THEORIES ABOUND THAT THE SPIRAL WAS OF AN OTHERWORLDLY NATURE… If you looked up into the sky last night in France, you may have seen a mysterious blue spiral in the sky. Appearing abruptly
around 21:00, the spiral was bright and easy to spot even in larger towns. Ut led to some impressive photos. It was seen across France – particularly in the north and west – leading to local
media being inundated with photos and questions about it. Several theories emerged, including of course that it was a UFO, a ‘spying rocket’, or the start of World War Three. CAUSED BY US
ROCKETS The truth is less exciting, although a rocket was involved. The spiral was caused by the outgassing (dégazage) of a SpaceX rocket launched from Florida earlier that day. It
happened as a second part of the rocket detached when over Europe (as planned). > [Spirale bleue brillante 🌀 ce lundi soir sur le Centre - Val de > Loire : explications] > >

launched. Read more: Did you know? Orange also provides internet via satellite to customers in France
