A glowing green fireball buzzing over Russia’s hi-tech “scientific city” in Siberia has sparked claims Vladimir Putin could be developing space weapons.
The bright flash and streaking tail was seen by stunned motorists close to the research town of Akademgorodok near Novosibirsk, Russia.
Research institutes in the area are dubbed Vladimir Putin’s “secret weapon” in the global hi-tech arms race. Just six miles away is Koltsovo, home of a secretive institute Vector – the repository of the planet's most deadly diseases and viruses, including smallpox, Ebola and Marburg.
Images were caught on dash cams in the early morning darkness. Some observers claimed it was an “alien attack” or a meteor exploding in the sky.
State-run Russian media admitted astronomers were “somewhat bewildered” by the sight. Ilya Orlov, deputy director the Big Novosibirsk Planetarium, called it a “beautiful phenomenon” but could not be certain what caused it. He said: “Most likely, this is a flash of bolide, that is, the fall of a bright meteor with a flash.”
