For discussion of everything rum and uncanny, from cryptozoology (mysterious or out-of-place animals), UFOs, high strangeness, etc. Following in the footsteps of Charles Fort and all those inspired by him, like the field of anomalistics.

As this community is on Feddit.uk it takes a British approach to things but it needn't be restricted to the UK - if it's weird and unusual it probably has a home here.

Unusual geomagnetic activity could be the source of some lights seen in the sky (and such earthlights are gaining more traction as the amount of charge that can be released from rocks, especially in fault zones, becomes clear) but there doesn't seem much evidence for it here and it sounds more like an advertising gimmick.
