Have you noticed this laser light over Beirut recently?

This light originates from Moahammad Al Amine mosque in downtown Beirut.  I assume it points to the Kaabah (located in Mecca KSA) that muslims face during their prayer no matter where they are on earth.

    I don’t think so… the earth is spherical, obviously… this laser appears to be linear.

    Jester, the laser point to the direction of Kaaba only, and of course not to Kaaba directly 🙂
