Bright lights caused by a rare natural phenomenon lit up the night sky after New Zealand was hit by a 7.5 magnitude earthquake.
The incommon occurrence was captured by Ayman Aljoj as the tremors shook outside his home in Wellington just after midnight on Sunday November 12.
An aurora-like burst of light appeared in the pitch black sky, created by vertical faults allowing stress-induced electrical currents to flow rapidly to the surface.
Ayman said: ''I was very scared, as I thought it was something big that struck the earth, like another planet or a star.'' ''I couldn't figure out the relationship between the ground shaking under my feet and the sky up above. All I was able to remember and ask for help from is God.''
Seismologists aren't in agreement about the causes of the hotly-debated phenomenon - called earthquake lights or, sometimes, earthquake lightning.
A swarm of earthquakes that rattled the Salton Sea area earlier this week has increased the probability of a major quake hitting Southern California.
The California Office of Emergency Services (OES) issued an earthquake advisory warning residents and officials in Ventura, San Diego, San Bernardino, Riverside, Orange, Los Angeles, Kern and Imperial counties that there was a greater possibility of a major earthquake through Oct. 7.
More than 140 seismic events have been recorded near Bombay Beach beginning Monday ranging from magnitude 1.4 to 4.3, according to U.S. Geological Services (USGS) seismologists.
Scientists say some of the cross-faults are positioned to potentially add stress to the San Andreas fault system when they rupture.
They call it now the San Isidro fault and it has started openning up suddenly after the M7.8 earthquake that hit Ecuador on April 16, 2016. This giant Earth crack has already swallowed up about 116 hectares of land, destroyed a farm and is threatening farmers. Officials are preoccupied!
Large cracks and holes have already swallowed more than 150 hectares of fields and destroyed an entire farm with about 70 heads of cattle, and chickens and some houses threatening farmers' lifes. The main event occurred suddenly in a loud boom.
Farmer Gonzalo was at home with his wife his daughter , 5 years, and his nephew when the house started falling apart. Then, outside, they were surrounded by holes and cracks. They were able to save about 20 calves and cows from the armageddon. After the collapse, the family memberswere completely isolated during 4 days, like trapped on an island. Heavy rains and an overflowing river started surrounding them. Help finally came after five days.
While millions of Americans are still regularly ridiculed by those who are either not yet aware of chemtrails, weather modification and weather warfare, now the MIMIC data from April 21 has shown another huge wave anomaly and this time the anomaly covers New York and the upper East coast.
Proof of massive earthquake activity cover-up, data being censored globally
The Japan Meteorological Agency has stopped announcing the probability of aftershocks in Kumamoto Prefecture because past occurences are not providing the guide they did before, according to an agency official.
The decision to stop announcing estimates is unusual, since the JMA has always released probabilities, with the exception of earthquake swarms.
Aftershock probabilities are usually calculated based on data compiled from past cases, like those indicating the downward trend in the frequency of aftershocks. The JMA would tipically make announcements such as, ''Over the next three days, there is a probability of aftershocks measuring lower 5 or higher on the Japanese seismic intensity scale of 7''.
Add to this the fact that Major Earthquake Tracking sites like USGS Are Severely Downgrading or not even Listing Earthquakes from around the globe. You start to see we have a big problem. The ones responsible for letting us know whats going on, are keeping information from us on a global scale.
One thing is for sure, we are experiencing a global uptick in Quake activity and we are being left in the dark on data that counts!
Russia prepares for catastrophic earthquake, warns America is in worst danger - Keshe's warnings
A stunning new Ministry of Defense (MoD) report circulating in the Kremlin today states that President Putin has authorized the immediate redeployment of troops in the Eastern Military District (EMD) in preparation for what could be a series of massive earthquakes and tsunamis to hit the Kamchatka Peninsula within the next fortnight - and further warns that the United States - Canada - Alaska nourthwestern Pacific Ocean region may be in even more danger than Russia.
If you are not familiar with the Ring of Fire, it is an area roughly shaped like a horseshoe that runs along the outer perimeter of the Pacific Ocean. Approximately 90 percent of all earthquakes and approximately 75 percent of all volcanic eruptions occur along the Ring of Fire. Just within the last two weeks, we have witnessed 16 earthquakes of at least magnitude 6.0.
This violent shaking along the Ring of Fire seems to continue a progression of major disasters that began back during the beginning of April. For whatever reason, our planet suddenly seems to be waking up.
It now appears that on April 5, 2016, something weird happened just before the series of strong earthquakes.
The MIMIC (Microwave Analysis of Total Precipitable Water) data has shown very large ''anomalies'' presumed (microwave?) energy from an unknown source covering the entire globe on April 5 and again on April 14, 2016.
Scientist have raised the alarm that the unusual number of quakes occuring at the moment could be a precursor to ''the big one'' - indicating that a cataclysmic maga-quake might be on its way soon.
The strange foam was spotted in the southern Japanese city of Fukuoka, around 90km from the epicentre of the earthquake, according to The Independent website.
An unexplained carpet of foamy bubbles filled streets in the centre of the southern Japanese city of Fukuoka in the early hours of Saturday morning - shortly after tremors from a devastating earthquake of magnitude 7.3 shook the town.
Twitter users posted pictures of the mysterious foam, with one calling it ''disgusting''.
