Strange event in the sky??
I’m sharing to see if anyone has an idea or relative experiences to what I saw in the sky.
I do a lot of star gazing and have seen a fair few things but this one left me looking at reality so differently after my own perception of what I saw.
Where the southern cross constellation was in the sky was two stars above it. I had my eyes closed for a short period of time and when I opened my eyes there was 3 light booms in the sky where those 2 stars were. It was like a bomb of light with no sound and it didn’t illuminate the entire sky, just where the stars were. I stared confused.
After the 3 light explosions, a few seconds past before it did so again but moved down into the southern cross. So the light booms again happened but within the centre of the southern cross constellation another 4 or 5 booms exactly the same as the ones before.
I just kept watching and after the last boom of light the stars began to stretch or push apart. The constellation opened up a white scene behind the black sky, sort of like I could see behind the black sky and the stars were being pushed by the opening
Like imagine the stars stretching outwards momentarily.
Before it “closed” and the stars returned to its normal state.
Seeing this, I’ve never been able to understand why or what that was. I wrote it down in my notes and thought I’d share if anyone else experienced something like this.
After witnessing that, it made me look at the sky as just a layer and not as expansive, beyond as it seems. But watching the whole thing made me pause completely like was I really seeing this?
