Chinese Satellite Fired Green Lasers Over Hawaii: NASA Experts | Facts Matter

In late January, Japanese astronomers stationed in Hawaii noticed mysterious green laser beams that were being fired over the island. The laser beams are being shot down from space over one of the largest mountain ranges in Hawaii.

Initially, when they first reported these beams to the public, these astronomers said that they came from a NASA satellite—they were thought to be American lasers. But just a week after their initial statement, the Japanese astronomers issued a correction saying that these green laser beams were not from a U.S. satellite, but instead, they more likely came from a Chinese satellite.
