This is the first case in a long long tiem that is really weird to me-ie so many witnesses it's not someone making it all up.. my one question is this:
It all the pictures i have seen the spiral is always facing the observer. How is this possible?
Why aren't there differnaces in how the spiral appears, instead of the perfect shape that is shown in all the pictures??
It's almost as if it's a flat 2D sprite in a 3D environment so that it is always facing the observer......

LOL!! I went to a concert 3 years ago in Dallas, Texas at the Smirnoff Center and they had to spotlights outside that made this EXACT spiral effect on the nights sky. Look on Para-tube.com they have this video of the Norway spirals and you can clearly see its coming from a house near by....
And ancient civilizations drew the spirals because everything that is living and made up of matter has a spiral in it one way or another. look at galaxies, tree trunks, DNA, skin cells, the way your fingernails grow if you let them grow out long, the list goes on and on and on. The Golden Spiral.

Just because I joined today doesn't mean I am an idiot... Just because it is all over the web saying this was a Russian missile fired from a submarine that spun out of control creating this vapor trail doesn't mean that is what it is. If it is where is the explosion? where is the vapor trail from the missile? (it is not the blue vapor, I have never seen a missile or rocket leave a blue trail) Where is the debris?? again that could something similar to the Northern Lights.
But I do appreciate you really looking into this, I did in fact read it before I posted. Everyone has their right to an opinion so I gave mine and I did in fact see damn near the exact same thing but it was in the clouds from a spotlight. Sorry if my post seemed kinda A-Holeish. But what exactly makes you the expert on this? Did you create the missile? Did you witness this first hand? Anyway good info and thanks........

Ohh and BTW here is a little info for you. If you are going to post on here you should know that people are going to ask questions and possibly disagree with you no matter how much time and research you put into something. Now granted I did call this dumb (my bad for that) but I have been at work the last 14 hours trying to figure out something that I witnessed at an AFB in England and juggling my work load. So I'm a little tired, confused, stressed, and many other things. Once again sorry for pissing you off because the "new" guy had some questions about the spiral. And I'm really not new here I have been looking around on this site for a year or so but I have been on a gov't computer so I didn't want to create an account. Now I have access to the internet from my house off base finally so I created an account.
Good luck and I hope we are squared
The spiral followed the missile flight trajectory (red line) and because of its orientation in space, it would appear to most observers from Skjervoy (in the north) to Puoltsa (further south) as being almost face on.

Are you sure. Looking at the picture, they obviously see the event from the side, and not face on.
To see it face on, it would have to travel more from left to right over the map.
I'm not at all clear on how you think that all the observers were seeing the spiral event edge on. All visual evidence taken by observers from Skjervoy to Puoltsa clearly show the orientation of the spiral as presenting face on to the observers, with only small variations from a perfect full face on.
