UFO - NASA Cover Up?

Cosmic Conspiracies recently obtained this photo which was taken from a still from the STS106 Mission. Jeff Challender who has been viewing NASA footage for many years managed to capture this amazing image of a cigar-shaped object passing near the Space Shuttle Atlantis on its latest mission. He states 'On the evening (US TIME) of 10 September, Atlantis proceeded to dock with the new station. During this operation, several views of the Shuttle's approach were provided by a black and white video camera mounted on the Russian built Zarya (Sunrise) module, also known as the FGB (Functional Cargo Block). During one video sequence from Zarya, Atlantis could be seen just a few feet away from final docking. As the video continued, an anomalous cigar shaped object could also be seen in the field of view.

This object appeared to be near the Shuttle, but in space, distance is difficult to guage with the eye. After being in view for only about 12 seconds, the video feed was abruptly cut off. What the object actually was, is hard to say'.

Jeff has never seen a "cigar-like" object on NASA TV before. The object in question was certainly NOT ice or debris. It held stationary for the entire time it was visible, and it's appearance never changed.

One interesting note is that the "cigar" was very carefully edited out of all subsequent Flight Day Highlights broadcasts, and was never mentioned by the narrator.
