“#\u2018UFO\u2019 spotted over Hawaii was likely a spent rocket, expert says<\/strong>”
\n<\/p>\n

\n A UFO spotted over Hawaii on Oct. 24 was likely a spent rocket, according to experts.<\/p>\n

Professor Richard Wainscoat, a professor at the University of Hawai\u02bbi at M\u0101noa Institute for Astronomy<\/a>, believes that that lights, which sparked great interest on social media<\/a>, were likely the reentry of a spent rocket booster. The rocket had been used to launch the Venezuelan satellite, Venesat-1, back in 2008, according to the University of Hawai\u02bbi<\/p>\n

\u201cThe used rocket has been circling Earth since the launch, slowly losing altitude due to friction with the tenuous atmosphere in low-Earth orbit,\u201d explained the university in a statement. \u201cOn Saturday, the booster made its final orbits.\u201d<\/p>\n

Wainscoat works with the Pan-STARRS telescope on Haleakal\u0101. \u201cSeeing a reentry is relatively rare for a specific location like Hawai\u02bbi, since we can only see the reentry if it occurs relatively close to us,\u201d he said in the statement.<\/p>\n

Footage obtained by SWNS showed the lights moving in the sky outside Splasher\u2019s Grill in Kailua-Kona, Hawaii, at 8:50 p.m. local time.<\/p>\n

In 2017, a mysterious object in the night sky above Los Angeles was identified<\/a> as United Launch Alliance Atlas V rocket from Vandenberg Air Force base.<\/p>\n

Earlier this year a mysterious balloon-like \u201cUFO\u201d object was spotted over Japan. The object, which became a social media sensation, sparked speculation that it was a science<\/a> experiment or a weather balloon.\n <\/p><\/div>\n
