OK, Merc, good suggestion of course! I've sent off for some more info from NASA. Let's see what they say. I don't think they'll say it's a ghost though. lol! Escaped alien?... maybe...

Yet photos like these: http://www.prairieghosts.com/ectoplasm.html fooled many people once upon a time. "Ectoplasm photos" made a name for a lot of spiritualists in the 20s and 30s. I can't figure it out. We see someone with a bunch of cotton stuffed up her nose or a newspaper photo taped to her ear; other people see ghosts. I can't MAKE myself see the cotton as "ectoplasm".

Here's a good one. The whole NASA ghost thingamabob was solved by a respondent on the "Coast to Coast AM" site.

(a guilty pleasure of mine- who knew so many alien spacecraft would closely resemble blurry birds?)

Here are the pertinent sites:
