			A mysterious spiral of light has appeared in northern Norway one day 
			before President Obama arrives to give his Nobel Peace Prize 
			acceptance speech in Oslo.
 
			  
			The spiral has baffled experts who do not 
			believe it is related to the Aurora Borealis. Speculation that it is 
			a rocket launched by the Russian Northern Fleet has been denied by 
			Russian authorities.  
			  
			Similarly the Norwegian military has claimed no 
			knowledge of any rocket launches in the area. There has been 
			speculation that it may be some exotic weapon system, the opening of 
			a space-time portal, or even UFO activity. Obama’s arrival in Norway 
			on December 10 to give his acceptance speech only adds to the 
			mysterious appearance of the lights.  
			  
			Is it a pure coincidence or is 
			it in some way related to Obama’s upcoming speech?
 The object appeared on the morning of December 9 and has been 
			photographed and filmed by thousands of Norwegians over a wide area 
			ranging from Finnmark in the country’s north to Trondelang in the 
			south. It is a giant spiral of green-blue light that appears 
			directed towards a mountain. According to observers, a giant light 
			spiral appeared and within seconds covered the entire sky.
 
			  
			A 
			green-blue beam of light then shot out from its center.  
			  
			Here is how Totto Eriksen, from Tromso, in northern Norway 
			
			described it. 
				
				I was driving my daughter to school when this light spun and 
			exploded in the sky. We saw it from the Inner Harbour in Tromso. It 
			looked like a rocket that spun around and around - and then went 
			diagonally across the heavens.    
				It looked like the moon was coming 
			over the mountain - but then turned into something totally 
			different. People just stopped and stared on the pier - it was like 
			something from a Hollywood movie. 
			  
			  
			  
			  
			  
			The entire event lasted between two-three minutes before 
			disappearing. Norway’s leading meteorologists are baffled, with most 
			concluding it is some kind of rocket launch that went awry. 
			  
			Knut 
			Jorgen Roed Odegaard, Norway's most celebrated astronomer, said: 
				
				This was seen over an exceptionally large area of the country - in 
			all of north Norway and the Trondelag. My first thought was that it 
			was a fireball meteor - but it lasted far too long. It may have been 
			a missile from Russia - but I can't guarantee that is the answer. I 
			rang the Air Traffic Control tower in Tromse. They said it was over 
			in two minutes.    
				To me, that is far too long for this to be an 
			astronomical phenomenon. This spiral shape is unique. It is 
			definitely not a variation of the aurora borealis - northern lights. 
			Obama’s December 10 Nobel Prize acceptance speech is expected to 
			focus on international cooperation on the removal of nuclear weapons 
			and promoting diplomatic solutions to global problems.  
			  
			Coming nine 
			days after Obama’s announcement of a 30,000 troop surge for 
			Afghanistan, it is expected that he will show his commitment to 
			international diplomacy and cooperation. He may use the opportunity 
			to launch a bold international initiative to achieve this end.
 The appearance of the enormous light spiral in northern Norway may 
			be a sheer coincidence and unrelated to his upcoming speech in Oslo. 
			Alternatively, the mysterious spiral of light may be a sign from an 
			unknown intelligence that Obama’s acceptance speech may be a 
			catalyst for major global changes that lie ahead.
 
			  
			With much 
			speculation that the Obama administration is poised to make some 
			kind of 
			announcement concerning extraterrestrial life soon, the 
			light may be sign for him to boldly go where no U.S. President has 
			gone before.

			Missile Failure Caused by UFO/ET 
			Intervention?

			After first denying any missile test in 
			the White Sea region where mysterious spiral lights could be seen 
			over much of Norway on December 9, Russia one day later announced an 
			embarrassing failure of a new intercontinental ballistic nuclear 
			missile.  
			  
			Russia’s Bulava missile spun out of control during the 
			third stage of a test launch. While Russia did not claim the spiral 
			light was caused by the missile, the announcement nevertheless led 
			to claims that the mystery has been solved. Most analysts 
			confidently proclaimed that the light spiral was caused by the 
			failed rocket launch.  
			  
			The fact that it occurred one day before 
			President Obama’s Nobel Peace Prize acceptance speech where he 
			discussed the abolition of nuclear weapons is viewed as sheer 
			coincidence. However, was the failed missile launch a mere 
			coincidence?  
			  
			There have been a number of occasions where nuclear 
			missile tests have failed due to UFO intervention.  
				
					
					
					Did an 
			extraterrestrial intelligence cause the failure of the Russian 
			rocket in order to generate a spiral of light knowing that it would 
			capture world wide attention during President Obama’s Norway trip?
					
					Did extraterrestrials do so knowing full well that Obama would 
			discuss the abolition of nuclear weapons during his Nobel Peace 
			Prize acceptance speech?  
			On December 10, the Russian Defense Ministry announced a failed 
			launch of its Bulava intercontinental missile by the Dmitry Donskoi 
			nuclear submarine.  
			  
			A 
			
			Defense Ministry spokesperson described what 
			happened after the launch by the submarine that was submerged in the 
			White Sea at the time:  
				
				“It has been established... that the 
			missile's first two stages worked as normal, but there was a 
			technical malfunction at the next, third, stage of the trajectory." 
			This is how 
			
			Phil Plait, creator of the 
			Bad Astronomy website, 
			described how an out of control rocket could have caused the spiral 
			lights.  
				
				Whatever it is being lit up (exhaust, or a leaking payload?) would 
			appear to expand in a spiral like water from a spinning 
			sprinkler-head. The spiral itself is not spinning any more than water 
			from the sprinkler is; that’s an illusion of motion… [A]fter a few 
			moments, a black disk appears to expand in the center of the white 
			spiral, as seen in this picture…    
				That’s exactly what I would expect 
			if whatever is being ejected by the rocket ran out; the arms of the 
			spiral would expand away from the center, leaving black emptiness in 
			the middle.

				So that’s my hypothesis. A rocket got out of control, 
			perhaps losing a stabilizer, and started to spiral.    
				The two spirals, 
			different in shape, size, and color, indicate something happened in 
			the middle of all this (the rocket second stage fired while still 
			spinning, or something else started leaking out), changing the 
			rocket’s direction.    
				Then, when the fuel or whatever ran out, the 
			white spiral began to disappear from the inside out as the material 
			expanded in space. 
			Here’s a video simulation that graphically describes what apparently 
			happened during the failed rocket launch.

			Simulation of possible explanation 
			  
			
			With the Russian announcement and greater detailed study of the 
			light spiral, many articles have emerged 
			ridiculing theories 
			proposing an extraterrestrial factor. It has been simply assumed 
			that the failure was due to the poor track record of the Bulava 
			missile which after all had failed six out of 12 previous tests.
 
			  
			Such 
			dismissals of extraterrestrial involvement, however, do not explore 
			an alternative explanation.  
				
					
					
					Did an 
					
					extraterrestrial intelligence 
			deliberately cause the Russian nuclear missile failure in order to 
			create the resulting light spiral knowing the global impact it would 
			have on the day of Obama’s Nobel Peace Prize acceptance speech? 
					
					
					Furthermore did extraterrestrials do so in order to highlight and 
			even endorse the nuclear disarmament that was a critical component 
			of Obama’s acceptance speech? 
			Here is what 
			
			Obama had to say 
			
			about nuclear weapons in Oslo:  
				
				The world may no longer shudder at the prospect of war between two 
			nuclear superpowers, but proliferation may increase the risk of 
			catastrophe. Terrorism has long been a tactic, but modern technology 
			allows a few small men with outsized rage to murder innocents on a 
			horrific scale....    
				One urgent example is the effort to prevent the 
			spread of nuclear weapons, and to seek a world without them. In the 
			middle of the last century, nations agreed to be bound by a treaty 
			whose bargain is clear: All will have access to peaceful nuclear 
			power; those without nuclear weapons will forsake them; and those 
			with nuclear weapons will work towards disarmament.    
				I am committed 
			to upholding this treaty. It is a centerpiece of my foreign policy. 
			And I'm working with President Medvedev to reduce America and 
			Russia's nuclear stockpiles....   
				Those who seek peace cannot stand 
			idly by as nations arm themselves for nuclear war. 
			There have been a number of occasions where UFOs have deliberately 
			interfered with nuclear missile launches to cause their failure.  
			  
			One 
			incident occurred at Big Sur California in 1964. Professor Robert 
			Jacobs then served as a Lieutenant with the U.S. Air Force and was 
			stationed at Vandenberg Air Force base. He was responsible for 
			filming the test of an Atlas missile.  
			  
			He 
			
			described the incident as 
			follows:  
				
				[W]e were testing ballistic missiles that were to deliver nuclear 
			weapons on target... my duty [was] to supervise the instrumentation 
			photography of every missile that went down in that western test 
			range... and into the frame came something else. It flew into the 
			frame and shot a beam of light at the warhead.    
				Now remember, all 
			this stuff is flying at several thousand miles an hour. So this 
			thing [UFO] fires a beam of light at the warhead, hits it and then 
			it [the UFO] moves to the other side and fires another beam of 
			light, then moves again and fires another beam of light, then goes 
			down and fires another beam of light, and then flies out the way it 
			came in. And the warhead tumbles out of space.    
				The object, the 
			points of light that we saw, the warhead and so forth, were 
			traveling through subspace about 60 miles straight up. And they were 
			going somewhere in the neighborhood of 11,000 to 14,000 miles an 
			hour when this UFO caught up to them, flew in, flew around them, and 
			flew back out.  
			Jacobs testimony has been confirmed by another Air Force officer who 
			was present at the debriefing where Jacobs was commanded to silence.
 Other military whistleblowers have emerged to describe a number of 
			UFO/extraterrestrial interventions that have caused nuclear missile 
			failures during flight. Colonel Ross Dedrickson (ret.) served with 
			the US Air Force and Atomic Energy Commission.
 
			  
			
			
			He claimed: 
				
				After retiring from the Air Force I joined the Boeing company and 
			was responsible for accounting for all of the nuclear fleet of 
			Minuteman missiles. In this incident they actually photographed the 
			UFO following the missile as it climbed into space and, shining a 
			beam on it, neutralized the missile.    
				I also learned of a number of 
			incidents which happened, a couple of nuclear weapons sent into 
			space were destroyed by the extraterrestrials…. the idea of any 
			explosion in space by any Earth government was not acceptable to the 
			extraterrestrials, and that has been demonstrated over and over. 
			Other military witnesses have emerged explaining how nuclear missile 
			facilities have been interfered with by UFOs, and this has been 
			covered up on national security grounds.
 In conclusion, Russia’s admission that a nuclear missile test has 
			failed at the same time as the mysterious light spiral appeared over 
			Norway has satisfied most analysts over what happened. The link to 
			extraterrestrials and to Obama’s speech has been consequently 
			dismissed out of hand, and even ridiculed.
 
			  
			However, most analysts 
			are simply not aware of prior occasions where nuclear missiles have 
			failed due to UFO/extraterrestrial intervention. Nor has any 
			consideration been given to a possible link to Obama’s speech where 
			he explicitly called for nuclear disarmament.  
			  
			Given the past history 
			of extraterrestrial intervention, it is very possible that the 
			mysterious light spiral over Norway was deliberately caused by 
			extraterrestrials that interfered with Russia’s testing of its 
			newest nuclear missile.  
			  
			The goal was twofold:
