SpaceX launch creates glowing 'space jellyfish' across the sky
Original: SpaceX launch creates a glowing ‘space jellyfish’ across the sky
A SpaceX rocket launch has produced a striking 'space jellyfish' effect, with a glowing plume of exhaust expanding across the sky shortly after liftoff. The phenomenon occurs when rocket exhaust is illuminated by the sun at high altitude while the ground remains dark, creating a bright, expanding cloud visible to observers over a wide area.
Why now: Dramatic and unusual visuals from a rocket launch are drawing widespread public attention.
