Buildup[]
After the Blast Off event, which happened on June 30th 2018, The Visitor made a Crack in the sky. This eventually got bigger and bigger until it started to shrink. At a certain point, lighting came out of the rift every 30/60 minutes. Every time that happened, the crack started to slightly shrink, with just one line disappearing.
