So this is how it begins…A “weird” greenish slime said in folklore to appear at the same time as meteors hit Earth has been found in a birdlife park in Somerset.
The translucent goo, which has baffled scientist, is believed to have oozed out of the Russian meteor that recently fell from the most outer of space.
The unexplained blobs, known as ‘star jelly’ has cropped up all around the reserve. Theories abound about what the jelly is – from “crystallised brain fungus” to the decomposing remains of a dead frog.
Baffled site manager Steve Hughes said: “Whatever it is, it’s very weird. Our reserve team will be looking out for the slime over the next few days but if anyone can offer any explanations we’d be glad to hear.”
…so would we Steve, so would we.
Game over guys!
