"Mysterious Bright Light in West Texas Sky Traced to SpaceX Launch"
The bright light seen in the sky over West Texas was likely caused by SpaceX's launch of the Crew-8 mission to the International Space Station, as well as two launches for StarLink satellites. The phenomenon observed, known as the Twilight Phenomenon, was due to the upper stage of the rocket pushing the satellites into orbit, creating a visually striking effect in the twilight sky. This occurrence, while unusual, was not a cause for concern and provided a special viewing experience for onlookers.
