On October 13, 2026, SpaceX successfully launched a Falcon 9 rocket carrying the Dragon cargo spacecraft as part of the CRS-35 mission contracted by NASA. The mission is designed to deliver cargo and equipment to the International Space Station. The launch attracted attention not only for its scientific and logistical significance but also for an unusual visual phenomenon. Since the launch occurred at dawn or dusk, the rocket's exhaust plume was brightly illuminated by sunlight at a particular angle. This created a distinctive glow in the sky resembling the shape of a jellyfish—a phenomenon that specialists and astronomy enthusiasts call a 'space jellyfish' or 'jellyfish effect'. This effect occurs due to the scattering of light in the upper atmosphere, where expanding gases from the rocket stage separation form a cloud illuminated by the sun while it remains dark on the ground or before dawn breaks. Such phenomena are periodically observed during launches conducted at sunset or dawn and become a popular subject for photographers and amateur astronomers. The CRS-35 mission continues the series of regular SpaceX cargo flights to the ISS as part of NASA's contract for commercial station resupply. The Dragon spacecraft delivers scientific equipment, consumables, and supplies for the station's crew to orbit.
