Authorities told that a speculated meteorite, an object the size of a football, crashed into a rice field in Bihar's Madhubani district, shocking the farmers. The workers saw a fireball-like object coming down from the sky that was light-brown in colour and weighed about 15 kg with strong magnetic properties. Madhubani's magistrate Kapil Ashok said it looked like a rock, but its glitter is more than that of unpolished stone.
