MILWAUKEE -- Unidentified Falling Object -- it's a UFO that has one local man scratching his head. His van damaged by a large object, but so far, no one can say exactly what that object is.

The damage is extensive, the owner of the van thinks the object fell from the sky. It's a mystery that plays out like an episode of "The X-Files."

... "It's like a cone shape, but on the top it's heavy and inside it's hollow," said Robinson.

Has anyone seen a carbon-fiber hubcap?

[Salamander]

Aw...I know what that is.

[what the hell is that?]

;D

My guess is that it is the remains of a spin-casting fishing reel...

Posted #43 based on only the original photo-- who has no indication of scale...

Now that I've seen the other photos and the extent of the damage, I'll go with some sort of carbon-fiber composite nose cone or tank section from a space asset of some sort...

What kind of imbecile would call that “a cone shape.”

I have heard people say, when there’s a grinding, scraping, metallic sound, “What’s causing that buzzing?”

Never believe eyewitnesses!

Graphite carbon composite propulsion tank fromy a satellite?

---

I remember a sailor telling me that he was on the Challenger recovery mission had picked up a 3 ft. diameter sphere. He tried to find out what it was, but they would not tell him. However, and permanent narrative of the event was made into his medical record. Hydrazine hazard?

“...alien in origin. They’ve come to harvest...”

You must mean illegal aliens from south of the border.

Space junk from old satellite?...........

[ProtectOurFreedom]

Somebody call SpaceX. They’ve been looking for a missing cryogenic helium pressurization tank since September 23.

Part of an elusive TR-3B ...

Wait now...I once owned a 1956 TR-3, but it didn't have any parts that looked like that! And I didn't know they made a "B" model.
