Hello and Good Morning all.... With the amount of space trash that is returning
to earth,
it very well could be a piece of 2024 aluminum. Or a missing bolt from the
International
space station. Put it in a box, give it a label and sell it on eBay! Ha!
Have a great day! And you folks in Az running the desert, remember water,
water, water!
Don't make people come look for you....
Dennis
