This is interesting...

It kind of looks like it powers up and motors away...

It appears to be somewhat stationary as the ISS orbits away from it...could those be spherules of leaked liquid oxygen from the docking process?

When it starts to fade away, the last sphere brightens. I am not sure hot to explain this one. I think we need a peggy photo analyst to check this one out. ;)
It kinda reminds me of these...

This has a very good presentation from Stanton Friedman at 16:35 of the video.

seen most of these films, but i need time to study this one, maybe in the weekend.
Could be water, but that would have frozen instantly into tiny crystals, hmmm..
Good to see you back Cosmo ;D
ETA: L.E. could have been, but i suspect liquid O vapourises into gas, unless theres no heat to aid the expansion process, we know you can boil water in a vacuum very easily, but the intense cold of space freezes it instead.
This leads me to another conundrum involving water, but that's another thread, LOL

Thanks Luke. That interview with Stanton I added to that post has some very interesting comments about magnetoaerodynamics and fusion.
Cosmo
OK i'll go take a peek :D
Thanks!
PS trying to unstretch the old avatar, LOL :-[
WOW COSMO in the photo with 3 shots the bottom 2 look like Klingon BIRDofPREYs. But seriously they are some really cool photos and very odd looking ??? I wonder how big they are they, must be huge?
Good question Jammer, i haven't seen all of this yet, but there are plenty of past examples of super massive ships.
In space, you can build ships as big as you want, in fact the bigger the better since they will have intrinsic 'gravity' so you wont lose screws when doing repairs, and being so big, they could survive micrometeors & such. OK a few decks wiped out, but that would only mean 2% of the ship & crew. Think big :)
ETA;The first film looks more like 'critters', and the second one looks like a dead raven hanging in a tree at night, but that's just my Edgar Allen Poe side thinking....

Hi jammer,
There are claims that those photos are fake.
I keep in mind what evidence we do have for a secret space fleet.
Also, we must not forget Stanton's very successful work on atomic rockets.
An entire family of nuclear rockets were successfully ground-tested during the NERVA (Nuclear Engines for Rocket Vehicle Applications) program. Most of the work involved in these multimillion-dollar-a-year programs was classified and conducted by industrial contractors in conjunction with national laboratories under the direction of NASA, the Air Force, and/or the old Atomic Energy Commission. All of the above systems utilize nuclear fission of the uranium-235 nucleus to produce huge amounts of heat by the conversion of a small amount of mass into a large amount of energy. Millions of times more energy per pound can be produced in this way than by burning rocket fuel.

I do not think our military would have hesitated to use that technology in space, when it was perfected. It would make sense to keep their use secret due to public concerns about radiation and the militarization of space.
Nuclear rockets in space? Maybe...

Looks like part of a solar panel to me. Just a trick of the light. You can make out it's shadow easy enough and also see it on the station on part of the shadow. Nothing there to convince me it would be anything more.
