This picture on APOD of a 'meteor strike' or 'something strange out of the sky':
http://antwrp.gsfc.nasa.gov/apod/ap041207.html

has generated much discussion on:
http://bb.nightskylive.net/asterisk/viewtopic.php?t=249&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=0

...ball lightning, exploding streetlights, flares, rockets, smoky aircraft contrails, lasers, secret energy weapons, a meteor, wrinkles in the film and time continuums, inverse Rays of Buddha, forgery, hoax, ... and more... A very long thread...


(Spoiler alert) Due to the observed symmetry, I think the real answer lies in the first posting here:

A nice example of 'unexpected' results.


Stay sharp, and note Occam's Razor!
