<P>Clyde Lewis seems to agree with you Woody...<P><A HREF="http://www.clydelewis.com/invest/warning/warning.html" TARGET="_blank">http://www.clydelewis.com/invest/warning/warning.html</A><P>WARNING FROM ANDROMEDA<BR>A report compiled by Clyde Lewis and Maxx Damage<P>IS OUR PROOF OF ALIEN LIFE FORMS THE VERY THING THAT COULD DESTROY ALL LIFE ON THE PLANET? THE SPECULATION IS TERRIFYING!<P>GROUND ZERO EXCLUSIVE INVESTIGATION: "WARNING FROM ANDROMEDA":<P>Ground Zero has been looking into the possibility that Biological diseases that are on the ready to be used as weapons may have had their beginnings in outer-space and that a biological threat exists form space. Mankind might be signing it's own death certificate if we allow deep space probes to crash into earth with samples of dust that may contain deadly alien microbes with strange diseases.<P>Project Stardust, the project that NASA says will collect space dust and send it hurtling towards earth in 2006 is well underway, and it seems that people who live in the state of Utah are excited to see the project come to fruition. Because ground zero for the landing is on the Utah Test and Training Range south of Interstate 80 and west of the Dugway Proving Grounds.<P>Stardust is a comet sample return mission having the distinction of being the first sample return mission from beyond the Earth-Moon system. Stardust will collect interstellar dust, then encounter Comet P/Wild 2 in 2004 collecting comet dust and possibly imaging the nucleus at resolutions 10 times better than Giotto did at Halley, and return to Earth in 2006 to drop off the sample return capsule.<P>NOT ALL SCIENTISTS ARE REJOICING:<P>Stardust's 94-pound sample-return capsule is supposed to enter Earth's atmosphere in the year 2006 at 28,800 mph, slow to 1,337 mph while protected by a heat shield, then deploy a drogue parachute and a main parachute before landing.<P>Not all Scientists are happy with this. Some scientists are worried that an Andromeda Strain scenario could play out upon the probe's arrival and unleash a potentially deadly extra terrestrial Virus on this planet.<P>Realizing NASA's track record with Mars landings there might be reason for worry. There is a possibility that Stardust could pick up on its way an Extra terrestrial disease and kill off the population of earth if it is not contained. That is why Ground Zero has jokingly dubbed the Stardust mission "Project Andromeda Strain."<P>The Andromeda Strain is a Book by Michael Crichton that outlines this very plausible outcome.<P>Many worry that our first contact with ET will be an extra terrestrial disease. That is if we haven't known all along about the effectiveness of Extra terrestrial diseases.<P>

<P>Hello all,<BR>I really hope they do not bring it back to JPL-I live too close for comfort. Who knows what that little stardust collector holds within it's belly.<P>I have had a bad feeling ever since they announced their plans in the baginning. Now on CNN online the main picture is of JPL scientists cheering and waving their arms. In fact they should be totally concerned about that pixie dust they have brought back here to earth. Never trusted scientists-the are too narrow minded, self serving and wear blinders like racehorses trying to be the first no matter what happens.<P>...Woody<BR>

On Sunday morning, after a seven-year journey, its Stardust spacecraft dropped a capsule containing comet dust into the Earth's atmosphere and it landed gently in the Utah desert in the US.<P>The textbook landing was greeted by whoops of delight from mission controllers at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) in Pasadena, California. "It's one of those moments in life which is almost so fantastic you can't describe it," said Ken Atkins, former project manager for Stardust at JPL.<P>The Stardust spacecraft was launched in February 1999, and reached a comet called Wild 2 in January 2004. Comet Wild 2 orbits the Sun between Mars and Jupiter.<P>The spacecraft flew within 236 kilometres of the comet and extended a tennis-racket-shaped collector to trap dust particles in Aerogel, a transparent solid so light that it almost floats in air. Scientists think it captured more than 2000 particles wider than 15 micrometres.<P>
