Check out this fantastic image which, unless I’m very much mistaken, appears to have captured the exact moment someone was utilizing the very latest in interdimensional portal technology!

Well, it’s a fantastic image anyway :D

Thanks to Clive!

    Just to the east of here you can see some crazy colored orbs in the field.

  2. 2. Lee says:

    It’s Jesus!
    Quick, look busy.

  3. 3. Rich says:

    No, seriously, what could cause an image like this?

    A building skinned in highly reflective glass and a picture taken when the Sun is almost directly overhead?

  4. 4. David says:

    It’s near Amsterdam.

    Clearly the Sattilite is triping out from a being high.

    My guess LSD.

    I want to know what on earth the things that Craig found are!

    Ahh, I love a good Friday Mystery :-D

  6. 6. Phillip says:

    Bill, strange things are afoot in the Netherlands…

  7. 7. Clive says:

    Thanks for accepting my submission! :D

  8. 8. Lars says:

    Perhaps you should merge the categories “wierd” and “Netherlands”…

  9. 9. Julian says:

    In response to what the multicoloured dots are, my guesses are either:

    - very high sheep
    or
    - a glitch from oversaturating the CCD with the interdimensional portal.

    Pink Floyd is back on tour!

  11. 11. Matt says:

    so is bob marley…

  12. 12. Michi Disperso says:

    I think it’s a High energy beam shot from the earth to the satellite for destroy the electronyc system… the coloured orbs are the first consequence of the attack, that image is the last image taken by this satellite…

    I think that somewhere there is a satellite-catcher!!

  13. 13. jobot says:

    Another one!! There’s also one just like this in a small dutch town called Sevenum. Weird stuff is going on in the Netherlands. The coordinates are POINTER 51 24′44.44″ N 51 01′47.47″ E

    jobot, Placemark: I don’t see anything there / Google Earth?

  15. 15. jobot says:

    oops sorry. wrong coordinates. CORRECTION for the interdimensional portal in Sevenum check> POINTER 51.412364 6.029817

  16. 16. Tim says:

    Jobot, you mean here:

    Placemark: Google Maps / Google Earth

    Do you know how to get the Google Maps Link? You click “Show Link” when you have the sight onscreen.

  17. 17. Chris says:

    fond two more!! also in the Netherlands in a small town called Goor 52 14′29.89″ N 6 33′51.51″E

    Lava Pool!

    Would be rather hard to swim in.

  19. 19. Martijn Munneke says:

    I think they’re roof windows.

    But there are more!

    In the city of Groningen there are 2 next to each other:

    53.192918, 6.572383

  20. 20. uberdada says:

    All the shadows in these pictures are very long so the sun must be quite low - perfect anlge to reflect off velux windows, possibly?

  21. 21. esquif says:

    In the last one, look like the interdimentional portal doesn’t work very far.

  22. 22. Clive says:

    The Dutch are further ahead of us technologically than we thought! They ALL have interdimensional portals!

  23. 23. Keith T. says:

    I was thinking a church, because what else would have two shiny spires with perfect sides… No search for “dronten” and “kerk” turns up any listings on Het Kerhoen. Perhaps they are not spires though, but what would they be?

  24. 24. Reinier says:

    I lived at 52 14′28.19” N 6 33′51.87” E until March last year. I know the new resident is a … TRUCK DRIVERRRRR

  25. 25. Frenkieb says:

    There 2 more in Groningen on the appartment buildings next to where I live:

    I use my portal every day. Mostly for beaming from home to work and back.

  27. 27. david says:

    this picture looks cooler when ur high

  28. 28. x says:

    It’s actually on a footpath off Het Korhoen in the village of Dronten, NL

  29. 29. BLR says:

    Im guessing it is a tear in the photo, the effect coming from scanning or sometime during processing

  30. 30. Romanov says:

    In Belgium, we have an interdimensional portal in the Flemish Parliament.

    This portal was installed to allow members of the Parliament to commute in a split of a second, and thus minimizing the travelcosts. It was only after the very expensive construction of the main portal, that they realised that all members needed a second portal at home too.

    In fact, the Parliament has a convex glass roof, so I guess the ‘portal’ is the reflection of the sunlight. Another mystery solved :-(

    “no realy.. it´s just a glass roof” i think they just have the cheap-interimensial port and afraid to come out, but now wurry, the new anty shining portals (ASP23) are on theyre way, been built here > Placemark: Google Maps / Google Earth

  32. 32. Justin says:

    OMG!!!!! firstly has anyone heard of ARGs? Heard of The Receda Cube and the Third Power using as a portal device to get around earth from another world?!!!

  33. 33. Shane says:

    Is a glitch in da MATRIX!

  34. 34. Mike says:

    I figure it’s a hole in the picture or something, cuz it’s dark in the middle of the flashes. Maybe it’s just the light behind from the scanner?

  35. 35. salsa says:

    These look like artifacts of direct, high intensity reflections hitting the satellite’s optics just right. Flares like this are often seen in photographhy when an intense light source is in frame.
