SpaceX launch creates glowing 'cosmic jellyfish' over Florida skies
Original: SpaceX launch’s cosmic jellyfish paints the skies over Central Florida and beyond
A SpaceX rocket launch lit up the sky over Central Florida with a glowing, jellyfish-like cloud visible from miles away. The phenomenon occurs when a rocket launches around dawn or dusk, and its exhaust plume expands in the upper atmosphere and catches sunlight. Spectators across the region and beyond shared images of the shimmering display, which has drawn wide attention to the launch.
Why now: The striking visual spectacle of the rocket plume is being widely shared and admired, driving fresh interest in the launch.
