The above was a headline posted on Wednesday, November 25, 2009 in the Washington Post Newspaper: Ships are on alert and maritime authorities are monitoring the movements of hundreds of menacing icebergs drifting towards New Zealand in the southern Pacific Ocean, officials said. The current floatilla of icebergs that split off Antartic ice shelves are slowly drifting in the direction of New Zealand. The nearest one, measuring about 330 to 660 feet (100 to 200 meters) long, was about 160 miles (260 kilometers) southeast of New Zealand's Stewart Island on Tuesday, Austrailan glaciologist Neal Young said.
My comments: Is it another coincidence that these ice shelves broke off just after The Space Shuttle Atlantis launch from Cape Kennedy on November 16th, Plus a Soyuz-U rocket Russian launch from Plesetsk on November 20th, An Atlas V 431 rocket launched from Cape Canaveral on November 23rd, and a Proton-M/Briz-M Enhanced rocket launched from Baikonur Site in Russia on November 24th. Four launches within eight (8) days. Four additional hole bored/burned through the ozone layer. Numerous solar flares and winds enter through these additional holes. Is it a wonder why these artic ice shelves are breaking off and drifting towards New Zealand? The oozone hole in the Antartic is now at 16.8 million square miles. When these ice shelves begin to melt and the sea levels start to rise, then maybe someone other than myself will start to fiqure out that the frequent launchings are the cause of the problem.
