Three mysterious metal spheres that fell from the sky and landed in northern Vietnam on Saturday have been seized by the Vietnamese military and are being investigated, Vietnamese media report.
Witnesses reported hearing thunder-like noises in the sky and seeing the objects flying up there early Saturday morning before they crash-landed, Thanh Nien News reported.
Two of the metal balls, one 250 grams and one six kilograms, landed in Yen Bai province. The smaller one hit the roof of the house, while the larger, about the size of a basketball, landed in a garden.
So far, investigators have determined that the objects are specialized compressed air tanks that may be from a rocket and that they were manufactured in Russia, although they may have subsequently been sold to other countries. They're made of metal and don't contain radioactive or explosive materials. Cont.
