The first Air Force mission of the X-37 ended last year on December 3, 2010 after 224 days in orbit, but the second X-37B flight is still on orbit and the mission has been recently extended beyond the planned 270-day duration (see link below).
Thanks!
“those pesky work accidents”
Obama will probably send a team from OSHA to make sure this doesn’t happen in the future.
Geessshhh...I wonder how that happened.
Shalom!

I think if the Iranians had the slightest clue that these explosions were anything other than bungled handling of dangerous materials by Iranian workers, they would have launched already. The hand of God has a very low radar cross section, eh?
“Let them be turned back and be brought to confusion that devise my harm.” - Psalm 35.
Are you suggesting a miracle if your in the West or a curse if your from the Axis of Evil? We need more mysticism. Whenever my five year old son asks me questions about things I do not fully comprehend I always tell him that God did it or God made it that way.

She: Can you drive a nail through a board with your erect penis?
Val Kilmer: Not right now.
She: Well, a girl has to have her standards.
Somebody set us up the bomb!
Could it be...30,000 ft?...super bunker busters?
This is good.

Kudos to whomever whacked that "Malar-Bid Kaneh rocket site! Nicely done!
There are three distinct "centers of explosion", and all structures within the "ring road" are totally destroyed or extensively damaged. Four buildings totally vanished. Blast was intense enough to "lay over" many of the trees to the left of the soccer field.
Interestingly, one of the blast points was inside the high-roofed main bay of the building at lower left... Also, they must have moved that yellow motor crane before the blast(s) -- so that it survived, or brought in another one for cleanup.
I'l be glad when Google Earth adds an "after" shot to its "Historical Images" slider... Their resolution is superior to anything I've seen posted on FR. Besides, I prefer to apply my own custom convolution filters...
If it had been bombed, Ahmawhackajob would be all over the airwaves pounding on tables and denouncing the "Great Satan and the Zionist Entity" at the top of his lungs, his fists making the shards of US-labelled bombs found at the site dance on the table, and that only if he hadn't launched a barrage of missiles against Tel Aviv already.
Given this, I'm wondering if it might really just have been a forklift driven into a pile of detonators by a bungling blue collar Iranian.

Those pictures are not of the nuclear facility at Esfahan. those pictures are from the earlier explosions near Tehran.
Well they may not have found anything yet. A 30,000 lb bomb that comes in at the speed of sound or so, and penetrates the ground by 100 ft, may not leave a lot of evidence.
At those speeds, you could barely see it coming in the daytime, never mind at night.
Or it might have been a nondescript tungsten rod coming in at 36,000 feet per second.
In each case, they were all clearly labeled 'ESFAHAN' from the source. Are you sure?
Do you mean all the pictures, or just the last set?
