The Flash in the sky - Dashcam from Russia captures sudden orange glow at night

This video suggests it originated on the ground:

Really interesting post! I claim no knowledge of this subject, however I saw this published today and felt it could be relevant?
Russia tests 'satellite catcher' www.bbc.co.uk...

First time poster, apologies if I have not used the correct format for posting, I will learn!

I agree, looks more like a power sub station going off.

Odd...an earlier poster said perhaps time lapse, but one thing I noticed is that none of the street lights went out. These are usually on a photo sensor that shuts them off when the sun rises or possibly timed. Interesting video....

Good observation, however, not all street lights are light
sensitive, a lot of street lights are still on a timing system, plus it looked
like the street light was facing away from "the explosion?"

The first thing I thought when I saw this was it looked like it
was more than likely an airborne nuck test. Which is why probably
the main stream news is not covering it.

Not to get political but

It sounds like something Putin would do at this time. He's announced
he's already breaking off of the post cold war nuclear treaty with the U.S.
and this may be a sign that he's about to back out of the treaty to not
test nucks above ground.

If the nuclear burst were high enough, it would probably not cause any
shockwave or heat wave on the ground.

That is really interesting. Right at the end of that video, it looks like you can actually see some type of explosion/source of light right on the ground... though i dont know if that is just a result of something within the camera itself

This is so strange...

Just going to throw this out there (and believe me it is really out there!!)

For one second can you imagine that some government, non in particular (US), was weaponizing space rocks to fling at nations free of guilt and footprints.

What if this was the case? I don't see large meteorites aimed anywhere else on the globe.. or am I missing something?

Food for thought ladies and gentleman!


watch the void.

here is a video that was of an actual power station exploding in Russia in 2012, and when this one occurred everyone was abuzz trying too figure it out then as well until it come out it was a power station. Too me it does look similar but way different colour etc?

Maybe it was something about the atmosphere that made it a different color? That is similar... though it did "flash" where as this sort of started small, got really bright, then diminished...

Someone correct me if i'm wrong but with a sunset dont the orange/red hughes you see come from different compounds within the atmosphere itself? Could the initial source be a "white" light and then the color change due the environment?

If that were the case i would assume that we would see some of that "white" light through the clouds or something, somewhere... idk

Look at 0:33! Two objects leave from the "bright cloud" at the top right corner.

Also there is a boom in the video with the kids if you listen carefully and try to filter out their chatter, it just isn't very loud. And someone said the kids acted like they knew it was coming, filming before the flash, but I think it was just the 'pre' flashes happening then bam the bright one hit. The sky was pulsing in their video before the bright light.

Those two objects are actually reflection flares from the truck in oncoming traffic.

Probably a transformer blew up,,, a really big transformer,,,,

Or its that hockey player Ovechkin playing with explosion.

they said USSR had a satellite killer!
maybe this was a test?
but I would say metor.

There had to be something indicating this was about to happen otherwise how did the folks in the second video know to be filming, they were expecting something. Couldn't have been expecting a meteor, that would be some skills.

If I'm not mistaken both videos are dash cams which is very common in Russia due to insurance frauds they run continuously when driving.
That being the case, we should see a lot more vids of this in the coming days.

a reply to: Shana91aus

Not totally discounting the power station/transformer thing but....

Surely the power company/contractor would of said something by now if it was???

With the smaller light source on the ground at the end it kinda made me think of the ion cannon a la C&C just less visually perfect.

Interesting vids!
I know folks are stating that it cannot be a nuclear test and it very well might not be.

But what about, something new?...
Some new kind of weapon testing? We don't know it all.

Yet a cmall clip of the event.. al thou not too good

Guess it's still a mystery ?
