Overexposure re Mothership
appearing on June 5, 2003

This morning at approx. 5:47 CDT [Jun 5], I watched the Sun rise here in eastern Missouri. There was a thin haze or cloud cover that allowed the Sun to shine through, but not very brightly. I was able to view the entire disk of the Sun with my 8x binocs. I saw three very dark spots, two horizontally opposed at about the 7-8 o´clock position and another slightly smaller dot at about the 1-2 o´clock position. These were very small, yet perfectly round, and completly black. What the hell were they?

This black spot is nothing new, other people have been capturing it since before: this one is from 2002:
http://www.sciforums.com/showthread.php?threadid=11373 I also have seen photos of the sun having that black spot from years ago. I have to say that I disagree with the mothership statement. Its just an Effect made by the camera lens. http://www.webzar.com/webcam/index.shtml explains the black spot on the sun phenomenon. [Quote from that site "At first, the displayed image will show the sun with a black spot in its middle. Next, the sun will be get lost within a dark background. The camera recovers about three minutes after the sun slips below the horizon." Note: no black background has been reported recently, but the Element of Doubt may be in effect.]
