We hear about people discovering bizarre objects in the skyline from countries like America.
This time the citizens of Bengaluru captured a strange phenomenon in the sky on Monday morning.
They witnessed a stream of light that appeared in the shape of V.
Some people thought it was a natural phenomenon while there were others who concluded that it was a UFO.
A user from Malleswaram said: “Today, Morning Sky: God is the Artist, #Nature is the Canvas.”
Another user tweeted, “Are aliens in Bengaluru for FDI?”
Finally the speculations were laid to rest by Scientists.
They explained that the phenomenon was because of the Polar Satellite Launch Vehicle (PSLV)-C52 that was put into orbit by the Indian Space Research Organisation (Isro) from Sriharikota in Andhra Pradesh. The rocket carried three satellites.
“The light people saw was that of the PSLV launch. Usually, people do not get a chance to see the rockets as they are launched during the daytime. So, it (the sighting) is not that common. But when the launch takes place during the dark hours and the skies have good conditions, it can sometimes be visible.” Dr B S Shylaja, former director of the Jawaharlal Nehru Planetarium, told Deccan Herald.
