News Analysis: Assumptions made by Astronomers, in this case, by Telescopic Observation primarily, have grossly skewed conclusions about Collisions-With-Earth Frequency. Rather than also incorporating two-decades old widely-known Technology from U.S. Government and Infrasound Sensors globally, it appears they did not. The maxim “Trust, But Verify” was dispensed with?
Fortunately, others, not carrying the baggage of ‘Assured Conclusions’, are using the additional Sensor Technology, to seek the truth. They are a credit to Science.
The estimated Frequency, as well as Energy Release of Meteors approaching us at, per Radar Data, 11 Miles a second (63,730 KPH) [39,600 MPH], demands analysis NOW.
Another interesting element of the “Chelyabinsk Meteor Occurrence” is that there appears to be a lack of public discussion, in written form, about this Detonation and ANY Electromagnetic Pulse [EMP] Emanations. Would not Physics Ph.D.’s of the world even want to conjecture about such a possibility? Is such a subject about Induced Plasmas beyond the contemplation of global militaries?
If further analysis verifies the increase in possible occurrences of Meteors to Earth, then funding must be forthcoming; it is in the interest of everyone on Earth.
The Chelyabinsk Meteor Occurrence was an event to behold.
