She hypothesized it was not a “recent launch.” “This one was solid fuel which is generally safe unless it’s actually burning.” “In general it’s better for people to avoid touching them,” she said. Gorman said that while the object “isn’t going to explode,” the rocket fuels are toxic. A storm probably dislodged it, allowing it to be swept to shore.” “It looks like it has been on the sea floor for some time, becoming a habitat for marine animals like barnacles. “When rockets are launched, the fuel tanks drop off and the fuel is expended and generally falls over the ocean, as this one did,” she said. Gorman told that she believes the object is a fuel cylinder that came from the third stage of India’s polar satellite launch vehicle rocket.Įxperts warn public after ‘hazardous’ possible spacecraft washes up on beach Alice Gorman, an expert in the field of space archaeology at Flinders University.

An amateur sleuth claims to have “solved” the mystery of an unidentified object that was found on a remote Western Australian beach.
