That's an easy one. The earth is in space. If it fell off a table on earth, it fell from space.

Well, in that case, it fell to the earth from a table through space.

Is that ball in the photo, with the red and yellow splotches on it the ball that fell in Namibia? If that’s the actual ball, it didn’t fall from space.

It could not have plunged through the atmosphere without reaching high enough temps to have scorched the paint off of it and turned it black at the minimum; and quite possibly have badly deformed or melted it at the worst. Probably picked up by a tornado someplace, and Namibia’s where it came down.

I guess it is time for an eye checkup soon =)

Either that or some spaghetti and red wine.

Recent theory is it's a nineteen-inch-diameter 39-liter hydrazine bladder tank for spacecraft, launch vehicle and upper stage applications. Titanium hydrazine propellant tank with EPDM bladder, is typically used on all versions of Ariane 5 and the Atmospheric Re-entry Demonstrator.

>>>LOL I would have blamed dyslexia. I have been seeing the funny side of titles since I could read.

Dyslexia is a terrible thing... especially this time of year... I feel really sorry for all the dyslexic kids that sent gift wish letters to Satan.
