ΠΑΝΙΚΟΣ! ΑΓΝΩΣΤΟ ΑΝΤΙΚΕΙΜΕΝΟ ΣΕ ΠΟΡΕΙΑ ΣΥΓΚΡΟΥΣΙΣ ΜΕ ΤΗΝ ΓΗ!--Artificial Object in Trans-lunar Orbit to Impact Earth on November 13

Artificial Object in Trans-lunar Orbit to Impact Earth on November 13

Get ready for a man-made fireball. A object discovered by the Catalina Sky Survey on Oct 3rd temporarily designated WT1190F is predicted to impact the Earth about 60 miles (100 km) off the southern coast of Sri Lanka around 6:20 Universal Time (12:20 a.m CST) on November 13.

The object orbits Earth with a period of about three weeks. Because it was also observed twice in 2013 by the same survey team, astronomers have the data they need to model its orbit and trajectory, and as far anyone can tell,  it’s likely man-made. 

The first two stages of the Saturn V rockets used to send the seven Apollo missions to the Moon fell back to Earth, but the third stage (S-IVB), pictured here, propelled the spacecraft into a lunar trajectory. Could this be WT1190F? Credit: NASA

Solar radiation pressure, the physical “push” exerted by photons of sunlight, is proportional to a space object’s area-to-mass ratio. Small, lightweight objects get pushed around more easily than heavier, denser ones. Taking that factor into account in examining WT1190F’s motion over two years, the survey team has indirectly measured WT1190F’s density at about 10% that of water. This is too low to be a typical asteroid made of rock, but a good fit with a hollow shell, possibly the upper stage of a rocket.

It’s also quite small, at most only about six feet or a couple of meters in diameter. Most or all of it is likely to burn up upon re-entry, creating a spectacular show for anyone near the scene. During the next week and a half, the European Space Agency’s NEO (Near-Earth Object) Coordination Center is organizing observing campaigns to collect as much data as possible on the object, according to a posting on their website. The agency has two goals: to better understand satellite re-entries from high orbits and to use the opportunity to test our readiness for a possible future event involving a real asteroid. The latter happened once before when 2008 TC3(a real asteroid) was spotted on October 6, 2008 and predicted to strike Earth the very next day. Incredibly, it did and peppered the Sudan with meteorites that were later recovered.

Assuming WT1190F is artificial, its trans-lunar orbit (orbit that carries it beyond the Moon) hints at several possibilities. Third stages from the Saturn-V rockets that launched the Apollo missions to the Moon are still out there. It could also be a stage from one of the old Russian or more recent Chinese lunar missions. Even rockets used to give interplanetary probes a final push are game.

Case in point. What was thought initially to be a new asteroid discoveredby amateur astronomer Bill Yeung on September 3, 2002 proved a much better fit with an Apollo 12 S-IVB (third) stage after University of Arizona astronomers found that spectra taken of the object strongly correlated with absorption features seen in a combination of man-made materials including white paint, black paint, and aluminum, all consistent with Saturn V rockets.

On April 14th 1970, the Apollo 13 Saturn IVB upper stage impacted the moon north of Mare Cognitum. The impact crater, which is roughly 30 meters in diameter, is clearly visible in this photo taken by the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter. Credit: NASA/Goddard/Arizona State University

Apollo 13’s booster was the first deliberately crashed into the Moon, where it blew out it a crisp, 98-foot-wide (30-meter) crater. Why do such a crazy thing? What better way to test the seismometers left by the Apollo 12 crew? All subsequent boosters ended their lives similarly in the name of seismography. Third stages from earlier missions — Apollos 8, 10 and 11 —  entered orbit around the Sun, while Apollo 12, which is orbiting Earth, briefly masqueraded as asteroid J002E3.

The nominal impact point is located about 60 miles south of the island nation Sri Lanka. Given the object’s small size and mass, it will likely be completely incinerated during re-entry. Credit: Bill Gray at Project Pluto

Bill Gray at Project Pluto has a page up about the November 13 impact of WT1190F with more information. Satellite and asteroid watchers are hoping to track the object before and right up until it burns up in the atmosphere. Currently, it’s extremely faint and moving eastward in Orion. You can clickHERE for an ephemeris giving its position at the JPL Horizons site. How exciting if we could see whatever’s coming down before its demise on Friday the 13th!

Νεκρός σε ξενοδοχείο της Ουάσινγκτον βρέθηκε συνεργάτης του Πούτιν

Νεκρός σε ξενοδοχείο της Ουάσινγκτον βρέθηκε συνεργάτης του Πούτιν

7/11/15

Νεκρός σε ξενοδοχείο της Ουάσινγκτον, βρέθηκε ο ρώσος εκατομμυριούχος Μιχαήλ Λεσίν, συνεργάτης του προέδρου της Ρωσίας Βλαντίμιρ Πούτιν, όπως μετέδωσε το αμερικανικό τηλεοπτικό δίκτυο ABC News, επικαλούμενο έναν ρώσο και έναν αμερικανό αξιωματούχο.

Πρώην υπουργός Τύπου της Ρωσίας, ο Λεσίν, ο οποίος κατηγορείτο από την αντιπολίτευση ότι είχε φιμώσει τα μέσα ενημέρωσης στη Ρωσία, βρέθηκε νεκρός μέσα σε δωμάτιο του ξενοδοχείου The Dupont Circle στην αμερικανική πρωτεύουσα την Πέμπτη.

Οι αμερικανικές αρχές ενημέρωσαν για τον θάνατο αυτό τη ρωσική πρεσβεία στην Ουάσινγκτον. Οι αρχές των δύο χωρών προσπαθούν να διαπιστώσουν τις συνθήκες θανάτου του Λεσίν. Το ρωσικό τηλεοπτικό δίκτυο RT, επικαλούμενο μέλη της οικογένειας του Λεσίν μετέδωσε ότι ο 57χρονος Ρώσος υπέστη καρδιακή προσβολή.

Η αστυνομία στην Ουάσινγκτον ανακοίνωσε ότι ο θάνατος αυτός που διαπιστώθηκε την Πέμπτη στη Λεωφόρο Νιού Χαμσάιρ 1500, όπου βρίσκεται το ξενοδοχείο The Dupont Circle, αποτελεί "το αντικείμενο έρευνας".




Ο Λεσίν φέρεται να είχε συμβάλει στην ίδρυση του Russia Today (RT), ενός αγγλόφωνου ομίλου μέσων ενημέρωσης που υποστηρίζεται από τη ρωσική κυβέρνηση, το οποίο δηλώνει ότι θέλει να "δίνει μια εναλλακτική προοπτική στα μεγάλα παγκόσμια γεγονότα" με "μια ρωσική άποψη".

Ο ρεπουμπλικανός γερουσιαστής του Μισισίπι, στις νότιες ΗΠΑ, Ρότζερ Γουίκερ, είχε ζητήσει τον Ιούλιο του 2014 τη διενέργεια ομοσπονδιακής έρευνας για το εάν ο ρώσος αξιωματούχος δεν ξέπλενε μαύρο χρήμα στις ΗΠΑ ή αν ήταν σε επαφή με πρόσωπα τα οποία αποτελούσαν στόχο αμερικανικών κυρώσεων.

Ο Λεσίν είχε διατελέσει υπουργός Τύπου από το 1999 έως 2004 και στη συνέχεια σύμβουλος του Βλαντίμιρ Πούτιν για την ίδρυση του Russia Today. Το 2013 ήταν γενικός διευθυντής της Gazprom-Media, της εταιρίας συμμετοχών μέσων μαζικής ενημέρωσης του πετρελαϊκού κολοσσού Gazprom, θέση από την οποία παραιτήθηκε ένα χρόνο αργότερα.

Ο Λεσίν φέρεται να είχε αποκτήσει περιουσία αρκετών εκατομμυρίων δολαρίων στην Ευρώπη, καθώς και κατοικίες στο Λος Άντζελες αξίας 28 και πλέον εκατομμυρίων δολαρίων.

"Το γεγονός ότι ένας ρώσος αξιωματούχος μπορούσε να συγκεντρώσει τόσο μεγάλα περιουσιακά στοιχεία εγείρει σοβαρά ερωτήματα", τόνιζε ο αμερικανός γερουσιαστής σε επιστολή του προς τον τότε υπουργό Δικαιοσύνης των ΗΠΑ Ερικ Χόλντερ, που έφερε ημερομηνία 29 Ιουλίου 2014.

Το τραγικό συμβάν λαμβάνει χώρα σε μια περίοδο που οι σχέσεις μεταξύ Μόσχας και Ουάσινγκτον είναι ιδιαίτερα τεταμένες.

Saudi king books entire luxury hotel for 18-day stay in Turkey, report

November 07, 2015, Saturday/ 11:30:17

Saudi King Salman bin Abdulaziz, who is due to arrive in Turkey soon for the upcoming G-20 summit, has reportedly rented the entire Mardan Palace Hotel in the southern province of Antalya for his 18-day stay in the popular tourist destination.

The king, who is accompanied by a 1,000-member delegation, will pay $18 million for his stay at the luxury hotel, Hürriyet newspaper reported on Saturday.

The 560-room hotel and villa complex, branded as one of the most luxurious hotels of the world, will be closed to other guests for 18 days.

Red carpets will be laid down in hallways in the hotel and even in the helipad so that the Saudi monarch will not have to touch asphalt when arriving at or departing the hotel.

Hürriyet said the hotel personnel are being given special training and the rooms are redecorated to accommodate the king's taste.

Mardan Palace was acquired this week by Turkey's Halkbank. Built by Russian Azerbaijani businessman Telman Ismailov at a cost of $1.4 billion in 2009, the flashy complex has been put up for sale by an Antalya bankruptcy court for TL 207 million worth of debt that Ismailov owed to another lender, Garanti Bankası.

In a one-bidder tender on Monday, Halkbank purchased the complex for TL 360 million. However, the bank will reportedly only pay TL 207 million to cover the hotel's old debts to Garanti, while it will write off its own receivables stemming from Ismailov's separate debts to Halkbank.

King Salman, head of one of the world's richest royal families, rented every room in the Four Seasons Hotel in Georgetown for himself and his entourage during a visit to Washington in September.

The king's luxurious taste has stirred protests in France this summer, when more than 100,000 people signed a petition against closure of a beach on the French Riviera to allow the monarch to holiday in private.

Howard Carter, Arthur Callender and an Egyptian worker open the doors of the innermost shrine and get their first look at Tutankhamun's sarcophagus.




In 1907, Egyptologist and archaeologist Howard Carter was hired by George Herbert, the 5th Earl of Carnarvon to oversee excavations in Egypt’s Valley of the Kings. Carter had built a reputation for scrupulously recording and preserving discoveries.

Carter searched the valley for years with little to show for it, which drew the ire of his employer. In 1922, Lord Carnarvon told Carter that he had only one more season of digging before his funding would be ended.

Revisiting a previously abandoned dig site at a group of huts, Carter started digging again, desperate for a breakthrough.

On Nov. 4, 1922, his crew discovered a step carved into the rock. By the end of the next day, a whole staircase had been uncovered. Carter wired Carnarvon, imploring him to come at once.

On Nov. 26, with Carnarvon at his side, Carter chipped open a small breach in the corner of the doorway at the end of the stairs. Holding a candle, he peered inside.
At first I could see nothing, the hot air escaping from the chamber causing the candle flame to flicker, but presently, as my eyes grew accustomed to the light, details of the room within emerged slowly from the mist, strange animals, statues, and gold — everywhere the glint of gold.
HOWARD CARTER

The team had discovered the tomb of Tutankhamun, the boy king who ruled Egypt from about 1332 to 1323 BC.

Though there was evidence the tomb had twice been raided by ancient grave robbers, it was still remarkably intact. The tomb was crammed with thousands of priceless artifacts, including the sarcophagus containing the king’s mummified remains.

Every object in the tomb was meticulously recorded and cataloged before being removed, a process that took nearly eight years.

These photographs documenting the discovery of the tomb have been colorized by Dynamichrome for the exhibition The Discovery of King Tut, opening in New York on Nov. 21. With precisely crafted replicas and reconstructions, the exhibit allows visitors to step into exact recreations of three burial chambers just as the discoverers saw them.
