There was a thread on this yesterday. Several of us notice it in the video and one freeper snagged a clip and posted a link to it. Now all of the news channels are showing the same video. On the previous thread another freeper claims it is a reflection of the aperature in a Sony video camera and he posted a pic of the aperature in question. Not sure which it is, but it may not be the shuttle...or it may indeed be the shuttle.

Shuttle Pic--SIDE VIEW!

"A product of dubious internet interpretation spurred on by a neophyte crowd who has never 'stopped down' or focused a real lens, changed a roll of film or performed any type of real photography ..."

And you can quote me.

Yeah, thanks for giving me that link...hard to believe, but I haven't been watching that much coverage of the tragedy, and I just happened to catch that 'sideways' video for the first time an hour ago. It struck me as intruiging, as many others found it, but reading the thread convinced me it's just lens distortion. Carry on.
