On Thursday evening, November 20th, I flew into Lloydminster. The flight was to land at about 6:00pm. Just as we approached the runway, a brilliant reddish light appeared on the right of the plane and seem to fall apart, much like fireworks. On the plane, we all thought that someone had shot a huge flare skyward. As this was my first trip to Lloyd, I wondered if the airport routinely fired flares to help light up the runway.
What we all discovered the next day is that as passengers on the airplane, we witnessed an incredible event! We saw a meteorite enter the Earth's atmosphere, and burn up as it fell to the ground. For me, this was an incredible symbol that the work that I was doing was going to "light up" the lives of the people that I would be working with. The Ancestors could not have given me a more positive sign!
To see more on the Meteorite, read the excerpt piece below. The link leads to the entire story.
May you have many "flashes of light" in your life!
Planetary scientist Alan Hildebrand from the University of Calgary plans to spend the weekend in the Manitou Lake area near the town of Macklin, Sask., about 100 kilometres south of Lloydminster, near the Alberta boundary.
As co-ordinator of the Canadian Fireball Reporting Centre with the Canadian Space Agency, Mr. Hildebrand was busy Friday talking with some of the witnesses who sent him 300 e-mail reports about the fireball they saw light up the night sky Thursday.
