We already have an explanation that fits the description of the dust trail, and accounts for it perfectly (if you read my post on the previous
page).
Why complicate things by introducing an element that we have no evidence of whatsoever? Perhaps Greenland and Afghanistan also have "domes of
protection" ?
You guys are really clutching at straws if you think remote places in Alaska, Afghanistan and Greenland are protected by "shields"... why would they
be? Most of these regions are sparsely populated at best!
I think it should also be re-stated that events like this are common place, and happen all of the time. Most people don't appreciate just how many
small-medium sized rocks enter our atmosphere on a daily basis. We are constantly bombarded by them, and there's not much we can do about it,
especially with the small-medium sized rocks which are virtually impossible to track since there are so many, and they are usually dim.
It's only very recently that we have for the first time been able to track a small object just before impact. This was a one off, and they were
barely able to predict the location/time of the impact - certainly not to any degree that would enable a star-wars type program to intercept and
destroy it. That is still in the realms of science fiction, although that could change in the coming years.
