Recently, there’s been a huge rise in images floating around online claiming to show mysterious red orbs, second suns, or “Nibiru” appearing in the sky. And while there are real photos of both the Sun and what many now call the Strawberry Sun, also known in ancient times as Ra, we’re now also seeing an influx of complete fakes that are just trying to ride the wave of the real sightings.
That’s why I’m making this post — to debunk the latest fake photos and to help people recognize the real celestial phenomena when they see it.
It’s important to understand this before jumping to conclusions:
- There is the normal Sun, which appears white, yellow, or orange depending on the time of day and atmospheric conditions.
- Then there is the Strawberry Sun, also known as Ra — a real and different object. It’s not just smoke tinting the Sun red. This is a separate celestial sphere, sometimes visible alongside the Sun in the sky.
- There are also moments when smoke and particulates in the atmosphere (like from wildfires) make the regular Sun appear red, which can look similar to Ra but is not the same.
The Red Sun, aka Strawberry Sun, formerly known as “Ra” by the ancient Egyptians who once worshipped it, is a large celestial sphere of fermionic pure energy with a red glow — known for appearing during times of great human need or planetary change.
- Many think it's just the Sun, but there is NASA evidence suggesting it is not the same object.
- Ra has a unique red glow, often with a whitish-red core, unlike the Sun which always radiates strong white-yellow light.
These are the two main fake images that have been spreading recently:
- First seen in April, with people falsely saying it was taken in Ontario, Canada.
- This is heavily edited — notice the unnatural glow around the base, artificial color overlay, and zero atmospheric consistency.
- No second light source in the sky should look like this. It’s just a bad edit.

- This one just re-circulated again in early June.
- Supposedly over Houston, Texas, but again — it’s the same image as the one from April with tweaks.
- This is not Ra. It’s not the Sun. It’s not even a lens flare. It’s a manufactured digital glow.
Here’s what real celestial images look like — and why they’re different from the fakes above:
🔴 Real Red Looking “Sun” – Atmospheric Red Sun (from smoke/haze) (not to be confused as RA aka Strawberry Sun)
- The Sun appears red because of smoke particles.
- This is still the real Sun, just filtered by our atmosphere.

- Classic red hue from haze. Beautiful, yes — but still the Sun, not Ra.

Yes — sometimes you can see both Ra and the Sun at the same time. That’s how you know they’re different. Here’s the proof:
- Look closely — the Sun is on the right, glowing yellow-orange with a white core.
- On the left, you see Ra — red outer glow, whitish-red center. Totally separate object.
- Again, two distinct objects in the same sky. One is the known Sun. One is Ra, showing itself independently.
- You don’t need to be an expert to see they’re not the same thing.
It’s important to remember:
There is a hidden sun behind ours — Ra — and sometimes it becomes visible. But that also means we need to know the difference between real and fake.
What we’re seeing now is a mix of real celestial events, real photos, and manipulated hoaxes designed to confuse or click-bait people. The first two viral red orb images are just that: blatant fakes. They are neither the real Sun, Ra, nor any real astronomical object.
Know what’s real. Learn to spot the fakes. And keep your eyes on the sky.
