Read **Raw Observation** for the source result and **Working Assessment** for the present conclusion. The later **Amendment Record** preserves how additional windows tested that conclusion without forcing readers to reconstruct the current answer from chronology.
At [25.210s](/?open=Release_4%2FDOD_111830151.mp4&t=25.210&preset=normal&zoom=1.697&panX=-390.4&panY=-414.6&contrast=1.15&brightness=1), a compact bright rounded feature appears in the **upper-left region of the tracked silhouette**, immediately inside the left vertical tracking bar. The submitted hypothesis is that the larger form is a deployment platform for floating scout orbs and that this upper-left feature is an orb at or near a transfer/release interface. The lower layered region remains relevant as possible platform structure, field/sensor morphology, payload, or balloon-like material, but it is not the sphere location being proposed here.
This is a useful frame-level question, but the still cannot establish physical separation by itself. The test therefore asks three narrower questions:
1. Is the rounded bright feature present in the raw source? 2. Does its apparent gap from the upper mass persist in adjacent frames? 3. Does it survive a fixed native Fiji recipe and a small processing sensitivity change?
