http://www.examiner.com/x-5182-Dallas-Weather-Examiner~y2009m12d9-Strange-spiral-in-sky-over-Norway-UFO Digital image processing is so advanced these days that it would be easy to dismiss the above picture as simply having been Photo-shopped, but this is not the case. According to spaceweather.com (as well as several Norwegian-language news sources which do this author little good!) ,sky-watchers throughout northern Norway spotted this amazing phenomenon in the heavens on the night of Dec 8-9, 2009. No one knows for sure what it was, but here is the account from Nick Banbury, who witnessed the event from Harstad, Norway: It consisted initially of a green beam of light similar in color to the aurora with a mysterious rotating spiral at one end.this spiral then got bigger and bigger until it turned into a huge halo in the sky with the green beam extending down to the earth. According to the press, this could be seen all over northern Norway and must therefore have been very high up in the atmosphere to be seen hundreds of km apart Some say it my have been a Russian rocket careening out of control, but the tight-lipped Russians deny this at present. I'll be keeping an eye on this story for further developments. But it is still a mystery as to what created this fantastic sight. If you're a SETI kind of person, perhaps the aliens have at last arrived, but I don't recommend gambling on that in Vegas. -:)
