What are these mysterious objects filmed flying close to the moon?

I think I can hazard a guess as to what this is…

Someone has set up a well-timed shot to get REAL footage of satellites passing in front of the moon. Given the close proximity of the objects to each other, my guess is Musk’s Starlink Light-polluting space-junk.
They have then decided “oh, wouldn’t it be cool if …” And they’ve edited in the slightly preposterous shadows, and the “blinking out” that we see in the final footage.

Agreed, but my knowledge of the subject is effectively zero.

To you, and @Chuck_Morris, @Mike_MinMD, @pro_ir , @Villdoc, @Space_builder, @sunnyvaleken, @Christian_Soto, and any other newcomers I missed,

Too bad no one else watches the Moon for strange events.

The main thing that says “fake” to me is the fact that the shadows go through the edge of the sunny side of the Moon, i.e. where sunlight is nearly tangent to the surface, i.e. a sunset (or sunrise, or whatever it is locally). This means the shadows should have been waaaay longer than the objects themselves. At the point where they hit the unlit side of the Moon, the shadows should have elongated until they became long straight lines.

Pretty decent VFX?

Alternately, their actual mass behaves differently than we expect, due to advanced (or at least unfamiliar) technology.

The images are faked, as you say, and we needn’t waste synaptic precursors wondering if or how aliens (or rogue DARPA aerospace ninja-engineers) are messing with physics.

I’m just being thorough, in case aliens (or Jacques Vallée clones from alternate cosmi) are tapping this line. “Keep listening to the Ears!”

Shadows on the surface of the moon would not be visible by an object at that height. And the shadows are coming from the wrong direction. :grinning:

h there are some funny things you can do on t6he moon. give “the long utopia” a read.

In that book the von-neuman-esque Aliens use material from the moon to build a Dyson-Motor which would rip earth (ok earth version 1.2 Mil) apart for materials.

Could they be dolphins? Has anyone checked to see if our dolphins are all gone?

It’s 100% fake. Here are all the resources you need to do it yourself:

  1. NASA CGI Moon Kit, which includes high-resolution topographic data from LRO (important for realistic shadows): svs.gsfc.nasa.gov/4720
  2. Blender, a swiss-army knife for computer animation and digital production: blender.org

This is a trivial shot to recreate if you have the time.

A much more convincing video
