CALIFORNIA (Web Desk): A spectacular sight appeared in the sky during the launch of US aerospace company SpaceX’s CRS-35 cargo mission on the morning of October 13, when clouds of exhaust from the rocket began glowing in sunlight, creating the appearance of a giant jellyfish.
As sunlight illuminated the clouds formed by material released during the rocket’s flight, they lit up against the sky, producing a unique and captivating spectacle.
Experts explain that this phenomenon is commonly observed when a rocket is launched close to sunset. While darkness begins to fall on the ground, sunlight can still reach the exhaust clouds high in the atmosphere, causing them to glow brightly in the sky.
The unusual shape, created by the combination of rocket exhaust and natural light, offers a remarkable visual experience for observers.
The US space agency NASA also shared photographs of the beautiful phenomenon on its Instagram account, clearly showing the glowing clouds resembling a jellyfish.
