The attention of scientists from all over the world was attracted by a videotape published in the media, which shows how the "mysterious shadow" crosses the Earth. The video was made from the side of the Japanese meteorological satellite Himawari-8, located in the geostationary orbit at an altitude of 35791 km above the surface of our planet. Specialists quickly identified the origin of a dark spot. A five-second accelerated roller recorded a full light day on Earth. On the video, you could see how the dark planet first turned into a crescent moon, then brightly lit, - the shadow was cast by the moon. At the same time, the media hastened to attribute the origin of the shadow to the alien spaceship, and also reported that "scientists are still trying to figure out its origin". Source: Rosbalt.
