[meteorite-list] Meteorite, satellite or...? 9/1/11, around 9.30 pm, Mykolaiv district, Odessa - Ukraine

[karmaka]

Hi Jay

thank you for the information.

You are right, of course.

I'm quite sure that this photo was just chosen for illustration purposes.
I never actually thought that this was an authentic photo taken on September 1 in the Ukraine.
I suppose they haven't got any photos or videos yet. Thus the media did what they always do:
they use images and videos wherever they can find them on the web, even fake ones.

Consider this for example: in this second television video about this Ukraine 'event' on this website

http://www.pn.mk.ua/news/45222.html  (after 2.04 minutes running time)

you see the fake 'Lake Chickomokomoko' - 'After Effects' meteorite which can also be found here

Let's see how this Ukraine story continues.

It might even have been a part of a satellite.
(Watch out for the defunct six-ton satellite UARS to come down in three or four weeks.)

Best wishes

Martin
