Pink sky in the Lone Star State.

 

 On Sunday September 15th several residents of Temple Texas began posting images of an odd pink light in the sky.

The light appeared to be a bright  neon pink cloud shining  above the city.

What was it, alien's, swamp gas or possibly the northern lights?.

 The official explanation,..  it was a lettuce farm..

More specifically the growing lights from the farm   reflecting off the clouds.

What residents perceived as a pink-hued light is likely a combination of blue and red light emanating from the greenhouse at Revol Greens, a lettuce farm in Temple. 

The red and blue lighting are specifically designed to help the company's lettuce thrive, according to Revol Greens. 

The farm recently experienced a malfunction with the facility's blackout shades it uses at night, allowing the light to escape, according to a report from KWTX. "Those blackout shades serve multiple purposes for our team, from keeping the light in, to acting as a thermal blanket that helps our growing team better control the climate," Tom Thompson, Revol Greens CRO, told the reporter. 

It's not the first time the pink sky has been spotted over Temple. Back in March, the light appeared over the city when the blackout blinds at the greenhouse briefly parted. The glow from the facility was also previously seen in November 2023.

Similar bright pink lights have also been spotted in Vancouver Canada and Yorkshire UK In October and November of 2023. Both also had the same official explanation, Lights from a grow house/farm.

Do you believe it, or are these odd lights something more?
