The video looks real to me. I don’t believe that a meteor could fly so slow so what are they ? https://anomalien.com/across-all-the-wo ... the-skies/

Been slowed down a lot, but that looks more like some of our space junk falling, an old rocket booster, or something.

That had occurred to me too. Perhaps NASA doesn’t know about all the space junk up there and therefore can issue warnings.

There is people mapping the junk, but they are not even close to finding it all.
A guy the other day found an old satellite that was thought to be gone, and dead.
They call them Zombie satellites.

Yeah, and just for that day.
Could be one is rounding the sun straight on for us. :laugh:
It would be something to see a rogue planet come through, the gravity from it would disrupt a lot of stuff, maybe destroying everything in it's path.

I wonder if Bennu would disintegrate into its small rock composition and become a big fireball with all its small rocks burning in the atmosphere of Bennu were to hit earth. It’s rocks must be different than earths. Perhaps it can be mined one day.

A lot of it would, but those bigger parts, and the core would not, and would make quite a mess for people.
I think it would leave quite a mark on land, not so much in the waters.

The bible prophesises that one third of humanity will f do ie in one day. Perhaps a meteor will be the cause. The bible also prophecises that stars will fall from the sky. Shooting stars are meteor and incoming meteors would look like stars falling from the sky. Did any language two thousand years ago have a word for meteors ?

Comet stars is what some Romans called them, but I don't know how it's said in Latin.
A lot thought they where angels, gods, and demons, or just doom. :teehe:

I’ve stayed in Golden many times. This just happened, a woman there woke up and found that a meteor had crashed through her roof and landed on the pillow beside her. This must be a first in world history. https://strangesounds.org/2021/10/bc-wo ... illow.html

Well that could have hurt.
Years back we had one do that here in our city, crashed through, and landed next to the bed I believe.
Nobody hurt, but came close I guess.

Maybe the people need to reflect on what they did wrong being that close. :laugh: maybe Karma is telling them something.

Maybe this happens more often than we know and when this happens it doesn’t get the publicity that you’d expect these happenings to get.

From NASA https://www.nasa.gov/pdf/741990main_ten ... _facts.pdf

Ten Facts About Meteors
1. A meteor shower occurs when the Earth passes through the trail of debris left by a comet or
asteroid.
2. Meteors are bits of rocks and ice ejected from comets as they move in their orbits about the
sun.
3. A meteor that reaches the ground it is called a meteorite.
4. Meteor showers get their names from the constellation in where their radiant is located.
Perseids come from Perseus, hence the name Perseids.
5. Comets continuously eject material with each passage around the sun; this replenishes the
shower meteoroids.
6. Approximately 30 meteor showers occur each year that are visible to observers on Earth. Some
of these showers have been around longer than 100 years. For example, the Perseid meteor
shower, which occurs each year in August, was first observed about 2000 years ago and
recorded in the Chinese annals.
7. Meteors are sometimes observed with red, yellow or green trails. The colors are caused by the
ionization of molecules - like oxygen which appears to be green.
8. A fireball is a meteor that is brighter than the planet Venus.
9. Radar indicates there are 12,000 meteors on a given night that are about the size of a piece of
dust.
10. The International Space Station has shielding to protect it from meteors up to an inch wide.
