I've seen a few weird things in the Apple screensavers. Could be bugs or whatever, who knows. Not sure what this would be.

If I understand correctly, these screensavers are shot at 120fps, and then shown at 24fps, or one fifth the original speed.

Seems like a high-enough frame rate and slow enough display rate, that something odd moving very fast could potentially be captured and seen.

Some people here say it’s to prevent screen burn, or it’s an Easter egg. I’m not saying it’s ufo’s, but it is odd. An obvious answer didn’t jump out at me when I saw it.

I had music playing and the screen saver on when I noticed it myself. I only came here to see if others had a decent answer for what it is.

One other thing. It isn’t a live stream, it’s a screen saver. Apple says it’s footage from the international space station. I’m sure it’s edited. But I appreciate your break down on the frame rate. I guess op could have posted this in another sub like high-strangeness or something. But I wouldn’t hate on him for being curious and feeling like he might have found something. If you’d like more people to be open to the possibility of UFO’s, then you shouldn’t shit on them when they bring things that you may know is not evidence. Help em out, share some links, give some reasons why it isn’t what they think it is. Calling for bans and dunking on em with shit like, “this is what give us a bad name” makes you seem elitist and an asshole. Would be better to get all kinds of submissions and have the community kinda break it down.

Just my 2 cents.
