In the fall of 1964, the international almanac of fiction and adventure “Galaxy” under the heading “Anomalous” published a selection of posts about unidentified space object (NPO) “Black Prince”.
The article also talked about how a certain amateur astronomer discovered a dark spot traveling at an incredible speed to the lunar disk, and that the mysterious object is the Fau rocket designed by the Nazis for suborbital flights.
Another hypothesis was put forward: in front of us – canned spaceship whose crew disappeared during landing on Earth during Tunguska explosion … By the way, the latest version was voiced by the famous Soviet science fiction A.P. Kazantsev. He gave the orbital “artifact” poetic name “The Black Prince”. The writer believed that the object may be a satellite of an alien ship that caused the Tunguska marvelous. ”

The “Black Prince” as well as the “Demon”
Kazantsev’s science fiction story “Explosion” was published in 1946 by the magazine “Around the World”. Subsequently, the writer in every possible way tried to justify his theory of the “Tunguska diva” and carefully watched abnormal astronomical observations, confirming his conclusions. As soon as the first information about the “dark ghost” in Earth orbit, Kazantsev right there proposed his own version of an alien odyssey.
According to the science fiction writer, he tragically died over the Siberian taiga inhabited landing module, and the spaceship itself, driven by machine guns, remained in the polar orbit of the Earth. After half a century, cybernetic the brain of another ship gave the order for self-destruction in order to avoid Earth’s contact with dangerous extraterrestrial technologies …
There were even photos allegedly taken by one of NASA spy satellites showing a strange dark object. Journalists immediately called him “Dark” for his unusual shape. knight “, and subsequently added to this romantic image the names “The Black Prince” and “The Phantom of the Darkness.” Sometimes the press flickered it’s also called “Black Demon”.

Probe or plasmoid?
After a series of newspaper reports, a mysterious object hit the field view of the Pentagon’s special Blue Book project analysis of reports of all kinds of UFOs. The warders gathered data about the orbit of the object and began their own research. After a series of investigations failed by NASA military experts go on the trail of the “Dark Knight”. The final report of the Blue Book it was claimed that amateur astronomers were most likely to observe ordinary large meteorites that occasionally cross the lunar disk.
In 1965, the famous American astrophysicist Ron Bracewell in the work “Signals of highly developed galactic civilizations” developed his early hypothesis that the “Black Prince” (which he renamed from copyright ambitions to “The Dark Knight”) is not than other than an alien automatic probe.
Similar devices, later called “Bracewell probes,” could successfully explore the galactic expanses and collect information for relaying the civilization that sent them. Afterwards Bracewell’s theory was developed and supplemented by a prominent domestic researcher of problems of contact with extraterrestrial intelligence professor L.V. Xanfomality.
At the same time, the Condon Committee, famous in ufological circles, organized and led by Colorado professor Edward Condon, considered the hypothesis of an NPO-plasmoid, but scientists did not come to a consensus on this issue. Question is even more confused after the discovery of “phantom lightnings” throwing in ionosphere clouds of negative ions. Geophysicists and meteorologists believe that it is these phenomena that ufologist astronomers have long been mistook for NGOs.
Crash in orbit
Two mysterious military accidents occurred in the 1990s NASA communications satellites. Then the Pentagon issued a statement that, perhaps we are dealing with a collision with some major object. This immediately generated rumors that the true cause the death of the satellites is their collision with the Dark Knight. well and since the probability of such events is negligible, conclusions that this NPO is still in active mode and destroys the devices that discovered it.
After repeated sounding of the Earth’s ionosphere by radiophysicists a lot of data has accumulated, among which were all kinds the “radio voice” of space. It should be noted that radio waves emit very many celestial bodies, from Jupiter and the Sun to distant radio galaxies.
Glowing brightly on the galactic “radio sky” and our planet, since 1920s shrouded in “radio smog” radio and television stations. By these the data was used by a group of astronomers who discovered that a certain an object between the Earth and the Moon intensively exchanges radio data with star epsilon Bootes. Moreover, enthusiasts of contact with another reason claim that in space radio voices it is found and the deployment of the constellation itself.
Well, inconsistencies in stellar coordinates ufologists easily explain a change in the starry sky over the past millennia (most often for some reason the figure is ten millennia).
Thus, according to contact proponents, the epsilon star clearly located in the wrong place, and its displacement indicates the native planetary system of the Dark Knight. But all further attempts clarify the actual stellar address of the dark NPO ended complete failure due to lack of real data.
Bigbyu Orbital Family
American amateur astronomer John Bigby had a rather rare area of interest – he was looking for space objects captured Earth’s gravity and become the natural satellites of our planet. In 1967, he published a note in an astronomical journal about ten orbital objects that could be remnants some large body torn by the gravity of the Earth.
The story of another member of the “knightly family” – “Ghost darkness “- began with observations of an unknown object by American astronomers J. Hammond and T. Cragg in the late 1940s – early 1950s. In 1956, their observations received independent confirmation, and on May 4, 1957, John Bigby brought them together family.
The orbits calculated by him had a curious version of the past. 18 December 1955 they all converged together that could interpret as a momentary decay of some natural satellite. The specific causes of this small disaster are unlikely someday they will become known, and here we can assume everything: from accidental meteor strike before some internal processes.
Over time, publications on all kinds of orbital NPOs caused a wave of sharp professional criticism. Primarily, astronomers cast doubt on the method of calculating the orbits of the members Bigby satellite families. Indeed, for long-term forecasts past and future celestial bodies need hundreds, not units observations!
Ultimately, several explanations of nature were proposed. Bigbyu objects. Among them were purely optical effects. atmospheric inhomogeneities, and meteorological and ionospheric phenomena, and celestial bodies seem to occasionally fly by asteroids.
When ufologists see the merger and separation of all kinds of NPOs, services ground surveillance most often record particle collisions space debris with each other, because of which their number continues to multiply and grows exponentially. Wherein small fragments are no less dangerous than large NPOs, which are often mistaken for alien ships.
Each collision causes a cloud of debris that quickly fly in all directions and in a few weeks form a kind of belt, threatening to destroy all devices, that fall into this orbital level …
“Long hands”
Unfortunately, almost all reports of NPOs are difficult to verify. For example, back in June 1965, astronaut James McDivitt was observing on board the “Gemini-4” a strange object from which “stick out long hands. “The NASA Mission Control Center immediately demanded take a picture of him, but after landing “Gemini” the picture never found.
There are many stories about NPOs observed from orbital Salyut and Mir stations. Sometimes they were mysterious orbital “dark spheres”, obscuring for a moment the light of stars, and sometimes some silver balls in the stratosphere. Especially a lot of NGOs recorded cameras of the International Space Station (ISS).

For example, one of the videos clearly shows how past the station, spinning, floats some rounded gray object indefinite sizes. In another case, an entire ISS flies past a group of objects shining under the rays of the sun. Sometimes objects disappear and reappear, and sometimes even separate and merge together.
NASA and Roscosmos experts are in a hurry in all cases disappoint enthusiasts of the hypothesis of the existence of NPOs, proving that instead of aliens, ufologists noticed the completed steps launch vehicles or antenna modules that have fallen from the ISS hull.
Today, NASA is trying in every possible way to avoid various speculations on subject of NPOs and for this periodically uploads all received videos for free access. Ufologists and amateur astronomers try not to miss this opportunity and study in detail pixel by pixel everything that can be related to alien artifacts. To their disappointment, all attempts to open new NPOs run into a ruthless verdict – a “technical error.”
Perhaps the clue to the appearance and the trace is hidden here. the disappearance of strange bodies in earth orbit?
