MYSTERIOUS spirals thought to be frozen fuel from a Space X rocket have been spotted in the sky above Britain tonight.
The white phenomenon was seen by countless across the UK at around 8pm this evening.
Abbey Nicholls, 25, spotted the mystical pattern above her home in Middleton, Manchester.
She stepped out into her front garden thinking it was a “shooting star” before quickly realising it was something else.
Abbey said: “It was like a whirlpool of lights floating across the sky.
“It made me feel really strange.
“I've never seen anything like that before.”
BBC lead weather presenter Simon King explained: “Watchers have captured the SpaceX spiral in the skies above the UK this evening after a rocket launch in the US.
“[It was] caused by illuminated frozen fuel expelled from the rocket second stage.”
