PHOTO OF OBJECT WITH 3 BEAMS OF LIGHT TRAILING. (FALCON 9 ROCKET).
Description: It’s rays were like the sun shining through a hole in the clouds, but, there was no sun, no moon, and no clouds. Shortly after it appeared to be going south, with 3 beams of light trailing behind it. That’s where the video picks up. It then faded out of sight. That is when I noticed there were no clouds in the area that I had just seen this light.
