And by "rubbish", do you mean the period anchor they lifted off the seabed?I'd rather watch that than an auto-da-fé on this site. Looks like Los Inquisidores are busy preparing the sanbenito and capirote. |

Blimey, when I criticised modern "documentary" techniques, I wasn't expecting some sort of Spanish Inquisition... |

Meaningless. They weren't the NRO. quote: Probably no other result of the MA-9 mission excited more interest than Cooper's claim to have seen from orbit objects on the ground as small as trucks and houses.
Useless without the ability to geolocate. quote: AS09 images were captured in March 1969 during Apollo 9 when Cooper was still with NASA...
So are you going to base your assertion from a few photos from one flight. quote: ...he likely still had contacts within NASA during Skylab in 1973-1974.
No, he was out of NASA and a civilian. |

I still agree with Jim Oberg's take on all this; as stated in his comment posted on the Deadline piece. |

The fact that this got renewed reflects poorly on the intellect of the American TV viewers. |
