The cosmos primary is NASA/JPL's "Orion: Dust and Death" — an annotated
visualization with lower-third captions ("DUST FILAMENT", "BLUE BUBBLE", …)
burned in throughout, so trimming can't avoid them (only ~4s of our window is
caption-free). The candidate-pool doc wrongly called it text-free.
- build_pool_manifest.decaption_cosmos(): crops the cosmos base/master to the
top 66% of frame height (16:9 preserved, center-x, ~1.5x tighter framing),
re-fit to 1920x1080 — the recorded, reproducible form of the fix (media is
gitignored). Applied in place; re-ran generate_media() so the cosmos-orbit /
abyss-cosmos transitions use the cropped base.
- docs/content-candidate-pool.md: correct the "text-free" note; document the crop.
269 passed, 2 skipped. De-caption verified by-eye on both caption moments;
final look to be confirmed by the operator.
