Absolutely amazing. The kind of thing that needs to be trumpeted from the highest mountain top (in my opinion, anyway).

Radar track of shuttle breakup from Shreveport, Louisiana.

NWS Shreveport to see another radar loop. This must be the contrail or ionized air or something. I don't think there's any way for the shuttle debris to cover this large of an area.

Oh ... oh... that is so ...argh... I can't even express how that radar image makes me feel. Despondent is the closest I can get.

F-15s flying overhead now... Never seen them in this area before. Mostly A-10s and F-16s in the past.

Embarrassed to call them fellow Americans, 1st Amendment or not. They're not Americans - they hate this country. How can anyone who loves their country be so filled with venom.

A gentleman on FOX just mentioned, FWIW, unconfirmed reports that the Israeli colonel on board the shuttle may have been one of the pilots involved on the raid on the Iraqi reactor back in the early 80's.

I think the round, green-yllow patch is the Dallas metro area. I'm guessing the red streak is either a storm front or the trail of the falling shuttle.

The president has supposedly said that there is not way it is terrorism. I hope that is an accurate statement. I am inclined to believe that.
What's sick is that some people seem to
hope it was.

The DUmbasses think that just because the Arky Bastard used OKC bombing for political advantage that GWB would do the same with this. They have no brain, heart or soul. They're just carbon-based beings.

Bad decision, imo. Why do we need to hear this garbage? What POSSIBLE purpose can it have beyond inflaming people here? Is that really necessary for those who are feeling genuine grief and/or shock? To me, this is like allowing people into the funeral services who you KNOW are just there to spit on the participants.

Oops. Thanks yes, I meant feet not miles. I'm all shook up this morning.
To: bonesmccoy
Well, all I can say is that whoever shot that video, and did the zoom of the shuttle, has a clear outline of the shuttle from back to front. The camera is focusing on the rear of the shuttle. My question is, what type of camera was this guy using because it had one helluva zoom on it.

That one too... depressing. :-(

Thanks for that information. I'm sure we're going to hear all kinds of rumors before this weekend is over.
Good to dispell them when we can.
