"If the reports of ground damage can be verified, it might suggest an object whose original size was several meters in extent before entering the atmosphere, fragmenting and exploding due to the unequal pressure on the leading side vs the trailing side (it pancaked and exploded)," Yeomans told SPACE.com in an email. "It is far too early to provide estimates of the energy released or provide a reliable estimate of the original size." [Photos of Russia's Meteor Fireball Blast]

Does anyone know if one of Russia's missiles intercepted the meteorite and broke it into pieces before impact on earth?

I'm thinking it would be damn near impossible for any missile defense system to intercept something travelling 33,000 mph.... Since most 'missile defense systems' are designed to intercept ICBM's, and the fastest 'missile' known to man, is probably the LGM-30G Minuteman III, which has a terminal phase velocity of around 15,000 mph... Close to half the speed the Russian meteorite was travelling.

Wouldn't happen.

As I feel what came down in Russia was some of the debris around the Meteor that was propelled from the force and speed of DA-14 coming around are bend of the galaxy.

I'm not a scientist i'm just thinking out loud~

Please refer to the website linked (previously and here) which show the trajectory.


They would have had to have made a monumental error in initial calculations if they were to correct them now and find it would indeed hit the earth.

It won't.

there is also new imagery there of the asteroid as seen by Australia.

Yea, about NASA, you would expect NASA would be making a statement or so?

"Expect"? Surely you're jesting. NASA is the bane of my existence. They couldn't be more clandestine if they wanted to be

If we know alien technology/UFOs exist that means by pure deduction, NASA knows too. However, they ain't talking. So suffice it to say, they wouldn't admit to blowing up a celestial body because as far as we know, they can't. But we know they are at LEAST hundreds of years more advanced of what they have us believing.

It's been estimated that to every 1 year that passes, NASA (or whatever organization it is...) leaps ahead 40 years.
So theoretically, we're not just 66 years more advanced from the 1947 crash(s). We're thousands of years more advanced.


Did Mr O pay homage to this thread yet? Once he does then--- all my suspicions come together automatically.

From looking at this video



It sure sounds like AAA fire, but probably just secondary explosions?

Lots of pages so easy to miss but basically less than 10% of the Earth asteroid threat has been located. The other objects have simply been too small to spot, although there are all sorts of new satellites to send up in the not so distant future.

Basically, if it is an ELE type asteroid we will see it coming. If it is anything smaller then a good chance we may not.

I get what you're saying Flavian. But if I am sitting in a blind for duck hunting, my eyes are already on the sky, as far as I can see in all directions. I notice every bug. With all of NASAs and other countries space technology, all the radar detection equipment, it didn't help one bit. Too small should be sometihng you can hold in your hand, not something bigger than a car.

Yes, that's an asteroid crashing through our atmosphere and apparently breaking into 2
pieces and causing a sonic boom over that Russian neighborhood.

He did, he did And I was being sarcastic =p.

Yeah, I agree this may be one site where a part of the meteor hit, but it just doesn't hold water. If that thing could do as much damage as it did, blowing out windows, taking out buildings, injuring hundreds, there's a much larger crater somewhere. Afterall, the government isn't sending thousands to inspect a hole this size. There would be major damage around such a landing site - at least in my humble opinion, I would think so.

Early on, yes he did ...

The ESA folks says that the impacts are not related to DA-14

On the same note they didn't see this coming and have only observed the main body of the Asteroid...... they weren't' looking for a debris field...... Something tells me.... they will be now

It was an air explosion of a 10 tonne meteor. The bits left to make those impact craters would have been small - certainly nowhere near to 10 tonnes.

after first claiming it was true through an unofficial official military source

I understand and my eyes are rolling with you but just like the numbers of casualties keep rising so are the official statements steadily trying to unify it all. If it was true, Russians would be all over the msm by now bragging about being the best meteoritekickass nation of the world.

Here's a link to the BBC coverage of the event...

www.bbc.co.uk...

This event is not to be connected to Asteroid 2012 DA14 flyby today as the Russian event was in the North, whilst DA14 is approaching from the South. The Russian meteorite cannot be fragmentary parts of DA14, but this is not to say that DA14 is not dragging some fragments of its own?

DA14's closest approach will bring it within 27,700kl (17,200 miles) of earth, and is well inside the geostationary orbit of the 300 or so geostationary satellites at 35,500kl (22,500 miles).

Here is another BBC link for Asteroid 2012 DA14...

www.bbc.co.uk...

It will not impact earth!

@Gutterpuze
You know I have been thinking the same, so far we have only see one of the 6 impact craters ( the one in the ice ).
If u look at some of footage, the speed and size should have been huge, i mean did those 900 people work in glass-land ?
All of the injured by glass... lol.

Not necesarilly, if it spent the vast majority of its mass/energy into its mid-air explosion, causing all the damage you've listed.

I think an F-22 passing through the sound barrier over a neighborhood in Las Vegas
would have similar results.

This is crazy! Aren't early warning system is there to forewarn us? This just goes to show how unsafe are we if anything stikes earth. Good thing tho the meteor blew up before it the ground but there few who got injuries.

Airspace accident, missile, something like that.

Homeslice www.abovetopsecret.com... yes, those look and sound like today's event (from descriptions I read elsewhere.)

By the way peeps, the Urals (where the object exploded) are in the western part of Russia and those 6.+ quakes today (still quaking there) are over on the Northeast area. The quakes have been going for almost a day now.

And yes, Da2014 is something else ... still 18 more hours before we get to watch it live events.slooh.com...

I'll take that bet. You guys do this every time. Sometimes an event is exactly what it seems. It's fun to speculate, but the stuff some of you guys come up with sometimes is just ignorant conjecture. You so desperately want it to be something contrary to the actual story. I'm not an expert, and I'm willing to say none of you are either. Nothing in any of the videos I've seen appears to be abnormal. I know there will be quite a few that disagree with me, but let's face it, some of you are abnormal.
