Strange sighting over Norway

This Video and Story were taken from the front page of Yahoo



Mystery Light Show Dazzles Web
by Claudine Zap

We've heard of the Northern Lights. But we've never seen anything like this. The good people of northern Norway were recently treated to quite a display. As you'll see in the video, a town was lit up with what looks like a shooting blue star that burst into a giant white spiral that then beams a ray of blue light from its center. It is beautiful and baffling. And completely mysterious.

Those who missed the Arctic show headed to the Web, causing searches on "norway spiral" to immediately surge into the stratosphere.

There has got to be a logical explanation: Residents hailing a masked superhero, perhaps? A Spirograph Photoshopped into the sky? Imminent alien invasion? Well, the various independent photos and videos coming in confirm it's not a fake. Scientists have said it's not the Northern Lights, although it is in the north and it is a light. One Norwegian astronomer quoted by the Daily Mail opined that at first he thought it was a "fireball meteor," but it went on too long. The reason behind the show is probably man-made.

More than likely say experts, it was a Russian missile. While the Russian Defense Ministry would not comment, the circumstantial evidence is mounting that this is what a spiraling rocket jettisoning fuel looks like. And it sure is pretty.

UFO Over Norway: Residents Baffled By Mysterious Swirling Blue Light In The Sky

Residents in the north of Norway are mystified by a bizarre UFO that flashed over the sky. Pictures and video footage of the strange swirling blue light in the sky do not help much in the way of determining what caused the UFO. The description of how it happened is pretty incredible:

The phenomenon began when what appeared to be a blue light seemed to soar up from behind a mountain. It stopped mid-air, then began to circulate.

Within seconds a giant spiral had covered the entire sky. Then a green-blue beam of light shot out from its centre - lasting for ten to twelve minutes before disappearing completely.

Here are some better videos.

One of the lame explanations given by the skeptics is that this could have been a Russian missile test gone bad, After watching the following videos all I can say is, that is no missile.

I found the following on the Hot Air Blog, That's why it's little off the wall Grin


The freaky quadruple deaky Norway UFO
posted at 4:50 pm on December 9, 2009 by Allahpundit

An historic occasion, my friends. In the long, long history of freaky material posted at HA — bigfoot videos, disembodied talking robot heads, muppets covering Queen — this may well be the very deakiest.

Isn’t this the thing Bruce Campbell got sucked into at the end of “Evil Dead 2″?

Within seconds a giant spiral had covered the entire sky. Then a green-blue beam of light shot out from its centre – lasting for ten to twelve minutes before disappearing completely.
The Norwegian Meteorological Institute was flooded with telephone calls after the light storm – which astronomers have said did not appear to have been connected to the aurora, or Northern Lights, so common in that area of the world.
The mystery deepened tonight as Russia denied it had been conducting missile tests in the area…
Tromsø Geophysical Observatory researcher Truls Lynne Hansen was certain the light had been caused by a missile launch.
He told Norwegian media that the missile had likely lost control and exploded. The spiral, he claimed, was the result of light reflecting on the leaking fuel. He was quoted as saying the light was sunlight, despite the strange lights showing up at night.


That blue spiral seems awfully tight for a missile gone awry, but Pop Sci’s also leaning towards that explanation and notes that a similar spiral was seen over China earlier this year. Hmmmm. Other possibilities: (1) test run for a new Norwegian death ray; (2) divine sign heralding the Messiah’s arrival in Oslo; (3) mini-black hole caused by Hadron collider misfire; (4) aliens, aliens, aliens. All theories welcome!

Very exciting, I wonder if the governments of the world will ever admit that we have extraterrestials among us?

 Guess the Russians aren't taking responsibility.

Q,

From the BBC World News...

"Norwegians have been left mystified by a strange light display in the night sky captured over a military base in Skjold.

Eyewitnesses were left wondering whether they had seen a UFO.

However a statement from Moscow later confirmed that a missile launch from a Russian submarine in the region had failed.
"

Wind,

Did NOT look like a missile to me either. What it is....Huh??

Thanks no thing.  On our news last night they were saying the Russians were denying it.

First the Russians are denying it, now they’re taking credit for it, something isn’t adding up here.

Could this be another cover up?   Are we on the verge of something major happening on our planet?
 First the Halo over Russia (Explained off as a natural weather phenomenon, an explanation that I don’t buy!) and now this!

I’ve did a little digging (Which I need to do more Smiley) and I have found that Norway has been a hot spot for UFO activity, as has Russia lately.


Here’s the official update of this sighting, (Which again I don’t buy!)

New Russian missile failure sparks UFO frenzy

by Stuart Williams

MOSCOW (AFP) – Russia's new nuclear-capable missile suffered another failed test launch, the defence ministry said Thursday, solving the mystery of a spectacular plume of white light that appeared over Norway.
The Bulava missile was test-fired from the submarine Dmitry Donskoi in the White Sea early Wednesday but failed at the third stage, the defence ministry said in a statement.
The pre-dawn morning launch coincided with the appearance of an extraordinary light over northern Norway that captivated observers.
Images of the light that appeared in the sky above the Norwegian city of Tromso and elsewhere prompted explanations ranging from a meteor, northern lights, a failed missile or even a UFO.
Describing the latest failure of the Bulava as a major embarrassment for the military, leading Russian defence analyst Pavel Felgenhauer said the images were consistent with a missile failure.
"Such lights and clouds appear from time to time when a missile fails in the upper layers of the atmosphere and have been reported before," he told AFP.
"At least this failed test made some nice fireworks for the Norwegians," he joked.
The White Sea, which is the usual site for such missile tests by Russian submarines, lies close to Norway's own Arctic region.
This was the 12th test launch of the Bulava and the seventh time the firing has ended in failure, the Interfax news agency said.
The submarine-launched missile is central to Russia's plan to revamp its ageing weapons arsenal but is beset by development problems.
"The first two stages of the rocket worked but in the final and third stage there was a technical failure," the defence ministry said in a statement.
The statement said the problem was with the engine in the third stage, while in past launches the first stage had been faulty.
The problems with the Bulava have become an agonising issue for the defence ministry, which has ploughed a large proportion of its procurement budget into ensuring the missile becomes the key element of its rocket forces.
The previous failure in July forced the resignation of Yury Solomonov, the director of the Moscow Institute of Thermal Technology which is responsible for developing the missile.
Felgenhauer said that it had dealt a serious blow to Russia's bid to maintain a credible nuclear deterrent.
"By the year 2030, Russia could lose its position as a global nuclear power if the problems are not solved. And it could be that these missiles will never fly properly.
"The Russian defence industry has disintegrated to such an extent that it simply cannot make such a complicated system work. Technology and expertise have been lost," he said.
The problems are also a major political embarrassment, coming as Russia negotiates with the United States the parameters of a new arms reduction treaty to replace the 1991 START accord.
The treaty expired on December 5, and despite intense negotiations the two sides have yet to agree the text of a new deal.
In a separate development, a successful test-firing took place of Russia's intercontinental surface-to-surface ballistic missile Topol RS-12M, news agencies quoted a statement from the strategic rocket forces as saying.
The missile -- introduced to the rocket forces before the fall of the Soviet Union -- was fired from the southern Russian region of Astrakhan and hit its target at a testing range in neighbouring Kazakhstan.
The Bulava, which can be equipped with up to 10 individually targeted nuclear warheads, has a maximum range of 8,000 kilometres (5,000 miles).
It is the sea-based version of the Topol-M, Russia's new surface-to-surface intercontinental missile, and designed to be launched from Moscow's newest Borei class of submarines.
Defence analysts say that a further headache for the military is that the new submarines are designed to be compatible with Bulava and if the new missile fails to work the vessels will be virtually useless.

Claudine Zap Wrote the first article, apparently she wasn’t qualified enough to write the follow-up to it? Either that Or someone higher steped in to put a quiet to it!

If you’re like me then I’m quite sure you can punch holes all throughout this explanation.

# 1 You’re telling me that out of twelve failed attempts nothing like this has ever been seen before filmed or reported on?  (Highly unlikely!)

Quote
This was the 12th test launch of the Bulava and the seventh time the firing has ended in failure, the Interfax news agency said.

# 2 Russia the only country to match the United States in nuclear weaponry has become incompetent and has suddenly lost the technology to make successful missiles? (Give me a break, this is a complete load of BULL!) 

Quote
The Russian defense industry has disintegrated to such an extent that it simply cannot make such a complicated system work. Technology and expertise have been lost

# 3 If Russia’s defenses have in fact disintegrated as much as we are being lead to believe in this article then why is there the need for a new arms reduction treaty?  (I can guarantee you that if the Russian nuclear program was really in this kind of disarray they wouldn’t be telling us their old Cold War buddies about it.   This kind of information is something that they would want to keep Top Secret and tightly under wraps!) 

Quote
By the year 2030, Russia could lose its position as a global nuclear power if the problems are not solved. And it could be that these missiles will never fly properly.

The problems are also a major political embarrassment, coming as Russia negotiates with the United States the parameters of a new arms reduction treaty to replace the 1991



So was this article completely made up?  Is it in fact a Cover Up?   
If it is then who’s covering it up, who’s responsible here? 
Is it the Russians? Or the Americans?

Or is it Both?
