bottom to middle new asteriod?

  • hightower73 by hightower73

    on the bottom quarter there is a bright light that travels quite fast up the edge of the set, on pic 3 it seems to grow a tail.

    is this an asteriod or comet?

    this one wasnt flagged as being known about.

    The object you are seeing in frames 1 and 2 is a hot-pixel. It then moves down and to the right in frame 3 (compare 1 and 3 and you should see it a bit lower and to the right from where it is in frame 3). In frame 4, if you follow the common artifact movement patern, it would move left and out of the frame, thus not being in frame 4.

    The object you are seeing with a tail in frame 3 is part of the lens flare artifact. It too is moving to the right, so you are seeing a part that is out-of-frame in frames 1, 2 and 4.
