I have a couple of questions that I'm sure someone knows the answers to.
First, doesn't the shuttle actually orbit backwards to prevent debris from impacting the windows?
If so, isn't it possible that the object we're seeing is a satellite or similar object in a fixed orbit so it appears to be approaching the shuttle?
Next, did anyone else see an object appear near the horizen(sp?), just right of center at about 4 minutes into the film?

nasa is super careful not to fly the shuttle close to any kind of object that might impact it or even come close.

If so, what possibilities does that raise?
