Original Note:
Photo was taken by Travis Secrest in 2018. The Marathon Petroleum refinery had a flare off due to a compressor problem. The fireball in the photo was due to the lens of his phone’s camera & the haze that typically surrounds the refinery. The fireball wasn't actually there. https://www.cincinnati.com/story/news/2023/08/11/hoax-alert-this-photo-doesnt-show-an-attack-in-maui-its-from-ohio/70576296007/
