An eyewitness from the city of Gehlen writes:

I went out to close the doors when I noticed a clear evening, but when I looked up at the sky, I saw several rays of light converging in one place, one of which was thicker than the others. The rays came from a place between east and south. 

I took a picture with my phone's night camera where you can see the strongest beam. (rotate the phone's semitone slightly higher to see the beam in the lower-right corner of the photo)

In the opinion of ufomeldpunt.nl this is advertising coverage:

Rays of light for the presentation of the Future Vision 2030 Sittard-Geleen project. To draw attention to the vision of the future, the so-called windows of the future were installed in thirteen places of the municipality. They are indicated by light rays.

Original news

GELEEN, LB — Ik liep naar buiten om de deuren te sluiten toen ik opmerkte dat het een heldere avond was, maar toen ik naar de lucht keek zag ik meerdere lichtstralen die allemaal samen kwamen op een plek, waarvan een van de stralen dikker was dan de rest. De stralen kwamen vanuit tussen het oosten en het zuiden. Ik heb met de nachtcamera van mijn telefoon een foto genomen waarop je de sterkste straal kunt zien. (zet de halderheid van je telefoon wat hoger om de straal rechts onder in de foto te zien)

Promotionele verlichting

Lichtbundels voor de presentatie van het project Toekomstvisie 2030 Sittard-Geleen. Om aandacht voor de toekomstvisie te vragen zijn op een dertiental plekken in de gemeente zogenaamde Toekomstvensters geplaatst. Deze zijn aangegeven met lichtbundels.

Hypotheses

List of versions containing features matching the eyewitness descriptions or material evidence

Light sources on clouds

Lasers, searchlights, car headlights and other light sources of sufficient power can form a column of light in a dusty or foggy atmosphere, various patterns on low clouds, fog or haze. Also, the rays can highlight parts of the cloud, objects or birds, giving them bizarre shapes.

Searchlights can shine with one beam, several. They can be stationary, move, and also form spinning carousels on the clouds, which can change shape and color.

It often seems that the light source is located at the point where the beam hits the cloud, and not vice versa.

Events

Rocket launches (from space.skyrocket.de)

  • Site: Jiuquan Space Center, Inner Mongolia (China) Vehicle: CZ-4C Payload: Gaofen 12-02
