It was only a few tens of metres (if that) across as well. Makes you think how much a big one would fuck things up.

EDIT: Seems it was actually less than 10m. Weighed about 10 tons and detonated with a force between 1-10 kilotons.

I wonder if most of those people thought it was a missile sent from the good ol US of A?

That's what my first thought would be if I saw something like that.  "Oh shit, I guess its WW3"

that's because you're a neurotic and paranoid american.

"those damn soviet reds! developing a new top-secret nuke that travels 25,000mph! i knew they were up to something!"

AND PROUD OF IT

Was there any report of a meteor shower to hit Russia prior to it happening? There are usually warnings about these things weeks in advance.

Also, today an object fell out of the sky and exploded above Cuba. Eye witnesses reported it being the size of a bus.

It seems very coincidental that at the time a meteor passes the earth both Russia AND Cuba (who have had ongoing tensions with the US in the past and continue to do so at some level) experience objects falling from the sky with little to no warning.

Now, I'm not saying outright it's a US weapons test like this Russian politician is, but the coincidence makes the mind boggle and question it at the very least.

maybe he is right and you're the crazy ones.

I believe Neil Armstrong walked on the moon.

But hey, maybe it's a nuts idea. Probably not as nuts as owning firearms to fight your own government in case of tyranny though.

So you want to debate whether or not the US decided to test their missiles by firing them into Russia and Cuba?

Im going to go with the insane theory and say that they didnt do that

What do you want to discuss? What are you raising for discussion
