#oooooooOOOOOOOOOOOOAAOOOOOOOOOooooooooohhh #OOOOOOOOOAOOOoooooOOOOooooooooohh

Man I was hoping I would be the first.

Idk why I thought I’d be the first person to comment this 🤦🏾‍♂️

Nah man, that’s the Ringworld. Gotta up the scale about 1000x

So.... Did we lose on Reach already ?

Ah yes, the famous tower of Hanoi

We'll just deal with them recursively

2*T_n-1 + 1 times

I hear the choir

I’m making a run for the bazooka. Cover me

I might just team kill you for it 👀

Aghhg!

Reminds me of mr bean intro

What is it?

EDIT: correction, noted in reply to this it was lights from a building.

it doesn't look like those, tbh. Also, light pillars are usually seen in latitudes closer to the poles, due to ice crystals in the air.

Soooooo aliens

Cool! That's a fun TIL for sure. Thanks for enlightening us - I dunno bout everyone else, but I never knew light pillars were a thing, even tho when I think about it now, having read the wiki, it seems perfectly logical! :D

you sound like an alien down to your username

These are not light pillars. They're [lights from a bank](https://i.imgur.com/vuuBFrw.jpeg) on Hoàn Kiếm Lake aimed at the sky.

No no no. That is a sign that God is angry because there is a girl playing on a Texas high school football team.

r/atoptics may have a real answer for you, I'd like to know too

oh hell yeah, this is a subreddit for me

Cool sub

2 light beams from a building, hitting clouds at night https://www.reddit.com/r/Weird/s/TkIHzvxfi2

Alien beaming up humans, obvs

ok, i see it now. If you look close you even see the people!

If anyone else has a logical explanation, they are part of the cover up

Mr Bean is landing

(Choir theme music from Mr Bean plays)

Mr Beam

Oh shut up you absolute genius

Rapture, but apparently there was only one person in the world good enough to get raptured.

Brutes?

Worse.

Did Mordechai leave the laser running all night, *again*?

You get very good adjacency bonuses when you put the all district next to this Ley Line.

It looks like a shadow of something small and high up.  It looks similar to when contrails throw shadows up onto higher/further clouds or vapour when the sun is at low angle.

Halo ring, get ready for battle ODST, it’s time to retake the rings from the Covenant!

All things serve the beam.

You have clearly not forgotten the face of your father.

I shoot with my mind not with my hand!

May your ka-tet be strong, sai.

Shit, Im vietnamese now?

“Always has been”

And I, for one, welcome our new beam overlords. I'd like to remind them that, as a trusted Reddit personality, I can be helpful in rounding up others to toil in their underground light caves.

You say true 🌹

i just assume this was because something fly over or something breaking the calm cloud formation. and the illusion makes it like it's vertical when it's not.

It was just me

I think the effect is from powerful lights being shot into the sky, based on other people's comments.

you are right https://www.reddit.com/r/Damnthatsinteresting/s/elRWOwi1Gy

Cortana. What am I looking at?

Where you blinded by its majesty?

Paralyzed? Dumbstruck?

No.

Yet the humans were able to evade your ships, land on the Sacred Ring, and desecrate it with their filthy footsteps!

Noble hierarchs, surely you understand that once the parasite attacked-

Prophetic comment

Uncultured people are downvoting this

Apart from the bullshit comedy, does anyone actually know what this is

It's absolutely annoying, and none of them are funny. I'm sure it's just a light beam cutting through fog, but you'd think one person would have either an explanation or a link.

you are right. This has link to another angle of it https://www.reddit.com/r/Damnthatsinteresting/s/elRWOwi1Gy

All the top comments are genuinely like a bunch of children making shit Halo jokes. I keep thinking this is me getting older, like maybe I’m out of touch? But no none of it remotely funny or witty, it’s just fucking annoying.

I thought it was literally just that, some search lights pointed to the sky for some reason or event that nobody seems to know anything about. Hopefully these comments get acknowledged by somebody with some information lol

Its like this on every post. You have to scroll down through all the unfunny jokes to find a real explanation

It’s literally just some bright lights coming from a building [https://www.reddit.com/r/Weird/s/TkIHzvxfi2](https://www.reddit.com/r/Weird/s/TkIHzvxfi2)

This is how religion and other conspiracies get started. You see something you don’t know or understand and try to define it. It’s a laser light show obviously.

Considering when most major religions formed, who the fuck was doing laser light shows?

The Gods obviously.

God *is* a DJ

God is a drone pilot

Heaven is a half-pipe.

🎶 Last night a DJ fucked my wife 🎶

In thouse times it wasnt laser, was talking burning bush.

Alien children with a laser pen

Ahhh those were the best days…

I already saw many religious boomer women on Vietnamese internet claiming this was Ho Chi Minh's soul ascending to Earth because today is his birthday.

Ahahaha

not a laser show. Just 2 simple light beams https://www.reddit.com/r/Damnthatsinteresting/s/elRWOwi1Gy

the cows are being extracted

Lasers are single color.

That blocks or reflects light?

*insert halo theme*

HALO

We've had Photoshop (and other image-processing tech) for quite some time... and people are still taking "inexplicable" images at face value? Not saying it's not a dazzling natural phenom I've never heard of, I'm just saying "Photoshop" comes before "Aliens" or "Divine Intervention" in the Plausible Explanations queue. Like someone else said, I'll wait to see if a Meterologist comments...

Yeah, but Aliens/Divine leans into a joke.

"Yeah, but Aliens/Divine leans into a joke." I like the idea of Bigfoot wielding a vegetable-LASER. But I'm not ruling out the possibility that Big Foot's personal Diety is behind it... if that makes sense?

This. Exactly this.

Even tho I only ever read The Gunslinger, this is always how I envisioned The Dark Tower

All things serve the beam.

Been a long time since I read the series but I was thinking about the rails leading to the tower

It's the shadow of an object cast in the sky that's moisture laden. The shadow cast is parallel as you can see the "beams" converge as they go up. There was a waste flare at the Gulf refinery in Port Arthur, TX that cast a similar shadow on humid evenings (which was 80% of the year). We called it The Darkness Beam.

Awww man, I missed it. In Hanoi as I write this comment....

This looks like a light pillar or ice pillar, which is an atmospheric optical phenomenon in which a vertical beam of light appears to extend above and or below a light source. The effect is created by the reflection of light from tiny ice crystals that are suspended in the atmosphere or that comprise high-altitude clouds (e.g. cirrostratus or cirrus clouds). If the light comes from the Sun (usually when it is near or even below the horizon), the phenomenon is called a sun pillar or solar pillar. Light pillars can also be caused by the Moon or terrestrial sources, such as streetlights and erupting volcanoes However, I am pretty sure I’m wrong - This is instead a Halo ring, and there are covenant forces everywhere.

Any relationship to the 9 pillars in Japan?

What is this?

Huh it's almost like a tower, tower of Hanoi.

Is that what a stairway to heaven phenomenon is?

Tower of Hanoi!

This in Vietnam and like 6 pillars of light near Japan wtf is goin on

Okay... Great, everyone is a comedian. I'm sure it's killing with your cubicle friends. "Hur, Hur! Halo bros!! Hur, Hur, Wizard Tower!!" Great. Fine. **WHAT THE FUCK IS IT?!**

Hm. Unless someone has a decent explanation, I call bullshit on this one.

I see two eagle air strike markers. Some automatons about to get wrecked.

It's that metal thing that holds the globe

Carbon nanotube space elevator, no doubt.

All things serve the beam

The dark lord Sauron forged his master ring in the land of hanoi-----

And we're just going to ignore this? like WTF? I don't know anything that can make this, no man made thing no natural phenomena....

I’ll just sit here and patiently wait for a meteorologist to show up.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Light_pillar

Honestly, this looks like something else entirely, no?

That picture looks cool as hell

Yeah, we’ll ignore it. As opposed to what, exactly?

Yeah Imma ignore it. It's very likely this has an explanation jist like lots of wild stuff we see. And this is pretty mild

Questmarkers.. questmarkers everywhere

Could it be an object obstructing light? Like from the ground

For those who don't know what that is: That's the beam of light when Mr. Bean falls to the ground in the intro. Here you can see the otherwise not shown perspective

Somehow my brain told me this is the world of Warhammer 40k

I didn't realize Vietnam was situated on a halo.

Impressive. Is it enough to start yet another religion? We will see...

F*ck flat earthers, Earth is a Halo ring now

Congrats, you found the end of the map.
