    But the image of bigfoot is reversed from the original….  I smell a fake here.

  • David Pescovitz

    Forget Blobsquatches! Now we have Fogsquatches!

  • Chuck

    That’s actually one of the soldiers in the new war for solar power.  Solar observation programs will discover more as time goes by (provided the Pentagon doesn’t crack down).

  • geekcalif

    That IS Big Foot on the sun.  I’m convinced of it. And he must be at least, what, 30 or 40 feet tall in the photo.  Thus taking up most of the sun’s surface.

    Has the sun been hanging out with these oddballs? http://bigfooting.aquasmack.com/

    Definitely reversed image. Fake!  I believed for a moment, but … damn fraudsters!

  • Finnagain

    I dunno. That looks an awful lot like Elvis to me.

  • Fabio Moraes

    Sunsquatch!

  • Max

    Hmm, the shadows are wrong. Fake.

  • travtastic

    Yeah, I don’t know about that. Saw a few pixels in there.

  • ill lich

    See?!  And you guys said  Sasquatch wasn’t real.

  • Felton / Moderator

    It’s obviously Jesus…wearing a parka.

  • erueti

    clearly what we are looking at is Voltaires Micromegas  not bigfoot at all :)

  • LuisDanielCarbia

    Not a Sasquatch, but a Wendigo… walking the winds between the stars… (well, this time just arrived to one)
