What Aren't They Telling Us?
The report contains this sentence. "The satellite, which no longer can be controlled, could contain hazardous materials..." Ok, either it does or it does not, and NASA knows. They knew what the satellite contained when it was put into orbit, so they know whether or not it contains hazardous materials. I am almost certain that it does, otherwise they would have made the definitive statement that it does not. My guess is that they are waiting to see where they think it might land before they decide whether or not they are going to make us aware of any "hazardous materials." If it lands in the ocean or a remote part of a continent (a high likelihood), they will not have to share with us any of that information because there is very little chance that anyone will get to the satellite wreckage before the government. However, if there is a strong possibility of the satellite coming down in a populated area, they will not be able to keep it quiet. There will be the possibility of harm to human beings from the crash itself and the spread of radiation and/or other materials. I think we have a right to know now. Our tax dollars helped put the thing into orbit, so let's have some "freedom of information" to know just what might be raining down upon us in a couple of weeks. I swear that this country becomes more like the former Soviet Union everyday. "We'll tell you what we want you to know."
