Debris fill Orbit as US Satellite explodes.

By -


The US Navy confirmed an unexplainable satellite explosion filled Earth’s orbit with potentially dangerous debris.
The Defense Meteorological Satellite Program Flight 13 (DMSP-F13) experienced “a sudden temperature spike” on February 3, but only on February 26 the loss of the apparatus was officially confirmed.  The explosion has filled the planet’s orbit with 43 pieces of space debris posing potential danger for satellites with the intersecting trajectories.
The US navy claimed that the situation is under control and said they would raise a warning if a threat of a real collision was imminent. It will take millions of years for the debris to be pulled by planet’s gravity from its place over 22,000 miles(36000km) above the surface.
The exploded satellite was the oldest active US Navy weather satellite, launched in 1995. It was transitioned to a backup role in 2006, as currently there are 6 other DMSPs operating on the orbit. The impact of the loss of the DMSP-F13 is reported to be “minimal".
The space debris is extremely dangerous as its pieces traveling at 4 miles 
(7 km) per second  have immense destructive capabilities. For example, a one 
third of an inch (1 cm) piece at such speed packs the same punch as a Harley 
Davidson going 60mph(96kph). With every collision the cloud grows and 
becomes more dangerous.
Most satellites and the ISS are able to adjust their trajectories to avoid the space debris, but one mistake could have catastrophic consequences.

INDIA WON’T SUPPRESS TEWARI’S FREE ENERGY GENERATOR.

India considers its own free energy program a matter of national pride, and is very much willing to risk antagonizing Petrodollar countries with its support on Reactionless AC Synchronous Generator (RLG) invented by its own Paramahamsa Tewari, an electrical engineer and former Executive Director of Nuclear Power Corporation of India. Years ago, Tewari had also proven the theories inside Bruce de Palma’s homopolar engine which first exposed this writer to the world of free energy technologies. Obviously, a country cannot implement its own free energy program without considering all possible consequence including a military response from Petrodollar countries, e.g. Saudi Arabia, UK, US. That’s why India has been aligning its own military program with that of Russia which at present is standing up, together with the BRICS countries, against the Nazionist cabal that is imposing all sorts of sanctions to destroy the Russians. The BRICS alliance has in the past promised to rele

Google Earth discovers stone gates in Saudi Arabia: Precursor to more mysterious civilization?

Saudi Arabia is widely considered a barren desert in the ancient ages, but a new discovery hints that the country was home to various archeological sites in the past which are yet to be discovered. A study conducted with the help of Google Earth has discovered ancient giant stone gates in Saudi Arabia, supposedly the remnants of an ancient civilization. With the help of Google Earth imagery, scientists have discovered more than 400 stone gates which were not documented before in the country. David Kennedy, the researcher at the University of Western Australia said that these stone structures will not be visible at the ground level, but once we move up a few hundred feets, these stone gates stand out beautifully lined up. He added that the gates will be visible in satellite images too. "I refer to them as Gates because when you view them from above they look like a simple field gate lying flat, two upright posts on the sides, connected by one or more long bars," said

In a move that once again proves   its commitment to renewable energy , China has begun construction on its first large-scale commercial solar plant out in the sun-dreched expanse of the Gobi Desert. Called Delingha, the colossal facility will spread out across 25 km² (6,300 acres) of vacant land in the country's Qinghai province, and will feature six huge solar towers hooked up to an array of solar mirrors. When complete, the plant will have a capacity of 200 megawatts, which means it will be able to supply electricity to 1 million households in Qinghai year-round. "Its designed heat storage is 15 hours, thus, it can guarantee stable, continual power generation," Qinghai Solar-Thermal Power Group board chair, Wu Longyi,   told the press . The facility is the first solar plant to be run as a commercial entity, and   according to Svati Kirsten Narula at Quartz , it’s being jointly developed by BrightSource Energy, based in Oakland, California, and the Shanghai El
