I did a search before posting. I heard it on a podcast and looked it up. Hope I don't get scorched for using the Examiner...

Thanks for posting. I hadn’t heard about this. Don’t worry about using the Examiner, it’s articles are posted frequently these days. More reliable than the Wa Post.

There was no damage, but the base laundry is working overtime.

Do they even threaten Airmen with being stationed in Thule Greenland anymore?
To: waterhill
I got to Thule on June 14th. It was midnight, broad daylight and snowing lightly. I went to the Top of the World club for a meal and there was a sign by the entrance that read, “Sunset - August 23rd.”

The Air Force needs to recalibrate their equipment.
They missed this re-entry vehicle.

Thanks for posting this. The article I read early was along the lines of “Why is the air force hiding mysterious blast at Thule?”

"The fireball incident occurred just miles from the remote military base on July 25 and entered the atmosphere with a 2.1 kiloton force, according to the NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory. The atomic bomb dropped on Hiroshima was 15 kilotons."Typical example of how news becomes 'fake news'.
The landing wasn't "just miles" from the base, it was 30 miles away. This is a known fact. "Just miles", though, sounds a lot closer than "30 miles". And why the comparison with the Hiroshima atomic bomb? That helps spread the paranoid fear of atomic bombs.
An atomic bomb blast "just miles" away is quite serious, but it would NOT be the end of the world. There are many who would like you to believe that it would be.
