Huge Jellyfish Sprite And Halo Above The Caribbean Sea

This jellyfish sprite was preceded by what could be a cosmic ray hit to the camera sensor or maybe something else.

There was no flash before or after the event, so not an airplane or a star. It was 1:00 am so not a satellite or rocket body.



This camera was supplied to me by the Arecibo Observatory for an upcoming meteor campaign in November. The camera is a Watec 902H Ultimate and it is enclosed in a watec weather proof housing with built in heater to prevent fogging of the lens.
