Heads Up - Heaven's Junk is Falling! (Addendum)

Hubble telescope may stay blinded due to Iridium debris.

Universe Today, a space and space technology related site is reporting that the mission to repair the Hubble Telescope is jeopardized by the space debris cloud that resulted from the collision of the Iridium 33 satellite and the Russian Cosmos 2251 satellite.

The Hubble Space Telescope repair mission, STS-125 seemingly gets bad news after more bad news. The mission was already delayed due Hurricane Ike in 2008, and again when a data handling processor on the spacecraft failed. Now, the mission may be too risky for both spacecraft and astronauts following the collision of the Iridium satellite and a defunct Russian communications spacecraft last week. There may be too much debris floating around close to Hubble's orbit, breaching the safety limits NASA has in place. Without a servicing mission by a space shuttle crew, currently targeted for launch in May, the telescope is not expected to last more than another year or two.

So the Hubble Space Telescope may be dead before 2011!

Other debris in that orbit includes pieces of a satellite that China blew up in 2007 as part of a missile test, adding hundreds of pieces of potentially hazardous debris.

A decision about whether to proceed with the Hubble repair mission could be made in the next week or two, Nature reports.

First we had Hurricane Ike and the science data computer issue of September 2008 which delayed repairs.

Art Whipple, the Hubble Manager has stated, after the September 2008 mission delay, "It's unclear how long the telescope will be prevented from transmitting its stunning photos of the cosmos."

Now the satellite debris clouds may prevent a mission altogether?

The conspiracy theorist in me really wants to ask....
What is it that They don't want researchers using the Hubble Telescope to see??

Something that requires over several billion dollars through two separate money injections under the guise of economic stimulus, maybe?

In other news...
Cardinal Giovanni Lajolo, the President of the Pontifical Commission for the Vatican City State, is set to visit the Steward observatory next week.

His Eminence Giovanni Cardinal Lajolo, the President of the Pontifical Commission for the Vatican City State, will visit the offices of the Vatican Observatory Research Group at the University of Arizona's Steward Observatory while in Tucson next month.

As the executive in charge of the day-to-day running of Vatican City, Cardinal Lajolo reports about the Vatican Observatory directly to His Holiness Pope Benedict XVI. Vatican astronomers have announced his visit, which will occur Feb. 26 through Feb. 28.

The Roman Catholic Church under Pope Benedict XVI has also stated on numerous occasions in the last few years that it is ok for catholics to believe in aliens - a subject once shunned by the Vatican and previous Popes.

Heads Up - Heaven's Junk is Falling! (Updates!)

ISiS Sends Her Debris Our Way...

This post was originally going to be about the Calgary / NORAD space debris incident but I discovered an interesting coincidence in the Timeline.


November 26, 2008 the Russian Space Cargo craft the M-01M "The Progress" was launched from Baikonur, Khazakstan aboard a Soyuz rocket and docked with ISS just 4 days later on November 30,2008.

"The Progress" was also used on December 17, 2008 to make trial adjustments to the ISS's orbit.

Some fragments came down in the south Pacific Ocean off the coast of Africa at 11:19 am Moscow time on Febriary 9, 2009.

February 10, 2009 another Soyuz carriying the "Progress M-66M" was launched from Baikonur, Khazakstan. Docking with the ISS was scheduled for 10:19 a.m. on February 13.

February 11, 2009 it was reported that two satellites, one from Iridium Satellites LLC (Iridium 33) and the other the Cosmos 2251 Russian owned communication satellite, had collided in low Earth orbit resulting in a massive debris field. more at Heavens-above.com

February 12, 2009, at 9:20 p.m Flight 3407 departed Newark Liberty Int'l Airport bound for Buffalo Niagara Int'l Airport.
At approxiamately 10:11pm Flight 3407 suddenly and catastrophically rolled violently and crashed into a house at 6050 Long Street, Clarence Center, NY, 14032, killing all 44 passengers, 4 crew and 1 on the ground.

Beverly Eckert a 9/11 widow heading up a truth and intelligence reform movement, "Voices of September 11th", was killed in the Flight 3407 crash. Beverly Eckert had met with President Obama at the Whitehouse about a week prior to her death.

February 13, 2009 the city of Calgary, Alberta, Canada at 51° 2′ 42″ N, 114° 3′ 26″ W was notified by NORAD that space debris was heading towards the city and they'd have about 16 minutes before impact. Another call notified them that the target for impact of the debris was going to be 110 km east in the city of Vulcan, Alberta at 50°24′24″N 113°15′18″W. The Debris skipped off the atmosphere and eventually ended up in the ocean off the coast of Africa.

The University of Calgary is home to Dr Alan Hildebrand who is the lead scientist on Canada's NEOssat Project for tracking space debris, asteroids, and other satellites. The NEOSSAT project is funded by Defence Research Development Canada(DRDC) and the Canadian Space Agency(CSA).

February 15, 2009 the FAA received numerous reports of flaming debris falling from the Sky in the State of Texas.


The Wild Theory:

Icing seems to be a good "cover story" for the downing of Flight 3407 with a potential backup story as space debris.

What is the insurance claim on a crashed airliner worth?

The Bombardier Dash 8 Q400 airplane of flight 3407 was designed for flights into the cold northern sub-arctic regions of Canada. The plane was designed to handle icing and inclement weather.

If you're interested in numbers, there are some odd number twinnings to look into that occur in the story of Flight 3407.

(UPDATE)

Check out Christopher Knowles over at The Secret Sun covering some "strange coincidences" in space news!

Chris tells us (about the Iridium Satellite Collision):

33, 22, 51 (3x17). Fascinating numbers there. If you want to get really crazy
with the numbers, the timecode is 16:56 UTC. 1+6=7 and 5+6=11. 7x11=77, which is
Iridium's atomic number.
Could someone be trying to tell us something? (btw, 7 divded by 11 is
.0636363636363).

Flight 3407

3+4 = 7
0+7 = 7

The same 77 reappears in the Flight 3407 crash.

Iridium and Rhodium are said to be pineal activating ingredients in the Philosopher's Stone of the Alchemists.

Bombardier Q400 planes have had few prior problems

Three made-in-Toronto Dash 8 Q-400 planes, owned by airline SAS, were involved in crash landings in Scandinavia in a span of 45 days in the fall of 2007 due to problems with landing gear.

SAS later pulled its 27-strong fleet of Q400s out of service at a cost of hundreds of millions of Swedish crowns.

SAS said in March of last year it had agreed with Bombardier and landing gear maker Goodrich Corp on compensation for the problems. The details were confidential, but SAS had said it would receive total compensation of "slightly more than 1 billion Swedish crowns" ($120 million) in cash payment and credits for future aircraft orders.

You'll note the name Goodrich Corp. appearing in the above snippet.


On a side note, in occult math a 2 appearing next to a 7 (as in 27 for example) can be taken to also convey "77".


A map of the crash of Flight 3407 in Clarence Center, NY at 6050 Long Street shows us that next street over from the impact is Goodrich Rd. The cross street is Maple Street - The Maple leaf is the symbol widely recognized for Canada. Bombardier is a Canadian company.

Canada Geese Fingered In Flight 1549 Crash

(CBS) A flock of Canada Geese was responsible for the bird strike that knocked out both engines of US Airways Flight 1549, causing the Airbus and its 155 passengers and crew to plunge into the icy Hudson River last month, the National Transportation Safety Board says.
