EXCERPT:. . . Mikhail Panasyuk, the director of the Research Institute of Nuclear Physics at Moscow State University, spoke to Sputnik News about this strange observation. “It looks like we have encountered new physical phenomena,” Panasyuk said. “For example, during Lomonosov's flight at an altitude of several dozen kilometers, we have registered several times a very powerful 'explosion' of light. But everything was clear underneath it, no storms, no clouds,” he continued. He added that they do not yet understand the physical nature of this strange phenomenon.
Details on these apparent light explosions are extremely vague but faint flashes of light called sprites, which appear above thunderstorms, are a relatively common occurrence. [...] Of course, if, as Panasyuk says, there were no storms below the lights, the flashes of light picked up by the Lomonosov satellite must be something else.
What about ice crystals? [...] Again if, as Panasyuk says, there were no clouds below the lights, they must be being caused by something else. Plus, it's unclear whether or not this phenomenon can be captured on a UV telescope like the one on the Lomonosov satellite. Other celestial light shows have had more terrestrial origins. [...] the aftermath of a transformer explosion at a Con Edison facility based in Queens ... the ghostly ball of light seen floating over Siberia back in 2017 is thought to have been caused by the launch of intercontinental ballistic missiles...

EXCERPT: A strange spiral-shaped cloud has left experts scratching their heads. The cloud, which resembles a jet’s vapor trail or a rocket launch, was photographed last week on Salisbury Plain in Southern England. SWNS reports that neither U.K. defense officials nor university weather experts have been unable to explain the cloud. The image was taken near a Ministry of Defense testing range. However, the U.K’s Defense Infrastructure Organization is not aware of any exercises that could have caused the cloud. [...] Mr Hargrave, 66, said he had never seen anything like it, adding: ‘I haven’t got a clue what it is either — hopefully someone out there will have an answer. It is a mystery.’ [...] The mysterious cloud formation stunned residents and some even compared it to a UFO.
