Of course this video of the STS-125 and Hubble undocking has been manipulated by
the guy who made the upload to disclosetv or whatever website. This is unfortunate
because by manipulating the original footage he disqualified himself this sequence.
I'll explain.
1- The first images are a compositon of two different transmissions of the same
event but at different times. To the left is the original tuesday May 19 broadcast of
the Hubble undocking BUT this guy accelerated the speed four times to give the
images a theatrical effect of a UFO. At normal speed that light or star or whatever
takes a very long time to describe the movement wich is consistent with a star or
planet or maybe a satellite. The point is by speeding up the video this guy was in
fact disguising the real movement of the light because he knew very well may reveal
the real identity of the light, so obvious. Complete manipulation of the footage.
I insist that historical data should not be manipulated, tampered, edited, overdubbed
etc. just to get a theatrical effect in order to convince people of something. The
action in this STS-125 footage didn't happen the way this guy pretends happened.
By doing this he left a lot to be desired.
To the right is a sequence recorded inside Atlantis cockpit by one astronaut just when
they are undocking the Hubble but this sequence was broadcast hours later that when
the event took place, just as a replay from a different view. This guy just mixed the
two sequences into a split screen to give more spectacle to the video. But he cheated
in my opinion by not giving the real reference of the footage AS IT happened.
