The suggestion I saw was that it fell from a wing, not from a toilet. If these large blocks formed on wings they would affect the aerodynamics wouldn't they? The physics involved in a massive block forming in a clear sky through natural causes is so mind-boggling as to be virtually inconceivable. Probably ice meteor incidence is correlated with aircraft traffic. A normal tiny meteor can act as a nucleus for ice to form. Meteors are heated by the heat from the air they compress in front of them. Some of their surface melts off, but once they get into the denser atmosphere they can be going rather slow take quite a while to land and get cooled by the cold air. There is nothing suspicious about water vapour in clear sky weather. Ever noticed dew in clear weather? As the air cools in the evening it becomes able to hold less water vapour. A supersaturated condition forms and water is deposited on the nearest object available. Quite a lot of dew can be formed in a few minuters when the dew point is reached. Same thing with water being heated to 100 degrees Celsius in a smooth vessel. Then if something rough is put in the steam is allowed to form and it may boil over. Where are the data about upper atmosphere temperature and global warming? |
