Residents of the Arkhangelsk Region and neighboring areas in Russia observed a 'space jellyfish' phenomenon in the sky following the launch of the Soyuz-2.1b rocket from the Plesetsk Cosmodrome. The event occurred on May 17, creating a spectacular visual effect as the sun illuminated the rocket's gases. The phenomenon was also visible in Russia's Leningrad region over Lake Ladoga. The 'space jellyfish' effect is caused by the rocket's trail being illuminated by the sun, creating a jellyfish-like appearance in the sky.
