Illusion, anomaly, UFO? A mysterious glow was spotted in the sky over Minsk

Minsk residents who went for a walk on October 28 might have noticed an unusual glow in the sky. Belarusians in different parts of the city observed both single and paired pillars of light. According to eyewitnesses, such light sources "appeared and then disappeared," writes "Onliner."

In Threads, people began to guess what it was — an anomaly, an illusion, or even a spaceship? Such assumptions sound interesting, but reality is much more prosaic.

Light pillars that appeared in the air are an atmospheric optical phenomenon. It occurs because light from lanterns, searchlights, or other bright sources reflects off the facets of tiny flat ice crystals in the air.

As a result, it appears to the observer that a vertical pillar of light extends upwards or downwards from the light source. Such pillars can be yellow, orange, white, or reddish.
