Phenomenon believed to have origins in launch of military GPS satellite from SpaceX in Florida

Tue 31 Jan 2023 15.11 GMTA camera on top of Hawaii’s tallest mountain has captured what looks like a spiral swirling through the night sky.

The images were captured on 18 January by a camera at the summit of Mauna Kea, outside the National Astronomical Observatory of Japan’s Subaru telescope. Ichi Tanaka, a researcher at the observatory, said he was doing other work that night and did not see it immediately. Then a stargazer watching the camera’s livestream on YouTube sent him a screenshot of the spiral using an online messaging platform.

PM’s visits to Aus Open shows ‘rank hypocrisy’2CC Breakfast host Stephen Cenatiempo says Prime Minister Anthony Albanese’s visits to the Australian Open versus his four-hour visit to Alice Springs shows “rank hypocrisy”. “It’s the rank hypocrisy of a bloke that went to an election saying ‘I’ll turn up, I won’t take those days off, I’ll hold the hose’ and all that sort of stuff,” he told Sky News host Chris Kenny. “People are trying to compare it to Scott Morrison going to Hawaii on a holiday when the bushfires were happening. “The reality is that Scott Morrison couldn’t actually physically do anything about those bushfires. “Albo’s got a real problem going on in Alice Springs that he needed to be on the ground sorting out.” Just a thought from a guy from 'far away': About this small radioactive device that is missing - maybe a street-cleaningmachine has picked it up by now!? Just saying - hope you find it ASAP! Best wishes to you guys Down Under! (Oh yeahyeah!) 🙂😎
