Another anomaly!?!? Could be gas burn-off from an oil platform ... but I can't imagine such a thing exists in that location. Couldn't find any leads on the Internet. This is getting silly! I'm considering e-mailing Dr Perantonia Cinzano, the author of the 'night sky brightness' atlas to see if he has any answers.
