Jul 26, 2016 at 14:51 | comment | added | Brandon Dube | @scottbb my answer is general. Here, it is probably the stabilizing fins of the rocket. | |

Jul 25, 2016 at 14:22 | comment | added | Brandon Dube | @NickT There's nothing that says the apertures causing the diffraction pattern cannot be the sun, its geocorona, or the earth's atmosphere. | |
