Overview:-
- The world has been, for times immemorial, tormented by events that don’t really fit into any known scientific explanatory framework. Some of the events just threaten the existing logic and causality we humans are accustomed to. Luckily, some of these paradigm shifting events eventually fit into an existing framework with extensive research while some just remain mysterious and go unexplained. One us event is the mysterious red rain or the blood rain.
- The mysterious red rain of Kerala, India baffled the entire world back in 2001. Several explanations were put forward to explain the unusual red stain of the rain. Some were simply rejected and some partially (yes, partially) accepted with several questions remaining unanswered.
- Starting July 25, 2001, Kerala experienced an unusual phenomenon. It was monsoon and it rained. While that falls pretty much into the natural cycle as we know but what was really unusual was that this time, the color of the rain was red. This red rain continued till September 23, 2001. Prior to that, red rain in Kerala was reported in 1896. Most recently, the phenomenon was reported in July 2012.
