In his Twitter thread, the account owner indicated other locations the mysterious screaming sound could be heard. From some of the video footage, the mysterious voice was heard quite clearly, even though he was on the dock or on the road around his house complex.

Netizens have also tweeted hundreds of times the voice of the mysterious scream. Some of them also uploaded the same mysterious voice recording, in different places.

Skyquake?

As for other speculation currently developing is the skyquake or sound that comes from atmospheric events in the sky as the source of a mysterious boom. But this too is doubtful because there were no reports of sonic boom detection stations and no aircraft flying at the speed of sound.

This phenomenon has been heard for years in various parts of the world. Some have even named this mysterious phenomenon with various terms, starting from Barisal guns, Balza, Brontidi, Lagoni, or umimari (crying from the sea) in Japan.

VOI had asked about this mysterious phenomenon to the Head of the National Aeronautics and Space Agency (Lapan), Thomas Djamaluddin. Based on his explanation, the phenomenon of a mysterious scream or boom that occurred in the sky could not be explained scientifically.

"When it comes to sound, I don't know. I think there is no scientific explanation for the sound of the boom," said Thomas in his short message to VOI.

He also doubts if the mysterious roar or scream in the sky is said to be a skyquake phenomenon. This is because there has been no scientific research regarding when and how this phenomenon occurred.

Thomas who is also an astronomer said he could not explain scientifically, because the facts did not exist. "It is very possible that the local voices are different, but they are considered to be interrelated. So it is as if the sound of a bang was heard over a wide area, "he said.

Until now, the source of the screams or thumps was still mysterious. This incident is the same as the explosion that occurred some time ago in Central Java and its surroundings.
