  The exotic cosmic ray events are reviewed. Theoretical attempts to explain
the Centauro-like phenomena are summarized. Results of accelerator experiments
looking for Centauro-related objects are discussed. The discussion is completed
with an overview of the current and future collider experiments at RHIC and
LHC. In particular the CASTOR detector, dedicated to Centauro and strange
objects research in heavy ion collisions at the LHC energies is presented.
