At 00:55 UT of August 10th, a bright fireball could be seeing above Castilla La Mancha. This phenomena has been registered with the SMART Project's detectors operated at La Sagra and Sierra Nevada in Granada, La Hita in Toledo and Seville as well as it was registered with the North and Northwest surveillance cameras operated at Calar Alto Observatory in Almería.

Following the preliminary analysis carried out by Professor José María Madiedo (Instituto de Astrofísica de Andalucía IAA-CSIC), and SMART project's PI, this event had an cometary origin, and was caused by a rock which impacted against our atmosphere at an estimated speed of 50.000 km/h.

All of these bolides over Spain and the Atlantic between Spain and Brazil tend to validate Fort's 'Super Sargasso Sea' concept.

The noted weirdologist Charles Fort once hypothesized that there existed what he called a " Super-Sargasso Sea ", a strange dimension where things disappeared to. He suggested when objects mysteriously disappear for no apparent reason, they are actually spontaneously teleporting to this other dimension. Contrawise, things that suddenly appear out of nowhere and then vanish again might also be coming from this Twilight Zone reality. [Link]
( Fort's) first real success and his first "fortean" work, The Book of the Damned in 1919. The "damned" of the title referred to phenomena which science could not explain and which therefore science ignored. In Fort's view, science had become its own orthodoxy, as rigid and inflexible as any religion and just as intolerant of heresy. He needled the pretensions of scientific positivism with a satiric wit.

Rowan Cocoan The South Atlantic Anomaly is there. I'm reading about that at the moment. It's a minor magnetic pole of earth's multipolar magnetic field and as such is capable of sustaining localised aurora and other electromagnetic phenomena if space weather conditions are favourable.

In this part of the world, the ionosphere is a mere 200km above earth's surface, as opposed to its more usual 1000+ km distance elsewhere.

Tsidkenu You're familiar with S0, I presume. That's where I learned about that.

Above, I'm mostly thinking of Fort and his Super Sargasso Sea.

Rowan Cocoan So is human activity on earth being reflected in the heavens or do meteors have a mind of their own?

Rowan Cocoan · 2021-08-11T05:55:30Z

Joyly I honestly don't know.

I keep seeing how bolides, which should be spaced relatively randomly across the globe (with an increased likelihood around the equator) instead routinely are placed over, for example, Spain, for example, seven days apart.

Fort details this in his book about how certain places far from coasts would have inexplicable rains of fishes from some far distant ocean, every other day. . . . Think about it!. . WTF? That's what the SSS is about. If you've not read Book of the Damned, do so; you WILL thank me. I linked it above.

Rowan Cocoan I will bookmark it. I do not know either, but we totally ignore the potential power of the human soul, let alone a bunch of them. I certainly believe one human soul is more powerful than any meteorite.
