"The Shanghai Morning Post reported earlier this month that the mission could take place as early as this month or October, " http://www.physorg.com/news6379.html And now reports of large meteors coming in about the same time. We had a brilliant meteor here in Miami last Thursday evening http://www.miami.com/mld/miamiherald/12777392.htm And another one came over almost in the same area the week before. http://www.flatoday.com/apps/pbcs.dl...25/1006/NEWS01 And one reported seen in Ohio about the same time.

I was driving on RT. 271 southbound and it appeared to streak towads the horizion from an elevation of about 60 degrees. Lasted I would say, a total of 4 seconds. Someone reported a fireball from the Ohio River region at the same time in the Northern sky. If it was the same, the altitude must have been fairly low. And look at this video posted just a couple of days ago. It may be fake, but if you look at the shock wave take out the coolers and chair, that was a real explosion and shock wave. Hollywood would have a hard time making something this convincing. http://poststuff.entensity.net/10030...dia=meteor.wmv Nice movie - but fake, sorry... The explosion is a real pyrotechnic, but the 'fireball' is an effect, possibly CGI, drawn in later. I've seen an incoming satellite burn up, it's not a burning pitch ball spewing black smoke! It's orange hot to white hot pieces of metal... I wasn't close enough to see where it hit the ground, but there was no Hollywood explosion! |
