Also, too close to earth to be sprites. |

Nope, sprites have to do with thunderstorms and last only as long as a lightning flash. |

Don't you think they'd know if there were oil refineries in the area and at least consider that idea? |

kits User ID: 340631 1/4/2008 8:43 AM | | Re: "My Soldiers and I witnessed what I think is some sort of natural phenomenon in the sky over Iraq." | Quote | Take a look at the primary. There is a very bright light, then a streak of dimmer light shines vertically upward and another streak shines downward. I'd say the point of origin is most likely to be dead center of the location where the brightest portion of the light is seen. I vote that whatever is causing the light can be found in the 'core' we see, which I feel is likely to be within our atmosphere.
Seems to be too high up to be oil refineries, and that many burning the stacks at the same time, and within that close of proximity? I don't buy it. Besides, those guys have likely been in Iraq long enough and in that area long enough to be aware of oil refineries cleaning the stacks. AIM:kits56fa2 |

Standard high-speed video can record sprites at 1,000 frames per second (fps), or about 16 times faster than a standard camcorder. But sprites are so transient that they last for only a few frames of even that film, hiding any clues as to how they form. |

indeed they are :)
There are even needed light sources for this effect, very far away on the horizont, but guys were holding the camera too up to see this proof longer.
In the picture i posted, is the source also a light comming from a workplace behind trees. Cause it was checked then.
