Texsox Posted February 16, 2013 Share Posted February 16, 2013 I read that the last time an meteor that size hit Russia, the Cubs won the series. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You need to specify a size for this to be accurate. Meteors hit everywhere quite regularly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ptatc Posted February 16, 2013 Share Posted February 16, 2013 QUOTE (Swingandalongonetoleft @ Feb 15, 2013 -> 01:36 PM) I was just reading the other day that there is "outrage" that the Blue Angels and Thunderbirds are on shaky ground in regards to budget./funding, and how that "outrage" would most likely prevent it from actually happening because they are "beloved". It's gotta come from somewhere... If you are an aircraft enthusist there is not much better than either of those. It's really a thrill watching them. I've seen each one a few times. They could charge for their own airshow and make a ton of money. It would probably impact the number of kids entering the military for pilots but probably not worth the cost. As we saw with Mayor Daley's behavior, government does really value sport aviation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know if I would call myself an aviation enthusiast, but I definitely consider it to be one of my interests. Much more (almost entirely) civil aviation than sport/military, but I understand what you're saying- it does have it's place. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2nd_city_saint787 Posted February 16, 2013 Share Posted February 16, 2013 First the Pope resigns, then lightning strikes the Vatican the same day, and now this?? All the world is mad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kyyle23 Posted February 16, 2013 Share Posted February 16, 2013 I thought it was funny that a russian newspaper claimed that they shot it down. Sure, you guys mobilized fast enough to shoot down a meteor traveling 33,000 MPH that nobody knew was coming. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
