Do we still not have an estimate for size on Elenin? I've been dying for some, there's a rough impact calculator and I've been trying to see what an impact of Elenin would actually DO.
A quick googling says "E-types are all small, with only three having diameters above 50 kilometres and no others above 25 kilometres"
50 km - ~30 miles
25 - ~15 miles
That sounds pretty big :O but lets hope it's a small one

Why would you be worried about elenin impact? It's not going to impact. Deep breath.

That is really cool! I'm going to have to ask my dad, he used to be an avid ham operator but I don't know if he still does it.
Hey, keep me posted on your friend and what he has to say about that

You're right.
But not so much that an amateur rig is going to pick it up.

We don't know the whole story so just keep an open mind. But I have already read in many articles that the Navy have another division which they call the US Navy Space Command.

lol, you're quite attentive huh. Pretty sure you've barely even skimmed the thread before jumping to that proclamation. How's the soul of your shoe taste?
Interesting read. I've always enjoyed hearing storied of the military secret space program. Dunno if any of it's legit, but, damn I sure as hell hope it is. Going to space is what I would do if I could choose to do anything in this lifetime, and if this were true, it increases that probability lol.

Well, how do they jump from shuttles, to something that can travel Mach-20? seems kind of like a HUGE ass jump if you ask me.

I don't think anyone ever jumped from a shuttle.

So what I take from this is that if this were indeed plausible to travel to Elenin within 20 minutes after exiting our orbit, we have some technology that would indeed prove John Leer right and that we do have the technology to leap. It would even become fathomable that jump rooms could exist and that Saturn is indeed a portal.
