Northern Norway experienced an unlikely light show last December 9, before 8am. The sky was lit by a spiral light that lasted for 10 to 12 minutes before it disappeared completely. Speculations started coming out: firstly, it is a UFO, and secondly, that it is a failed missile launch. Earlier new evidences came out that answered the queries of everyone especially the Norwegians who saw it: the said spiral lighting was from a Russian Missile Test Launch that failed.

The Bulava missile was test-fired the same day from the Dmitry Donskoi submarine in the White Sea. The said test, however, failed at the third stage. Background check on the navy’s reaction, it can be noted that during the investigation regarding the spiral light, the Russian navy already denied news of the missile test fire; the denial came after the news came out.

Evidence presented today was two videos: first of yet another spiral light display which appeared in over Norway yesterday caused by a failed missile test launched; and second was a 3D simulation of what could happen if the said missile test launch would fail. This was put together by British engineer Doug Ellison.    

Background check on how the mystery started came about when a blue light was seen to soar up from behind a mountain. It then stopped in mid air and began to move in circles thus creating the spiral which seconds later covered the sky which lasted for 10 to 12 minutes. Those who have seen it described it as a big fireball that spun around thus creating the spiral.

Truls Lynne Hansen from the Tromso Geophysical Observatory agreed to the claims of the light’s origin; may really be from a missile test launch failure.    Earlier part of the day, the military took back their statement thus confirming that the lights were indeed from the failed launch test from the White Sea.

To further end speculations, air traffic control at Tromso also explained that the time duration in which the light was visible was too far to be an astronomical phenomenon.

In doing a background check on the ages of persons during old ages, the bible has given us information that people have the potential of living over a hundred years and more so than that. Living for a long time at present seems like only for a lucky few although it is obvious that they are weaker compared to how ancient scripts have described the old ones. These are due to the food we presently eat, the environment we live in, and the stress that every day brings.

BBC News, last October 9, 2009, released a story about the quest to stop aging after 50 years of age. The said age is the start when the body tends to feel ailments and bones become weaker. Their aim to stop the clock for people is to give them new inner parts like bones and organs that may keep them younger—plus the fact that it would keep also rebuild on its own (solving the problem with transplant rejection). This idea may be similar to the one in Bicentennial man where a humanoid invented organs to help in medical transplant instead of wanting to have a lasting life).

Ideas of regaining a lasting life, especially that of keeping the younger look compared to the age may be one of the many wants man is aiming for. Youth has always been associated with strength both of physical and mental. The story presented by BBC manifests the ideas presented in some of the Sci Fi stories that today’s technological era gives where replacing or even regenerating body parts to regain the look and strength is done medically, the fairytales that are usually told in bedtime stories gives us this idea through magic amulets that rejuvenates beauty and power or the very famous fountain of youth which brings back youthfulness once a person drink its waters.

The ideas of getting back at age from the wrinkles and brittleness that time gives is a hopeful idea to live longer and better. One reason is the fear of death. Another reason is the want to do more things mainly because they enjoy life. Unfortunately the want to live longer and stay young is being thwarted by man’s hardheadedness in following what should be observed: proper diet and clean living.

If we try to think back on ancient years, even before the time of Christ, men never had sodas to drink nor preserved foods to eat. They don’t have cars and factories that contribute to air pollution and the technology has not kept us inside the house where we just sit and not move much. In other words, life back then was pretty healthier.

There may be no medical discoveries that help cure illnesses, then again there are no reason for such ailments, like what we have presently, come about. This is but another fact that made life longer those days. Pollution bring about a lot of problems in health, even the food we eat produces poison and allergens. The body is kept strong with good and healthy food not to mention the way of labor was manual, even with their travels; people walk instead of riding cars while computers and vacuum cleaners are not used to do documents or keep the place clean.

What keeps youthfulness for keeps is healthy lifestyle: Eating a balance diet of fruits, vegetable and lean meat without the preservatives and exercise. We have depended so much on technology that even kids prefer to stay indoors in front of the television or play games with computers. The result of background check in man’s present way of living is definitely a big impact on keeping our lives, even over eighty. This is the fact brought to us by our want to stay young and to live long.
