I saw this video on Fox too. If you watch the entire video you see that this is an extreme zoom and that the shape you see is some soret of video artifact - someone mentioned 'iris reflection' - but whatever it is, when the camera zoomed back out this was obvious.

Note that the shape of the "object" is what you'd expect to see when viewing the shuttle from underneath the rear AND it has the proper colors (white on top, black on the bottom). I put a short mpeg1 clip out on my website showing the entire zoom in and zoom out sequence.
