Strange Lights in the Sky Freak Out Cyclist


A cyclist has captured a strange light in the clouds that looked like a giant was flashing a torch in the heavens.

Of course that’s impossible, so it was probably aliens.

Or it could have been a strange weather phenomenon.

‘A lightning discharge in a thundercloud can temporarily change the electric field above the cloud where charged ice crystals were reflecting sunlight,’ the apod.nasa.gov website said while talking about a similar video.

‘The new electric field quickly re-orients the geometric crystals to a new orientation that reflects sunlight differently.’

The cyclist who recorded the clip in Greenwood, Indiana, seemed really shocked, although we’re not quite sure why.

The YouTube video was uploaded by NomadFreeman.
