Default MUST SEE ! Wormhole/portal effect seen over Norway.

This is quite spooky. This morning a strange spiral was seen in the sky over Norway:







And there's some video footage of it here too:

A mysterious phenomenen of light on the nightsky shocked citizens of northern and mid-Norway on wednesday morning....

...It spun around and exploded in the sky...

...It looked like it came over a mountain. First it followed a path, until it disintegrated. Then it suddenly became a huge sphere, so large that it covered the entire sky.

Meteorologists in Tromsø have no idea what caused the light:

"We don't know what it is. I don't want to assume anything about it, but it appears to have been very spectacular"

"People describe the moving light as overwhelming, extremely beautiful, and partially frightening. They describe it as a new years rocket that looks like a spinning spiral."

The phenomenon lasted for a few minutes, just before eight on Wednesday morning. The meteorologist says the light apparently has come from the east.


Scary stuff. I wonder what it is ? Is this first contact ? Or a very bizarre cause of nature ?

I would say it's something else entirely. My money is on it either being completely fabricated or else something that was projected from the ground (you can see the light cone in both the pictures and video), manipulated (the pictures are obviously doctored) and misrepresented (sold as something it isn't). In other words, yet another hoax.

Now the only question is whether it's viral marketing or just some tech geeks having fun at the expense of the credulous.

Definitely a hoax... you can clearly see the "search" light being beamed from the ground. Might as well have just made it the bat symbol instead.

I don't know of any projector that can bend light ? Neither a laser that can curve through space like that ?

You have to watch the videos to truly appreciate it - but thousands of people saw it, and the source light wasn't emanating from the ground. Most bizarre.

I don't buy the 'rocket leaking fuel being backlit by the rising sun' theory myself.

It is strange how the spiral in the sky looks almost computer generated though ?

I watched both videos and saw nothing inconsistent with a natural explanation (i.e. spotlight). I see no light being bent or space being curved.

The fact that thousands of people saw it is immaterial. Because it was projected into the sky (from the ground) thousands of people will see it. How those thousands personally reconcile what they're perceiving has no impact on what is actually taking place.

By any chance, did a 6 year old kid get sucked up into the vortex?

Sorry, how do you know it was projected into the sky ? What was it projected onto, and what projector do you know that can do this ?:



After the spiral had disappeared :

This second group doesn't look like they're projected, but the first ones do. The first ones also look to be manipulated. If you look at the progression of photos on this page you'll see things don't look so sinister. I don't know if The Barents Observer is a trustworthy source, but this site says the plume is a noctilucent cloud created by a Russian missile launch. Regardless, it seems a more plausible explanation than a wormhole forming in the morning sky.

The second video makes it look like it was projected, but some of the photos look like it's some kind of cloud. Pretty cool whatever it is.

The flash of light you saw in the sky was not a UFO. Swamp gas from a weather balloon was trapped in a thermal pocket and reflected the light from Venus....move along people..
