For a brief moment on Thursday, an incredible sight illuminated the dark sky over Arizona. The cause? A fireball of sorts that blinded all cameras as far off as western New Mexico. UFO hunters believe this is just more evidence of alien visitors. NASA, on the other hand, takes a more logical approach.

Although the blast seemed to dismantle cameras for hundreds of miles around, some people were able to get a rough scale on the UFO’s size. Based on the data, the UFO was around 10 feet (3 meters) in diameter and had a mass of a few tons. Entering the sky above Arizona at dawn, UFO researchers believe the object was moving at more than 40,000 miles per hour (64,700). Due to the lack of video evidence, a number of theories are out there surrounding the cause of this Arizona explosion. As always, the space agency goes with the scientific facts.
NASA SAYS ASTEROID TO BLAME
Using what little evidence that’s been found, NASA has found the UFO to be an asteroid. The asteroid was said to be the brightest fireball found in the 8-year history of NASA’s Fireball Network. At the moment, there are no reports of damage or injuries. NASA believes they will find meteorites scattered on the ground north of Tucson, Arizona. It may seem like a closed case at this point, but judging by that data, Earth can expect far more of these occurrences in the future.
ALIEN EXPLOSIONS PREDICTED TO INCREASE
Looking at AMS-NASA data regarding the number of fireballs since 2005, one can expect to see an increase of events like the one seen here in Arizona. Comparing the number of fireballs in 2005 with 2015 and beyond it shows that a number of objects entering our atmosphere increase every year. At the moment, these events inspire nothing more than entertainment from scientists and alien enthusiasts alike. That being said, perhaps the world should get a head start on setting up their own team or rag-tag individuals to prevent armageddon.
