Luxor hot air balloon crash

[Jim Eshelman]

The deadliest balloon accident in the world occurred February 25, 2013, at 7:00 AM EET, in Luxor, Egypt, in which 19 of the 21 passengers died.

The crash occurred after a fire broke out in the balloon: As it was attempting to land, a mooring cable wrapped around a gas cylinder, somehow causing a gas leak that ignited. Two people leapt the several yards to the ground before the balloon reascended, making similar jumps by the other passengers unfeasible. About 1,000 feet up, a loud explosion occurred, causing the balloon to crash, killing everyone still aboard.

The charts below, for the most part, describe the event quite vividly and obviously. A curio (something I want to look at further) is that there is no shortage of Jupiter - in pretty much the same exact way that there was a Jupiter presence in the Lockhart balloon crash incident.
