Bizarre-could be a large smoke ring in almost no wind-
A strange black circle was spotted in the sky above a village in northern Kazakhstan. Baffled residents captured the mysterious spectacle on video as it hovered in the air for fifteen minutes before dissipating.
Villagers living in Shortandy, some 70 kilometers north of the Kazakh capital Astana, witnessed the spooky event on Friday afternoon.
“It was like a black cloud. We saw it at around 4 pm on April 3. It dissipated like smoke, but it was completely odorless,” Oleg Menshikov, a village resident, told Today.kz.
Andrey Solodovnik, associate physics professor at the Northern Kazakhstan State University estimates the ring was about 100 meters in diameter and floated at an altitude of between 200 meters to a kilometer.

Simple explanation for it though. :)
I used to play a lot with gasoline, manholes and matches when I was a kid, so I too have seen/produced this phenomenon. Very cool. :)
I've been curious about this phenomena too, it has been happening for years. However, upon investigation, it turns out that it is probably a blown transformer... they seem to happen often in Russia, maybe because their equipment is old and shoddy? Seems to happen at the same time each year thereabouts though... wonder why?
Probably is Kelly-
'Black rings have been sighted all over the world. Last April, a video of one such event recorded in Leamington Spa, England, left internet users puzzled after making the rounds on social media. Dozens of other videos featuring rings nearly identical to the one seen in Kazakhstan can be found on YouTube.'
But what's the meaning of dozens of circles going up in smoke-we can only hope!!!
