US: SpaceX Falcon 9 Launch Creates “Jellyfish Cloud”

An early morning SpaceX Falcon 9 launch from Cape Canaveral Space Force Station created a glowing “space jellyfish” effect over Florida on March 4, 2026. The phenomenon occurred when sunlight illuminated the rocket’s high-altitude exhaust plume before sunrise, producing a colorful, jellyfish-like cloud. The rocket successfully carried 29 Starlink satellites into orbit, and its booster landed safely at sea.

China: Dog Seen Hanging From Moving Car in Jiangsu

On February 10, 2026, a video filmed in Jiangsu, eastern China, showed a car driving with a small dog hanging from its rear in a woven sack tied beneath the trunk. The filmer raised concerns about the dog’s safety, including possible exhaust exposure and the risk of injury in a rear-end collision, as the vehicle continued down the road.
