Meteorite Crashes in Russia

Whoa, now their reporting up to 500 minor injuries and damages in 6 different cities ?!

6 cities ?!

Finally gotten some attention here in New Zealand by the looks of it, seems the news (not sure which channel, mums just told me, possibly Channel 1 could be TV3?) is gonna have a bit about it at 10:30 (20 minutes from now).

Hope they show the vid with the shock-wave sounds in it looking directly up under the trail... neat vid that one.

earthquake.usgs.gov...

I dont see it. I think everyone has to caaaaalm down mm kay?

I have been watching the live feed from ISS for a few hours now but had to go out for 30 mins there. When I put it back on, the picture from the camera was all,breaking up and stayed that way for a while then they put their 'test card' of the earth on when the stop transmission as they do a lot. Never seen the picture break up like that before. Have seen a lot of red and white streaks for hours on and off past few hours.....

I find it landing in a lake a little too convenient to begin with. Just me though...

With all that I can find to read about this incident,
there still a lot of conflicting reports as to what really took place.

I get there are injuries. I've heard about there being meteorite sightings shortly before outbreaks of the plague or what have you. Along with the fact scientists have found bacteria in meteorites before. Just sayin' its something to maybe keep an eye out for.

Don't mean to be a douche-canoe, but could you post links to your sources when you find them? I think that's how its supposed to work around here,

Excuse me.

Hahahaha

THHHAAANNNK... YYYOOOOOOU

so, did it crash into a lake, or into a zinc factory?

I guess the most reasonable answer is it fragmented and did both.

(you said douche-canoe... Awesome)

link 1 credible source for us please

CBS Up to the Minute..EPIC FAIL...a tiny blurb with mostly incorrect and very basic info.

Geez , I don't get it....

On an obvious side I have to say this could be debri from the asteroid that's passing..

On a scary prophetic side it could be connect to the temple of Artemis and in the long run is involved somehow with the popes replacement....

Sorry had to add two sides of a story couldn't help it.

I understand yeah, but i can't keep up, it's overwhelming... It was a Meteor not a meteor shower, and 20,000 rescuers have been activated. here is a link.

Big Meteor

The 6.9 happened earlier yesterday. You probably saw a new news article posting about it, with the published time 20 minutes ago.

Very strong earthquake in a sparsely populated Siberia area (Sakha Republic), Russia
