Here's a NASA video from space shuttle mission STS-51A. This video was recorded on a space shuttle mission that launched 8 November 1984. A reflective orb appears for about three seconds during an extended scene of an astronaut EVA to a satellite.


NASA STS-51A@10:36 to 10:38
The nose of the space shuttle is reflected in the satellite, and the astronaut is in the shadow of the space shuttle. The tip of the shuttle bay robotic arm is parked at lower right. The orb first appears in frame one and reflects the black of space with small highlights. As the orb descends the highlights grow in size. In frame two the orb reflects the sun above, and the satellite is reflected on the lower left. When the orb lines up with the horizon it reflects the sun above and the clouds below in frame three. Then the orb skirts the horizon to the right, which is non ballistic motion, but consistent with antigravity repelled by the satellite and the space shuttle. At one point in frame four the reflective surface appears to pop like a bubble. But then the reflective bubble reforms again in frame five on its way to exiting the frame to the right. How can we explain this? Is this a natural phenomenon or an interstellar tourist? Three seconds isn’t much to go on.
