- The video you are refering to was shown on Hard Copy and Larry King
- (I believe). I've seen this video and the objects in question are
- simply ice. These objects change direction because one of the
- manuevering jets on the shuttle was fired (this can be seen in the
- video as a flash right before everything changes direction).
- There is nothing in the video that suggests to me that it is an ETI
- spaceship.
