From the Sun [tabloid]:
A PACKED plane that dropped 100ft in just seven seconds was likely struck by cosmic rays from space, scientists say. The New-Jersey-bound flight may have been struck by rays from a star exploding in another galaxy.
Twenty passengers were injured by the sudden drop on the JetBlue Airbus A320 flight on October 30, though the pilot quickly regained control of the aircraft. The plane was hit by high-energy particles that had travelled millions of light years caused by a supernova, which is an exploding star.
