At least three large pieces from a SpaceX rocket have been found on farmland in southeast Australia, APA reports citing ABC News.

According to ABC News, the Australian Space Agency confirmed that the three pieces of debris are likely pieces of a service module jettisoned from the SpaceX Crew Dragon in May.

On July 9, residents in the rural area of Numbla Vale in New South Wales reported hearing sonic booms before two pieces of debris were later found by farmers. According to ABC News, a third piece was discovered on July 14 in nearby Moonbah.

The debris impacted the ground, burying portions below the surface. One piece measured nearly 10 feet long.
