Any Rocket Scientists Around?

Anyone know what the objects flying past the Space X rocket before it explodes are? If you watch the video, there is an object near the bottom of the screen that appears to bounce off the rocket at the 1:09 mark. Then, at 1:12, right before the rocket explodes, there is the objects flying above the rocket. Weird.

911 was an inside job

Probably a large fastener.

It starts at the left of the screen and moves right as the rocket is exploding.

Bird maybe?

Way too fast. Unless it's a Thunderbird, which would explain the rocket blowing up.

The one at 1:12 looks like a big bird, but I didn’t see the one at 1:09. Thankfully they give us 1080p60, so go into the settings, set it to that and set the speed to .25 and you get a pretty clear picture that they look like birds.

i think there are some birds/bugs in the foreground. I could be looking at the wrong thing tho

Looks like a spark near the vent line...thats not good.

It’s near the middle-bottom on the screen. It’s smaller than the one on top. No bird could fly that fast. Compare the speed of the object to the speed of the explosion. I’m wondering I it is something weird with the camera.

Yeah, it's got to be bugs in the foreground, hence why it seems so fast. That would explain why there's a few of them.

I see the thing you are talking about, its a bird. I think its just a perspective issue. There are birds that fly by earlier in the scene for speed reference.

There are plenty of mechanical and aerospace engineers on Oppo that could probably tell you. I for one have no idea and have no interest whatsoever.

Someone mentioned it might be bugs in the foreground. That would explain the size and speed. Plus Florida where there's tons of bugs.

Steel rocket fuel can’t melt Teslas.

Things flying off due to pressure before the actual detonation?

Could be bugs. The one at 1:09 doesn’t hit anything, it goes towards and then away from it, the one at 1:12 flies over it. Sure looks like (at first glance anyway, that the second one is related to the explosion.

Kind of ironic that despite the flames and the smoke, Zuck was able to get a very clear view of his satellite being reduced from a $200 million internet hotspot to a.....well, just a hot spot.

Shit, they did their math wrong on the rocket’s displacement.

Keep in mind this is being filmed from like a mile away.
