Mekong mystery
Question: My wife saw a puzzling sight in October 1994, in the Mekong River
near Nongkhai, Thailand, during a full moon, in the evening. Lights appeared
under the water for a few hundred metres along the Mekong River. They rose from
the bottom of the river and floated to the surface, then shot like missiles into
the sky and out of sight. They were the size of beach balls, and many flew out
of the water every few minutes, surfacing about 10 metres apart. I am told this
happens every year at the same time. Locals say it…
