When I saw the video, my first thought was: "this is as phony as a three-dollar bill. Anybody with even a lick of common sense should have instantly known this was totally bogus. No bolide, no sonic boom, no smoke trail, no electophonic sound, no recovered meteorite, nothing. There's nothing right about this. Just a video where a small rock pops out of a parachute right after its deployed. Who in their right mind would conclude that it was a meteoroid in dark flight? (Besides the dummy astronomer and physicist.) > > Even now people are still saying: "well there's a reasonable chance it could be real." Yeah right! About the same chance as me winning 10 Olympic gold medals, winning the lottery 10 times in a row, getting elected to the US Senate after being knighted by the Queen of England and then marrying Scarlett Johansson. > > > Get Real, > > Phil Whitmer > > Joshua Tree Earth & Space Museum > ______________________________________________ > > Visit the Archives at http://www.meteorite-list-archives.com > Meteorite-list mailing list > Meteorite-list at meteoritecentral.com > http://six.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list Received on Thu 10 Apr 2014 02:02:02 PM PDT |
