Yesterday, several people asked in the different social media sites why a mystical blue light appeared over Budapest. Some even suggested it was an extraterrestrial starship, but the explanation is simple.
UFO, flying saucer?
You may check out some pretty good photos of the strange phenomenon in THIS article from the Hungarian news outlet hvg.hu. Some said the blue light resembled a “flying saucer”. But the explanation is simple: the source of the blue light was the Friday night light show in Budapest’s Biodome.
Furthermore, there was a nimbostratus cloud over Budapest. That is a “multilevel, amorphous, nearly uniform, and often dark-grey cloud that usually produces continuous rain, snow, or sleet, but no lightning or thunder.”
Its bottom flew only 1,200 metres over the city. Thus, it could reflect the Biodome’s three reflectors emitting blue light.
