Have you heard about that satellite that lost electricity and is going to hit earth in late Feb. or early March? It is top secret because it is a government thing so they won't release any info. of where they think it might hit.

When I was a kid I used to go down to the beach late at night and lie on my back in the sand and look at the stars. If there was no moon out it really was amazing what you could see.
A couple of years ago I met some old friends and we headed down to the beach to do the same thing. We were amazed at the number of satellites going every which way. ... I would imagine NASA has an idea where it might come down. ... Hopefully not where people could be hurt! :pray:

:pray: I will also pray on that! I hope it lands in the sea. I am sure when it does come here it will be in many flaming pieces. Yes God does create the most beautiful breath taking things :D . It is nice to sit in silence and just enjoy His creations.

The site I linked you to is a satellite the size of a school bus with a very powerful telescope, (Hubble) that gives us a better view of galaxies etc. because it is outside .. above the earth's atmosphere. It has taken some amazing photos.
The satellite that has lost power is smaller, ... probably a spy satellite. It will probably break up and hopefully fall into the sea if it doesn't all burn up.
:peep:
You are right about sometimes just to sit in silence and enjoy His creations. :):

I received this link from an old friend and after viewing it, I thought of this verse.
Matthew 23: (http://www.blueletterbible.org/cgi-bin/tools/printer-friendly.pl?book=Mat&chapter=23&translation=nivp&x=7&y=10#)37 (http://www.blueletterbible.org/cgi-bin/tools/printer-friendly.pl?book=Mat&chapter=23&translation=nivp&x=7&y=10#) ... how often I have longed to gather your children together, as a hen gathers her chicks under her wings, but you were not willing.
