Say they pick up nothing over 20,000 ft {appox 4 mi}because it is not pointed in that direction, my question is can something break up at that distance and making the boom sound and show flashes in the sky. If so what size would this have to be to make the boom?
Then I must ask the 6 TM'rs who have seen/heard this, how high up would you approximate it was?for damage to any satellites because something would have to be damaged or out of commission from all this.
