The first half of the article was ridiculously wrong.

The author claimed the meteor “struck earth” 43 kilometers “north” of the air base.

I went back and read the graphics.

The meteor exploded.

43 kilometers ABOVE the air base.

At 54,000 mph.

Hey. I was stationed on Midway Island in ‘75 as USN Seabee . I thought it was paradise. Shark fishing, great diving, made life long friends. I’d love to go back for a visit and some fishing.

Hi.

“Rods From God test.”

Why not? Greenland would be a great place to test them.

You may hit an Eskimo...or an early missile warning site...

5.56mm

NADA, back in the Clinton -Bush-Obama uears, burned up a Mars rocket lander because they fouled up two programs between two contractors by using inches-miles and the Euro metric units used in science papers. So now ALL NASA values are ONLY in metric.

I saw the Independent article but the Independent cannot be posted here, I think it can’t anyway.

There's be no coverage of the event because it wouldn't fit the global warming narrative.

First week of August is one of the best anual events — saw one split apart with a burst like that while in the Boundry Waters in 93.
