Astronomer Paul Souter says the phenomenon was created by frozen fuel tumbling from that Falcon 9 rocket as it spun.

The sun has to be in just the right position to reflect off of all those frozen methane molecules to give you the sight.

Souter : It is very strange for something like this to appear on the sky, but unlike the Starship accidents earlier this month , this is totally normal for SpaceX.
