I agree more likely ice, I am just using "dust" as a convienient all encompassing label, something I have not spelled out but it's of no importance to me.
Why would I have a problem with you saying STS-48 or the Tether footage is dust? (More likely Ice chips from the Shuttle)
The problem is that these are the only two pieces of footage anyone ever talks about. I believe that I have said all along that there are many UFOs and the STS-48 and Tether incident are not the only footage from NASA.

But this thread started off on the STS 48 description, I brought up the subject of the tether in my first post, I only went back to the subject of the tether because someone mentioned the 31 min film, after I looked at that I thought I was discussing the tether with you.

If it changed directions it was not a shooting star.

Wig:
a couple apper to go behind the tether, this is easily explainable as an optical illusion

Sorry for bringing this post back to life, but I just watched the video, and just found this forum. While many thought provoking ideas are brought up, I would have to say the conclusions were pretty laughable.
While the tether footage my appear to have the objects floating behind them, I believe they are in fact just small particles that are out of focus floating close in front of the lens. Here is the explanation of why I believe this.
I’ll start with the illusion of the artifacts floating behind the tether. In my belief the artifacts are very small and their size comes from being out of focus, they are just airy discs. When passing "in front" of the tether, the fuzziness of the particle is overwhelmed by the intensity of the light coming from the tether. Therefore you only see the light coming from the tether. In the film you can also see the camera changing focus and the discs coming, I believe, closer into focus, losing their disc shape, and taking the form of a less out of focus, bright blurry dust particle.
I have a few questions too about the disks. Why are they all broadside to camera. Every one of them where seen perfectly from the top, or bottom, but none from a side view. Isn’t that a bit odd. Your explanation may be that they are orbs, and that they look that way from every angle, but that wouldn’t make any sense because there are notches in the “discs”. And if they were orbs that would not tie in with his Dropa stones. Which were interesting, if they are actually authentic.
Also these notches, have no bearing on the direction of their flight, this may not mean anything, but from my experience when vehicles have similar markings on them, the markings are usually in a corresponding location to their direction of travel, whether it be right, left, front, back, top, or bottom.

Post a screen grab of the one you are specifically talking about and I'll have a look and give my opinion. I am unable to do screen grabs, so if you are the same just try to describe which one you mean.
