On December 30, 2024, a giant metal ring landed in the small village of Mukuku in southern Kenya…
This mysterious object, about 2.5 meters in diameter and weighing 500 kilograms, has raised many questions. The Kenyan Space Agency has launched an investigation to uncover its secrets.
The villagers couldn’t believe their eyes: this massive ring might be a piece of a rocket that fell from space! Some experts suggest it’s space debris, possibly linked to a mission launched by India on the same day. However, others remain skeptical, thinking it might have come from an Earth-based machine.
Did you know that objects sometimes fall from the sky? With all the rockets sent into space, pieces can break off and fall back to Earth. These are called space debris. Luckily, it’s rare for them to land in places where people live, but when it happens, it can be dangerous.
Scientists are working hard to find solutions to prevent such objects from causing accidents. Meanwhile, the people of Mukuku are still wondering: where did this ring come from?
