I would also like to know what efforts are being made out west to identify and retrieve debris.
It seems anything found out west would shed greater light on what failed first.
By the time it got in my neck of the woods it had already exploded and was in pieces.
I'm sure we've all seen the (Doppler?), radar shot of the debris field as it settled over Texas. Would it be possible, feasible or worthwhile to go back and check similar weather radar scans starting out west, looking for any signs of debris falling off?
I realize that the radar in Texas was reflecting off of thousands of parts which is why it was so readily visable.
