Alien Sightings of India

Aliens are any living creatures that are not originally from Earth. They could be anything from intelligent life to simple bacteria; however, there was no concrete evidence to support life outside of our planet as of now. Scientists had allegedly found in an asteroid what could be Martian bacteria.

Alexander the Great's Account
In 329 BC, on the then Central Asian/Indian border (now between Tajikistan and Afghanistan), Alexander the Great's armies were attacked by strange flying objects.<blockquote>His historians told of 2 strange objects in the sky that dove repeatedly at his army as they were attempting a river crossing in the Jaxartes River. The action panicked his elephants, horses, and men; they had to abandon the river crossing until the following day. They were described as great silver shields, spitting fire around the rims.</blockquote>
