I was going to say that!
Nifty photos - what are those? Curious. Looks as if a vortex.

Alaska can have exotic skies, such as our aurora borealis, as a result of our Arctic locale so I wonder if that's the case with Norway since our latitudes overlap. Thanks for sharing.

Ah yeah thank you for that -- last night I saw this covered on a news show but they didn't explain the mechanism or the details!

It's ironic that if someone wanted to fake this with Photoshop or whatever they'd probably work hard to make it more "realistic" looking. :lol:

Well, you never know. You might catch a flying doctor and end up on a Journey Into Space.

...Oh no! It's that noise! It's that funny noise again Doc! Doc!

yeah I thought it must have been the Russians. but I thought they'd opened a portal to travel back in time and bring Stalin back or something along those lines ;)
