Massive "Meteor-Like" Explosion Lights Up North Russian Night Sky
A little over a year ago, in February 2013, a meteor traveling at 19 miles per second above Chelyabinsk in the Russian Urals exploded in the morning sky, recorded by countless dashcams, with the resulting shock wave shattering windows hundreds of miles away. Fast forward to this night, when residents of Russia's northern Murmansk region witnessed the fall of a celestial body similar to the famous Chelyabinsk meteorite on Saturday night. It flashed at 02:10 am local time and was clearly seen in the sky. However, no sound of explosions was heard.
Officials say that the nature of the celestial body is unknown, however since there were no warnings of any ICBM tests overnight, the meteor theory is the most valid one. Then again, the major Russian base of Severomorsk, and the administrative center of the Russia northern fleet, is located precisely in this area, so one can see why some of the already percolating theories suggest this may have been nothing but a military test.

Seems to me that the Russians have improved upon the weapon(s) used to destroy the Feb. 2013 'meteor'.
The only alien we really need to worry about is the one in the white house.
ZH: Feb, 2013 meteor was traveling at about 19 km/sec, not 19 miles/sec. Please correct article (not that it really matters though).

Chelyabinsk meteor
Airburst Explained: NASA Addresses the Russian Meteor Explosion
"It hit the atmosphere at a shallow angle of about 20 degrees, at a speed of about 65,000 km/h (40,000 mph)."
"Russia's space agency Roscosmos said the meteorite was travelling at a speed of 30 km (19 miles) per second and that such events were hard to predict. The Interior Ministry said the meteorite explosion had caused a sonic boom."
Not that it matters at all.
Hey Tyler, another banker got whacked yesterday... this time in Belgium.
Good thing nobody in Russia has an itchy nuclear trigger finger yet.
If things keep moving in the same direction, soon we will see meteor over California sky.
They have had a bunch of them, just like everywhere else. Very underreported. Apparently on top of everything else we are entering a debris zone or something. As above so below.
http://www.slab-city.com/2013-california-meteor-video-new/
The earth did pass thru the tail of that comet about 3 months ago. We may be seeing the trailing debris hitting the atmosphere. I have read a lot of articles about an increasing number of meteors over the last few months.
You would have to assume our planet periodically passes thru dust clouds, etc in outer space. We already have the Perseid showers, etc.

Welcome back, New Thor. I was wondering where you had disappeared to.
Germany got one of these 3 weeks ago, it was huge and visible for 16 seconds: http://sattrackcam.blogspot.cz/2014/04/the-bright-fireball-over-germany-...
Even the celestial gods choose Putin over Obama.
Reuters is probably wrong. RT agrees with the Wikipedia link and "Universe Today" quote I gave above.
.
Russian meteorite blast explained: Fireball explosion, not meteor shower
"The Chelyabinsk fireball entered the atmosphere moving at a speed of about 20 km/s"
-----
edit: I would consider this definitive. When above Chelyabinsk (see simulation at Universe Today link in prior post), it was traveling at about 19 km/sec, so this article is wrong ("traveling at 19 miles per second above Chelyabinsk"). Prior ZH article and Reuters could be ok, since one place in Wikipedia says it was traveling at 30 km/sec when it entered atmosphere.
http://www.nasa.gov/mission_pages/asteroids/news/asteroid20130215.html
"Thirteen seconds after atmospheric entry, at 9:20:33 a.m. local time (03:20:33 UTC), the fireball, traveling at a velocity of 11.6 miles per second (18.6 kilometers per second), achieved its maximum brightness just south of Chelyabinsk, Russia, at an altitude of 14.5 miles (23.3 kilometers)."
You forgot to say: "not that it matters"
or "beating a dead horse".

ORI, imagine what the world would look like today if that meteor hat impacted Russia last year... I suspect that the devastation would have been sufficient to knock Russia down to such an extent that Putin could not have blocked the west's aggression in Syria/Iran, nor could Russia have out maneuvered the West in Crimea (and soon Eastern Ukraine). In short, the world would be in a far worse set of circumstances, which has to have one wondering about what really happened in the skies over Russia last year, and how that meteor was destroyed.

The Day After Roswell has 398 reviews on Amazon with an average rating of 4 stars out of 5.
http://www.amazon.com/The-After-Roswell-Philip-Corso/dp/067101756X
A landmark expose firmly grounded in fact, The Day After Roswell ends the decades-old controversy surrounding the mysterious crash of an unidentified aircraft at Roswell, New Mexico, in 1947. Backed by documents newly declassified through the Freedom of Information Act, Colonel Philip J. Corso (Ret.), a member of President Eisenhower's National Security Council and former head of the Foreign Technology Desk at the U.S. Army's Research & Development department, has come forward to reveal his personal stewardship of alien artifacts from the Roswell crash. He tells us how he spearheaded the Army's reverse-engineering project that led to today's:
and "seeded" the Roswell alien technology to giants of American industry. Laying bare the U.S. government's shocking role in the Roswell incident -- what was found, the cover-up, and how they used alien artifacts to change the course of twentieth-century history -- The Day After Roswell is an extraordinary memoir that not only forces us to reconsider the past, but also our role in the universe. (Amazon)
That's BS! I graduated in electronic engineering in 1975, and was able to follow the developments of the first three technologies, from the level thay had in the seventies until today.
I can assure you that the flow of discoveries and improvements, including Moore's law (the fact that computer power doubles every 18 months or so), has nothing to do with exogenous "alien" technologies, but is perfectly consistent with human ingenuity and with the time needed to study and develop things.
The invention of transistors seemed to come out of nowhere after so many years of using and refining vacuum tubes. Just sayin'.....
I don't always listen to music...,
but when I do, I prefer to listen through vacuum tubes.
Same here. I got one of these a few years ago to give my ears a break. No listening fatigue since.
http://www.idealinnovations.biz/elite80+.htm
All the tech that 'came out of nowhere' post WWII was from Nazi Germany. Not outerspace.
see Operation Paperclip
ill do you one better. i spoke with and individual that was called in to try fix the problems that occurred with space shuttle Columbia. i started to put some timelines together and asked him if he ever worked with Wernher von Braun, to which he chuckled, "Of course. All of them." apparently they were a little clickish, and mostly kept to themselves. when there would be tests at the launchpad, all the German scientists would gather together at a certain spot to watch the test/launch. it was dubbed "Kraut Hill".
Yes, of course! The aliens told the nazis! ('cos the nazis would be too proud to admit that they copied someone else and no-one would believe them if they mentioned aliens anyways).
Sorry, it was tooooooo obvious. I just had to say it.
:P
What about Tang? That was used by NASA. Perhaps that was influenced by some alien nourishment system that was discovered in the Roswell crash. They should have made an X Files episode about Tang.
I tend to agree.
EET was my 2nd degree, 1982. you can follow the invention of these devices by reading research histories.
Is it possible we have some kind of UFO? Yes. But the mundane explanation of technology is not "sexy."
Correlation does NOT mean Causality.
Otherwise you could argue that all breakthrough developments in science and technology were caused by aliens.

I support alien theories rather than the theory of a human god son, miracle worker, killed for his good deeds and then resurrected with out any traces but translated into the greatest camp fire story ever told.
The probability that alien life forms with the capacity to travel here more or less unnoticed and possibly take on human form to assimilate is higher than that crock of shit peddled by the "churches". But it's too real and too damning to the superiority complex mankind suffers which is why it is best kept under wraps.
Not only are aliens able to travel to see us, we are not even able to see where they come from. Think about that.
I initially thought it might be Hillary Clinton but then realized it would take a lot longer for all that lard to burn off during reentry.

http://freebeacon.com/politics/the-bigger-they-are/
The royal family show none of the outward signs of having reptilian symbionts. <joking> The purpose of portraying high officials as aliens is to lessen their power by making them objects of ridicule. As ensnared in the system as might be, the royal family doesn't wield enough day-to-day power to make them worth the effort.
Symbols have since ancient times been used as a secret language hidden in plain sight. As for reptiles and reptilians, just consider the history of the symbol and the message becomes more clear.
They are sociopaths. The important point is their lack of conscience.
"...the royal family doesn't wield enough day-to-day power..."
Who the fuck knows who's wielding what anymore! Do heads of states wield power? Rothschillians? Lounge lizards in spandex? Could be the royals, though I'll never be one; it don't run in my blood, which is warm, thank-you.
Does David Icke post here?
I don't know about the Royal Family being reptiles but we sure have a snake in the Oval Office now!!
I have it on the very highest authority that Prince Charles IS a reptile and his true self will be revealed if/when he becomes king.
Prince Charles is a human shaped double satellite dish. He can intercept satellite signals by just pointing his ears to the sky. Who knows, that might be a reptilian trait after all. Wonder if his kid's love for booze also has anything to do with that. You know, reptilians, cold blood. He might need a drink or two to bring up the warmth.
One interesting (advantage)?? of the royal family is that, because it is a "family", there no guarantee that a sociopath will automatically ascend to the top position.
It is based more on luck and chance who you get.
Arguably this arrangement prevents the most powerful and dangerous from "doing whatever it takes" to get to the top position.
Compare this with an executive elected branch composed of one person?
Randomly getting someone to fill the role would work just as well I guess, but then they might not have had the public scrutiny along the way that the royals get?
As long as the royals have no usable power, but occupy the top spot, the arrangement seems to be a rather cost effective workable solution in an odd fashion.
What's happening, general?
Governor, the meteor is just sitting in that crater. We've had it under observation.

Nah. Work out the low hanging fruit first. Then you move on to the harder projects.
Glad the Russians aren't trigger-happy, it would have been ironic if the 'shot heard round the world' came from outer space.
I'm sure the defense contractors are excited, it gives them a reason to pull Reagan's Star Wars plans out of mothballs.
They actually have a history of having not pulling the trigger several times (both due to technical malfunctions and one plain not following orders to shoot: Vasil Arkhipov likely personally prevented WW3.)

Bigger and bit bit out to sea would do the job too, but more collateral damage. How good is his aim?

Blyat!
Russia is testing a ICBM. Multiple trailings would be a MIRV.
They call the community organizer, Barry ahead of time. It's done to rattle Barry and his neocons.
Video of a previous Russian MIRV test
I'd say it looks similar, but more up-close. It's odd that the fireball "goes out" on today's video through, it could just be a large meteor.
Maybe our rulers are sicking their demonic minions on Russia. Obama used to be a puff with Allister Crowley... if they can create history so can I.
US warning to Russia: Back off, Back off.
Looks like an inert ballistic missile test.
Why has everyone in Russia got a dash-cam??
They have the same mouth breather types who like to stage accidents, then sue you for everything you own, The camera is a insurance plus.
Yes, cameras are to insure the well being of insurance companies. flavor of capitalism.
insurance fraud is prevalent
Here is a example of two muts in England trying to work the insurance system.

License plate looks Russian!!!
ding,ding
Can't speak for Russians, but I'm planning to get one in the UK.
Why? Because I've been pulled up more than once by police who deny seeing "why" I carried out a certain maneuver (often late at night) which - absent a good reason - is construed by police as reasonable suspicion of you driving under the influence of drink/drugs etc (in the UK, random breath tests are unlawful, so the police manufacture a reason). Then out comes their breathalyser, looking for an easy catch. Traffic police get browny points for this offence.
With a dashcam you have all the evidence and can lead them into a trap whereby you can prove that they are lying and/or 'driving without due care and attention' for not seeing that other vehicle or wild animal cross the road in front of you which made you swerve etc.
It would only take one publicised incident of blatant police dishonesty for them to back off pulling people up for spurious reasons just to do a breath test.
You'll love Australia - "they" can stop you for no reason at all. We also have the delightful unmarked Police cars doing people for 2-3k over the arbitrary-set "speed limit"; random breath testing is entirely legal, and extremely frequent.
Yet we are well up there in road deaths per capita, and per user kilometre table of infamy.
Can't possibly have anything to do with the "I've got SPECIAL Rights!" mindset that's instilled from kindergarten onwards, can it??
cops are assholes

What is it with Russia and meteors? If they are meteors at all. It seems they have a disproportionate level of activity, especially of late.

The videos are almost all from in-car cameras russians carry for insurance purposes. I'm sure if we covered Africa or an area similarly large to Russia with cameras, we'd capture quite a few of these events elsewhere.
It may be parts of Dragon carier rocket that took off in Florida at 11.25 pm Moscow time.

That pesky Physics and Maths, again.
Video evidence of this one indicates a transit time of ~5 seconds.
Since it is only going to be visible in the atmosphere as it burns up, it's easy enough to run the Maths.
We can look at footage of Columbia burning up over Texas to see how slow re-entry is from LEO at 8 kms per second. This object was moving much faster than that.
Known Meteroid Showers are from 20 to 70 kilometres per second in velocity.
Earth's atmosphere is 100 to 200kms thick.
5 seconds would thus result in an average speed of 20 to 40 kms per second for this object, falling nicely in the middle of known Meteroid Shower arrival velocities.
Bullet 1km/sec
Ballistic Missile 5kms/sec
SR72 7-8 kms/sec
Space Shuttle 8kms/sec
Yesterday's Meteroid 20 to 40 kms/sec
Notice it is moving 5 to 40 times faster than anything on this list?
The only manmade objects at these velocities would be the interstellar Pioneer and Voyager probes and the Juno probe last year and they required planetary fly-bys to get up to those velocities.
This was a meteroid, nothing more.
thank you for the chatham house perps pective.
it a shame about the chatham house rules as it would be simply spiffing to find out how many childs get slaughtered in the basements of those lovely old london buildings.
i here mi5 always video the rituals but they are hardly likely to release what what.
thanks for the math.
since you are an expert does a plasma device exist based on tesla that can bring buildings down.
and how do you explain building 7 office paper burning support structures?
5 seconds...that's how long it took for you to make an error. The consistency of truthers is your one admirable quality.
You are assuming that only paper was burning, that paper burnt support structures, that these weakened structures caused the building to collapse, and that was the sole cause to WTC7 collapsing. So many wrong assumptions and red herrings in one sentence.
I have posted, many times, where the joules came from to destroy WTC7 - they were in the PE and KE of WTC1, north tower, no more than 400 feet away.
Total PE of each tower was up to 250 tonnes of TNT equivalent. 100 tonnes low estimate. From floor 40 and above
~5.0E11 joules of stored PE, created when materials were hauled by crane during contruction in the early 1970's, or ~120 tonnes of TNT. This is the low estimate, others estimate that each floor weighed up to 2.5x times more. This would increase the PE/KE by 2.5x, or 250 tonnes per tower. Two towers, 200 to 500 tonnes of TNT equivalent. A small tactical nuke, IOW.
Go to any online nuke calculator, dial in a o.1 to o.5 kiloton bomb, place it 250 metres in the air at the location of WTC1 and look at what you see - a blast radius that would destroy any structures with a 5psi blast just at the edge of the circle and at that edge?
WTC7
Energy, joules, potential energy converted to kinetic energy. Falling beams and parts of the building ripped a gash in the side of WTC and it was weakened.
But you understand none of this...as I post from Asia, not London.
can you show me the ripped gash in the building would a ripped gash give such symetry
prof can you provide me with other example of such perfect pulling of a building into it's own footprint.
the mossad did 911 prof and all your joules.
controlled demolition you liar you fuck : )
Another fucking asshole.
I've actually never heard that explanation. Or any sensible explanation for WTC7. It certainly didn't look like it had taken a half-megaton blast; there was no shearing off of the outer face of the building, which you'd expect, right?
What about Silverstein on tape saying "pull it"? I'm not a "truther" by trade, but it seems to me there are some major things unexplained here.
http://thewebfairy.com/killtown/images/wtc6/wtc6.h16.jpg
and other nearby buildings.
... and besides that, what magical aerodynamic effect allowed WTC 7 to fall straight down from a lateral blast wave?
... and what % of PE and KE was left after conversion of concrete and steel into dust during WTC 1 & 2 collapses?
And please explain your ideas to these people:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RsKxVTf4YYM
And if you look a bit harder, you may find many other people who could profit from your valuable knowledge.
you are correct, it wasn't man made
We don't know for certain what the origin of the object was. Ever occured to you that meteors especially those really large ones capable of wiping out entire species, could have possibly been huge spacecrafts transporting new lifeforms from another planet? What if our lifeforms today all came from an arc as described in the book of anecdotes? Wouldn't that make a whole lot more sense than trying to explain how the earth submerged under 40 days and 40 nights of rain and how Noah managed to rescue life as we know it?
That's where logic and reason become useful. We can deduce, with a great deal of certainty, where the objects came from via planetary mechanics.
Really, how? How do you want to explain the origin of an object that's either exploded into nothing but dust or slammed into the Earth crust millions of years ago?
You and I are discussing the object that hit Russia yesterday. Focus...if you can.
They don't explode into dust, they incinerate and are combusted and/or explode into fragments that are incinerated and in a few cases make it to earth. Combustion, aka oxidation.
Planetary Mechanics and stellar/solar system formation explain the origin, but I have better things to do than discuss subjects you don't understand.
Later...and go back and pick up your Jr. High School science books. Everyone here seems to be able do add 1+1 only on their smartphones...
Could a meteriote be launched or manouvered as weapon from an alien space ship? Sure it could. Anything is possible. Just that your smarter than though brains doesn't compute beyond the "science" lectured to you. Take it at face value then and die a happy man.

I was pulling into my driveway one afternoon a few years ago when suddenly I spotted a huge meteor with a long trail of black smoke and flames shooting out the back as it fell to earth.
I had never seen anything like it. It was summer so people were out in their yards doing yard work. I looked around for confirmation of what I had just seen but nobody had even noticed, it happened so fast - all over within seconds.
The local news briefly reported it the following day but nobody ever found the object.
I was hoping this was some russian "Fake taxi" porn..
Bath House:
My Serfs, good evening. We have discovered an alien space fleet in orbit. We must immediately form a 1-world government and increase taxes to fight these dangerous aliens!
PMs are the only thing they are vulnerable to! Everyone must surrender their PMs to the bank at once!
FEMA is being ordered into action with the dhs. All your weapons must be surrendered so the army has enough to fight these deadly aliens from the Khazar System, along with all your other stuffs!
just for anyone who cares.
1km/sec is about 2200 or so miles an hour.
most meteors travel between 6km/sec and 30km/sec RELATIVE TO THE EARTH AS THEY PASS BY. once a meteor approaches earth, it tends to speed up as it enters the gravity well of earth, but if it so happens to get close to about 100km above the earths surface , an unstable or dynamic level at which earths's 'atmosphere' transistions from almost nothing to , a transition zone of fast atoms and near empty space that becomes 'outerspace' as you get more distant from the planet.
once it gets to 100km is begins rapidly heating up and slowing down.
due to earths atmosphere----by the time even realtively small meteors 1m across come to the surface, the meteors have slowed down enough that parts of the meteor frequently survive explosions and impacts with the earth or , much more of the time, with the ocean. ( as our ocean is over 70% the surface of our sphere. and the fall of meteors is presumed to be more or less evenly distributed as far as we know.
on the moon, by contrast, without an atmosphere, meteors hit paydirt at full speed and thus create more destructive energy . while the moon, possessing none of the earth's dynamic crustal cycling via tectonic hydrological ciological and chemical cycling processes, is quite possibly a meteor graveyard with buried pieces of meteors going millions of years back.
the earth , may still be better at preserving meteors at they touch down-------
there has been a lot of bullshit about mining meteors in outerspace over the last few years. total bullshit. but if we ever get to the moon, there should be some excellent opportunities to discover more meteor bits and pieces than have ever been collected on planet earth. especially because we will have the technology to locate and identify specific cratering .
craters on the earth don't last nearly as long as they do on the moon.....
( asteroid fanboy here....)
Thank you for the scientific view. So you think that the plans to mine asteroids are bullshit? Don't some of them have quite a lot of precious metals? It seems like someone like Elon Musk could make a venture like that work (I know, I know. The Palestinians were there first).
this is just a light show for entertainment during the intermission, or a preview of things to come.
with easter and all this should be a pretty quiet weekend in eastern europe, but I don't expect that will last much beyond monday.
anyways no broken windows, krugman must be very disappointed.
With all the meteorite activity in this system, it's going to be hard to spot approaching ships.

he did whisper that they'd work together, but uh... yeah, honestly I can't really see what the russian oligarchs have to offer.
"Resistance is futile" kind of thing.
As an amature astronomer, I find that the odds of two meteors falling in so close in proximity on Earth is extremely unlikely.
I also know that the US has a very advanced military weapons research, they spend billions on developing new military technology.
I will venture a guess that the US is sending Russia a message of military might and threatening them to acquiesce or else taste the weapon.
Do you seriously think that Russia would not respond if the US dropped something like that on its territory?
Occam's razor. Russia is the largest country on earth. Probability of two relatively small (volkswagen sized) meteors falling on it in in a couple years are not that low.
Now, I understand why you have a bag over your head. Ha. Ha.
Someone call those idiots in Bunkerville, Nevada. Tell 'em Jesus just came back, he's pissed at the Russians, and the Mormons are up next.
O?! I believe that life goes on...
Northern Fleet forces first identified what they described as an American stealth unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) surveillance aircraft named the RQ-180 departing from Norway’s Stavanger International Airport, Sola (SVG) attempting to disguise its radar image with those of regular departing civilian aircraft.
Northern Fleet signals intelligence (SIGINT), however, was able to track the “controlling origin” of this RQ-180 spy drone to the US Air Force’s 501st Combat Support Wing located in Stavanger, Norway, which supports the Joint Warfare Center (NATO).
The “main targets” of this RQ-180 spy drone, appears to have been Severomorsk which is the main administrative base of the Northern Fleet, and the Gadzhiyevo Naval Base, the latter which is home port for Russia’s two newest ballistic missile Borey-class submarines, the Yury Dolgoruky and Alexander Nevsky.
Oh! You can't be serious! The uneducated American morons want to believe that God is throwing meteors at Russia! Ha Ha.
Anyone else is thinking that too many meteors are falling in Russia, and maybe its time to question whether there is an other explenation about them?
Short term statistical anomaly? Location, location, location? No-one in Antarctica to report meteors from there? But your idea sounds good too. I don't know enough to eliminate any ideas so all options are still on the table.
