A large metallic object fell from the sky and landed in Myanmar on Thursday. Residents from the nearby area they were surprised when they heard a loud bang followed by some minor shaking from the ground. Fearing the incident as a natural calamity, the locals were even more taken aback to find that a massive piece of unidentified material has crashed into a mine. 

The object, which looked like a "UFO" according to residents, was a metallic cylinder with Chinese writings on the side, thus a space junk from China. This is not the first time that incidents like this have been reported within the vicinity. It is quite apparent that China is actively improving and testing out their space equipment. Locals have indicated that they feared it was a start of a war as loud crashes and smoke has been witnessed.

According to reports from local authorities and experts, there are high possibilities that these debris are related to the recent experimental Chinese satellite launch. Just Wednesday night, the Long March 11 rocket has been launched from the Gobi desert carrying equipment. The newly found metallic debris has been linked to a part known as the stage and is most likely from this specific rocket. Experts believe that it landed on earth but managed to bounce 50m before getting stuck in the mud near the North Myanmar mines.

It was fortunate that this event has not caused any harm or injuries to the locals. What most of them are afraid of is the likeliness that another debris falls in the region, landing on homes and harming residents.
