It is interesting that Avi Loeb has done calculations showing the meteorite was apparently made of some material stronger than iron or rock. Implying that it could be alien tech….. He has gotten a recovery ship planned with a big magnet to go down the 1 mile in the Pacific Ocean to get the particles of the object. How he figured the meteorite fragments are magnetic after saying it was stronger than iron he does not explain. Oh yes, he only needs $500K to do this little operation.

Tagliaferi used DSP data to study airbursts until the spooks cut him off-only recently opening things up again. In 1993, there were two linear earthquakes once thought to be caused by strange quark matter passing through at 200 km/sec! SMU did the research-but I hear there is no longer any studies of such events! More declassification is likely needed.

Finding order in chaos exists only in politics.

Seeing order in chaos is a lesser threshold.

In reply to Blair Ivey.

Blair Ivey: You hit the nail on the head. That is exactly what this writer is doing. If you miss the word “known” you might think this object is more of a big deal than it is.

What this discovery really signals is the increased ability of astronomers to find such things, using the telescopes now available with digital technology.

“. . . and, retroactively, the first known interstellar object of any kind to reach our solar system.”

Hyperbolic comets, perhaps?

Probably just me, but the sentence construction feels *wrong*; like the writer is trying to dramatize something that has been gong on since time began.
