This is what this object is. The Laser Geodynamics Satellite I or LAGEOS I, a NASA spacecraft. There is a link for this story a couple of replies up. This and another satellite were sent into orbit last year to test Albert Einstein's General Theory of Relativity.
This is a 0.6 m dia. sphere and designed to last 50 years!
Well it ain't a golf ball. The dimples do not match up. If we knew what size it is maybe we could come up with something. It looks like some kind of plastic doo-dad with a "gold plated' finish. Like one of those orbs that poke`mon toys used to come in. HH! Chris
Sure wish I could dig a little deeper in my pockets so the Gov't could afford to conduct more experiments like that! Sorry, wrong place for political sarcasm. HH to all.
Just watch the little ball as it slowly turns and concentrate. You are feeling relaxed. Your eyelids are getting heavy. You are getting sleepy...sleepy...now get out your checkbooks and write a blank check payable to nedigger and mail to...
