Meteorite Crashes in Russia

I am unable to connect to www.spaceweather.com. I wonder if it is because there is a high amount of people trying to get on that site because of what is happening today or for some other reason?

I think this just proves that russians are the best cameramen/women in the world....seriously in a moving car at a moving object and the camera barely shook at all!

Nice finds by the way.

Prior to entering the atmosphere?

What now you've lost me.
What does it matter theres all sorts of reason for twin smoke trails but the most likely in my mind is it broke into two pieces as it hit the atmosphere.
Why is that so hard to comprehend?

All those people were injured from sonic blast, which broke glass, collapsed roofs, panic, etc. Not from impact, not sure any part actually hit buildings.

Ahh but this is the problem, we're playing chinese whispers.

He replied to the other person who said no one was injured from this event.

See! He said yes there was, hundreds. And they were, indirectly by the effects of this thing blowing up in the atmosphere.

But we go back to the meteorite itself, and we can safely say that no one was injured by being hit by a fragment.

So, everyone is right, but if we keep hiding what the first person says, we can be right all night, day evening long and go no where.

The Russian Academy of Science are saying the following:

They estimate the meteor weighed around 10 tonnes.

It was travelling at speeds of at least 33'000 mph.

It detonated / shattered between 18 to 32 miles above ground.

if it were it may be a Asteroids debris field we are dealing with as opposed to one object.

If so then possible related to a larger field 2012 DA14 ect. may be? Interesting perception DreamerOracle, a way to verify somewhat would be if say Saturn or Jupiter pulled any "debris" into their orbits or where impacted and those interactions where observed, from EA*RTH space...

Here's a log of reported fireballs, it goes by year... and these are just the confirmed ones, imagine all the ones never seen or never reported. It's extremely common. Even more common are 'shooting stars' which anyone under a clear night sky can see, any night. Is it rare for one to impact or explode close enough to affect humanity? Yeah. But then again the asteroid is still there so...

It's like this

like with that bs csi shows....


they test the bullets


every time they shoot in the water or whatever bs they have


always 1 trail

it's that fast

now you see what i mean?

Notice changing diameter of D14 on spaceweather, few days ago it was 40m rock , now its 65m, in this case not only "size doesn't matter" but only composition ie. chemical/mineral matters.If made in majority of iron, then a smaller rock can make significant dammage if entered atmosphere, also much bigger rock consisting of lighter materials can burn completely. Damage in Russia is just from blast wave, there is no direct hit, people there were lucky that major part finished in nearby lake. Now, if 80km far explosion of 1m !! rock made this to a city, where shattered windows and earthquake like hit made such big number of injuries, imagine what would happen in a metropole city! This is just a warning, i hope there would be no further hits on populated area, and human kind will make 3D scanning sattellite network around earth for warning and tracking such objects with much greater precision, near and far. There are lot of examples in SF literature and movies with such "barriers" and detecting sensors.
