3-Billion Year Old Manufactured Spheroids? Even NASA is baffled)

[The Loan Arranger]

At least 200 have been found, and extracted out of deep rock at the Wonderstone Silver Mine in South Africa, averaging 1-4 inches in dia. and composed of a nickel-steel alloy that doesn't occur naturally.

Some have a thin shell about a quarter inch thick, when broken open are filled with a strange spongy material that disintegrates into dust upon contact with air.

A complete mystery according to Roelf Marx curator of the South African Klerksdorp Museum, as the one he has on exibit rotates on its own, locked in a display case, free of outside vibrations.

The manufactured metallic spheroids have been mined out of a layer of pyrophyllite rock and geologically and by the various radio-isotope dating techniques are shown as being 2.8 - 3 billion years old, long before man, as shown at the bottom of the graph.

Somebody or Something obviously has been around for a long time, before primivive humans.

They also baffled NASA, according to info from the Museum.

I guess we should get some firecrackers and done blowed these things up right purty like.

Birdshot for Pterodactyl?

Nah. Alien Ben Wah Balls.

"This is the accepted artifact to compare against."

Isn't she the missing link, scientist have been searching for?

Still alive after 2 million years.

That's right, she is not quite alive. She is the Living Dead.

As a floating puddle of molten iron-nickel in space, they might tend to form little balls. A sphere has the lowest surface area to volume ration, so forming a sphere is a way for the molten metal to minimize surface energy. If the outside quenched and solidified while a large amount of gas was still in the metal, the inside might form pockets of gas and be spongy.

Reminds me of Prince Rupert's drops... Molten glass is allowed to drop into a bucket of cold water, instantly freezing the outside surface into a teardrop shape, then the hot glass inside cools, contracts and adheres to the sides leaving a near-perfect vacuum void in the middle. I wonder if spherical ones have been done in micro-gravity environments.

I don't have an explanation for the ring around the equator of these things

Stretch marks.

Perfect spheroids are favored by any natural process that involves a great deal of surface energy. A sphere has the lowest ratio of surface area to volume, so the best way to minimize surface energy is form a sphere.

Correct. When I was a kid I remember listening to someone on Long John Nebel's radio show talking about similar "perfect metallic spheroids of alien origin" but I think these were in Czechoslovakia or thereabouts.

We have a nice 3D picture of some of those from one of the Rovers. Of course, I call them Martian Moquis because I didn't hear the phrase "Martian blueberry" for a long time after I'd first seen them.

[Duke Nukum]

wow! this one looks like Mooninites!

[MHGinTN]

The delivery system for 'transpermia' don'tcha know! There use to be pix on the net of these things taken in S. Africa and in Czechoslovakia.

[Duke Nukum]

LOL! I only read a tiny bit of it but it's funny as heck! Even though it goes on and on about nothing like a (l)unix man page, it at least made me laugh!

Plus, I totally agree with his assessment of academics.

Academics, epidemics, pandemics: pretty much three words describing the same thing.

[longshadow]

Thanks for the ping; please add my name to your "Mystery Balls" ping list.....

;-)

[balrog666]

Oh, yeah, we all know spheres cannot be natural!

Alien products?
