What Queenslanders saw on Tuesday evening was almost certainly the exhaust plume from a Chinese ZhuQue-2E Block 2 rocket shortly after launch from China's Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center.

The launch occurred at about 6:20 pm AEST, matching the timing reported by observers across Queensland.

The rocket is a methane-and-liquid-oxygen launcher developed by LandSpace, capable of carrying up to about 6,000 kg into low Earth orbit. Reports indicate the June 9 mission successfully placed two satellites into orbit.

The phenomenon is sometimes nicknamed a "space jellyfish" because the illuminated exhaust cloud can look like a glowing comet, UFO, or celestial creature drifting across the twilight sky. Similar displays have been seen after launches by SpaceX, NASA, and other space agencies.

For people on the Sunshine Coast, Noosa, Brisbane, Townsville and elsewhere in Queensland, it was one of the most dramatic rocket-plume displays visible from Australia in recent years
