It must be true! I read it on SlashDot
From the article:
Space traffic experts are tracking two pieces of orbital garbage that appear to be careening toward each other: A defunct Soviet [military - wle]satellite and a discarded Chinese rocket booster that are expected to nearly miss each other -- with a slight chance of colliding -- Thursday evening.
From CNN:
Scientists are at a loss to explain the atomic explosion Thursday evening. About 250 Miles above the earth, a discarded Chinese rocket stage and a defunct Russian Soviet military satellite collided with what observers are describing as a truly spectacular pyrotechnics display.
If we still had the USSR this would be a great time to start a police action.
I very seldom use the mass media anymore. It has become so biased and unreliable that it's now useless...
ReplyDeleteThe Onion is pretty reliable.
