Rocket-related clouds - 23.3.2023 at 20.37 - 23.3.2023 at 20.53 Laitila Observation number 113848

Visibility IV / V

Pirjo Koski, Porin Karhunvartijat

A byproduct of Repokytis after the clouds have cleared the sky :) Barium clouded people and people from Repo. (Photographing the launch itself was a dream this time, as we had to start changing the shooting location due to the conditions) Barium blue was visible for quite a long time in the pictures, until 20:53. Even after that time, there was a vague amount of blue in the aurora borealis, so the actual duration of the color in the sky must have been at least twenty minutes?

      Barium clouds have very rarely been seen in the sky during rocket launches. Typically a space organization has done an experiment in which a barium cloud is released into the upper atmosphere.
