"Strange Thin Glowing Cloud, Twice The Diameter Of The Moon"
Latest news, multiple reports, and a great photograph are at http://www.spaceweather.com/ (image is at http://www.spaceweather.com/swpod200...add1_strip.jpg) compare with space events: http://planet4589.org/space/jsr/latest.html From http://www.habitablezone.com/nexus/i...sp?svcpt=space A post from someone in australia on another board... // Tuesday, 20 February 2007 Strange Thin Glowing Cloud, Twice The Diameter Of The Moon just got out of bed and turned on the radio and they were talking to people who had witnessed this phenonomon. I live in QLD australia, apparently the witnesses said their was a flash of light in the heavens about 3am this morning followed by around very thin almost gaseous glowing cloud that grew over the space of 10 mim to twice the diameter of the moon. A LOCAL astronomer said he believes it was some kind of explosion in space, another reported that he felt this cloud was circleing our planet. I was wondering if this may have something to do with the warnings from a few other posts with regards to this energy wave, this was seen west of the southern cross, people are still talking and describing what they seen, they all say it was the size of the full moon only fuzzy. i dont think the local radio station would have anything on there site as yet , however I will try to get a link to confirm what I am saying is true. most of the people were a bit scared as they couldnt understand what it was, one poor woman grabbed her husband and wanted to run. there was apparently no noise when the flash of light occured.Another guy said he was walking at 3am ? anyway he ran back home to take a photo, so hopefully they might use his photo if the station descides to keep following up on this story. If this belinda sanders who is the woman representer at this time slot has anything to do with it, then im sure they will, as she is constantly referring back to this story and asking people to keep ringing the ststion with their eyewitness accounts. news report: http://www.abc.net.au/news/items/200...1.htm?southqld JimO adds some links to possibly-related phenomena: http://www.debunker.com/texts/giant_ufo.html http://www.debunker.com/texts/soviet.html http://www.space.com/sciencefiction/...rt_000808.html |

If that's a rocket burn, that's a mighty powerful rocket. Is that one of the Mallegenic clouds in the background? You sure that's it? It looks more like a comet than a rocket burn...the exhaust should spread out far more than that. Pat |
