00:00This video of the skies over Hawaii was captured at the end of January this year.
00:08Blink and you'll miss it.
00:09But those are the mysterious green lasers that were blasting across the night sky.
00:13It was initially reported that the lasers were coming from a NASA satellite.
00:16But a NASA spokesperson says it wasn't theirs.
00:19So what the heck was doing it?
00:20Well, fortunately, it was a satellite.
00:23The National Astronomical Observatory of Japan just misattributed the event to the wrong one.
00:27Apparently, based on the trajectory of the lasers, it was likely a Chinese .T1 AEMS satellite.
00:33That one was only just launched in April of last year, now orbiting the Earth as an atmospheric environmental monitoring satellite.
00:39It's specifically looking at our planet's carbon levels and how much pollution is in the air.
00:44It does so by doing what was recorded here, firing out dual wavelength lasers meant to bounce off particles
00:49and produce metrics on what kind and how many of those molecules are present in any particular area.
00:57It was mostly reinforced in the air.
00:59It may be quite certain of the freedom of the snow and has been used.
01:01CRISt ja Liszt seen некоторые houses looking on, here for since a few months ago more people are not living.
01:03So that mattered to me, it has a huge amount of wild skin.
