Here’s a video of the San Fran meteor. Lots of interesting comments.

Whole lot of snap crackle and pop going down.

Good video of the Russian one,.....none of the US one,....hmm.

Russia Frisco Cuba

All within 24 hours of the 2012 DA14 flyby. One heck of a coincidence.

[BenLurkin]

I’m wondering who that poor schlub ticked off so bad that he got stuck with “guard the ice hole” duty.

[tet68]

That’s what Obama’s secret service men ask each other.
“Why am I stuck guarding this ice hole?”

[dr_lew]

One heck of a coincidence.

Sure is. In computing, when there's a fault and someone says, "didn't you just put a change in?" and you say, "It wasn't my change, my change didn't have anything to do with that." ... it was your change.

Years ago on the second floor of an apartment in Pasadena, we had the window open. The sonic boom from the shuttle pushed the curtains in twice.

The Muslims all over the world would have immediately blamed it on Israel and the U.S., and wWIII cold have broken out.

Obama and his Muslim terrorist buddies need more time to do more destruction to the US before any such war begins. Obama would consider it bad luck for something to have started. Obama hasn't even started the race wars and killing of Americans that they have planned. And don't tell anybody he is a Muslim terrorist, he wants it to be a surprise.

Great satellite pictures.

Yes Ernest. One can with little data presented consider a multitude of options.
I think I will hold off. We'll see where this might evolve into, in due time.

Thanks Ernest and BenLurkin.

Considering that most of the earth is ocean, what are the chances that events like these occur in the middle of the oceans and go unnoticed?

[jpsb]

Very small considering all the satellites orbiting Earth looking for this type of event (Atmospheric/underground-water testing).

[2 Kool 2 Be 4-Gotten]

I thought of this but in this case didn’t they have to go back to the satellite images to find evidence for this event? As in go back and search after the fact?

[SunkenCiv]

70% :’) Maybe not unnoticed, but the crater is transitory.

How would we know the difference? They've been at war with humanity for centuries.

[2 Kool 2 Be 4-Gotten]

Cool! Thanks.

[adorno]

How would we know the difference? They've been at war with humanity for centuries.

They've been in conflict with the rest of the world for over 1400 years, and many parts of the world have been in regional hot wars with Muslims, but, I wouldn't classify those as world wars comparable to what WWI and WWII were. WWIII will be a hot war, involving many countries around the globe.
