-- As bizarre as it may seem, the sample jars brimming with cloudy, reddish rainwater in Godfrey Louis's laboratory in southern India may hold, well, aliens.

In April, Louis, a solid-state physicist at Mahatma Gandhi University, published a paper in the prestigious peer-reviewed journal Astrophysics and Space Science in which he hypothesizes that the samples -- water taken from the mysterious blood-colored showers that fell sporadically across Louis's home state of Kerala in the summer of 2001 -- contain microbes from outer space.

That is indeed nifty, can't wait to see how this one developes.

the only thing I am wondering about is that if this occured in 2001 why was this just published recently?

Maybe they took their time to make sure it wasn't terestrial.

I think it would be cool too.
