Orb Causes Alarm Trigger: Dust, Insect, or Genuine Phenomenon?
The event of August 22, 2026, saw an orb enter Josep's house and activate the alarm. The scene, captured by a security camera, shows a sphere of light moving through the interior and, according to the account, causing the system to sound. The question is immediate: how could a simple light activate an alarm? Or is the most mundane explanation—suspended dust, condensed moisture, an insect—falling short?
The Scientific Explanation: Dust, Insects, and Pareidolia
The scientific community usually attributes these phenomena to dust particles illuminated by the camera's infrared light. This is the most widespread explanation, and not without reason: any speck of dust near the lens can appear as a bright, out-of-focus sphere. Insects are also speculated upon, as they can reflect light when passing near the lens, creating the effect. And pareidolia—the brain's tendency to find patterns where none exist—completes the picture. In this case, moreover, the alarm may have been triggered for other reasons—a system failure, a draft—and coincidence led to the particle being present at that moment. This is what skeptics maintain.
The Other Side: Testimonies That Don't Fit
But not everyone accepts this. Some maintain that orbs are real, and not everything seen in videos is dust. Personal experiences are cited: a small sphere of light entering the house through the door, or a light passing through a room's wall. There is also mention of auric energy (orgonic energy), an esoteric concept that, according to its defenders, could explain the interaction with alarms. The irony of the matter is that if the alarm truly went off, the system reacted to something. To what?
The debate remains open. The scientific explanation is sound, but it doesn't explain why the alarm activated precisely when the orb was present. Was it a coincidence, or is there something more to it?
