Picture this: A 10-meter wide asteroid hits Earth and explodes in the atmosphere with
the energy of a small atomic bomb. Frightened by thunderous sounds and shaking walls, people rush out of their homes, thinking that an earthquake is in progress. All they see is a twisting trail of debris in the mid-day sky.
This really happened on Oct. 8th around 11 am local time in the coastal town of Bone, Indonesia.
The Earth-shaking blast received remarkably little coverage in Western press, but meteor scientists have given it their full attention. "The explosion triggered infrasound sensors of the Comprehensive Nuclear-Test-Ban Treaty Organization (CTBTO) more than 10,000 km away," report researchers Elizabeth Silber and Peter Brown of the Univ. of Western Ontario in an Oct. 19th press release. Their analysis of the infrasound data revealed an explosion at coordinates 4.5S, 120E (close to Bone) with a yield of about 50 kton of TNT. That's
two to three times more powerful than World War II-era atomic bombs.
The asteroid that caused the blast was not known before it hit and took astronomers completely by surprise. According to statistical studies of the near-Earth asteroid population, such objects are expected to collide with Earth on average every 2 to 12 years. "Follow-on observations from other instruments or ground recovery efforts would be very valuable in further refining this unique event," say Silber and Brown.
Comment: We suspect that about 30 or 40 years ago word came down from higher up not to report any more anomalous observations in the skies from the public, coincident with the UFO cover-up. About two years ago spaceweather.com also reported a huge fireball seen over Portugal, Spain and France. A Lexis-Nexis search of all English language news produced no mention of it in the mainstream media in the following days.

Just this week the internet was ablaze with reports about a fiery meteorite filmed in a field in Latvia.
One of the newspapers carrying this story completely changed its reporting of the event within hours of breaking it, deciding that it was a hoax because the impact crater was just "
too tidy." We suspect this event was a genuine meteor impact, but that damage control went into overdrive to cover it up.

[I]t is perhaps not so widely appreciated that the witchhunts and political upheavals of the seventeenth century in England - which modern authorities sometimes look upon as archetypal in respect of the circumstances which generally give rise to revolution - were directly attributed by contemporaries to the unsettling effects of an (observed) celestial circulation: these contemporaries speak of celestial signs which were deliveries of "God's providence" and which were evidently mediated by "God's revolution".
After the Krakatao volcano erupted (in Indonesia no less) the entire island converted to Islam. One can only imagine what a similar comet or asteroid event would do to a country such as the US. What better way to condition them to be obedient slaves by frightening them with controlled, preemptive, color-coded "terrorism" and blowing up a few skyscrapers.
How is it possible to have a solid object that has exploded with megaton force create any singular “contrail” much less one that follows no simple course of trajectory?
