Summary: a compilation of all the greatest NASA and RSA footage
Review: Cheese aplenty with low budge production, but the footage basically speaks for itself. At times the picture quality can be horribly low due to camera quality, but even the bad ones are pretty shocking. This is a great compilation and easy to believe that it is the favorite among astronauts. Some of the shots you may have seen on Tv's UFO Files or something, but most of them were new to me. Scene after scene of incredible footage from the Russian Space Agency's MIR and NASA missions. Not to mention a little scary.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Nasa UFO's
Review: Definitely a low budget production which has been transferred straight from the video release is one of the worst transfers I've come across on dvd so far. Considering it was made in 2000, you would think the transfer would be decent, obviously not. When Martin Stubbs is being interviewed, the colors dont look right and very grainy picture. Cheap cameras have been used to film this documentary. Some of the nasa clips downloaded by Martin to video via satellite who has recorded every mission since the early nineties is of low quality. Dont expect the original nasa footage, this is vhs quality that is 2nd or 3rd generation copy. Besides all the technical issues, this is one of the most interesting ufo documentaries of all time, there is a lot of proof here that something strange and unusual is going on in orbit and Nasa dont want us to know. Running time 90 minutes, no extras, plain menu screen, audio pcm stereo.

Disc 3/5
Transfer 1/5
Audio 3/5
Extras 0/5

Summary: Goes a little too far in its analysis
Review: First off the title of this video is misleading, these transmissions are not secret, and as the guy who discovered the anomalies says, they can be picked up by anyone with a satellite dish.

Second, there is nothing in this video to hint at or suggest that the objects are alien or otherworldy, although the program might lead you to that conclusion. In fact, there is nothing to even suggest that these phenomenon are anything more than dust, debris, ice, rock, satellites, etc. floating around in earth's orbit. These objects do not deviate from a path, nor move in zig-zags. There is one scene where they erroneously claim an object moves, but they blatantly ignore the fact that the camera is moving not the object!

I give this video decent marks for some interesting NASA footage displaying some anomolous objects whizzing by. But I subtract points for them trying to make this into a conspiracy video displaying proof of a cover-up when in fact there is zero evidence that the objects in their footage are anything substantial.

I would pass on this one, as there are much better videos out there on UFO's, with much better footage.

Summary: NASA did NOT DENIE this was real....
Review: For people with a little bit of a trained eye for common natural events, when light seems to "bounce of surfaces and objects" it seems to me that the sun or another source of light (maybe the moon) should be present to build on this theory. However, the simple fact is some of these things have shadows on clouds and eachother...

And during a live recording, Houston asks the austronaut: what rae all those swimming "things" in the forground. Now when the camera closes in, you will see for yourself, that this reflection theory simply does not aply to any of the hard evidence.

For instance, the movie where the "icecristals" suddenly come to a direct stop behind MIR space station and then come up on a complete other side, kind of surprises me.

And offcourse the ending scene of the movie... I am still waiting for NASA to respond on my question wether the footage is real, although if I have to believe the video, it is. Many scientists have just said that it has to be what it is. And for those who think of this as a governmental cover up, it's not, they just did not know.

But as much a sceptic as I am, I need to know. However the evidence I've seen is almost sufficient to make me believe.

For people who don't like changes in their illusional comfromtable world I recommend to go with the real sceptists like the previous reaction on this footage.

For the open minded and believers in for instance stringtheory it's maybe only one more piece of the puzzle which our universe appears to be...

Summary: Technically poor, but good content
Review: I would say this wasn't the best "production", but hey, who orders stuff like this to be "entertained?" The footage is a bit long winded in some parts during the interview, but the space footage is REALLY good in my opinion. How can anyone explain "shooting stars" turning at right angles instantaneously?
There's more than that though. It's very interesting to hear the astronauts or NASA officials describing what they are seeing and then sorta dropping off because they don't know what to say to describe what they are seeing. Now that's entertaining!:)

If you are seeking truth, I believe there is some in this DVD. But, as with all information, take the good and leave the bad.

Summary: Monumental Evidence for the History Books..
Review: the final 15-20 minutes of Raw Nasa footage is awesome and mind-boggling, this footage really opens your mind, even hard-core skeptics will easily be convinced..This one for the history books folks..Buy it and you'll watch the spectacular end over and over, with family and friends, for many years to come..

Summary: This DVD is PURE CRAP, don't waste your money
Review: This has to be the absolute rock-bottom lame 'UFO' video. The author has recorded a bunch of publicly-available footage from NASA Select, NASA's satellite channel (there's nothing 'secret' about any of it, for starters) and then every little glint of sunlight off a metal surface or ice crystal that floats by, this nut case presents as some kind of 'evidence' of extraterrestrial intelligence and a NASA coverup. Well I used to work at NASA and indeed there are things they cover up, but none of the crapola on this DVD is worth your time or money. It includes some long interview sequences with a Canadian back-country hick that I presume is the author of this awful DVD, but he is so dumb that he doesn't even get the name of his own country's astronaut right (he says she's 'Elizabeth Bondar', but ROBERTA Bondar is a personal friend of mine and Canada's token astronaut).

There's not one single bit of evidence on this DVD to back up the claim made by the author ("From Space Shuttle cameras comes starling evidence that we are not alone"), it is all sprung from his imagination and glints of light off of reflecting surfaces. Nothing changes direction, there is zero evidence of anything, this DVD is just a bad joke. Save your money folks, or at least spend it on something better like Philip Corso's book if you are interested in extraterrestrial intelligence, which by the way I believe in. This DVD will do nothing for you.
