I only know a couple of things about Namibia; that it’s an African country, they produce great marathon runners (wait, I think it’s Kenya) and one of my favorite Street Fighter 3 characters is Elena from Namibia who’s deceivingly good. At least, if you were to challenge me, anyway, and get your butt whooped, you’ll know. But that’s another story.
Anyway, these hallowed balls have been dropping from the sky as if it’s a form of new year celebration in Namibia. Authorities have said that it’s an alloy known to man. Misleading indeed. That’s like the Government saying, “we didn’t detect anything on our radar, so nothing can’t be flying around at that time.” Yes, because advanced aliens who can travel light years away to visit us don’t have the technology to go undetected by our archaic systems. Heck, we (the USA), can go undetected by Russia through our stealth technology, what makes earthlings think UFO’s can’t? But I digress.
Anyway, man may know about a lot of alloys, but that doesn’t mean it’s ours.
What do you think?
“Space ball” drops on Namibia
(AFP) – 15 hours ago
WINDHOEK — A large metallic ball fell out of the sky on a remote grassland in Namibia, prompting baffled authorities to contact NASA and the European space agency.
The hollow ball with a circumference of 1.1 metres (43 inches) was found near a village in the north of the country some 750 kilometres (480 miles) from the capital Windhoek, according to police forensics director Paul Ludik.
Locals had heard several small explosions a few days beforehand, he said.
With a diameter of 35 centimetres (14 inches), the ball has a rough surface and appears to consist of “two halves welded together”.
It was made of a “metal alloy known to man” and weighed six kilogrammes (13 pounds), said Ludik.
