Usually, stabilization goes over all video frames and tries to find image transformations (rotation + translation + zoom) that make a frame match as closely as possible with the previous frame. That's an oversimplified explanation, but from a user point-of-view, these tools are mature enough to be applied with just a few clicks.

This video is definitely the result of that, as, whoever did it, didn't even bother to insert a cut when the feed switches between left side and right side camera, thus making the stabilization spazz out momentarily.

Where do you see the camera switch side? The fin on which the camera is mounted moves every now and then, but I think we only ever see the perspective of one camera.

I knew it was spinning, but not that much. Can't wait to hear the final report on what happened there.

Reaction control thrusters didn't work. Blame it all on the Everyday Astronaut.

Why would we blame that on him?

He suggested using hot gas thrusters on the ship which seem to have failed.
