Mysterious giant metallic ring falls in Kenya - we know what it really is
‘Red and hot’ object suspected to be rocket debris
“The agency wishes to clarify that the object, a metallic ring measuring 2.5 metres in diameter and weighing about 500kg, is a fragment of a space object,” the agency said in a statement.
“Preliminary assessments indicate that the fallen object is a separation ring from a launch vehicle.”
Rocket debris is designed to burn up during re-entry into the earth's atmosphere or to fall over unoccupied areas such as the oceans.
“There are many pieces of debris in space and one cannot be 100 per cent certain which will fall where,” the agency said. “However, most debris burns up in the atmosphere, and incidents like this are extremely rare.”
Imagine just lying outside, touching grass, when suddenly a tight space cock ring falls from the sky at great speed directly on your pp.
Now you have to call specialised rocket engineers to cut the ring off (before you get a spontaneous erection & put everyone in shrapnel danger).
Well, yeah, that's their explanation. But a naqahdah space gate wouldn't burn up on re-entry, would it? Nice try SGC!
No expert here but that's the first thing I thought of. Part of a multi-stage rocket.
Boeing really getting out of hand these days.
Looks like Orlin is getting better.
Oh shit that's where I left my cock ring
Did the x302 not fligh high enough befor unlocking it?
based on ring size, I would say someone received another visit at home 😏
