Narrative
After examining this frame by frame, the Orb was exhibiting some playful behavior and you can see it turning back into a perfect round and back into doing it's light show. You could contest that it's showing reflective surfaces from time to time, however it is actually beaming light from itself. submitted by /u/XprtCop
