It’s an “actual simulation” as opposed to something rendered via any number of animation software suites. I.e., it presumably simulates the physics of the orbit.
That's completely unrealistic! The banana in the wide shot is tidal locked to the earth, curve down, the other shots clearly show an entirely different banana.

But does it? With the odd shape of the banana I'd be shocked if it remained tidally locked and didn't tumble as some parts were pulled harder by earth's gravity.
*shrug* Depends on how long they run the simulation, I’d think. I’d be shocked if it stayed in a stable orbit. At the very least I’d expect it to collapse into a roughly spherical shape under its own gravity. I was assuming the fact of it being tidally locked just meant that was an initial condition of the simulation.
I could be wrong about this, of course. I’m just saying, when they say “actual simulation,” I hear “with physics,” not just a rendering of a pre-determined path.
Watching the full video, it appears the "actual simulation" is a bit of a misnomer. There's no indication this shows anything but what a big ass banana would look like in the sky from a distance equal to that of the international space station.
It's clearly fake. Earth has never been to the banana. Those shots were made in someone's garage. Everyone knows there's a reflective part on bananas and that's the so called mirror.
Considering how close the banana is, it would become tidally locked quite fast. But what's more, it would drag a huge tidal wave around the earth. Great surfing!
Particularly if you rotated the banana 180 degrees along its Z-axis so that the curvature allowed it to stay roughly the same distance from the surface at more points. You'd end up like that water planet from "Interstellar"

Thankfully, it's an actual simulation. I'm sick of all those imaginary simulations.

If this simulation is to be believed, it looks pretty messy.

In the first half, yes. Not in the 'from earths perspective' shot, though.

Megamastermetamememaker
Depends on how long it is orbiting and what mass distribution the banana has. If everything is banana, it reduces to a simple geometric problem.

It's tumbling in the ground view, but stable in the orbital graphic. I think we're being had on this one. Not sure which to trust.
