"Given the reality of the dark spots, which soon became known as "atmospheric holes" because of their appearance in the images, there is only one explanation which has endured over all these years to present. That is, the holes are due to the shadowing of the atmospheric light by an object above the atmosphere. This object simply cannot be a stony or iron meteor because the holes are very large, tens of miles in diameter. A rock of this size would provide a disastrous impact on the Earth's surface. As it turns out, water vapor is very good at absorbing the atmospheric light and thus appearing as an atmospheric hole in the images taken by the spacecraft camera." -- Louis Frank
Thanks Islander7.

Speculation is that the bubble was a shock wave as the missile flew through the upper atmosphere. Or maybe it was fuel expanding in space from the separation of the third stage. A passenger jet taking off from San Diego.

"Small Comets and Our Origins" I was just talking to my kids about that the other night. I'm a firm believer that this planet was seeded with organisms from other worlds in the distant past.

Obviously, the Big Kahuna had a bean burrito for a late-night snack. Happens every time.

Friction and deceleration. A click on the link up there may be helpful and interesting as well.
