The strange pink glow that lit up the dusk sky was really light from a nearby medical marijuana facility.

Many residents of Mildura, a Victorian town in northern Australia, believed that the planet was doomed and appeared to accept their fate in the face of a phenomenon like an alien invasion, the Stranger Things gates, or perhaps a wormhole.

There is a reason, though, and it's much more commonplace than a portal to another planet.

The strange pink glow that lit up the dusk sky was really light from a nearby medical marijuana facility.

"Locals were treated to a bit of a light show last night while we were testing one of the new cultivation zones at our facility. We can confidently say this was not a solar flare or an interdimensional portal," a pharmaceutical company, confirmed in a Twitter post.

One of the most important factors in cannabis growing, which normally uses a variety of spectrums to promote development, is light. According to some, red wavelengths are best for enhancing photosynthesis.

A senior communications manager, Rhys Cohen, said in a statement to The Guardian that "a red spectrum light is often used. Normally, the building would have nighttime blackout shades that would eventually obscure that glow."

According to Peter Crock, CEO of Cann Group, the Mildura cannabis farm is a relatively new facility that has only started operating this year. Lights are typically turned off at sundown, but testing new equipment allowed them to stay on later.

Federal access to medical cannabis was legalised in Australia in 2016. Doctors may recommend marijuana to patients if they think it is clinically acceptable, despite the fact that it is still highly restricted.
