At around 4:50 PM (Beijing time), April 12, 2008, a whopping noise was heard by several farmer housewives when they were chatting with each other at the door of the local farmer Wangyuehua's house. They searched the sky, and saw an unidentified object with a tail of white smoke fling towards them from north to south.
