"Mysterious Object Caught on Video: Unraveling a Wild Sky Sight"

TL;DR Summary
Mysterious sightings of a bright light emitting circular smoke in the sky on March 25 were actually a batch of Starlink satellites launched by SpaceX Falcon 9 from Florida, part of the company's plan to create a constellation of 12,000 satellites in Earth's orbit to improve global internet service. The satellites, visible as a "Starlink train," provide internet coverage in remote locations and were mistaken for space debris entering the Earth's atmosphere. The phenomenon, known as the "jellyfish effect," occurs when the setting sun illuminates the release of the satellites into orbit, creating a captivating sight in the night sky.
