Another site said it crashed at 45,000 mph. This one said 75,000. So which is it AND what method is being used to measure its speed, if it was unexpected?
Last night my husband and I were out looking at the stars. For a split second I looked down and at that same moment a comet flew by. My husband said wow did you see that? I missed it. It was that fast. So who is measuring to say that it hit at 45,000 or 75,000 mph?!?!?!?
Something to think about, especially if they did not have foreknowledge!!!!
45000mph is 7500kph
45000mph is 75000kmph
