Space debris.

Have you ever thought about what you would do if you found an unknown object in the place where you live? This situation happened a few days ago in a town of Murcia called Calasparra. It was the owner of the piece of land where that object fell down who called the Civil Guard to report the incident. They took the object away in order to analyse it and they put immediately the zone under quarantine, since there were endless speculations about what this black ball might be but none of them had been verified.

According to independent researchers and the Civil Guard, the mysterious black orb may be a pressurised gas container which came from outer space, a fuel tank from a rocket, debris from a satellite that broke apart or a part of a space station. These suppositions seem to be the most accurate ones due to its size and look, since these objects are made of a strong material which can survive the reentry into the earth and remain intact. And according to the locals, this object could be a UFO “fallen from heaven”, however this hypothesis is rejected because there is no evidence of aliens.

It is also worth mentioning that similar objects have been found in other areas of the world, such as in Australia and Brazil, owing to the fact that there are thousands upon thousands of space debris which surround the planet.

In conclusion, although there are several hypotheses, the black ball is surely a space debris due to the vast amount which exists. Nevertheless, this fact is not comforting since space debris is a really serious problem whose solution is clearly difficult to implement.
