What is orb?

Question

What is orb?

Answer 1

Since your question is in the "parapsychology" section, an orb is the simplest form from which a spirit can manifest itself.  But not all orbs are spirits.  Unless you know how to tell the difference, particles of dust or moisture can show up as orbs on a digital camera.

Answer 2

In the paranormal sense, an orb is a flash reflection off tiny particles of dust or moisture in the air, creating a circular whitish spot in photos. The spot can be opaque or transparents, white or tinted, and it can be smooth or granulated in appearance, depending upon the properties of what is causing the reflection. While there has been a craze among ghosthunters to label any such "orb" a spirit, these "orbs" and their cause have been well known to photographers for decades. Thankfully, most people are coming to their senses now about these simple flash reflections.

Answer 7

an orb is what some believe to be a spirit drawing energy to maifest itself, the only problem with orbs is that they could be dust dirt or bugs caught by the flash on your camera or picked up some of the ir beam from the night vision camera so they are hard to use as evidence for a paranormal investigation

An orb is a spherical object.  In the paranormal context it's what some (but increasingly fewer) people think are photographic representations of deceased human spirits.  This is nonsense of course.
