ISS003-E-5387 — Visible from space, a smoke plume rises from the Manhattan area after two planes crashed into the towers of the World Trade Center. This photo was taken of metropolitan New York City (and other parts of New York as well as New Jersey) the morning of September 11, 2001. “Our prayers and thoughts go out to all the people there, and everywhere else,” said Station Commander Frank Culbertson of Expedition 3, after the terrorists’ attacks.

I have never seen this satellite image of the 9/11 attacks. It is a haunting image. God bless all the lives that were lost and the many other people who were affected.
There are some very disturbing issues around the events that occurred on 9/11 that rally just do not add up. I am no conspiracy theorist, but I do have a keen analytical mind, and my bulshittometer is highly tuned. How the blaze could the third building WTC 7, just go down the way it did, without anything actually hitting it?
The perpetrators will be unmasked one day, and bought to justice. God rest the souls of the people murdered on that fateful day.
When 9-11 happened I lived about 15 minutes from the Twin Towers, so from my town we could see the smoke from certain locations. It was a sad day for sure, Let’s never forget that day.

This was the most tragic event of that year. It had taken away a toll of life in one go. I have seen the news at that time, the whole world got still as they are hit by the 9/11 attack.
I had never seen this image before. I will never forget that tragic day, it changed my life greatly.
I visited Ground Zero in 2007 and although it was a long time after the event, it was still an emotional experience.
Was one of the most tragic events ever. I will never forget that day what I was doing etc… God bless those people that tragically lost there lives. That smoke is really apparent even up that high.
Wow it is crazy how much smoke you can see from so far away. It really reflects how devastating 9/11 really was. It touched the lives of a large percentage of this country. I believe we are now stronger because of it.
Well Said ATVs, I do believe we are stronger as a nation because of what happened. Hopefully we all never forget.
Till then,

For anyone who was alive in 2001 we will always remember where we were and what we were doing when we heard and saw the news. Haunting images. Peace to all.
I know i didn’t enjoy the post, definitely the words are not fitting here. I still remember the horrifying day and evil side of human. That is an unforgettable moment of this life.
WOW!! I have never seen this one before either. It just brings back so many memories for me.
