Satellite Expected to Crash to Earth
| September 21, 2011
What is thirty five feet long, weighs 12,500 pounds and is hurtling towards earth as we speak? Who cares? Scientists say the odds of it hitting you are slim…even though they don’t know where or when it is going to hit.
NASA personnel are keeping a very close eye on some six tons of space junk hurtling toward Earth. The Upper Atmosphere Research Satellite, also known as UARS, is expected to fall out of the sky by the end of this week, and scientists say it will break into pieces as it gets closer to Earth. But where will they land — and should we be worried?
Donald Trump Wants Payment In Gold, Not Dollars
| September 21, 2011
The Donald has just accepted gold bullion instead of cash. According to my colleague at the Wall Street Journal, Trump accepted $176,000 in bullion as a security deposit on space at 40 Wall Street from Apmex, a precious metals dealer.
Trump used the occasion for some publicity, and a dig at the Obama administration. “It’s a sad day when a large property owner starts accepting gold instead of the dollar,” Trump said in an interview. “The economy is bad, and Obama’s not protecting the dollar at all….If I do this, other people are going to start doing it, and maybe we’ll see some changes.”
Former NASA Employee Claims Alien Moon Cities Exist
| September 21, 2011
Former National Aeronautics and Space Administration Data and Photo Control Department manager, Ken Johnston, who worked for the space agency’s Lunar Receiving Laboratory during the Apollo missions has been fired for telling the truth.
Johnston asserts NASA knows astronauts discovered ancient alien cities and the remains of amazingly advanced machinery on the Moon. Some of the technology can manipulate gravity. He says the agency ordered a cover-up and forced him to participate in it. Over the past 40 years other scientists, engineers and technicians have accused NASA of cover-ups and obscuring data.
Tiny Robot to Compete in 140-mile Hawaii Ironman Triathlon
| September 20, 2011
Panasonic will be entering the Ironman competition this year in Hawaii. The entry will be in the form of a miniscule robot fitted with three separate body panels to allow the robot to compete. I don’t think Panasonic expects to win, but a finish would be another milestone for the little robot that already has an impressive list of accomplishments under its little plastic belt.
