Key moments
- 0:00 The sensor tracks an area of contrast, zooming out from 0:05 to keep it in view (AARO). The mission report, D107, describes it as “look[ing] like a white round orbit… moving as fast as 500 miles per hour.”
- 1:43 A “focus box” appears; the sensor follows the object until it exits the bottom of the frame (AARO).
- 2:29 An auto-tracking reticle fails to lock on, and the object leaves the frame to the right (AARO).
- 3:23 Zoomed out, the sensor finds the object again, now much smaller, and keeps panning to follow it (AARO).
- 4:30 Zoomed in, the object crosses the frame and exits at the top (AARO).
