Hi,
I encountered a puzzling phenomenon on a flight from Phoenix to Atlanta
and recorded it on video: http://www.astroshow.com/Puzzle/Puzzle.html
Bright spot on the ground that moved as the plane moved. Spot, aircraft,
and the sun were on the same straight line. Either a diffraction effect
caused
by aircraft's disturbance of the density of the air, simple specular
reflection, or something
else? Nothing I've thought of satisfies me regarding the cause.
Would appreciate thoughts from anyone who might know the cause
or is willing to speculate.
