To clarify the things you are ignoring:
1. Multiple well known and respected experts like Dr.Marco Langbroek and Jonathan McDowell tracked the rocket heading at a low angle over the Atlantic towards Cote d'Ivoire
2. Multiple governments including the US released statements saying they believe it went down there
3. An infrasound station on the ground there picked up the debris traveling overhead[1].
What more do you really need? It seems clear it must have hit land.

- MichaelZuo 4y agoOkay this seems somewhat more substantive though still a tangent of my original point that The Verge linked to a clearly untrustworthy source, which impacts their credibility.
- ch4s3 4y agoIt’s just some shitty local news outlet… I wouldn’t except most real papers to have a reporter who just knows a guy in that random little village. If you speak French there are some other sources from larger regional papers, but I didn’t dig in too much, and my vocabulary doesn’t cover rocket words.
- xtian 4y agoYou have accused myself and MichaelZuo of "taking the word of the Chinese government" and "carrying water for the CCP" respectively (based on nothing), and yet you continue to hold up the word of the US government and military as reliable and authoritative regarding their primary geopolitical rival.
