Hundreds of anomalous objects photographed near the sun since 2001 have captured the attention of UFO enthusiasts. These objects are reported to have been photographed by the Solar and Heliospheric Observatory (SOHO). SOHO is a NASA spacecraft that monitors the sun's activity. The observatory is located 1 million miles away from Earth. UFO investigators claim that the saucer shaped craft were moving in a manner that suggested intelligent control, and additionally, they believe that the images are proof of alien life. BBC reports that NASA originally dismissed the images as comets, asteroids, or the result of a camera fault. NASA now refuses to make further comment on the objects.

Nothing personal, but a lot of their data is open to the public ( in terms of GIFs, and so forth). If someone actually had time, they could prove these are something other than x-rays or cosmic particel hits or planets or whatever.

I say it's funnystuff- i.e. too many beers and too close to a computer amounting to a wrongful application of electrons.

Isn't it a bit big to be a spacecraft? If it was distant it would be impossibly big, and if it wasn't close enough to get a detailed picture of, it would be too dim to see even with most of the suns light blocked out.

Well obviously the photo is from mid-1980s and shows that Klingon ship the Star Trek crew used to fly around the sun and back through time!

Any info about these two photos?

No doubt those are fascinating images. While I've seen UFOs in photos/videos near and above the moon (at least one UFO with flashing "acknowledging" signals from a crater and near the crater) seeing "UFO" images near the sun do not surprise me. Even one image of a UFO above Mars, the photo taken from the surface. But I haven't seen any UFO images near any other planet nor on the way by any of our satellites.

As far as NASA, who cares if they don't say anything logical about such images. They don't want to acknowledge the obvious which we've seen left and right.

not to ruin the party, but isn't that an inner planet or a bright star being with overexposure? it's so bright that it ends up appearing bigger than a point and showing a line.

You are right that it would be big. But who knows what 'impossibly big' really is. I wonder though, how big they would be. It is kind of hard to imagine what the size of those objects would be, if they were alien crafts.

I am open to the possibility of something in the way of 'exotic' occuring ufos. However, it's like anything else where opinions and rumor have to be dealt with.

In this instance, I would just say that I'm very uncertain about the images from "T. Ms."

For example, space telescopes have some sort of cover, which can be closed and re-opened. Perhaps, if a solar telescope performs that task, there might be some re-adjustment to the instruments upon re-opening the cover. That may lead to glitches in the first images.

X-rays or cosmic particles might bounce around inside, giving a host of anomalous pixel data.

Anyway, from what I can tell, without having time to go through a lot of checking, access to older data is done by e-mailing the science team at SOHO. I did see some summary data for certain dates and certain times. But, only a very little.

So, here are two GIFs from 1999, September 22 ( re:"T.Ms."). What they show is an example of a normal LASCO-C3 image with the occulter. And, another which is missing data. The occulter's dimensions and appearance can be compared with the one provided by "T Ms." It would seem to me that apparently-

1. The "T. Ms." image for 1999, September 22 shows something going on inside the telescope, affecting the appearance from the near side surface-view of the occulter arm- i.e. a cosmic ray, possibly. The occulter region seems filled with hot pixels.

2. Same as above, except a possible software glitch after re-opening a closed telescope cover, leading to a false image.

3. A photoshop altered image.

Lastly, what are the odds of a ufo, of unexplainable origin, getting between a satellite and the Sun? I just have to ask that question, just like anyone trying to rule out various possibilities. And, this is all just speculation on my part, since I'm not e-mailing their science team.

Again, a video to make my point about overexposure bringing those lines. Pay attention to the planet at the beginning and later that insane comet that was in the southern hemisphere in early 2007.

This is no UFO.
