I was watching a new NASA video shot of Rina from the International Space station when something caught my eye 40 seconds into the video:

Remember the Twilight zone episode "Terror at 10,000ft" with William Shatner? Later re-made as "Terror at 30,000 ft". How about "Terror at 225 miles"?
What's that walking around outside the ISS??
