no matter where you hit it the particles go forward... basic physics, i'm not saying there are faster things possible but not in this case

Re: 30 Second Update - Russian Meteor Shot Down:CONFIRMED?
The large meteor had associated smaller meteors. A trailing, denser, smaller meteor, partially protected in the slip-stream, continued at a faster velocity than the larger meteor, which was slowed and heated dramatically by friction with the Earth's atmosphere.
 Quoting: MuzzleBreak


A smaller meteor broke up, fell back, and then gained on the meteor fast enough to blow it apart on impact?

Impossible.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 34494403


Think of a large water melon falling straight down, with a shot-put ball falling directly behind it by a couple of feet. Now imagine that they encounter a surface of 40 foot thick down-feathers. What will happen?
 Quoting: MuzzleBreak


First of all, it would be more like a small shot put chasing a bigger one, or a small watermelon chasing a bigger one. NOT a small very heavy object chasing a big, fragile, light one.

If you had two items of the same material and different mass, you may cause them to re-collide with enough air resistance, but the smaller one will never have the force to catch up with and destroy the bigger.

Following in something's jet stream makes you fractionally faster, if you have the same inertia. It can NOT cause the second object to move significantly faster than the first object it broke off from.

Your theory doesn't hold up to physics.

The Projectile that hit it goes off to the right and the meteor continues on its path, busts up into pieces and burns up because of all the extra drag and friction.

The most likely explanation if it WAS in fact "shot down", is a particle weapon. Some sort of laser.

The technology has been around for a while and would be used on multiple platforms, defensive included.

Its hard to see the projectile until it hits and busts through the object.

Then its on fire from all the thermal heat of the impact.

Looks more like a couple of trailing chunks hit each other and one of them rebounded into the larger mass in front.

Detection can track incoming going at 20,000 mph, no problem. However, the meteor by the time you see this video wasnt traveling that fast. The lower atmosphere slowed it down to a manageable speed, and the tracking gave missiles maybe even their airforce time to scramble and intercept. Plausible.,

Re: 30 Second Update - Russian Meteor Shot Down:CONFIRMED?
The reason they keep railguns super secret is because they use Homopolar Generators to power them.


Homopolar Generators make ALOT of current.


And that is exactly what a railgun needs.



But Homopolar Generators are also an over unity device. So they are Classified.


They are the generators in that one movie "Thrive".

Wasn't that related to the Tunguska event? It's more likely that a defense system much more current is in place.

My money is still on a particle beam.

If this guy can light a candle with a refurbished light saber, just imagine what the Russian military can do...

Re: 30 Second Update - Russian Meteor Shot Down:CONFIRMED?
At first I was very skeptical about this but after looking at it again and again you can kinda see something hit the object.

A railgun setup might be your best bet here with unclassified speeds of 11,500ft/s plus and the ability to use an inert object so you don't get the tell tale explosion from a missile.

[link to en.wikipedia.org]

Alternatively the fastest unclassified surface to Air missile I found was the Russian S-400 system with an operational distance of 250mi or more and speeds exceeding mach 12.

[link to en.wikipedia.org]

Also you wouldn't technically need to reach the speed of the meteor itself but only know the telemetry of the object to intercept it.

Also LAZERZ.

There is still he contentious issue of the missile defence system in Poland.

Obama is on a doom trajectory even without this missile/meteor.

I'm listening to the SOTU speech. He talked about strengthening the missile defence systems.

Russia will have noted this.

On Wednesday he will be kept illegally in place by the Supreme Court and will wake up in his own mind as Supreme Leader winning his place by total manipulation of the system.

Russia knows all this.

Re: 30 Second Update - Russian Meteor Shot Down:CONFIRMED?
The real question at this point is Who shot it down.


Was it the russians using their own air defense systems.


Or did we lend a helping hand with an Interceptor ?


Keep in mind that we also had another Meteor explode over Cuba.



Aliens ?


Or perhaps we have always been the Aliens...
