shetlandpeat Posted October 28, 2009 Report Share Posted October 28, 2009 SUNSPOT UPDATE: Since it emerged last weekend, new-cycle sunspot 1029 has become the biggest and most active sunspot of 2009. It is crackling with B- and C-class solar flares and putting on a good show for amateur astronomers. This one sunspot does not put an end to solar minimum, but it is a remarkable break from the calm. INDONESIAN ASTEROID: Earlier this month, with no warning, a ~10-meter wide asteroid hit Earth's atmosphere above Indonesia and exploded. The break-up was so powerful, it triggered nuclear test ban sensors thousands of kilometers away. A just-released analysis of infrasound data shows that the asteroid detonated with an energy equivalent of about 50 kton of TNT, similar to a small atomic bomb. This significant impact has received relatively little attention in Western press Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GypsyScy Posted November 12, 2009 Report Share Posted November 12, 2009 Here's hoping for a clam clear sky next Monday / Tuesday, supposed to be one of the better meteor showers of the modern age. Asia is to be the best seat in the house so to speak, but hopefully the conditions will be right for us to catch a glimpse of something. http://leonid.arc.nasa.gov/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KOYAANISQATSI Posted November 22, 2009 Report Share Posted November 22, 2009 Meteor lights up early morning sky, alarms Utahns http://www.ksl.com/?nid=148&sid=8714738 "At first I saw a little bright light, it was yellow, after about five to ten seconds it turned into a giant green fireball that was probably about the size of the moon. It was pretty amazing." NBC affiliate in Salt Lake City, reported the ground shaking as it zipped through, one viewer claiming it even shook his outside door open. Could anybody who still manages to hang onto the precious Einstein model of Conventional Physics, please explain why these things seem to keep shaking up the ground while still high in the sky? Take your time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe there is a purely physical reason - like gravity, or something. Or maybe the gods are displeased with us? The end is nigh - It's a sign!

I know nothing about old Albert's theories, I never read his book, but surely the shock waves have to dissipate someplace. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KOYAANISQATSI Posted November 23, 2009 Report Share Posted November 23, 2009 You don't think that's a lot light and displaced air for a rock the size of a microwave, burning up through friction? Plasma Z-pinched for the win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghostrider Posted November 23, 2009 Report Share Posted November 23, 2009 Okay, estimated to be far bigger and far closer, but.... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tunguska_event Shock waves travel easily through air, a chopper going overhead at a few hundred feet will make the contents of your house rattle like a stereo with the bass cranked full up was playing in the room. An ATP on reverse thrust made the tin bars in the Tower ceilings rattle a couple of hundred yards away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trooter Posted November 23, 2009 Report Share Posted November 23, 2009 Anybody see trails in the sky just before midday today? This is the 2nd one in ten minutes. The upper end appears reddish. http://i290.photobucket.com/albums/ll278/Gorwad/IMG_1203.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KOYAANISQATSI Posted November 23, 2009 Report Share Posted November 23, 2009 ^What the hell am I looking at? How did they form, dissipate? from top to bottom or what? There was a couple of chemtrail planes out today but they leave nothing like that. Just the usual horizon to horizon, long stay, slow spread streaks. Good pic btw.

trooter Posted November 23, 2009 Report Share Posted November 23, 2009 Sorry didn't see them form or dissipate, but 1st one was still there but spread out when i spotted 2nd one. It can be seen in this pic to the left of the grey cloud. No sign of any planes at the time.http://i290.photobucket.com/albums/ll278/Gorwad/IMG_1204.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghostrider Posted November 23, 2009 Report Share Posted November 23, 2009 ^^ I think its just a section of a standard vapour trail. If blow up the pics and study them you can see that where its visible the cloud is thin, it appears from behind or within the bank of cloud that stretches down to the horizon, then vanishes again within or behind the darker cloud.
