What just happened in northwest Louisiana? Unexplained Explosion

Ok the meteor thing is the thing...my husband just came home I went out to meat him and we had a hug lime green fireball come down and break up at the tree line Crescent City CA I saw the monster white one last night so i think the meteors are the thing they are coving. There must be some huge danger to us all for them to be making stuff up!

thing is..we can be told that anything that flashes in the sky is a meteor,
most will believe that explanation.

Found this Youtube video of the explosion of a similar bunker. I can see how the force was directed upwards, which would explain why the trees in the flyover pics were broken off only at their tops. However, I still don't see how anything like this could create a 7200 ft mushroom cloud or burst windows miles away.

You might not, but I do. I'm in Ruston, and just so happen to be an environmental science major. Let me do some asking tomorrow at school and get back with you. PM me some contact info.

Very interesting, I have a friend in Shreveport who said he had saw something, was working 3rd shift at Waffle House and was taking a smoke break and saw something , ( take into consideration this is what he had told me ) we are constantly discussing weird stuff, so it was normal he called me at midnight. Good read though thanks

So what did he tell you he saw?? Did I miss it?

This is my leaning.

I already have said..

Did a Comet Hit Earth 12,000 Years Ago?
Maybe they don't want to scare anyone with the truth that we may be moving through a dirtier part of space these days??

Could explain some of my dreams I have posted here on ATS. I have had at least 3 dreams involving meteorites exploding all over the place amid a police take over... Apparently the government built special roofs in my dreams that made the rocks sort of bounce off..

It turned out to not be so bad, but there was fire all over.. These were not reaching the ground, just exploding in the air..

Who knows, maybe that could actually happen?

Just pulled this info from

Okay, I'll throw a theory in the pot that could possibly explain a few pieces of the puzzle . . .

Something fell from the sky (meteor, UFO, satellite, missle, what-have-you), however the object DID NOT impact - It exploded a few hundred feet above the ground. This would explain . . .
1) The seeming lack of damage at the "bunker explosion" site
2) The reports of hearing 2 explosions - First as the object blew in the air and the second a moment later when the initial explosion impacted/ignited the bunker.
3) Damage to only the tops of the trees in the news video of the site.
It could also explain the 7,200 ft mushroom cloud on radar depending on the combination of what the object was that blew and what was in the bunker.

I wish I could find a link to the story, so maybe someone else will remember the exact details, but a few years back I remember reading an article about newly discovered ruins of an ancient community on an tiny island (possibly in a tropical area, but I'm not sure.) Those resposible for researching the site came to the conclusion that the village was destroyed by meteors that didn't impact, but exploded only a few hundred feet to a few thousand feet above the ground. Anyone else remember this? I think maybe the structures were made of sea shells? Maybe the village was laid out in a circle? I can't remember for certain, but I'm trying to spark the memories of fellow ATSers.

Anywho, so there's my little theory - The issues that remain are . . .

1) What the heck was the incoming, exploding object that state and federal officials feel the need to cover up - if it was just a meteor, wouldn't they just admit that? Supposedly happens all the time, right?

2) What was the OTHER object captured on radar (other than the mushroom cloud)? I know a few ATSers have posted screen caps, if you've seen them. There are conflicting reports - one says it occured before the explosions (incoming object), another says it occured after the explosions (outgoing object). Anybody have clarification on that? Also, does anybody know how big an object has to be to even be captured on radar? It doesn't seem logical that if this was an outgoing object blasted from the "bunker explosion" that it would be large enough to show up on radar.

You know, after watching this video, I got to thinking about just what in the hello dolly was in that minden bunker to absolutely level the concrete bulkhead where the door was as well as nearly flatten the berms around it. Not to mention the entire structure is reinforced concrete buried under thousands of pounds of dirt apparently with trees growing on them no less. That's one spicy meatball. I'd love to see where the door ended up.

I was so excited I see I spelled everything wrong! But I am now thinking along your lines. Most people do not see the kind of meteor that I saw last night and the one we both saw tonight in a life time! The pure green one was spitting and had a tail, the white one was totally weird and not what you expect a meteor to look like but because of the Green one I am pretty sure now that it was.They were both so close and big and bright! Still excited!

SO after poking around I spotted this tid bit:

was outside cleaning out pickup truck, walked toward porch, bright blue light caught my eye, stopped and watched as craft flew from over house toward NW. ran inside, got my wife, but it was gone. hours later, heard loud boom, shook house, news channel reports the same in 40 or so mile raius of my house. NWS reports debris cloud, and debris plume of mile high around dixie inn louisiana. drew as detailed a picture as i could. did not scare me, no terrifyinf feeling, glow was almost warm in nature.

MUFON

You'll have to select Louisiana in the state box. (sorry but there isn't any way to link the exact page of data)

Now I'm not saying that it was a UFO. What I am saying is that it could be an Aurora Craft that crashed.

I sure hope it had nothing to do with the salt mines... but I guess that would be catastrophic.

BREAKING: There certainly seems to be an uptick in meteor activity unlike anything I've seen in previous years.

News Story.

When I heard about this, I called up a logistics company I know about it. They're tied in with FEMA, and often ask for my help with staging for natural disasters. My contact told me, "there were some rumblings about staging for a disaster, but they quieted down almost immediately."

That tells me that FEMA recognized the possible need for disaster relief, but quickly settled on letting things play out on their own. What could they do, anyway? Change some broken windows?

I'm not sure what happened down there. It did show up on the helicorder for Bayou Corne, however:

folkworm.ceri.memphis.edu...

If you look at the bottom of the graph, right around 11:35 you get the P-waves and S-Waves hitting. That would be about right for the reported timing of the blast. So, despite the USGS denial, the blast did show up on seismic data.

Something went boom. Whatever it was carried through the earth as far as New Orleans, but attentuation killed it before it got to Nachadoces or any of the other nearby helicorders (I checked, but I may have missed some). I tend to doubt that this particular boom was the result of an accident in a robotic de-milling facility on an army base. I tend to believe that whatever happened was just a bit outside of the experience of any and all of the involved individuals. And beyond this, I have no hard data.

Interesting thoughts. I have some problems with them, however. The local news reports featured a video from a helicopter flyover, and there was a definite impact crater (with nothing in it) that showed what appeared to be a shallow-angle crash which stopped just short of a freight train which was derailed.

The helicorder in Bayou Corne registered the blast, which means the shock of it travelled through the ground at least 100 miles. I don't know of an above-ground explosion which would convey that far (or farther) without being attenuated out of existence.

Then again, I'm a crackpot nobody, so my opinions lack any sort of authenticity.

I wish to update my original thoughts on the Minden Event.

I have been looking into matters as I usually do and have found something that I wish to share with ATS and others regarding the Minden Bunker explosion. Since it is food for thought, I feel it can only help in adding some needed discussion to this Minden event.

First item is that no meteorite struck a munitions bunker with such precision and blows it up from within a very deep underground bunker. While there may be those that refuse to give this event the proper thought process it requires, I am stunned that no one is thinking about what looks like a meteorite, but is not a meteorite.

A 1950's technology that the RAND Corp. coined as "Rods from God". They were a tungsten steel material rods of metal, some 20 ft long and 1 ft thick that when released from their space based platform they would travel at 36,000 ft per second and would "appear as a meteorite" entering the atmosphere.

This type of space based weapon is my key suspect for the Minden bunker explosion, because it does not produce or create a signature on radar image as a propellant type missile weapon like a cruise missile.

Second is a credible report from a Sheriff who states he saw two flashes seconds apart and then an explosion. His remarks are key, because whatever struck the Minden bunker was powerful enough to send a mushroom cloud over 1 1/2 miles high into the atmosphere.

Rods stinking would do this, but a bunker buster type missile could do this as well for it is a weapon that strikes the surface first with a flash at penetration of the surface and then seconds later it explodes after going deep into the bunker depths. This is also a good candidate as being a suspect in this event.

In just seconds, such a blast blows upward to great heights, because of the deep depth of penetration that the weapon creates on the way down. It is this signature of sorts that could possibly a bunker buster missile that was used.

I, however; do not think such a conventional bunker buster missile was used, because to deliver it would leave a trail of what aviation assets are in the federal air space to deliver it and of course it is controlled air space and so only a weapon that does not have a plane or jet as a delivery system must be used. Also it should be noted that such type of conventional weapon usually have a propellant engine and would travel at supersonic high speeds, but not as fast as the Rods from God.

Look into Rods from God as a weapons system and I am certain that once you realize that such a weapon looks like a meteorite when used and as it enters the atmosphere, you will as I have considered, that it was old technology that someone used to ensure we would not be able to tell who fired it.

This is why "Rods from God" is in my opinion, the weapon that I suspect was used, because it has no engines and looks like a meteorite when it hits earths atmosphere and also because of its high velocity and speed of over 36,000 ft per second, it is known and understood "not to be a missile" per se. if ever detected.

While the next question is whose Rod was it? What nation fired it would be a good question for real leaders in govt or the military, but since I doubt anyone in govt or even in the media is going to investigate or honestly tell us what really happened, we will have to look for answers on our own the best we can.

Last item is the damaged bunker video being shown by aerial helicopter from local media of the supposed site where the blast occurred. It does not match the blast effects reported, or the witness reports of what was seen and of the 7,000 ft mushroom cloud that went up into the air.

I feel what coverage the TV media is currently showing us as the blast site, is for deception or because they are too dense to know any better and believed what the govt PR men told them to report.

Rods from God, an old RAND corporation weapon system is to me what we need to consider. Since proving this will never be easy, we will have to at least consider Rods, if we want to better understand what could have hit the Minden bunker into exploding as it did.

Here is a link as a starter background on those "Rods from God."

Thanks again for the thread. I hope this adds to the discussion.

Dang, Max!


I've been waiting all day to get on my PC to suggest a "God Rod", and just moments before I log on, you post the same idea!

I'll chalk it up to two great minds on the same wavelength.
