A UFO described yesterday by the Indian press as a "ball of fire" crashed into the sea after causing panic among the populations of southern India. The object was spotted on Thursday shortly before its deafening fall off the coast of the city of Trivandrum. The UFO was also tracked by scientists, who stated that it is impossible to determine whether it was a meteorite or a man-made object.
