A clear blue sky above your head is not as safe as it seems. Sometimes heavy objects fall from it, which not only threaten death to people on earth, but also are a mystery to scientists of all of the world.
July 4, 1956 parked on a street in a California city Long Beach cars were completely wrecked by huge icy boulders that suddenly fell from a cloudless sky. Fortunately, people were not hurt.
Miraculously did not end in tragedy, the freezing rain that took place on July 30 1957 in the state of Pennsylvania. Farmer living in Reading Edwin Earl calmly left the house. Suddenly he heard a terrible whistle, and next to it a block of ice weighing about 20 kg pierced the ground. Dumbfounded with horror, he called his wife, and when she came from heaven another block fell, a little less, and fell next to a woman.
There are a lot of cases of ice rains, and scientists still cannot intelligibly explain their origin.
In May 1972, the Los Angeles Times appeared a message about an ice “bomb” that broke through the roof of a building offices and fell in the corridor of the third floor. Reporters suggested that ice could fall off the plane, however, representatives of the federal the air services said that there were no aircraft in that place at that time. In addition, modern aircraft use an electric heating system, so the ice melts as it forms. Therefore fall nothing. Military aircraft, however, lack defrosting devices, their high speed and design make it unlikely noticeable ice formation on the skin.
Scientists argue
To try to find the solution to the ice blocks falling from the sky, expert Ronald Willis interviewed a number of university scientists.
A representative of the Drekel Institute said on this occasion to the expert: “I declare with certainty that these blocks of ice cannot be meteorological origin. ”
“Professor Rene from the Laboratory of Atmospheric and Space University of Colorado Research added: “Meteorological the theory of ice falls is not well founded. Although some astronomers recognize the existence of meteorites from ice, it is doubtful that such lumps could survive with intense heating at the entrance in atmosphere”. ”
In the meantime, scientists talked about a strange phenomenon, in November 1988 Another sensational message appeared in the world media: “Residents the villages of Cades in northern Spain enjoyed the last days Indian summer. Suddenly they heard a growing noise, as if to something huge was approaching him. Several hundred residents of the village became witnesses of an unprecedented phenomenon – a huge fell on the village ice ball. Having fallen, it shattered into many fragments, one of which was interrupted by a 20-centimeter trunk of a walnut tree. Scientists from meteorological observatories could not explain this phenomenon. ”
As a result of ice “bombing” there were human the victims. So, on January 10, 1950, in Dusseldorf, an ice spear 15 cm thick and 182 cm long on the spot struck a carpenter, repairing the roof of his house.
In this incredible case, an investigation was conducted during which it turned out that the culprit of the tragedy is, rather total plane flying over the city. In the 50s of the past centuries, most of them had screw motors, subjected to icing. When turning on the de-icing system piece of ice could fall off the casing and fall to the ground.
June 14, 1990 eighty-year-old Englishwoman Mary Nixon of Wirrala was cleaning the bedroom when she heard a terrible bang and on plaster fell on it. Recovering, she saw the cause of the noise: on the floor lay a piece of ice the size of a soccer ball, and around several ice fragments. It was obvious that the ball fell from a great height. If the woman was a few steps closer to the center of the room, she would surely perish!

“Just three days later, a similar piece of ice fell on the house Lisa Kent, at Cambridge Road. Having pierced a hole in the roof two feet, this the bomb fell next to the crib in which five-year-old John slept. Ice broke into several fragments. The largest of them weighed 11 pounds 9 ounces. ”
After another six weeks from the “celestial guest” suffered Englishman Stephen Packing. Guest friend in Lac de Saint-Cas in the south France, he fell victim to a piece of ice the size of a tennis ball, who fell from a completely clear sky and pleased a man right in the head. Stephen Packing was partially blinded but still grateful fate, because everything could end worse.
Eleven days after the incident in France, even more a large fragment fell on the Pierce family house in Yateley, Hampshire.
Strange structure of ice “bombs”
Experts put forward the version that blocks of ice falling on the ground – these are ice meteorites. The fact is that the Earth is constantly bombarded ice comets containing tens of tons of water. Judging by the data space satellites, these ice blocks fly into our atmosphere with frequency from 5 to 20 times per minute. Their size often approaches the size of a suburban country house. But this version has its own flaws. Already at an altitude of 10-15 thousand kilometers, where only traces of the atmosphere flying at tremendous speed icebergs are heated and evaporate.

And then, no expertise has confirmed the space origin of ice blocks. According to the chemical composition, they consist of ordinary frozen earth water.
However, Professor M. Davis, who studied mysterious icefalls, told reporters: “I can almost say definitely that falling large pieces of ice cannot have meteorological reasons. Today’s atmospheric science processes are not able to form or hold in the air such mass of ice. ”
April 2, 1996, an event occurred in the history of “icefalls” truly significant. A large block of ice weighing about two kilograms fell almost next to Dr. Richard Griffiths, who was walking along the outskirts of Manchester.
As a meteorologist, Griffiths became the first scientist to see firsthand saw the “miracle of nature” falling from heaven. Not bewildered, he took the largest piece of ice with you and put it at home in the freezer. This material evidence was studied in the laboratory. Manchester Institute of Science and Technology.
As a result of research, it turned out that a piece of ice consists of fifty-one crystals, separated by thin air bubbles. It was not like the ice structure we knew and its chemical analysis. Therefore, the version of the aircraft and frozen on its fuselage water dropped by itself.
Meteorologists have suggested that ice may formed in some way from the clouds, but in a laboratory no confirmation of this was found, despite various attempts reproduce something like that, even remotely resembling the specific crystal structure of a strange ice piece.
In the end, Dr. Griffiths and his colleagues were forced to leave any hope for solving the riddle.
There were only UFOs in the air!
In the same 1996, a huge block of ice unknown origin descended from the sky to the 82nd square of Malbagush forestry of the Aznakayevsky forestry in the east of the Republic Tatarstan The area of the frozen piece is off-white It was about 700 square meters, volume – over 500 cubic meters! Study about 300 tons of ice block scientists Kazan University.
The exact date of the incident has not been established. Officially only recognized that “the fall of a weighty object of approximately 25 x 27 meters square “occurred in early November, 300 meters from residential and production facilities of the farmer Shaidullin, who rented the city of Aznakaevo land.
A block of ice destroyed around 30 adult pines and birch trees, tore the tops off other trees, which Shaidullin is not about failed to report to the police and the local security inspectorate nature.
Law enforcement officers immediately cordoned off the “scene”, and inspectors using devices installed non-hazardous background of gamma radiation and increased content in the sky ice of chromium, nitrogen and iron.
At the Ministry of Environment and Natural Resources Tatars told reporters about this: “It’s just rare atmospheric phenomenon. Mass of water was raised from the open reservoir powerful tornado into the upper atmosphere and there it froze. The analysis showed that the ice is fresh. ”
But where did it come from in the middle of autumn in the center of the Eurasian continent tornado, capable of raising almost 300 tons in the skies water? Meteorologist Almira Burnaeva said: “For the last time a small tornado in the Volga region was noted in 1986, and a hurricane – 17 July 1996 For the onset of a tornado at such a time of year little: a meeting of air masses with a temperature difference is required, as at least 20 degrees and many other conditions. Even less likely to a tornado of such power to go unnoticed by the population and by specialists. Because of its weight, the icy colossus could not overcome a distance of thousands of kilometers, for example, from the equatorial zone, where tornadoes are a frequent occurrence. ”
Another mysterious icefall occurred in March 2001 in Australia As reported by LAAP, in one of the suburbs Sydney, a huge piece of ice pierced the roof of the house in which she lived single 63 year old woman. Lump “the size of a container for ice cream “got into the bathroom.
Hearing the incredible power of the roar, the woman went to see what case, and saw pieces of ice lying on the floor of the bathroom. In the ceiling and a huge through hole gaped on the roof of the house. Police Inspector Paul Hume, who investigated this incident, claimed that the ice floe was clearly fell from a great height. However no aircraft at this time in there was no air.
There were, as local ufologists noticed, only UFOs! And quite many! For example, the Border Watch Newspaper reported numerous UFO eyewitnesses along the southeast coast Australia, exactly where Sydney was located and destroyed by an ice floe house.
All this allowed ufologists to argue that ice blocks can serve as proof of the reality of the existence of UFOs! The thing is, that Earth’s gravity doesn’t act on “plates.” They can come in. from space to the atmosphere slowly, without warming up from friction about air. And since the temperature of the UFO hull arrived from space in terrestrial atmosphere, must correspond to the temperature of its environment space (minus two hundred seventy three degrees Celsius), then on the walls of the ship will immediately begin to freeze water vapor.
Naturally, on alien ships, as well as on our aircraft, anti-icing systems must be present for dropping growing on the skin of an ice crust. Here are the aliens and include them, thus dropping ice ballast on the heads of earthlings.
It is clear that this is only a hypothesis, and to accurately answer the question: from where strange ice “guests” come to us, while no one cannot answer …
