I thought this was pretty interesting. A photograph taken by the Mir space station during the 1999 eclipse. You can see the two "unidentified" objects just above the earth and to the left. The commentary below the image says that these are POSSIBLY images of Saturn and Jupiter but they go on to say that this has never been confirmed. The one on the bottom looks way more like a planet than the one above it and its possible they are but you never know.. right?

Explanation: Here is what the Earth looks like during a solar eclipse. The shadow of the Moon can be seen darkening part of Earth. This shadow moved across the Earth at nearly 2000 kilometers per hour. Only observers near the center of the dark circle see a total solar eclipse - others see a partial eclipse where only part of the Sun appears blocked by the Moon. This spectacular picture of the 1999 August 11 solar eclipse was one of the last ever taken from the Mir space station. The two bright spots that appear on the upper left are possibly Jupiter and Saturn, although this has yet to be proven. Mir was deorbited in a controlled re-entry in 2001.

THE MIR UFO CHRONICLES:

28 September 1990: MIR Cosmonaut Gennadij Strekhalov reports "an unidentified flying object... a large sphere, silver-coloured, glistening" over Newfoundland. Later, in a video-taped interview with Uvarov, he described it as "like a Christmas-tree-decoration, very beautiful and glittering. I saw it for ten seconds ... a perfect sphere ... it appeared and disappeared suddenly."

Beginning of 1991: MIR Kosmonaut Musa Manarov filmed the approach of a PROGRESS cargo flight, when he suddenly discovered a cigar-shaped object, surrounded by a rotating light, floating in space. He filmed the complete maneuver of the UFO for over two minutes. (see UFOs: Footage Archives, part 2) In 16 May 1996, he was interviewed by our co-worker Valerii Uvarov. August 1991: A luminous sphere comes from deep space, passes MIR and enters the earth atmosphere - filmed by the Cosmonauts Volkov and Krikaliov. The footage was officially released by the Russian Space administration. (see: UFOs: The FOOTAGE ARCHIVES, part 5)

18 November 1995: Another UFO sighting by the MIR cosmonauts was filmed, the film released by the Russian Space authorities.
17 May 1997: Before docking MIR, astronauts of the NASA Space Shuttle mission STS-84 film several UFOs, including a triangular formation, passing the Russian Space Station. The images were radioed to Earth and received by a Florida radio amateur. Two years later, the Russian Space Administration released their images of the same phenomenon.

On March 21, Germany´s SAT 1-Television interviewed Hesemann on the UFOs-MIR-connection. The interview was broadcast in the Late Afternoon News of 22 March (Hesemann´s 37th birthday!) and repeated during the life broadcast of the MIR re-entry on Friday morning.
