Spacecritters inside the ISS

Well then you're missing out on having a valid comment on this subject.

Pretty pointless entering the thread if you can't be bothered.

I don't doubt fruit flies may be loose on the ISS.

First, some were brought as part of experiements. Some may not be perfectly contained. Obviously they can get out.

Second those little boogers easily get into food. Astronauts occasionally get treats like bananas (also a fruit fly favorite), and what's likely to hitch a ride? (I doubt everything is perfectly quarantined. And some foods they're inside the peel. I'd also hate to say it, but it's likely anyone who has had enough fruit may have eaten a few of their maggots too and are none the wiser.) And they don't need much to survive on. Whatever crumbs or droplets they could find may keep them going for days on end. Just like on Earth they probably find their way in and out of the trash containers, refridgerator, and any other food stores.

Not the worst pest, since they don't bite people and they're only really interested in sweet stuff. Yet they can be pesty, they seem to have a nature of trying to explore a large area of their environment despite having a brain which only amounts to a few nerve cells. If I get them buzzing my face from having just one apple in my room for a day, certainly the ISS will have them in some of their camera shots.

Awesome! There is some kind of Bug loose in there! With all the experiments they do, I'm not surprised but that's not something I ever thought of before! Unless that's CGI and a really good hoax, it's a live insect.

They don't seem to have all the bugs out of the ISS yet when this was made. From all the problems they have had up there, I doubt if they will ever get all the bugs out of that place.

Explosive decompression would do it.

Not the ideal way to do it. But it certainly would remove and kill any insects there.

Kind of gives a whole new meaning to "Shoo Fly"...

Oh I already have the answer. Those are reflections of light. I do it with my watch all the time to play with my cats.

The doughnuts are 'optical illusions.'
They are out of focus debris - the closer they are to the camera, the bigger they are.

But the bug video - really looks like a critter aboard the ISS...that or a CG edit. Highly doubt the CG edit...what moron would take the time to put in space bugs like that?

S&F

Don't feed the trolls...

Some "space critters" on the ISS are really big... And they scares....

Alien Activity onboard the ISS



None official comment from NASA on this event...!

Thank you for your reply regarding the doughnut ufo videos, I thought someone on here would guide me the way to the answer

Would be interesting if any official explanation about these insect like creatures has been released yet? Perhaps Phage and his crew could help with this one?

It looks like dust to me .

Not saying this is right, but I'm sure there is the possibility insects found their way into the iss and have survived this whole time? Juuuuuuuust a "out-there" suggestion.

WTF is that! looks like a giant stealth spectral space lizard!

Interesting, although there is more than 'orbs' inside that ISS crawling around on the first video.

I don't know what these things are.

A close-up of 'something' floating past astronauts during a space walk, look from 06.10 on the video ...

Mysterons!

We need Captain Scarlet!

It is a space firefly but in outer space the fireflies or lightning bug cannot light up for some reason.

Looks like an experiment got loose up there. It's probably insects.

But there's not gravity so that would make flying interesting for them.

Though when I was on the London underground, there was a bluebottle sized fly on the carriage, and the freakiest thing was ... it could hover while the carriage was moving!!! I've never seen a fly do that before.
