A mysterious light display appearing over Norway last night has left thousands of residents in the north of the country baffled.

Witnesses from Trøndelag to Finnmark compared the amazing sight to anything from a Russian rocket to a meteor or a shock wave - although no one appears to have mentioned UFOs yet.

The phenomenon began when what appeared to be a blue light seemed to soar up from behind a mountain. It stopped mid-air, then began to circulate.

And it just so happens that someone had a camera set up to take a timed exposure of a transient phenomenon...

Is this not the light harkening the imminent arrival of The Chosen One ??

That was just the integrity and self respect of the Nobel Peace Prize committee members fleeing the country in advance of Obama’s arrival to accept his prize.
