Video, what was the perfect spiral that appeared above the sky of Hawaii a few days ago

A "mysterious vortex" was spotted Wednesday by the Subaru Telescope in Mauna Kea, Hawaii.

The spiral seems to be related to the launch of a new rocket from Elon Musk's SpaceX company. The extraordinary spiral was composed of the excessive, frozen fuel that was ejected during a SpaceX launch.
A video of the ethereal light show was captured on January 18 by the Subaru-Asahi Star Camera - owned by the National Astronomical Observatory of Japan (NAOJ) and the Japanese news agency Asahi Shimbun - connected to the Subaru telescope atop Mauna Kea, a dormant volcano on the Big Island of Hawaii and has since gone viral and taken up by numerous newspapers and sites around the world, in this case from CBS. In the accelerated footage, a small mass of light unfolds in a perfect luminous vortex that moves across the sky for several minutes before vanishing into thin air.
