'NIGHT SPIRAL' OVER HAWAII: On Saturday night, April 17th, a luminous spiral spun across the night sky. It was photographed by the "Subaru-Asahi Star Camera" on Mauna Kea:
It looks like a giant galaxy. In fact, it came from SpaceX. Earlier the same day, a Falcon 9 rocket launched from California's Vandenberg Space Force Base carrying a reconnaissance satellite (NROL-85) to orbit. The spiral was the aftermath.
The video "shows the characteristic spiral caused by the post-deorbit-burn fuel vent of the Falcon 9 upper stage, which was deorbitted over the Pacific just after the end of the 1st revolution," explains satellite observer Dr. Marco Langbroek.
One of the more interesting objects in a while - when was this seen? Thanks for sharingObject over Bangkok, Thailand.
Darn it why do they always turn out blurry! On the other hand sightings seem to be on the uptick. Could things be heating up?A recent UFO spotted in Vegas has a slightly similar profile to the Belgian UFO incident, (from 29 November 1989 to April 1990).

One reason Las Vegas is so popular is because anything can happen there - you can marry a stranger, you can win a multi-million dollar jackpot, or, in the case of one person, you can spot a UFO.
The eyewitness was in her car when she heard what sounded like a jet. She got out her phone and opened her window just in time to film an odd, saucer-shaped object pass right overhead.
The craft doesn't look like any typical plane, but it should be noted that Area 51 is not far away, and it's a well-known rumor that at the infamous location, the Air Force works on experimental aircraft, though some people think that it is actually a testing ground for alien technology.
Commenters were pretty convinced by the video, writing things like, "Wow, yeah that’s something for sho… possible ufo," and, "Wow, it definitely doesn't have any wings, IDK what it is?!"
Another person suspected it is an alien drone, stating, "It is a great example of an ET drone in the spin mode. They are 2 gold balls connected between a long black rod/bar.
They spin anyway and or can orb it up into that white fuzz ball we all seen everywhere."
The original poster said that the sighting took place on April 18 while going towards Area 51, noting that she saw the craft as "clear as day."
No comment yet from the military or the FAA on what the UFO could be.

Just a thought; what about HBAL Project Loon ?
(Google's stratospheric balloons)
There are these balloons flying across the world at 65.000 feet - could they possibly explain the light phenomenas shown in video clips in the previous entries ? I mean at that great height, it makes them easily appear as diffuse, reflective objects, still able to reflect the sunlight when observed against a twilight sky.
Thanks XPan, it could be one plausible explanation. However, this project was closed on 21th January 2021, according to Wikipedia, but it remains to be seen how many of these balloons are still up there. And considering the picture of one of these balloon on the Wikipedia page linked above, it does not seem to explain what was the little luminous circle behind what looked like a little cloud.Just a thought; what about HBAL Project Loon ?

„Oh dear, some kid lost a balloon… “
But then on a second thought, that „balloon“ was too round, too fast, moving in a too straight line and looked too „solid“, for lack of a better term….
