Space Tether video

I find this video very interesting.

Based on some web searches I guess it's possible that there's some video artifacts going on here given the shape of some of the objects seen here, kindof like maybe seeing reflections of stuff in your own eye sometimes when looking in a microscope, but I was engrossed when I saw this. Note how many of the objects appear to move behind the severed tether in the video. Here's an in-depth video analysis.

It's incredible footage and too easily dismissed with a shrug of the shoulders in my opinion. Very cool stuff. Way more interesting than a lot of stuff that's treated seriously. Doesn't it remind you of looking at pond water under a microscope?
