After spotting a green laser beaming into the sky, a lot of people were left scratching their heads - but some think they’ve worked out exactly what has been happening.

Posting on Reddit, user Apenerd shared a picture of the great beam into the night sky on July 23. He didn’t explain at what time or what location he took the picture, however.

He captioned the post: “Every night this light/laser comes from out of nowhere and appears to be thousands of miles long.” The post so far has over 34,000 upvotes and has really got people talking.

He even claimed that he drove closer to the beams source and concluded it was none other than Leonardo DiCaprio to blame.

    I wonder if lemmy will ever get big enough that it will be considered “reporting” just filling pages with our comments on something

      It’s a sad state that most articles I see are entirely based around something somebody has posted on X (formerly Twitter) or Reddit. Occasionally a tech publication will have a report on something posted on Mastodon.

      Apparently being a journalist these days just means scrolling through social media.
