Yes, you’d have to be above the Arctic circle. Search “midnight sun timelapse” images, and you’ll find lots of examples. It is not actually a straight line, but moving on a curve. At this level of zoom, the curve is not apparent
Yeah idk, I think it’d happen near the solstice at ‘night’ when sun doesn’t really set but yeah I guess it’d never be perfectly horizontal and I don’t live in the Arctic circle myself so have never seen it. Maybe it’s all a big hoax, who can say
I couldn’t find the exact source, but it looks much more like multiple exposures than anything else. For example, it is entirely the wrong shape, distance, and number to be sun dogs.
I found a few sources saying it’s an extreme example of a sun dog, and a video, which I suppose could be AI. Another, mentioning two whole suns in Russia.
Sun dogs happen at a specific angle and result in up to three bright spots. There are 4 lights. They are spaced unevenly and far too close together. There is no distortion and there is a cloud in front of the rightmost image. This is a timelapse of four pictures. The “video” is just the still image with motion effects added.
Is there anyone here who doesn’t think this is obviously a timelapse (of the very cool phenomenon of the sun moving horizontally)?
Where in the world would you get that phenomenon
Alaska, it says in the post
Well yes but imagine if this was real, where could you possible get a picture like this
Well the sun will move horizontal to the horizon near the Arctic circle during summer. So… I mean, still Alaska
I’m from just about the arctic circle and it doesn’t really look like that. I think.
Maybe if you go above the polar circle

Guess the only remaining explanation is aliens 🤔
Yes this would make sense
I assume you’re joking since the caption says Alaska, but… Alaska (for one).
John Travolta’s house?
I don’t think it’s a time lapse. I think it’s neat and that’s about it.
Yes. Because I googled it.
