I get a weekly newsletter from Prophesy Newswatch which is powered by InJesus through http://www.hebrew4christians.com ( free way to learn hebrew, I am a bit rusty) I figured that those who don't know should at least see this, please follow the link if you want but I will post all the info here from the direct source!The following is from the article:Meteor crash leaves 66ft crater - and hundreds feeling sickBy DAVID DERBYSHIRE - More by this author » Last updated at 22:18pm on 19th September 2007Comments Comments (2)It has all the hallmarks of a 1950s B-movie - a remote location, mysterious lights in the sky, a crater that appeared from nowhere, and a disease that spread like the plague through locals.But this is no science fiction film. Officials in Peru yesterday revealed that 200 people had fallen sick after an object from space crashed into the south of the country over the weekend.The incident has echoes of The Andromeda Strain - the Michael Crichton thriller in which a crashed satellite brings an extra-terrestrial plague to the Earth.While no scientists are seriously suggesting that aliens are to blame, the incident has left many baffled.On Saturday morning locals saw a fireball plummeting from the sky and heard it smash into the desolate Andean plain close to Carancas, near the Bolivian border.Believing a plane had crashed, they raced to the site to discover a crater around 66ft wide and 16ft deep.Soon after, many began to complain of headaches, vomiting and sore throats. Farm animals were also affected - left staggering, gasping and with eyes watering.By Tuesday, 200 people were ill, said Jorge Lopez, the director of the local health department, who blamed a meteorite. "This is caused by the gas they have inhaled after the crash," he said.The mystery deepened when local news reports said two "calcium life-forms" were found in the crater.One excited radio reporter said: "They think they've found spacemen."The bodies turned out to be the remains of dead animals buried before the object hit."We are all very worried," said villager Jorge Ballestas. "People wonder if it is safe to drink the water, or eat the food."An engineer from the Peruvian Nuclear Energy Institute said no radiation had been detected.Scientists from San Andres University in La Paz said analysis of sand samples from the crater showed it could be a meteorite which was blasted to dust by the impact.However, other meteor experts are unconvinced. Dr Caroline Smith of the Natural History Museum in London, said: "It's the third incident like this in Peru in the last few years - and none have turned out to be meteorites."It's far more likely to have a been caused by the explosion of gases that build up naturally under the ground."In that part of Peru, you might get a build up of methane or hydrogen sulphide, both of which have an eggy smell and which could cause health problems."She suspects the light in the sky seen around the time of the crash was unrelated and was probably caused by a fireball - a large meteor that produces a spectacular display as it burns up in the sky.Each year, up to 60,000 tons of debris from space hits the Earth. Scientists know of 34,000 meteorites that have landed.Most are harmless, although occasionally large rocks can be devastating.In 1908, a large meteorite exploded in the atmosphere above Siberia. The explosion was as powerful as 1,000 atomic bombs and felled 80million trees.Pictures are attached!I thought that you all should know this if you don't have access to the news or if the news hasn't publicised it. It's just God saying look, I am coming soon, be on your guard! :D
I've always wondered about Wormwood, will it be meteor, or some kind of nuclear weapon? This article you found sure makes a literal shooting star seem plausible. Interesting article!
Weird thing is is that if this had been back on Tuesday, I had saw a falling star around 7 pm....but it was yesterday, something that gets me is that people are sudden ( scientists and govt officials mainly) cry out that its aliens, spacemen and oh, it didn't come from the sky all you saw was this that and the other, to keep things under wraps, but be wise and alert all!
