A Luminous Spiral Appeared Last Night in the Skies of France and Other European Countries: This Was its Origin

A strange luminous phenomenon, in the form of a blue spiral, appeared last night at 9 p.m. in the skies of France and many other European countries. Experts have an explanation: Was this a UFO?

Hallucination, miracle, dream... many Europeans this past Monday, March 24th, at 9 p.m., noticed a strange luminous phenomenon in the sky in their car, on their window, in their garden, or while walking. A huge blue spiral moving very slowly and rotating on its axis: obviously reminiscent of a UFO. What do the experts say?

Images Worthy of a Science Fiction Movie

It was 9:10 p.m. on Monday, March 24, French time, when the first shocks were felt on social media : "I've never seen anyone in 10 years of observation," "something huge flew over the city of Marseille," "I came to see someone in the sky, are you worried?"

This blue spiral in the sky was visible for several minutes, until 9:45 p.m. If you can spot it when the sky is cloudy, it's in France, in the Auvergne, the Centre-Val de Loire region, the Vendée, and even the French Riviera. It 's also been observed in other European countries, including Sweden, Switzerland, Lithuania, and the United Kingdom.

Certain things immediately evoked an extraterrestrial signal, which was somewhat different from the phenomenon's size, but was common. The word UFO was also used for "Unidentified Flying Object," which often appears in scenes from science fiction movies. Very quickly, sky experts unraveled the mystery of this phenomenon: no, it wasn't a UFO!

The Person Responsible: Elon Musk!

The explanation for the phenomenon is much more realistic: this blue spiral was linked to the launch and takeoff of the Falcon 9 fuselage of SpaceX , the American company of Elon Musk, President Trump's most important advisor. This fuse, Falcon 9 V1.2 (Block 5), took off on Monday, March 24, 2025 at 17:48 UTC and carried out the NROL-69 mission.

Why should I observe a spiral every three hours afterward? The spiral is forming as the SpaceX fuse separates its second stage outside Europa at 9:00 PM. At that very moment, the fuse degasses, meaning it's freed of fuel, which, illuminated by sunlight even at the beginning of the night, can form these strange spirals.

This isn't the first time these spirals have been observed: New Zealand, Hawaii, or Alaska could see them in 2023, during a SpaceX mission . This phenomenon can also appear when a satellite is released from the fuse. I'm sorry to know that aliens are still far from being able to land on Earth. For now...
