Photographer Santiago Arévalo said he went down to the beach at midnight that night with four people. The goal was to make astrophotography of the Milky Way.
Santiago: We all sat on the sand looking at the stars and talking for a while, around 1.30 am we see that from behind the mountains, on the other side of the lake, a kind of white glow begins to appear on which he managed to capture the exact moment when a huge luminous object lit up in the night sky.
We all thought it was the moon coming out of that sector, which is very strange because the moon comes out from the totally opposite side.
I was able to record this and you can see the trace that light made over the time the camera closed, that’s why you can see a line and not a point.
The next day we talked to other acquaintances who were in the same campsite and they told us that they were also watching it from another section of the beach.What did NASA say about it?
NASA explained that this huge light object correspondents with the passage of a rocket that belonged to a failed lunar mission in 1966, which was propelled by a centaur from the 1960s.
