This photo has been circulating on the internet, allegedly from an anonymous source. It was made by a special effects group for use in a web-based effects class. It has also been used in various other situations. There is no evidence that it is real, but it is a very good job of special effects artistry.

A video has been made of the moon that shows a ‘fastwalker’ or shadow racing across its surface. This is just one of thousands of unexplained lunar phenomena that have been observed over the years, but it is one of the best documented and most provocative.

It seems most likely that the controversial GOES-8 photograph that I put on the website last week, and that was the object of a half-hour discussion on Dreamland on January 24, is a picture of the moon. This is not entirely certain, but the image appears like other images that the satellite has taken of the moon, with the difference that there is some sort of interference pattern around the questioned image.
However, a GOES-10 photo has now been found that shows an object that is most definitely NOT the moon. But its appearance is ambiguous. It could be some sort of an artifact of signal interference, although this does not seem very likely. The artifact appears in the lower right quadrant of the photo.

These photos were taken by the GOES 8 satellite of an unknown object claimed to be a shadow of the moon. However, the so-called shadow isn’t being cast on anything, so it is hard to conclude that it is anything but an object. The photos were analyzed by Ross Hunt Productions, a prominent video image analysis and production company in business for over 40 years. The object reveals a slight triangular shape behind it that some have thought might indicate that it is a crude digital hoax. However, analysis indicates that this material cannot easily be explained.
The photos were taken in November of 1999.
