Mystery object

On July 16, a suspected rocket fragment was discovered on the shores near Jurien Bay in Western Australia. The object, measuring 8 feet wide, showed significant damage and signs of long-term exposure to water. By July 30, the Australian Space Agency had identified the debris as likely originating from a discarded Polar Satellite Launch Vehicle (PSLV)—a medium-lift rocket routinely launched by the Indian Space Research Organization (ISRO).
