NASA Causes UFO Panic Over Norway and Sweden

• When: April 5th, 2019
• Where: Sweden and Norway
• What: Bizarre light show; Identified as chemical clouds put into the atmosphere by NASA rockets

If you were in Sweden or Norway a couple of nights ago, you saw more than just the beautiful Northern Lights - but an unexpected and extreme "natural" fireworks show! And you may have even thought aliens were invading! According to Forbes and other news outlets, however, NASA and the Andøya Space Center were just doing an experiment. They apparently sent two rockets up into the Northern Lights, releasing a metallic powder or gas intended to measure and "investigate" the atmosphere.

What do you think of this recent news story? Do you think that aliens really did visit the Lapland, and this is just a convenient cover story? Do you think that this is a reckless experiment for NASA to do (polluting the air, affecting the way the Northern Lights appear, etc.).
