities were being discussed
Avi claims that this is why umuamua behaves in a way that is comparable to a comet they indicated
that is an artificial thin solar rail that could accelerate through the force of solar radiation
despite the fact that other scientists appeared to disagree with avi's Theory it does not experience
gravitational acceleration from the Sun they argue that the study's conclusion that an accelerating
solar rail would not be possible for a tumbling rail is not supported by sufficient evidence after
continuing his investigation Avi finally published a paper outlining the umuamua's six abnormalities
as well as the ways in which they differ from other asteroids and comets that have been observed
since the beginning of space exploration since the report was released scientists have utilized
these spits to space telescopes to determine how much carbon outgassing standard comets have
these observations provided evidence that umua shines 10 times more brightly than a typical Comet
or to put it another way they provided evidence of how luminous a normal comet is even when all these
observations have been taken into account there is still insufficient evidence to either support
or refute his theory but many astronomers don't think it is musk explained the hydrogen ice theory
is one of several Genesis explanations for umuamua that emerged as the discussions went on according
to his theory umuamua has so much hydrogen that the heat from the Sun would be needed to turn the
hydrogen from Ice to gas the amuamua's ability to travel across space at their speed also explains
why there isn't a coma of fuzziness surrounding it according to scientists this notion would make it
very difficult to see the coma with telescopes since the atmosphere distorts its wavelengths
the shape of the object also lends Credence to this notion with that being said we will
investigate this more in our next video meanwhile that ends today's episode what do you think of
