ELENIN:Article: Military Hush-Up: Incoming Space Rocks Now Classified!! and SETI shutdown!
[link to www.space.com]

For 15 years, scientists have benefited from data gleaned by U.S. classified satellites of natural fireball events in Earth's atmosphere – but no longer.

A recent U.S. military policy decision now explicitly states that observations by hush-hush government spacecraft of incoming bolides and fireballs are classified secret and are not to be released, SPACE.com has learned.

The satellites' main objectives include detecting nuclear bomb tests, and their characterizations of asteroids and lesser meteoroids as they crash through the atmosphere has been a byproduct data bonanza for scientists.

If aliens come calling, we might not hear them.

The San Jose Mercury News reports that the SETI Institute — the one made famous by the movie Contact — has put its program to find alien life on hold. In an April 22 letter SETI sent to significant supporters, Tom Pierson, SETI's CEO announced that beginning this week, the Allen Telescope Array "has been placed into hibernation due to funding shortfalls for operations of the Hat Creek Radio Observatory (HCRO) where the ATA is located."


PIN!.They knew it since 2009.

ELENIN is different!

They really are making sure the population at large has no way of verifying info with regards to anything that may be incoming. If they thought not being able to see what's coming would stop the average Joe from seeking the truth. They are wrong. This just makes people dig deeper and more tenaciously than ever.

A completely useless, nonsensical string of grammatically correct words. Especially in view the damn thing IS SHUT DOWN for the time being - therefore NO DATA is flowing anywhere except the diarrhea from this guy's mouth!

The USNO satellites point toward the Earth...so they are useless in detecting incoming objects. SETI only works with RF so totally useless to detect incoming objects.

As for detecting asteroids, there is a large community of amateur astronomers whose sole goal is to detect asteroids (they make it a contest of sorts to see who can detect new ones).

Lol, you're the one talking out of your ass. Learn the difference between science and science fiction.

You keep spamming these retarded "Elenin is Nibiru", "Elenin is high mass", and the latest "Military Hush-Up: Incoming Space Rocks Now Classified!! and SETI shutdown!" threads with no FACTS.

Then you call other people "low IQ" for questioning them.

Seriously, are you like 12 years old or something?

Has nothing to do with objects in space such as Elenin. This article is purely about spy satellite observations of fireballs that were already burning up in the earth's atmosphere. It never had anything to do with classifying objects in space headed towards earth because the data was all about objects that were already in earth's atmosphere. I really don't see how you could even try to stretch the Allen radio telescope array into a story about Elenin, but whatever.

Question is why they are doing it? Classified means not for public meaning it could introduce disturbance. Why? Is there possibility some continent fireballs will fall and no one should know?
