NASA Claims Video Showing Alien On Moon Is Just Dust

The US space agency NASA has solve the mystery behind a video showing an alien walking on the surface of Earth's natural satellite that is the Moon. According to the scientists it is simply “dust, an eyelash or scratch on the negative” of the film that took the image. The video showing the alien on the moon was posted by a YouTube user. It was viewed more than two million times in less than a month.

As per Nasa scientists, the image was taken by either the Apollo 15 or 17 manned missions to the moon in 1971 and 1972, respectively.

“My best guess, is that something (dust, an eyelash, scratch on the negative) was on the film,” said a scientist.

“Remember, this was in the pre-digital days when all sorts of nasty things could happen to film,” he added.

If we believe several media reports, the video went viral because of a psychological phenomenon called Pareidolia, which is supposed to be the brain’s response to spot faces and other significant objects in random stimulus.

Few days ago, the government of Chile had released an analysis of two high quality photos that show what appear be genuine unidentified flying objects hovering over Collahuasi copper mine in the South American country.
