Space junk fell in Ubon

Featured Replies

Wednesday some space junk landed in Tambon Na Pho Klang in Ubon Ratchathani’s Khong Chiam and surrounding areas. If anyone knows someone there, I'd like to buy some of the junk. Finders fee paid as well.

Thanks heaps!

I'll get back to you.......I'll be working on it after buying a sledge hammer and a metal dusbin or two tomorrow.

 

 

To ensure you only buy genuine space 'junk' make sure it has any one of these  letters 'E/N/T/E/R/P/R/I/S/E' clearly marked on the piece. Anything less, it's fake.   :smile:

Why anyone would want unknown foreign objects that may be radioactive and which have been exposed to "space" is  puzzling.

Andromeda Strain. Learn it. Live it.

Space junk so called is usually bits that have fallen off aircraft exceeding the speed of sound.

Space is not radioactive. Once a metal is separated from any possible radioactive power source, (old ones are not powered that way), anything would burn off on reentry.

Space Junk is satellites and parts that have entered into earths atmosphere, no longer able to stay up there working. When they enter the atmosphere, they come burning down to earth. Nothing to do with the speed.

Oh, so you KNOW that it's space junk and not part of an aircraft? When aircraft exceed the speed of sound they frequently lose bits. This is probably one of those bits. Everything to do with speed if it's from an aircraft, which it probably is. Got it now?
