Between 1949 and 1958, an important photographic survey of the night sky was carried out at Palomar Observatory (USA). Among the shots, one series in particular has caught the researchers’ attention for some time. Taken on April 12, 1950. Long before Earthlings sent the craft into space. However, these images show nine points of light that seem to appear and disappear. subordinate transient phenomenaAs astronomers call them.
Airplanes, meteors, fast radio bursts, nuclear tests. Lots of tracks Explored by Stockholm University Scholars (Sweden) to explain the phenomenon. Including contamination of the photographic plates themselves. But nothing seems alike.
The researchers Now point out that the reflection of sunlight off objects in geosynchronous orbit can be the correct explanation. So we will have evidence of some passing through our solar system strange craft? Nothing less confident. They could just be astronomical phenomena that are not yet known. The scientists now plan to check other snapshots taken at this time if these bright spots appear as well.
