A curious pillar, or column, rising from rainbow-hued clouds enchanted the skies above Ubon Ratchathani, Thailand capturing the attention and imaginations of residents alike.
“What’s this pillar? October 21, at 5.35pm on Ubon Khueang Nai Road, I saw the beautiful, colorful sky. Yet, I inadvertently snapped this odd pillar with my camera. It wasn’t visible to the naked eye. What kind of light beam is this? I decided to share it for everyone to see.”
“If this photo is unaltered, we can start to analyze it. The rainbow-tinted clouds are a natural spectacle known as ‘cloud iridescence,’ which happens when sunlight interacts with ice crystals, creating a vibrant display.”
Despite multiple sightings and shared images confirming cloud iridescence, the mysterious black pillar remains unsolved. The anomaly was not visible to the naked eye, only appearing in the camera’s capture
Jessada ventured further, suggesting the black shadow could be a “distrail,” the lesser-known cousin of “contrails”—those jetliner trails often mistaken for missile streaks. A distrail emerges when aircraft heat and turbulence vaporize ice crystals in a cloud, leaving a visible gap.
“If it were a distrail, it should have been visible to the naked eye. The mystery of this pillar persists. Hopefully, it isn’t a trick of photo editing or a camera glitch.”
As experts and the public remain captivated, the mystery continues to send ripples through conversations, leaving all pondering whether it’s a rare natural marvel, an elaborate visual illusion, or something wholly unforeseen.
