'''[[Red rain in Kerala]]''' was a phenomenon observed sporadically from 25 July to 23 September 2001 in the southern [[India]]n state of [[Kerala]]. Heavy downpours occurred in which the [[rain]] was primarily red, staining clothes and appearing like blood. Yellow, green, and black rains were also reported.<br />
<br />
It was initially suspected that the rains were coloured by fallout from a hypothetical meteor burst, but the [[Government of India]] commissioned a study which found the rains had been coloured by spores from a locally prolific aerial [[algae]]. Then in early 2006, the coloured rains of Kerala suddenly rose to worldwide attention after media reports of an extraordinary theory that the coloured particles are [[extraterrestrial life|extraterrestrial]] cells, proposed by [[Godfrey Louis]] and Santhosh Kumar of the [[Mahatma Gandhi University, Kerala|Mahatma Gandhi University]] in [[Kottayam]].
