A strange jellyfish-shaped object spotted hanging in the sky over Norway, may have been caused by light from the aurora being bounced off a space satellite, experts say.


The mysterious phenomenon was photographed last week.Mr Mikalsen told the Mail Online: 'I have never seen an object like this before, and I am eager to find an explanation to the phenomenon.' Mr Mikalsen said he was keen to find out what caused the phenomenon in the top right of his picture.
