S.F. man's astounding photo / Mysterious purple streak is shown hitting Columbia 7 minutes before it disintegrated
by Elonka at 11:10 am EST, Feb 6, 2003

Although there are several possible benign explanations for the image -- such as a barely perceptable jiggle of the camera as it took the time exposure -- NASA's zeal to examine the photo demonstrates the lengths at which the agency is going to tap the resources of ordinary Americans in solving the puzzle.

Has anyone seen a link to the actual picture?? I'm very curious to take a look at it, myself. Nothing's on the other news wires yet (I searched on "Shuttle San Francisco Streak" at Google (smirk)), so it's not released to the public yet, but if anyone does see it show up on a webpage somewhere, please Meme it!

I would like to take a look at it as well, but according to this article, the guy isn't going to release it to the public until NASA reviews it. I will keep my eye out for it though:)

I personally think it's just a camera problem.

Must have been a Klingon Bird-of-Prey that was cloaked that fired on it! ;)
