Now of course we're left with satellites, space junk and ice particles but at least were down to only a couple viable options leaving a genuine unidentified flying object out in the lead!

I know we had an only-just-spotted NEO go past on the 2nd.
It was 5m and 0.6 Lunar distance from earth.
But obviously thats the wrong date.
Might be an explanation though, it the date turns out to be wrong on either in the end..
Other than that, no ideas.

OK so you know what to do.
First rule out satellites, then rule out space junk, then rule out ice particles and then you will be left with a.... UFO

Thanks for your comment but sadly.....how are we to rule anything out? It's not like we can take role call and account for all the space junk/satellites and where their exact whereabouts that moment.
So......we're at a complete disadvantage left only with common sense, opinions and some times, math.
Q: How much of it is “space junk”?
A: Very little, actually – if you use the standard definition of “space junk” to mean other satellites and pieces off of them, which constitute an impact hazard to human space missions and automated satellites as well. Because all orbiting objects are moving at tremendous speeds in different directions, when they do pass closely to each other, they zip past at several miles per second. Thus they are extremely difficult to detect visually. Astronauts have observed other distant satellites, but not often, and I have never found a single case of a nearby object turning out to be a passing satellite in independent orbit. Anything that was seen over a period of time longer than a few seconds would have to have been something closely following the observer, and thus associated with the vehicle from which the observation was being made. Now, that's unless it was somebody else’s vehicle deliberately keeping pace, of course. But "space junk" as we commonly use the term? Hardly ever, maybe never.

I'm not sure why the ISS light seems to brighten up, almost like a pulsation when this object passes in the background but it makes this that much more interesting.
Also, I do believe this is the same object seen twice as the video is looped.

Lot's of activity out there .....out of our sight.

I wonder if NASA will eventually turn off their ISS feed like they did in the 90's with the live Shuttle missions (after they were capturing too many unexplainable UFOs)

Look more carefully, HA. That's the space shuttle payload bay.
Shuttles have been grounded since last July. How could this video have been made this week?

Not being versed on the anatomy of the SS (nor its bay), I'd have no idea of knowing this.
So how do you know this? What's giving it away for you? Is there any earmarks that telling you this is the SS and not the ISS?
Thanks

Are you suggesting that you are comfortable in eliminating space junk and ice?....or are my eyes reading your post the wrong way?
Can you actually be joining the "I have no idea what this can be" side of the discussion? If so, WOW

I doubt it would be in their interest to, I’m pretty sure they will use at an excuse for more funding.
All we need now is for another country to say they are extending research into the phenomena and will be the first country to solve it. that may just push them into coming out with information they already have.
