Cool. Would like to see that, but will doubtless forget. Unless I'm outside having a smoke at the time.

How long before the tin hat brigade get twitchy over this?

Also, could it not have been programmed to land on a certain part of Essex hehe two birds one stone and all that!

ill bet that our friendly travelling companions will know where its going to drop before it hits the ground, look out for 'tranny tippers forming an orderly line at a weighbridge with bits of aluminium saying NASA sticking out of the back!

"Do you reckon that NASA could get it to land on Dale Farm??"

Its worth a go, but its American so it would probably hit Emmerdale Farm by mistake.

It's cloudy here in the midlands. I assume it'll be gone now frown
