A fireball that appeared over the Indian state of Kerala has baffled local residents and scientists alike.
Indian government scientists have been working to discover the origin of the fireball.
Scientists have concluded that the fireball was likely caused by a meteor, but some say it may have been created by falling satellite or rocket debris, according to DNA India.
“High specific gravity of the charred remains and presence of iron and nickel in them are the basic characteristic of a meteor, but we can reach a conclusion only after a battery of tests which will take at least a week or so to be completed,'' Geological Survey of India scientist K.P. Praveen was quoted as saying by the website.
