Shepherds report UFO sighting near ISRO centre in TN
15 Dec 2015
A mysterious flying object was reportedly sighted by shepherds over the Indian Space Research Organisation's Mahendragiri centre and neighbouring forest areas in the Tirunelveli district of Tamil Nadu.
Police said the shepherds, who were grazing cattle, claimed to have seen a mysterious object flying over the cryogenic testing centre of ISRO on Monday.
However, ISRO officials denied any 'flight' over the centre at Mahendragiri.
Police said the shepherds had told them that the object flew near the seventh watch tower, where no one had been posted for a long time.
Officials of the police and forest department, besides ISRO, were interrogating the shepherds to ascertain what exactly they had seen, they said.
