Rosvick doesn’t think it’s anything astronomy related. "With all the lightning activity the sky was pretty bright and I doubt it would have been a meteor, even though the Perseids were going on," said associate professor Dr. The question was put to a representative of the Department of Physical Sciences at Thompson Rivers University. "Is there a glitch going on with my phone? Is there something going on?" she wondered. She’s baffled by what the anomaly could be. Meanwhile, a raindrop on the lens of the phone itself would also likely be much larger on the final image, Brown says. "I was like, how did I not notice that? I was focused on hitting this button on my phone when I probably should have been looking at the mountain," she said.īrown was outside her vehicle near a bench along the Halston Bridge overlooking the North Thompson River at the time, so a raindrop on a windshield can be discounted. She noticed the object in her video when she got home later and was checking images before deleting them. It has the appearance of perhaps a meteorite coming down in the distance, but the very end of the clip shows the mystery light fall in front of the mountain. "I was completely shocked when I saw that clip and I was 'Oh my god what did I just record? What just happened?' I couldn’t sleep," said Brown.Īt the very end of one of the 20 or so clips she recorded, Brown appears to have captured an object trailing downwards out of the sky towards Paul Mountain. She was recording the storm but didn’t realize until afterwards that she appears to have caught something strange. Wendy Brown was testing out her new Galaxy cellphone, and was using a lightning storm to do it.īrown was testing a feature called "Single Take" on the phone, which takes photos or video images in 10-second bursts. A Kamloops, B.C., woman is hoping the public can help her solve a mystery about something strange she caught on camera back in early August.
