Hi All, I thought I'd take a hack at identifying prime landmarks (cities, lakes, etc.) that I would expect to be near the centerline of Columbia's reentry track, with some adjustment (read "guess") for prevailing winds. I'll start with New Mexico and work backwards: New Mexico ---------- Clovis Sumner Lake Santa Rosa Albuquerque Gallup Arizona ------- Hopi Indian Reservation Shonto Cedar Ridge Page Lake Powell Utah ---- Big Water Kanab Mount Carmel Jct. Zion National Park St. George Nevada ------ Caliente Hiko Goldfield Tonopah Coaldale Basalt California ---------- Mono Lake Bridgeport Yosemite National Park Sacramento Davis Woodland Vacaville Oakville Santa Rosa "Connect the dots" using these cities and you'll have a fair idea of the most probable corridor for Columbia debris west of Texas.
