On Saturday, RT.com, the website of Russian 24 hour news channel, RT, said that one of the group of scientists that was following the experiment nearly 200 miles away from the explosion said they could see a flash of light even with dark glasses on.
This time it was six long hours before a second flash corrected the first with the news that it was engine trouble and not a midair explosion that had forced Lindbergh to make an emergency landing on treacherous terrain in the mountains of western Pennsylvania.
In a video of the No. 3 explosion, the blast appears much bigger than the No. 1 blast, featuring a bright flash followed by a towering column of smoke and concrete that then tumbles in chunks out of the sky.
