Not a meteorite?
Dedicated to surviving the explosion in the sky over Chelyabinsk ...
On the Internet there is a lively trade in fragments of the Chelyabinsk meteorite. Probably, once there is a proposal, there is a demand. However, the fact that the "alien" is really a meteorite, far from all eyewitnesses, of which there were hundreds of thousands, believed. Many are sure that Chelyabinsk was glorified throughout the world an alien flying saucer or a completely earthly rocket. And the city of self -destruction saved the city from a global disaster.
The ends are in the water
As official information from scientists and special services, there really are a lot of questions. The inconsistency of the information of the same source does not add confidence. They say that the population was notified ahead of time, they say that in principle it is impossible to predict such an invasion from space. And the story with an eight -meter moon in the lake near Chebarkul, where the fragments allegedly fell, and completely causes a smile. Scientists in all seriousness draw conclusions about the composition of the meteorite and the level of its radiation, exploring water samples from the lake, into which, perhaps, nothing fell at all. And the hole and joker could do. The Internet is also teeming with jokes. I really like this: "What happened to the meteorite? - He drowned"
About the power of the explosion ambiguous information. NASA calls the figure 300 kiloton, Russian experts talk about twenty. Feel the difference what is called! Regarding the distance from the Earth on which the explosion occurred, different opinions are also expressed.
On the morning of February 15, Chelyabinets Valentin Volgin managed to remove the sky a few moments before the explosion. The only frame was made, and then ...
“Further it began that I don’t remember how I ended up in the room,” the eyewitness recalls. - Closed the balcony door and came to his senses for a long time. The cat was found in two hours ... Look carefully in the photo. No 10 kilometers to the trace-a maximum of one and a half to two. The roof of the neighboring house is very close. Until now, "goosebumps run" in their arms, as he was on the balcony in a T -shirt. The feeling is as if it burned something. Actually, when the ball flew, I looked out the window, saw an unusual mark and went after the camera. He made the first picture from the balcony - and then it rumbled! .. At the time of the explosion, I looked into the viewfinder, and the impression was that the explosion came from this "cloud" - the largest part of it. A very stormy movement was observed there.
Bolid with filling
A familiar explosive technician who asked not to name his name (it is forbidden to give official comments), shares a "meteorite" version, but does not claim the truth in the last instance.
- The situation is very banal for space. There are a lot of such pain and meteorites on the ground. It’s just that the majority burns in the atmosphere, and we call this phenomenon "starfall". This meteorite made his way. I personally saw his flight and explosion. Everything happened at a very high altitude and at a very high speed. There is no question of any Pro and the air defense, since it is almost impossible to respond and have time to send something to our systems. And in space, such systems that are able to catch and catch up with an object flying with the speed of detonation of a high -embrac explosive and above are not established.
- Why then ancient meteorites, including large ones, find in the ground. How could they not explode?
- Those pieces that were whole, they do not explode. On February 15, the explosion most likely occurred because in such boards it was mixed with all kinds, excuse me, shit - metals, stones, ice, gases, including methane, which itself does not explode, but only in conjunction with oxygen. If a piece of meteorite is whole, nothing will happen - it burns and falls. And here, when burning in the atmosphere layers, most likely the volume of gas was released, which in conjunction with oxygen exploded. This is confirmed by a characteristic voluminous outbreak. And then, after a while, a shock wave reached us. Perhaps not one she, because there could be several explosions at the same time or it coincided with the movement of the supersonic wave. But at such a height, I have nothing to say about the supersonic wave. I studied their action only in external ballistics at the artillery school. But we were not given calculations then, they only explained the essence of the process, which in the common people is called the "sound barrier." Although in physics this process is completely different than it all seems to us.
This is my version. But I do not pretend to objectivity. Absolutely one thing: we were lucky! And they saw an amazingly spectacular sight, and they felt its effect, and everyone survived. And the destruction is all only from the shock wave, which has already come here in a clearly weakened form. Everything that was poorly established, or old glazing, suffered.
UFO or rocket?
If you adhere to a "meteorite" version, a number of questions are also raised by a trace left in the sky. Firstly, for some reason he is strictly horizontal, and secondly, heterogeneous, thirdly, fragmented. In a pure sky, we saw a "segment" of the trace.
Roshydromet posted a message about a UFO fall in the Urals in the news feed. Obviously, someone was already fired for broadcasting such an extravagant version. However, many Chelyabinsk residents, especially those who have repeatedly seen unidentified objects over Chelyabinsk, share it. "From 07:00 to 08:00 Moscow time, a luminous train was observed from the flight of unidentified aircraft from the Khanty-Mansiysk Autonomous Okrug. At 07:15 Moscow time on February 15, multiple air explosions were observed over the airfield of Chelyabinsk, accompanied by a sharp chemical smell. During the night, the gaps of the luminous glimmering were observed over the area of the Aerodrome of Chelyabinsk unidentified objects. "
Not alien to the population and missile version. Too a meteor cloud resembles the trace of the engine. Vladimir Zhirinovsky also added oil, accusing Americans of the explosion.
... In the first hours after the incident, when it was possible to find out that everything was in order with relatives and friends, it was only thought of one thing: what about the radiation background? By the way, it was impossible to contact anyone according to the cellular. This is understandable: at these minutes everyone called everyone. According to operators, the load was three times exceeded the load on New Year's Eve. No one of the close dosimeter has. The familiar banker inquired inquired by my health, and I asked him to conduct an independent examination. The bank definitely has a dosimeter of radiation. After some time, he said: "The background is in order." And it was already possible to relax a little. His youngest daughter, by the way, at the time of the explosion was in the kindergarten and received a hit on the hand. The poor thing cried like that! Something was happening in the gardens, the kids were very scared. Low bow to nannies and educators. Here, after all, they themselves are in a state of shock, but the children need to be saved, what a responsibility!
***
... It was a very long and hard day. Returning from work at rush hour, she suddenly caught myself thinking: something is wrong! No traffic jams on the road, at least cars, rare passers-by-this is at six o’clock in the evening! But in the parking lot there was not a single free space. This usually happens only at night. True they say - at home and walls help. Fortunately, everything turned out to be all right with the walls and windows.
Not a single sacrifice! .. Happiness, which is still with difficulty in. How is it possible with so many destruction? It was as if the right hand of the Lord took a colossal tragedy at the last moment, did not allow, defended. If this explosion did not happen in the air, the city would have erased from the face of the earth.
And in the temples of Chelyabinsk at the time of the cataclysm there were services. People continued to pray even after the explosion. Even when the shock wave knocked out the window ...
We are alive. Time to think, to rethink a lot and get better.
