Pictures show huge pieces of space junk, suspected to be from a SpaceX rocket, that crashed to Earth and landed on sheep farms in Australia.
S
heep farmer Mick Miners first came across a strange, charred object on his ranch, south of Jindabyne, in the Snowy Mountains, New South Wales on July 25.
"I didn't know what to think, I had no idea what it was," Miners told
ABC Australia at the time.
Another piece was also discovered by his neighbor, Jock Wallace.
Now, somebody else has come forward to ABC Australia, having found another piece of junk on July 14, in Moonbah. The
space junk is thought to be linked to a sonic boom heard across the area on July 9. People also saw a streak of bright light across the sky at the same time.
When a rocket is launched, parts of the craft break away from the main payload and fall back down to Earth. Most of these pieces burn up when the hit the atmosphere, however some large pieces may remain intact. These pieces usually land in the ocean, which makes up two thirds of the Earth's surface. But on occasion, they can hit land.
A picture shows the space junk found in the snowy mountains. A loud bang was heard a few days before the first piece was discovered.BRAD TUCKER ...
