This strange almost perfect 'ice circle' has appeared on a frozen lake in Siberia. While scientists have ruled out UFO involvement, they are puzzled as to how the mysterious, 2.5mile-wide geological phenomenon has formed in Lake Baikal. It was spotted at the southern edge of the lake while another was seen near the centre. The images were taken by astronauts aboard the International Space Station circling 220 miles above Earth.

Hot spot below?? Old Mountain top?
The cracks say the volume is shrinking?? From heat??

Interesting. I’m suspecting some kind of current. I’ve got a book of Michigan mysteries that shows the mysterious ice circles on a lake near my home.

In the last few years, the Iron County Reporter, a weekly out of Iron River,MI, published a photo of an ice circle on the Paint River during the early Spring.

Do the circles look the same? I wonder if the second circle in the picture also has cracks.

Here's one on Mud lake in Liberty Township Michigan.
If I recall correctly they form pretty much every year.

That is one of the Russkies nuclear torpedoes that they were testing during the cold war. Many of the torpedoes malfunctioned and went to the bottom where they were unrecoverable. The heat generated by the plutonium causes a change in the water temperature at the surface. These circles will appear for 250 million years and then suddenly disappear. Not to worry though, we have a trillion plus dollar debt.
