A video is getting a lot of attention on social media when it comes to attempting to explain what was spotted over the Las Vegas sky this week on Friday. On the morning of December 23, workers at the Sapphire Gentleman’s club on Sammy Davis Jr. Drive posted the first videos of the ‘Flying Saucer’ of what appeared to be groups of red and white lights shining in the clouds. People were quick to think that it was a UFO hovering over the club. However, this was just a rare weather phenomenon. According to a meteorologist at National Weather Service, since the clouds were not moving and temperature was cold, it was likely that what people thought of a UFO was “light pillars”. Light pillars can take place when tiny crystals of ice hanging in the atmosphere drifts down through the air, it falls close to horizontally and since ice is very reflective, so when light hits those wider faces, it bounces around and reflects off more ice crystals. UFO Spotted in Hyderabad?
