ORBITAL: A Mission-Style Video Player with Chapter Progress

ORBITAL treats the player as a flight log laid over the film. Chapter marks stay fixed on the tape, and the disc at the play-head changes to the mark of the chapter you are in, so progress reads as a place in the mission rather than a plain bar.

When said film is paused, you can see whether it was/or wasn't bookmarked. One red line shows what has already been watched. The rest of the chrome is paper on ink, quiet enough to sit on someone else’s site. It plays Apollo 14 from Mux, and keyboard, captions, reduced motion, and the player’s own width all stay in place.
