It doesn't matter how many people believe some nonsense about the
Columbia, it's not true. Can you imagine how many hours or days in
advance the AF would have to have known a meteor was going to collide
with the Columbia!? Not possible. The Air Force has no "meteor
detections capability," secret or otherwise, because the AF is not in
the business of detecting meteors, even if it does so inadvertently
from time to time. The AF does not operate the U.S. space
reconnaissance program.
By that token, if a meteor destroys a whole city it won't be the fault
of the Air Force except in deranged minds. For each nutter who blamed
the Air Force for not detecting a meteor there would be two other
nutters who blamed the AF for not shooting down a UFO.
We mustn't let conspiracy theorists and other nut cases run our science.
