Peru : Meteorite, Or A Crashed US Spy
Satellite?
YOUR
NEW REALITY
Thursday September 20, 2007
The aftermath of the
meteorite strike in Peru just keeps getting weirder.
Reports from Peru now claim that more than 600 people have fallen
ill after coming into contact with the "glowing rock" or having
inhaled 'toxic gases' after visiting the massive 30 metre wide
crater.
The number of people reporting feeling sick, or showing signs
of radiation poisoning is rising fast.
The Peruvian Regional Health Directorate has been forced to set
up medical tents near a health centre in Carancas to deal with
the casualties, which most reports now claim are well above 600
people.
More than 150 people have shown up with dermal injuries, which
include heat burns. Most of the other casualties have reported
feeling nauseous, suffering from respiratory problems, dizziness
and had
been vomiting :
According to Peru's La Republica newspaper, due to the high
number of illnesses, district authorities are considering placing
the town of Carancas, Puno, Peru in a state of emergency.
According to the townspeople, the illnesses began after the
meteorite crashed and they began to touch the glowing rock believing
it had some type of monetary value.
Scientists dispatched to the site by the Peruvian government
claim to have examined the meteorite and are now stating it is
a "chondrite" meteorite. But the same scientists, according
to the Peruvian government's official news service, are claiming
that chondrite meteorites are not radioactive, nor do they release
substances or gases which might cause people to feel sick.

Police and locals who visited the crater soon after the crash
claimed a "foul odour" was coming from the crater.
The government is putting the story out that the meteorite itself
is not to blame for hundreds of people falling ill. But at the
same time a declaration of an official state of emergency is being
considered. While a health centre in the closest town to the Puno
crash site has had to establish an auxiliary 'tent hospital' to
cope with all the sick people flooding ill.
Sounds like a cover-up is now in progress.
One
of the more intriguing theories gathering momentum
on the net is that the meteorite might actually be a crashed US
spy satellite. The KH-13
'brand' of thermal
imaging reconnaissance satellites, purportedly weighing some
20 tons, is being discussed on some satellite watcher chat boards
as the most likely candidate.
The United States has dozens of spy satellites in orbit that are
not listed on any official registers of what's actually up there.
The KH-11 and KH-12 satellite programs, launched soon after the
9/11 attacks, to detect objects as small as 10cm in diameter,
and to 'see' into tunnels beneath the earth, were used in the
Afghanistan and Iraq wars. Both programs are supposedly top secret.
KH-13 might not even exist. Well, officially, anyway. It's not
unheard of for the US military to run space-based surveillance
and weapons programs that are beyond the knowledge spectrum of
even the president.
A crashed, ripped apart spy satellite
powered by Pu238 (plutonium) fuel cells would also explain
the bizarre accounts of Peruvians who visited the crater suffering
from radiation sickness, reports that the 'meteorite' was seen
glowing soon after it hit the ground, and the even stranger claims
that
boiling water was seen bubbling in the crater' :
A small heap of
Pu238-O2 is warm to the touch and in more abundant quantities
can boil water. In some
configurations, the surface temperature of a Pu-238 fuel element
can reach 1050 degrees C.
The possibility that locals are being exposed to radiation from
Pu238 fuel cells used in satellites would also explain the concern
expressed by local doctors near the crash site that the dust thrown
up by the impact might be making the crater visitors ill.
Again, a crashed spy satellite is only a theory for now, and even
if it's true, you're probably never going to hear a confirmation
of it on the evening news.
Unless, of course, the US wants to blame Iran, or China, for shooting
down one of its spy satellites, then you'll hear all about it.
It will be fascinating to see how this story unfolds, particularly
how it is reported in the mainstream media.
If it was indeed a spy satellite, particularly one carrying an
extremely radioactive nuclear fuel like Pu238, you can expect
a flurry of rumours to begin any day now that what tore into the
ground in Peru just might have been a crashed alien spacecraft.
Anything to distract from the truth.
And there's nothing like a good UFO story to cover up a military
secret.
UPDATE
: BBC News, helped by a prominent link on the Drudge Report,
is trying to muddy the reality of this event even further
by publishing a
Q & A suggesting the 600 plus sick Peruvians could be
suffering from mass hysteria :
Symptoms
could well be caused in part by what is known as a Mass Sociogenic
Illness (MSI).
There
are countless examples of this through history and up to the
present day.
The BBC then goes on to question whether or not the
meteorite even exists :
there is some debate as to whether
this is a meteorite - or indeed an object from space - in the
first place.
Some
scientists are suggesting that people may have witnessed a fireball,
set off to investigate, and found a lake of sedimentary deposit
that was already there.
What
absolute twaddle. If there is "some debate" it must be within
the BBC Science Department, because there's no sign of it online
that we can find.
As detailed above, Peruvian scientists have already begun investigations
and reached a preliminary conclusion that the meteorite is real.
Expect more layers of rubbish like this BBC
Q & A to pile up over the truth in the coming days.
