Maybe bc the object rentering would always be perpendicular to the earth’s surface since it’s a globe and the object is moving fast enough that the rotation of the earth would be negligible?
It would come in at some sort of angle, but an East to West orbit is much more expensive to put up there than a West to East. The think that throws it all off is that it's a time lapse, if the object was falling that fast and picked up in more than one frame, it means those drifting clouds are breaking the speed of sound, not likely.
Not brilliant at science but I think the tungsten "utility pole" would break up a bit, but the force generated by the mass and the speed of the rod is what destroys the intended target for a kinetic weapon. The force is what destroys a city, not the tungsten telephone pole.
I'll bite. What do you think it is?
Rod of God
Why completely verticle? What if it came in on an angle?
Because rods of God fall the most direct line to earth

A VOLCANO
My guess is a bomb of some sort.
Hubs says the risen land around the volcano is the size of Hokkaido. Can a bomb do that? Just wondering.
It's 100% fake
