Strange spiral: Residents in northern Norway were left stunned after the lightshow, which almost looked computer-generated, appeared in the skies above them


Curious: A blue-green beam of light was reported to have come shooting out the centre of the spiral


Confusion: The Norwegian Meteorological Institute was flooded with calls after the light storm


What could it be? Astronomers say the spectacle did not appear to be connected to the Northern Lights

You tube of spiral.

Unless these are a hoax, which is very certainly possible, I think an electric universe Ping is in order...

If you want on or off the Electric Universe Ping List, Freepmail me.

Wow! That’s interesting!

PS: I’m so sick of reading about Romney on every dammed thread I click on. Is there an option to turn that crap off? It’s beginning to border on spam, IMO.

I never have liked Romney at all, I don’t need to be constantly reminded why.

Barring a hoax, I wouldn't be surprised if it were a rocket launch coupled with some sort of atmospheric optical waveguide.

Or, it was some side effect of the Large hadron collider.

Or, it was a sign to the Norweigans similar to the Star of Bethlehem signaling Obama's arrival.

Well, the real question is one of what it was pointing at.

Yep. A big blue screw coming out of a hypnotist's disc...

Looks like an extremely high powered laser on a conical scanner. But with a duration of 15 minutes, well, that is unimaginable!

1. It was a small black hole caused by turning on that atom-smasher :)

OR

2. It was a test of a Russian missile with some new type of antimissile countermeasure.

OR

3. It was a very powerful blue-green laser show projecting onto a fogbank or ice crystal fog. But I’ve never seen a system that could actually project an image onto a plane (which this seemed to do). It’s possible that it could be done with interference (of the optical kind).

In any case, it was pretty spectacular from the pictures and videos I’ve seen.

Apparently Romney is hanging out with Mike Savage.

With any luck it will move over to Copenhagen and suck up all the participants at the Climage Change summit.

All curse and spit on Satan’s name
Let demons cower in fear
Bring forth the One Ring, all men to enslave
And kill each soul as a game.

It's either that, or the the Illudium Q-36 Explosive Space Modulator. It probably best if everyone's on the lookout for this guy...

A friend and I tried to figure where a large series of whorls in the aurora was over the North American continent, and came up with a minimg area up in Manitoba.

I think near surface ore bodies have a distortion effect on the magnetic field. Other disturbances may apply, but without knowing anything about where the blue spiral is pointing, it is really tough to say.

Someone might have a really neat laser lightshow setup, too...
