sight of sky lights explained ?

[Paf]

I wonder if, depending on the meteo, the lightenings seen by the Mansi could have been sprites or halo ?

They're forming over large clouds, and it seems the weather was quite bad the morning before. The big clouds would have been a bit further away, with a clear sky above Dyatlov pass : favorable condition for a sight I think.

It seem there was 2 people outside ("on duty" ? for a pee ? Whatever.) They would have call everybody out ( not being afraid, but just amazed.), with no shoes and no gear. They planned to stay close to the tent, but something else then happen.
Those lights could have been mistaken by KGB for aliens ; thus explaining the disparition of 9 picture from Zolotaryov's camera, and maybe even the fact he was having a different camera. (It may just have been the best for night picture ?)

It does not explain more than just the light sights (maybe some pictures ?), but that's a point nobody seems to look at ! :)

No. Definitely not Sprites and Halo. They dont form circular objects that move around at great distances and speeds and can be observed for some time.

We dont even know  if the pictures were taken there, on that night.. Seems one of them has grass in the view.. How would that be?
