When A Leaf Turns

Apparently Obama loyalists flexed their military muscles and shot a nuclear missile at the Denver International Airport!

Either that or it was a meteor. But what are the chances of that? It’s much more likely to be a vast government conspiracy to hide nuclear attacks right in the middle of the U.S. MUCH more likely! MUCH MORE LIKELY!!!!</crazy>

Okay, now that that’s out of my system, this video really is very cool. Dr. Plait over at Bad Astronomy points out that these kinds of meteors probably happen multiple times a year. The difference now is the ubiquity of recording devices which are able to actually record such events.

You know, there may be a lot of drawbacks to the idea of pervasive surveillance, but this is definitely one of the benefits.
