The meteorite that fell yesterday morning on Chelyabinsk (Russia) has nothing to do with a celestial body and, most likely, could become an unsuccessful attempt to launch a military rocket from the nearby Elanskiy test site.
This assumption was expressed by the famous Russian writer and journalist Yulia Latynina.
“I'm not a rocket scientist, I'm a philologist. And as a journalist, I had several questions. The first question is: why did the meteorite fly in the direction from the Elan test site to the Chebarkul test site?
Why did he fly, if not parallel to the ground, then along a trajectory that is more like the trajectory of a rocket? The third question is: why does the meteorite have a “tail” similar to the “tail” of rocket fuel?
Question four: why was the meteorite explosion similar to the self-destruction of a rocket during an emergency situation? The fifth question: why is such a huge number of servicemen (military) involved in the search for the meteorite? , Wrote Yu. Latynina on the same day in Novaya Gazeta.
The author of the material also recalled that exercises have been going on at the Elan training ground all week, they even got into the news because of an emergency: a shell from a tank hit the soldier.
“In the news, there were reports that the meteorite trail was photographed by the European satellite Meteosat using the SEVIRI instrument. Alas, the picture clearly shows that the satellite has photographed a meteorite plume in the atmosphere. For some reason he did not photograph it in space,”she added.

The author of the article also suggested that someone "from above" is very afraid that a tail number will be found on the wreckage of the "meteorite", and then Russia will be accused of the eternal mess.
And just a few hours later, the author's column about the Chelyabinsk meteorite was removed, allegedly "at the request of the author himself."
Official sources of the Russian Federation continue to claim that everything that happened in Chelebinsk is the result of the fall of a celestial body. Let us remind you that a meteor shower was recorded on Friday morning in five regions of Russia - Tyumen, Sverdlovsk, Chelyabinsk, Kurgan regions and Bashkiria. Places of falling meteorite fragments were found in three districts of the Chelyabinsk region - two in Chebarkulsky and one in Zlatoustovsky.

Meanwhile, divers did not find the Chelyabinsk meteorite in the lake
In Lake Chebarkul in the Chelyabinsk region, no fragments of a meteorite were found. The bottom survey was carried out by a group of six divers, Interfax reports.
“The survey has been completed, no debris has been found,” said a spokesman for the regional EMERCOM Directorate.
The survey took about four hours. The fact that the meteorite that flew over the Chelyabinsk region the day before could fall into Chebarkul was previously announced by the head of the Ministry of Emergency Situations Vladimir Puchkov. Rescuers working with witnesses to the fall have three more options for the meteorite impact site. So far, no fragments of a celestial body have been found in any of them.
On Friday, the regional Interior Ministry said that small fragments of a solid, similar to rock, were found on Lake Chebarkul.
The meteorite, code-named "Chelyabinsk bolide", flew over the region and several other regions of Russia, as well as over the north of Kazakhstan, on Friday morning. A meteorite exploded over Chelyabinsk, causing window panes to fall out in many houses in the city. Currently, builders have restored glazing in about 30% of damaged buildings.
"As of 11:30 Moscow time, the glazing of 1,065 residential buildings out of 3,724, as well as 62 educational institutions and 34 healthcare facilities, has been restored," the Emergencies Ministry said.
In total, 320 construction teams are involved in the reconstruction of buildings after the shock wave attack. According to ITAR-TASS, there are more than 24 thousand people.
“We are pulling up forces not only from the territory of the Urals, but also from other regions of the country. According to the preliminary assessment of this situation, more than 3.7 thousand apartment buildings were damaged. Medical assistance was provided to about 1.2 thousand people,”said the Minister of Emergencies.
One of the victims of the meteorite fall will need the help of Moscow doctors - with fractures of the vertebrae, a woman on a special board of the Ministry of Emergency Situations will be taken to the capital. 50 victims remain in hospitals.
