    Spiral Strange
AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers around a phenomenon that could be an asteroid or comet, highlighted by a notable spiral shape. References to the Bulava missile test from 2009 are made, suggesting a possible connection to the observed spiral. Observers note that if it wasn't related to the missile test, the projection appeared to move from the right to the upper left-center of the view. The size of the spiral is emphasized, indicating it was significant even for a projection. Additional context is provided through links to related news articles and Wikipedia entries.

Could be an asteroid or comet - the spiral thing is pretty cool.

If it wasn't the Russian missile test it also appeared to be a projection from right to upper left-centre. Although, it was a fair size even for a projection.
