Mystery: No one seems to what these purple spheres in the desert are where they came from
Some of the spheres were watery and others translucent.
They were completed isolated from the rest of the desert terrain.
Possibilities: Some have speculated that the
spheres could be a slime mold or jelly fungus or a man-made product for
plant hydration
The news station checked out the spheres, reporting that they were like 'gooey marbles that ooze out a water substance when squished.'
Isolated: Everyone from botanists to tv crews has speculated on the sphere's origin
Other suggest they are a product, like Deco Beads which are small, colored, water-filled balls designed to keep plants hydrated. Though that does little to explain why thousands of them would have been put in the desert.
