Strange Noises Heard Around The World Could Have Scientific Explanation

Dan Koelsch, January 27, 2012January 27, 2012

Earlier this week, we reported on a phenomenon sweeping the Internet in which strange noises were heard around the world. These roars/groans from the sky are a bit frightening, which may have contributed to videos of the occurance flooding YouTube (along with many hoaxes). While we considered the idea that the sounds were some kind of marketing ploy, we now have at least one scientific explanation that might resolve this issue. Find out after the jump.

I was surfing YouTube last night when I found the video below. It’s a news report from Canadian channel CTV that talks about the sounds.

The professor in the clip explains that the sounds are coming from the Aurora Borealis (aka the Northern Lights) causing electromagnetic noise within nearby environmental antennas. It sounds a bit like the Roswell weather ballon explanation to me, especially since these noises have not been heard before (at least not recently, since this is the first time the Internet has been up in arms about it). What do you think? Is this a good explanation?

    Jesus is coming people. The word of God (the Bible) says that there wold be strange things happening in the skies. So look out all you who don’t believe in God – Read the Bible so you can know him and understand what he is about to do in this world. This was you won’t freak out and believe the lies of man and science. God is awesome and hes about to show his awesome power get redy – choose Jesus!.

    anything makes more sense than an old man in the sky  molding people out of clay and ribs and playing ant farm with them (might as well worship the mighty easter bunny), i don’t have an explanation for the strange sounds and i’ll admit it was a little creepy at first but i stick with science, the universe is always changing, and humans can’t explain a lot of things yet. maybe if religion would just step aside and let humans evolve we’d be able to find the answers, stop preventing the progress of humanity for pete’s sake, stop being ignorant, read a book, and stop giving your love away to imaginary beings, real people, on earth need it more.

    Tool, perhaps you should try to read the whole book instead of cherry picking your facts, but I guess I should be thankful as your kind will continue to keep jobs in my future career in psychology =D

    that noise must have traveled pretty far al the way to the Netherlands and back in time also because we heard it last year 2011.

    we must be retard according to you but you must be a sheep.
    Just because you didnt hear it doesnt mean its fake.
    And the explenation about the sound you have giving with the article doesnt do it because it said its about the sounds on 10 and 11 januari and the sounds that been heard has been occuring since august 2011 until now so there goes the theory.
    But you can go back to sleep.

    I disagree.  Psychology is in no way responsible for these strange noises heard in the skies of Canada.  Even if the electromagnetic disturbances from cell phones to the Aurora Borealis were in fact affecting one’s overall nature, I doubt that it would be solely responsible for said cherry-picking.
