The first of three Release 04 STS-80 image files. It shows a small bright feature near the spacecraft and Earth limb. The image establishes that NASA released the frame in this UAP tranche; without range, sequence timing, camera context, or a technical assessment, it cannot establish the object's size, distance, motion, or identity.
