A glowing formation described by witnesses as a 'space jellyfish' was seen across parts of the Philippines on the evening of 11 April 2026. The Philippine Space Agency (PhilSA) said the sighting was 'highly likely' caused by the passage of a Chinese Jielong-3 rocket launched from the South China Sea.
The display occurred at around 19:40 local time and was visible in several regions, including Samar and Leyte. Images and videos shared online showed a bright central glow with trailing, translucent formations extending across the sky.
