I guess it was about 30 minutes ago, I hear a double boom, actually felt the pressure wave. Ran out to the balcony, didn't see any smoke anywhere, thought maybe something blew up somewhere.
Now I get on line and I see the space shuttle was diverted to Edwards AFB. I figure the noises were sonice booms from the shuttle. I had no idea they would be that loud.
Anyone else hear it?
Funny thing is that I was watching a Discovery Channel DVD on the space program and was on a section about the Columbia re-entry burn up.
i usta live in palmdale in the mid to late 90's... there usta be sonic booms at least 5-6 times a week... since the population explosion out there they really cut back on those type of activities
