...the one on the montage where it appears to be a thermal image shot down a corridor and something moves from right to left at the bottom of the shot at the end of the corridor.
If it's the one I think you mean, then it's an interesting one on the face of it, and also because several parties at that location, separated and unbeknownst to one another, saw the same thing with their unaided eyes. In all cases, it was described as a pair of legs walking. This is what I'd call a two-way confirmation: The same sighting caught by different pairs of eyes and a camera. To me, it seems very unlikely that it could be caused by something trivial, such as misinterpreting an ambiguous stimulus because of suggestion. I'd have to lean toward the proposition that the crew members saw the same thing and that what they saw is right there on the videotape, and it's something nobody quite understands yet in scientific terms.
To me, that's not a statement of belief or doubt or anything personal. It's just acknowledging the facts and reasoning out which explanations fit the evidence and which ones don't. I wish everyone would do that before saying things like
there's no proof of ghosts or
I haven't seen anything convincing or whatnot. I want to ask any such person: do you acknowledge the observations we're talking about now, and if so, then what can be made of it? I mean apart from belief or nonbelief or any of that personal bias, which is really irrelevant. What are the facts, and what explanations fit them and don't fit them?
I wonder if such a consideration of the evidence can change anyone's mind!
PS: It certainly changed mine. I didn't always hold my current perspective.
