Mexicans see space shuttle, think it's the Sun God
 

The Space Shuttle Atlantis's return flight prompted panic in a Mayan village in Mexico, with local residents inundating police with phone calls about a "ball of fire" in the sky and the "sound of an explosion," authorities said.

The emergency calls came in Thursday at about 5:15 am local time (1015 GMT), six minutes before NASA's Atlantis shuttle landed at Cape Canaveral in the US state of Florida, some 800 kilometers (497 miles) from Chunes, a small village on Mexico's Yucatan Peninsula.

"They asked us to search the area. A military unit confirmed that no small plane had crashed," said Abraham Oliva, director of public security for the municipality.

It was not until the evening, when authorities saw the television news, that they realized the suspicious sights and sounds had been produced by the shuttle as it streaked overhead, Oliva said.

maybe they were smoking grass?

That must have been exciting. :D

The article doesn?t have anything about the villagers thinking it was a god of any sorts? it look as though they saw a fireball in the sky, heard an explosion, and were just generally concerned. No sacrifices were made; according to the article the villagers were concerned over possible downed plane victims. They reported what they saw to the local authorities? what exactly would you have done any different if you saw a gigantic fireball in the sky and heard an earth-shattering boom?
