Colorado Lightshow - Rocket Reentry

According to NORAD, this is a Russian SL-4 rocket body that re-entered the atmosphere over Colorado and Wyoming. This rocket body is "space junk" from an earlier launch of a French Satellite on December 27, 2006.

Amazingly, the reentry occurred nearly 60 miles up and 300 miles to the West over the Four Corners area!

I imagine this is in slow-mo? Looks neat.

Actually, this was broadcast and taped in real time. It appears slo-mo because the even was happening so far up in the atmosphere.

I remeber seeing one of thoughs in California. So pretty it lit up the sky good....

I saw it at 5:53 am on the morning it occured. It turns out that it was an old russian rocket launched into orbit in order to deploy a satalite. It was being determined by the USAF when it would land and where, but was never released to the public.

Its just debris from a rocket or satellite. Simple. ...no need for the blown gasket, Charlie...

Tards will always believe these things are of alien origin. Ugh...

I was lucky enough to be a witness to this event. A spectacular light show, I was struck by the beauty and brilliance as it slowly moved across the early morning sky. It was something I will never forget..

By no means a meteor or rocket. The round shaped lights are flashing. Mass arrival in my opinion.

The gentleman who made the video was quite excited at the scene.

Just something I read today.... WOW
