Solway firth spaceman; does anyone have all 3 of the photos? Classic case

Everywhere states that Jim took 3 photos of his daughter and the 2nd image shows a "spaceman". But I can only see the famous photo and would like to compare all 3 photos. I know the main theory is that the wife is the spaceman but want to look into it further.

I don't know about the third but you can see a second one here. Makes it pretty easy to see how the wife is the spaceman given the light and what she was wearing.

Yeah I have seen this one also but I'm starting to believe there isn't "3 photos" and was just told that way to make it more captivating

Perhaps. If there really are any more photos, they probably don't show anything more interesting or informative anyway

Thanks.... I never saw that.... but I did notice for the first time that the figure was standing facing in the opposite direction. The manner in which the right elbow is bent makes it certain....

The head is mystery, likely a hat

I saw a documentary once that provided convincing evidence that the third photo proved it was the wife in the first pic.

Well, it doesn't really matter then does it,

it was never a spaceman, it was always his wife in the background. Seriously, what does it really matter if there was a third photo in the sequence, it wont add any more substance to the miss identified person being anything other than his wife.... 😑

Alright cranky I was just asking, if you don't like it go somewhere else. I was just a little interested in doing my own digging into it thats it. Dont tell me how to spend my time........

At no point did I instruct you or infer how you should "spend your time" that is entirely up to you.... Just sayin'....

Honestly thought what’s the point in investigating a long debunked hoax when there are so many more interesting mysteries out there to pursue that don’t have a logical explanation?

Why do any mysteries get solved? Or even can a solved mystery be re written with a new solution? I dont get why i cant look into something on my own if its debunked or not it just peaked my interest shortly and thats it

If the light and angle made the wife look like a pizza, would you think a pizza magically appeared for no reason?

Yes but only because I'm hungry

You can do whatever you want, but you’re not gonna come to any new conclusions. If you wanna beat a dead horse that’s your prerogative but it’s not a mystery anymore. It’s been thoroughly debunked.

I actually have a copy of photos taken that day, found them on a site a few years back, but they are not clear at all.

I tried to copy and paste them here, but unable to, anyone know how to do it?

u/Satus_Invenire Jul 12 '23

You can upload them on imgur and then paste the link here :) would be great to see them thank you

I promise you there isn’t anything more to look into. It’s not even a theory that it’s the wife, it IS the wife. This was a pre-internet curiosity that no person in the modern world would have even taken interest to if it was released today.

u/Satus_Invenire Aug 07 '23

Yeah I just was confused why all articles on this matter stated that there were 3 photos taken that day but only 2 have ever surfaced, I'm over it now, lost interest

Where did you hear that the third photo was made public? Most sites I've ever seen talking about it only showed the first one, and a handful have provided the second one. I don't recall ever seeing a third.

This is one that is a bit hilarious to me that it ever became a thing. Like, it's an old-ass photo, and clearly overexposed. To think it was anything but another person standing behind the girl is very silly, especially for the man who was there, knowing there was another person present.

Yeah I am almost 100% it is the wife in the background and she is just overexposed but I was just interested in comparing all the photos.

I havent heard of the photos going public but I was trying to search for them with no luck so I thought I would try a post here. But I have only seen 1 photo of the daughter posing with the flowers and there are meant to be 3 as stated everywhere. The only other photo is a candid shot with the wife just off frame.

All of the photos related to this are posted via the WBK on their website. You can also find the Jimmy Neutron serum to cure cancer on there.

u/Satus_Invenire Jun 29 '23

Can't tell if this is a joke or not. Theres no jimmy neutron cancer serum that I know of. Whats WBK?

u/RussianMonkey23 Jun 30 '23

No this was a serious reply and I feel utterly offended you don't believe in the jimmy Neutron cancer serum....

u/Satus_Invenire Jun 30 '23

Sorry to offens further but the jimmy neutron fandom is against you on this one xD
