It was revealed in Guardian Unlimited, in 2006 about a finding of biological material in red rain that was happened in Kerala, India. Until now, this findings still become a mystery, there is still no specific proof that the red rain was a real alien’s DNA.
On 25 July, 2001, blood-red rain fell over the Kerala district of western India. Godfrey Louis, a physicist at Mahatma Gandhi University in Kottayam, said, ‘If you look at these particles under a microscope, you can see they are not dust, they have a clear biological appearance.’
Instead Louis decided that the rain was made up of bacteria-like material that had been swept to Earth from a passing comet. In short, it rained aliens over India during the summer of 2001.
Not everyone is convinced by the idea, of course. But a few researchers believe Louis may be on to something and are following up his work. Milton Wainwright, a microbiologist at Sheffield, is now testing samples of Kerala’s red rain. It is certainly not dust. Nor is there any DNA there, but then alien bacteria would not necessarily contain DNA.
One analysis showed the particles were 50 per cent carbon, 45 per cent oxygen with traces of sodium and iron: consistent with biological material. Louis also discovered that, hours before the first red rain fell, there was a loud sonic boom that shook houses in Kerala.
Do you think that this may proof something about aliens?
