- BEIJING -- An unidentified
flying object, or UFO, passed across the large northwestern Chinese city
of Lanzhou and apparently exploded in the suburbs, state media said
today.
-
- The unusual sighting of two bright trails of light,
reported
by several witnesses, took place Saturday shortly before midnight, the
China Times reported.
-
- Police, working on the theory that it was a meteorite,
went to investigate the matter, but as of today they had found no evidence
of what caused the nightly phenomenon, an officer said.
-
- A taxi driver told the paper he was in his car when
everything
suddenly became "as bright as day."
-
- When he pulled over, he saw a fireball with a tail of
about three meters darting across the sky, he said.
-
- China has been hit by several waves of UFO sighting in
recent years, and the country has a research association devoted to the
study of possible extraterrestrial visits.
