the kicker? it happened when there wasn't enough sun to run the solar panels, so it was probably relatively cold.

before this the best you could guess as a civilian was a military drone (half the size of a jet, big hot jet engine on the back top)

also it means that 32" reflective mylar is too small for radar homing or they would have used a sparrow, tho there's a chance they didn't because they want to keep it's resolution secret. but even that gives something away
