Hello all
today is the birthday of the Siena fall, 16 June 1794,
one of the 2 important and historical italian falls -
after Albareto - where for first Ambrogio Soldani have
put the question if the this rocks come from the space
- sorry for Chladni but the first idea is come from
Soldani 8 years

Be carefull here. The dusttrails and/or persistent trains left by meteorites
will start to twist after formation due to high altitude winds, often
creating a cork-screw pattern in the dust-trail or persistent train. I've
seen it happen many times with persistent trains of fireballs. It sometimes

Some corkscrewing effects might also be caused by an aerodynamic
vortex in the wake of the meteorite (rather than by spinning or tumbling).

Trust me, if you weighed 1.5 tons and where traveling at hundreds of

Hi All,
Here is a link to a pic I took of the launch of the Mars Odyssey spacecraft.
The Delta II rocket pretty much went straight as an arrow, but after a
minute or so, the smoke trail made loops from a ground perspective.

If one imagines any number of objects that go air borne at flight speed;
either motorbikes, NASCARS, fighter jets, skydivers...the potential for
a deviation from a straight path of flight is the norm rather than the
exception. In baseball, we have a number of pitches that generate

Actually, for skydivers - if you relax and have proper arch, you can be at

Steven,
Not that I doubt you or anything like that, but do you have any proof? Any
flow lines, lipping on the backside, or any other evidence of oriented
flight? ;-)

Dear David,
Congratulations on your new 'fall'! I imagine how happy you must be right

Hello People,
Just a thought here, but in my younger days I was pretty handy with a
slingshot and my usual ammunition was mainly rocks. The rounder they were
the straighter they flew. Usually they would slice left,right ,up or down
