Another Unexplained Flash of Light Caught by Russian Dash Cams
Another Unexplained Flash of Light Caught by Russian Dash Cams
Besides providing hours of entertainment related to traffic incidents, Russian dash cams have the added benefit of catching unexplained phenomena that seem to happen with increasing regularity. What’s going on, Russia?
On March 17, residents of the city of Stavropol in southern Russia witnessed a strange event. A little over midnight, a silent flash of light briefly illuminated the night sky. One driver who happened to be in the right place at the right time caught the whole thing and shared it with the rest of the world, prompting a heated discussion.
The blue flash of light was dead silent but caused a few problems. According to witness reports, streetlights went out and apparently the power grid was affected as many people said the light in their homes flickered for some time after the event.
This behavior has led some to believe that the flash could have produced some sort electromagnetic disturbance, creating uneasiness among the residents of Stavropol.
One possible explanation for the flash is the explosion of an electrical system. However, the absence of a boom that would accompany such an explosion meant the cause lies elsewhere. Also, the local authorities made no report of an accident taking place.
Northern Lights were also ruled out due to to the intensity and duration of the flash. It couldn’t have been caused by a meteor either, because 1) none were reported and 2) there was no bang.
The Russian Hydrometeorological center stated that the burst of light could not be“attributed to nature” and that no unusual meteorological phenomena were recorded during the night of March 17. They believe the source of the light was ground-based.
People are clueless about the nature of this flash and multiple explanations have been put forward. Many of them are linked to the military exercises that took place in Stavropol last week. The Russian Ministry of Defense gave no comments.
Other possible explanations include extraterrestrial space crafts, electromagnetic weapons and HAARP experiments. Pick your favorite.
In November of 2014, another Russian dash cam video made the rounds and has since remained unexplained:
